What abt 1070?

There's a pretty good jump there, but an RX 480 is no slouch. The smart move would be to sit on the 480 and wait for the 11 series announcement to drive Pascal prices down a bit. The 480 will hold its value because there are still a few desperate GPU miners out there waiting for Ethereum to rebound.

Upgrading from a 480 to a 1060 is just pointless.

 

Wait until the next gen gets released.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.
