Just a note in an article. I've seen many similar notes regarding RX580 vs GTX 1060. Equivalent performance. Comes down to price.

AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB
The best card for mainstream gaming right now
The RX 580 8GB trades blows with the GTX 1060 6GB, [with RX580] typically winning by a few percent in performance .. the midrange [GPU] category is largely determined by local pricing, with the US market currently favoring the RX 580
Right now today, the cheapest on Newegg USA is $170 (after rebate). It includes 2 free games one just released another due in a month or so. Being new, their nominal total price is roughly $100 (I got them with my recent RX580 purchase). Of course, on games, beauty is in the eye of the beholder -- they are only worth $100 to some gamers.
