1080, Vega, or even Volta?

If you ask me, just get a 1080 now. Vega is unlikely to have a huge perf/$ advantage over Pascal, at best you might seem something like a Vega part the same price as the 1080 with 10% better performance. You almost never wait for new GPUs, the exception is when architectures expected to have huge perf/$ drops are about to happen (Polaris and Pascal for example, back in April and May 2016 people were recommending to wait), Vega isn't the case. Volta is too far out to be worth waiting for.

Nothing is confirmed ATM.

I mean waiting  a week or two for a $500 part seems like a good bet to me. It's like right here.

I don't think this is entirely accurate. The 1070 is performing as good, or better, than a 980 ti. And there's nothing in the Maxwell architecture that can match a 1080 in performance.

It's rough. 

 

Roughly the 760 performs like a 950 

roughly the 770 is a 960 which is a 1050

roughly the 780ti is like a 970 which is a 1060 6g

 

i never watched those benchmarks so I'm pulling this out of my ass

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

Well at least you're honest about it :)

If you have 630 for a 1080 just spend 700 on 1080 Ti, it'll be so much worth it.

exactly what i did haha and i am glad i did it, extra 100aud :) but the price difference is minimal for performance gain.
