I'm quite torn between the 2 for my GPU upgrade coming from a GTX 750Ti. My current specs are:

i5-4460
GTX 750Ti
Asus B85 Pro Gamer
4x4GB G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3
Seasonic M12ii 520w 80+ Bronze
120GB UV400 SSD
2x1TB Seagate HDD 7.2k RPM
LG 25UM58 - 2560x1080p Resolution. No freesync. :(

I'm only using this setup for gaming, basically online gaming.

Guild Wars 2
Revelation Online
Blade and Soul
and the upcoming MMOs.

I have little to few knowledge on GPU technology and what would be the best for my setup. These MMOs are kinda demanding so I'm targetting a stronger GPU for this upgrade. Please help me out. I don't have the luxury to get upgrades most of the time so I'm looking for longetivity + performance + bang for the buck. Your advices would be very much appreciated.

Watch this, a comparison of the RX 580 vs GTX 1060 9gbps versions .. Then decide for yourself whichever games you play :)

Shame you don't have freesync already otherwise it would be such an easy decision, but tbh you can't really go wrong with either card!

I have the Sapphire Nitro+ OC 8GB RX 580 Limited Edition, and I could not be happier with it personally :D
