Yes, the GTX1060 6GB is the only really viable option. The 3GB version is also available, and it's a slightly slower card but still yards ahead of an R9 380, but I wouldn't bother with it unless the budget was strictly limited.

At this stage a comparable Nvidia card would be something roughly between the GTX1050 - GTX1050Ti.
