^It's funny, LinusTechTips on Youtube has the RX 480 beating the 1060 in price/performance in every game they tested, which is contrary to TechPowerUp's price/performance chart that JEMC posted above:

Not sure what is causing the discrepancy. Could be Linus used the cheaper 4GB 480 for their tests, could be down to the silicon lottery, could be the games that Linus tested (though they were all DX11 games so I don't think that's it). 

Because of which games they pick.

Techpowerup picked alot of games that favor nvidia, or older DX11 games.

LinusTechTips probably used newer games, or more DX12 ones.
