580 is a bit faster than a gtx 10606gb. 

In 2016 or newer games, it is. In 2015 and older games, the 1060 is faster

Im looking to buy a new gpu. I have a corsair air 240 so i need the card to fit, i only play at 1080p and im looking at the Rx 580 8Gb as it is within my budget. Is it worth it or should i look to nvidia?

Very worth, and extra 2gb vram might help with futureproofnesss, although the 580 will by most likely obsolete by the time more than 6gb is normally used.

both will do 1080p 60 fps in most games. 

Yeah, the unless you play Watch_dogs 2 and Ghost Recon Wildlands. In which case, you would need a 1080 xD

I'm rolling with 2 RX 460's Crossfired, But yes i would say a 580 is faster then a 1060, But keep in mind Nvidias software is amazing, I find AMD's lacking.

(If you even care about that sorda thing)

Software as in drivers or features?  AMD drivers will get updates for at least 5 years, but NVIDIA has stuff like Shadowplay and Ansel. 

My 9-year old HD 4560 just stopped getting driver updates in 2015. (I think it is a 4560, I don't remember the exact SKU but it starts with a 4. )

it's within margin enough for my hatred for nvidia's GTX1060 naming scheme to recommend 580 by default :D

Never forget Crysis 3 and Deus Ex Mankind Divided. 

Crysis? I am 99% sure that you can use high settings and still get 60FPS with an RX 580... Deus Ex is not well optimized tho...

The RX 580 is better than the 1060 in Battlefield 1

580 also has more vram tho which leaves me to generally recommend the 580 :)

And FreeSync and Crossfire ;) The 580 is better, but I do recommend the 1060 if someone plays a lot of GTA V or older games

Team red has Ryzen to the challenge, eh.

On a budget? The Pulse is pretty good.

 

Wanna spend a bit more? Strix, nitro, or gaming x if you want a red GPU.

I knew I was forgetting the GTR :P 

 

Aorus is worse than the high end ones tho, it's a decent budget one tho.

 

You forgot the pulse btw. :)

My PowerHeater says no, it's 4gb vram but it would dip below 30 maxed out some times

GTA 5...sigh...what's the difference? 15fps at 1080p ultra 4xmsaa? I don't understand how that's possible...

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...
