So ever since I got this card for Christmas I did not know if it was very good or not as I follow Nvidia not AMD so I came here for some help but let me start with my PC specs, I do understand this is a "high end" grapics card and does vr ready all of that stuff

Cpu: i5 4460
Memory: 6gb DDR3 (Looking to upgrade)
Monitor: Acer K222HQL 21.5" LED DVI Monitor (I think??)
Motherboard: I can not find but here is what my it will be in m32ad-uk003s ASUS pc
Storage: HDD 1TB also sandisk SSD 120gb

Also if you could give me advice on what to upgrade next thanks.
Also one thing I just can not find is a side panel so I can see my gpu etc

What are you talking about? 1060 and RX480 are practically same shit performance-wise and other stuff you mentioned is negligible especially since RX480 he has already has non-stock cooler.

It would be a literal waste of money to change it to 1060.

It would be a good upgrade since the RX480 is more power consuming and is more loud due to the fans having to spin harder to keep the card cool where as the gtx1060 is made to be less power consuming and silent and give lots of performance and also more cool.
