You don't need to take the risk.
Go with the Geforce. Plus save cash on the power bill.
One thing to keep in mind is that... As Power Supply's age, their maximum wattage, efficiency rating etc' decline. So even if it worked fine today, in a year it may not.

Considering he is going from a Geforce 600 series GPU from 2012...
The Geforce 1080 is the superior choice over Vega 64. And this is coming from someone who only buys AMD.

Also what games are you even looking to play on PC that you can't already play on your PS4?. If it's games from 5 or more years ago, you won't need a 1080 at all. |
1440P is not demanding enough to warrant the need for a Geforce 1080Ti.
A 1070 is still overkill for 1080P.
