gtx 1060 6gb, stock, and rx 580 OC. difference is that rx 580 comes cheaper. also i have a 500w bronze 80+ power supply. So is that enough for both of them?

You're on the limits with a 580 with that old seasonic to be honest.

The 1060 may be the safer choice.

That said ,I do think you'll be ok with the 580 but would suggest a psu replacement somewhere down the line.

Bear in mind , most (if not all) 580 have a 8 pin power connector.

I believe your psu only has a pair of 6 pins ?

If I'm right you are going to need a twin 6 pin to 8 pin adapter.
