Go with the 1080, I'm not sure if your current PSU will be able to maintain the power draw and I'm not sure if your case has enough ventilation either ...

It's a load of bullshit having to wait for the games to catch up to the hardware plus 1080 has a moderate amount of overclocking headroom too if you want more performance for the future ...

For me I'll be looking for a 1080 Ti or maybe go with Volta ...

The PSU is really good (I think), Silverstone rated 80+ Gold.

Geforce 1080 is a no brainer. It's more energy efficient. Unless of course there is an AMD-specific feature you want?

A high-quality 500w PSU could handle Vega just fine though. I must stress the *high quality* aspect.
However, you may not be running your PSU at it's optimal efficiency curve in such scenario's.

I must ask though... What resolution display you running? Might be better to drop down to a Geforce 1070 instead if it's only 1080P.

Mainly on 1080p-1440p 60hz displays, I got a Oculus Rift as well, so no 4K or 120fps etc. I'd get a 1070 if I could find it cheap, but they're as expensive as the 1080 I'm looking to get. (KFA2 Exoc)
