_____________________________UPDATE_______________________________

Ok people. Give me some GCN 1st-gen vs Maxwell DX-12/Vulkan benchmarks and I will update this with new analysis and everything. Remember it has to be GCN 1st-gen vs Maxwell. This isn't an NVIDIA vs AMD maximum performance dick-measuring comparison but more of a "EFFICIENCY" comparison between the GPU architectures of PS4/XBone and NX current rumored one, especifically focused in actual performance vs claimed teraflop throughput. Since the NX rumor mill is now pointing more towards Pascal, I'll accept GCN 1st-gen vs Pascal benchmarks too.

I don't know why you think that GPUs inside PS4 and XOne are GCN 1st gen. PS4's GPU (due to number of ACEs) looks like 290X/390X cut in half with 2CUs disabled and XOnes is like 7790/260X with 2 CUs disabled (or 360)...they are all 2nd gen GCN.

So you already have pretty good benchmark for 2nd Gen GCN vs Maxwell - 390X vs 980Ti:

DX12 are Ashes and Hitman.

Now, it is hardly even debatable that nVidia generally has more efficient architectures (looking at 1070@150W vs 480@150W is pretty much all that is needed), it's just that difference when it's DX12 or Vulkan (which is best we can hope for to see in terms of benchmarks) is not as big as DX11 tests where nVidia usually smokes AMD.
