A decent price on a decent mid-range video card. Only 4GB, but it should do the trick for most 1080p gaming.
Two free games + 3 month Xbox Game Pass deal is still running, which makes it a better deal.

If it's on par with a 580 similar performance, then no upgrade.
What about a GTX 670? Or should I wait for the 5700 xt to drop in pricing
NVIDIA and AMD next-gen will start dropping from July-August at this stage, so it might be worth waiting until later in the year, as you'll likely get hardware raytracing as well as much improved performance for the same money.
@jasswolf: Yeah fair call thanks man
AMD projected this will launch big Navi end of the year, not 3Q.
I think this GPU would be classed more low-end rather than mid-range. Sure it can still play a lot of titles well but I think 1660ti and 5600XT are the mid-range nowadays.
you can get the 8gb version for $330 from another vendor, IJK i think.
PSA - It's almost nothing, but still worth noting there is a slight PCIE 3.0 bottle neck for this card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EDJXISD6RY
Worth upgrading from a GTX 970?
