Here's a very recent review of both an AiB RX 480 and a GTX 1060 from HardOCP using the latest drivers.
It covers both stock and overclocked speeds. The Gigabyte RX 480 seems to have issues maintaining it's stock clock speed unless you raised the power target. Also, it's a shame they didn't test the power draw when overclocked

There were some technical victories between the video cards. In Battlefield 1, Fallout 4, Gears of War 4, and The Witcher 3 the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X edged out the lead overall slightly. When we say slightly, it was slight, averages ranged from 3% faster to 10% faster. Then there were games that the GIGABYTE Radeon RX 480 G1 GAMING edged out on performance. It was faster in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and DOOM.
When we introduced overclocking both video cards improved performance by a noticeable amount. Overall we can see that the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X actually gained more performance than the GIGABYTE RX 480 G1 GAMING with its overclock, in games. However, when comparing between them we still get the same results we had when not overclocked.
