But according to those Steam Hardware surveys, the GTX 970 is the most used card with 5% of the total Steam users: http://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/videocard/, which proves that if well priced, people are willing to spend a little more.

And that's precisely where the 1070 comes in.

That's not to say that I disagree with you, tho. If AMD manages to create a situation similat to the one we had with the HD4000 vs GTX 200 series, we all can win. The only question is if AMD will be capable of that.

I got my hopes on amd. Mainly for laptop as I do not like desktop. polaris 11 has me itching for a laptop upgrade, not a fan of the last fx8800p. but that was 28nm, they have to at least double to triple that with 14nm. 

AMD seems very confident with what they have, but it wouldn't be the first time that they screw it, so... don't get your hopes too high.
