It sucks so bad that a Polaris 10/Radeon 490 won't even beat a Geforce 1070, let alone a 1080.

So stupid of AMD to once again ignore the high-end. Always making the same mistake.

And I'm outraged since I have to wait until 2017 before I can upgrade from my R9 290.

But, what if 490X was within 5% of the 1070 and launched at $299, for example?

Of course, you wouldn't upgrade since the jump from your 290 wouldn't be as big, but how would react the market?
