Should I get the RX Vega 64 or GTX 1080?

You are more likely to notice sync than those few extra fps. It is easily noticable in games and a gamer who's willing to pay for a card as expensive as the 1080 and isn't going for a proper monitor is doing it wrong. There's no excuse. Also, in what world is 8ms a fast monitor!? Mine is 5ms and that's not considered fast.

Non-reference cards in general are the way to go. I never understand people who buy these ridiculous blower reference cards. Unless you have a tiny case that requires to blow the heat out, there's no reason to even consider them, no matter the card.

Honestly, if AIB partners unlock the full potential of V56, the market should be limited to two most viable options. Buy either a Vega 56 or GTX 1080ti, depending on what performance you're looking for.

I never said that my monitor was fast, I said it that the response time is high which, at 8ms, it is. A fast monitor will have a low response time, like those TN panels with 1 or 2ms figures. But I prefer a slower IPS or VA panel than a fast TN.

Ah, I misunderstood you, sorry I also prefer IPS/VA monitors, viewing angles and colours on TN are unacceptable for me and I'm not playing competitive fighting games or shooters, so I don't need 1ms. 5ms with IPS with FreeSync and 75Hz works just fine for my needs
