Due to current situation in my region rx 5500xt 4GB is $20 cheaper than 1650 super.

On the another hand 1660 super will cost $75 more than 5500xt.

 

In short:

Rx 5500xt 4GB : $210

1650 super: $230

Rx 5500xt 8GB : $265

1660 super: $285 

2060 : $385

 

As for casual gaming ( apex, R6 siege , tomb raider, ghost recon, warzone ) which one should I get? I do 1080p gaming on a 75hz monitor. Currently use 1050ti 4GB 

 

I don't think there are any chances of price drop 

Gonna buy it the day after tomorrow !!

Probably go for the 5500XT due to it having a few more features in the drivers like image sharpening/gpu chill

 

performance should be the same

 

are cheaper used RX 470-580/590 8GB cards not an option? it has basically the same performance as well.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

I don't think you should go to a mere 5500XT as an upgrade then, you should save for that 1660 super.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

If you are not satisfied with the performance which I agree with @Fasauceome that a 5500xt won't be that much of an improvement 

But if you are in a dire need to upgrade I recommend the 1650 super overthe 5500xt 8 gig

While they perform about the same and true the 5500xt has a wider memory buffer 

I still recommend the 1650 super because you get the nvec encoder 

And a more robust driver support 

And it is more efficient than the 5500xt

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

The upgrade GPUs are 50-60% faster, but mostly I'd look out for an 8GB polaris card so you can at least double your VRAM

 

but ya if it's not too pressing wait until you can get like a 5600 XT.
