The 580 is a great 1080p card. Do you not need any storage?

Thank you :)

What's the performance difference between the 1660 and the 580?

And I've already got the storage :)

The 1660 ti would probably give you another 30-40% performance boost.

If you can afford it, I'd definitely go that route- but if you are trying to save the 580 is an awesome card for the price-point.

 

If you're looking at changing the motherboard again, stay far away from A320 boards, they're pretty bad.
