Upgrading from a 270X

Morning all.

A friend of mine is looking to upgrade his 270X for better performance at 1080P/60. Having run a few games with Afterburner, he's maxing his GPU out in most instances whilst his CPU (FX-8230) sits at 50-70% At present, he doesn't have a G-Sync/Freesync panel so he isn't tied to either brand.

I've looked through a few reviews and, outside of a second hand 970, it looks like a choice between a 480 (8GB) or a 1060 (6GB).

What do you suggest?

Thanks.
