| JEMC said: Looking at the Vega64 reviews, the answer to the question of the OP seems to be that, given that the performance of both is roughly similar, go for the cheaper one. So, if the 1080 is still the cheaper option, go for it. |
AMD is much cheaper if you consider the price of the monitor. If you're so serious about gaming that you invest is such an expensive card, you can't justify not buying a FreeSync/G-Sync monitor with a high refresh rate. FreeSync monitors are MUCH cheaper, especially if someone is interested in the extra value packs AMD offers, which includes $200 off of a sweet 34" 1440p Ultrawide Samsung FreeSync monitor (100 Hz I believe). nVidia can't come close to that offer.
Also, Ultrawide Masterrace!
Still, I'm keeping my hopes up for non-reference Vega 56 shipping with unlocked BIOS, or people creating a solution for this 
56 can be a legendary card.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
