So i'm looking to upgrade from my 960, and those 3 are the current candidates. I've got the MSI Ventus 1660s for 243$, the Gigabyte 5600xt for 255$ and the EVGA SC 2060 for 299$. I'm looking to keep it for around 5-6 years (or as far as it can go), i'm currently gaming at 768p so i know its a little overkill, but i really want it to last for more than 2 or 3 years, and at least i can crank up the settings to compensate. I'd really like to stay with NVIDIA because they just look more solid and stable overall, the BIOS upgrade on the 5600xt may have paired up the performance to the 2060 for 50$ less, but i've seen some videos where the card is just more buggy and tends to cause more problems overall, what do you think about it?
On the other hand i'm running an EVGA 500BR PSU, it should be enough to handle any of these right? Pairing the GPU with a R5 3600 and 16GB of ram.

The rtx 2060 is the winner between these 3 and it will be a good pair for your 3600,but wouldnt it be better if you saved up 100$ more and bought a 3060Ti for 400$?
I wish i could but many GPU's in my country are not available especially the series 30, the few that are here are extremely overpriced, and i'd already be overstretching with the 299$ mark
