Good budget GPU?

[Tyler Blevins]

I'm planning in building a somewhat budget gaming PC and im having a dilema over which GPU should I use. So far I'll use a Ryzen 5 3600, a Ripjaws V 16Gb (2x8) 3200Mhz, a Mushkin PILOT M.2 500Gb SSD, a ASRock B450m Pro4 to tie it all together (seller ships it with 3rd Gen Ryzen support so no need to bios flash), and finally I plan in using a Sapphire NITRO+ RX 580. However I'm still not sure if whether I should go with the RX 580 due to other great options out there in the market, my budget for the GPU is around $200 and maybe I could push it to $250-ish, nevertheless the cheaper the better. The options i've seen for around that price point are RX 590, RX 5500 XT, GTX 980, RX 5600 XT, GTX 1060, GTX 1650 Super, and the GTX 1660 Super. I'm troubled over which GPU is the best as I've been basing my results from UBM however theres many factors that affect the data in that site, please help me decide, I'm open to suggestions.

1660S is the best, it's the fastest while drawing less power than the RX cards (in fact, only the 1650S draws less). Unless you really want to save money there's no reason to go lower really.

GTX 1070 STRIX should be good

For Nvidia the GTX 1660 Super is a really good choice, otherwise the RX 5600 XT seems like a pretty good card (note that AMD drivers are really bad, my experience is limited to Terascale 2 though)

you can find a used 980 ti for like 150$, and that's ~1660S class perf.
