So I'm just starting out with PC builds and I was thinking about getting the EVGA GX 1060 SC with 6GB of GPU memory (hopefully it's in stock before my three months are over). Anyway, I was wondering if overclocking the GPU would also affect the CPU temperature? Honestly, I don't want to overclock the CPU because I prefer using a stock fan. But I do want to try overclocking the GPU without causing the CPU to get too hot.

Not much, just when your situation prevents the GPU OC from handling extra heat, which usually indicates potential overheating issues beforehand.
