Which GPU to pair with 6700k? 1660 Ti or RX 6600?

My new second-hand rig has an MSI 1060 (3GB) in it. I just put a 6700k into this thing and was wondering what a good GPU upgrade to pair with it would be for 1080/1440 gaming as well as photo editing (Using Capture One and Photoshop CS5). In particular, I was looking at the 1660 Ti vs the RX 6600 (though I'm open to other recos) I'm looking at the between $300-$400 CAD price point. Right now, MemoryExpress has the Asus 1660 Ti (6GB)  for $309 CAD and the Gigabyte RX 6600 (8GB) for $319 CAD. Right now I'm leaning towards the RX 6600 as it's the newer card and seems to perform better on user benchmarks. Which one, if either, would make more sense?
