But two RX480s dont out perform one 1080, thats the thing. The 1080 is a 8.9 teraflop card! And thats on the GPU. Both 1070 and 1080 has way faster memory and memory bus than the RX480. Ashes of the singularity, in all benchmarks all the way back from the first benchmarks for dx12 last spring, has given AMD cards an advantage that you just do not see in any other game.

Theres nothing wrong in buying one of these but two will not give you 1080 or 1070 performance on average, even in 1080p. You’ll be better of with a 1070 for sure.

As i said in my first post though, im super interested in what AMD comes out with next! If its like in the past, the RX480 should be a medium performance card with faster cards (and a few slower) coming out over the next 12 months. Nvidia on the other hand begins a little higher on the performance scale with higher value cards coming out later (like the 1060 and 1050).
