GPU upgrade?

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my workstation with some extra real-estate. 

Here's the system:

Ryzen 7 1700x

Prime B-350

32gb 3600mhz CL16 ram

Rm750

And currently a Strix RX480

I am adding 3x24"1440p photo editing monitors and keeping my LG 34" 21x9.

I am concerned about my GPU and wondering what I should go to, I game a little (destiny 2 or something twice a month) I run photoshop CC and Lightroom a lot for photo editing, and I work from home as a call center manager. I'd like to run my 3 photo monitors on DP for image quality, but I can't figure out which current GPU would be best, any suggestions? And why? 

 

Here's one of my images in appreciation of the assistance.

Nvidia GPU's are more friendly with those softwares

Will a 2060 push all that real-estate without any issues and still have a little juice for assisting photoshop is my concern. I'm a single dad with three boys in the house and I'm definitely looking for the best bang for my buck. The grocery bill comandeers most of my money ?

any of the cards will be able to fill up 4 monitors if you're not gaming on all 4 of them at the same time.

at the moment between the cards i've linked the best value is to be found in the 1660 super and the vega 56
