Since I've read many posts that actually caused me even more dilemmas (some say that FSX is mostly CPU intensive, others that it works much better with Nvidia than AMD cards and finally that multiple monitors require considerably more VRAM) I'd like to ask for some help with choosing the best-matching (price/performance) GPU for the following configuration:
  • Configuration: 3xSamsung P2450 24" Full HD, Intel I7-4770, 16GB RAM, Crucial MX500 SSD, Seasonic SS-520GB 520W
  • Shortlisted graphic cards: GTX1060 6GB, GTX1660 6GB, RX570 8GB, RX580 8GB
My first choice is GTX1060 6GB, or if more VRAM is needed RX570 8GB, as those those two are the most budget-friendly. If however those cards won't be sufficient, or I can get significantly better results with other cards (even the ones not listed), I'm open to any suggestions. I'm open to even more expensive cards, as long as it won't be overkill to my configuration.

Many thanks

The best out of all 4 of them is the GTX 1660.
2GB more of Vram wont do much (im talking about rx 570 8gb and rx 580 8gb) since they are slower than the gtx 1660.
