This is a comparison I made for myself a few months ago, in Romania.
As you can see the B580 is fairly competitive considering the price.
I looked on the site pcgarage.ro exclusively, though you can usually get better deals on smaller eshops that take more time to deliver. (If you want to check for yourself use the filters not the search. The search on their site is crap.)
Also, considering the intent of both AMD and NVIDIA is to release puny GPU's with 4 and 8 GB of VRAM, intel is very relevant here.
If the price of those dogshit GPU's comes up to anything close to 1600 RON as the B580 is, the B580 will outperform them in probably every conceivable way, bar reputation.
Also, older gen cards exist. Intel can beat those sometimes. I know people that were looking to buy second hand in my area but ended up buying a new Arc card. They're decent options if the budget is tight and you get something that you know hasn't been abused in some way (I'm looking at you smokers and vapers haha)
