RX 580, RX 5500, GTX 1650 or GTX 1660 for entry build

B14nnc4

Hey guys, I need your help with a value build. I have chosen the following components:

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor 
Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard 
Memory: Team T-FORCE VULCAN Z 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory 
Video Card: MSI Radeon RX 580 8 GB ARMOR OC Video Card  
Power Supply: Corsair CXM 750 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply  ($155.52 @ Amazon Australia) 
 

So, what do u guys think, I'm not sure which GPU I should get as they are all pretty much similar. These were the options RX 580, RX 5500, GTX 1650 or GTX 1660.

 

I'm also looking for suggestions on which brands to get.

 

Thanks

1660 > 580/5500XT > 1650, so if they're all about the same price, get the 1660.

the 200-250 dollar market right now really is a lost cause, one gets almost the same performance you could get in 2016, hopefully in January things improve
