Q: 'Should I get the GTX 1070 or GTX 1080?'

 

A: Wait for Vega.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

After what I saw with the RX 480, I don't think it's worth the wait. Unless AMD doesn't do something, they will never beat nvidia.

After all we all got sucked into this "next gen GPU " campaign thingy.

If not for youtube I would not buy any sort of HIGH END PC PARTs. 

Look at me now... Ah... 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

Yeah, just making fun of all the 'wait for the RX 480' answers (that I was admittedly part of).

 

Jesus, I really hope Vega delivers...

Wait, let me ask , does VEGA card gonna use the same architecture as Polaris???

Or it is the same architecture, just it is the HIGH END version of it?

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

They will.  They will simply take 2 490s and make them do this.

 

 

What you've been imaging to come out   VS   what actually came out.

Same architecture, different GPU. R9 490/X will likely have either GDDR5 or GDDR5X, while the Fury successor will likely use HBM2.

 

All I'm saying is that if AMD continues this performance trend for Vega, they'll be in trouble.

Okay.. I see.

Within an hour all the reviews gonna pouring in. 

Then we see which one is the more objective one.

You all do realize that the RX480 is meant as an entry/mid-tier level GPU and not for the high end enthusiast
