I jumped onto Polaris as I got tired of waiting for Vega.... And just couldn't stand dealing with Cedar.
Hoping Navi is enough of a jump over Polaris to warrant a purchase... As Vega wasn't it.
Otherwise I might actually do the unthinkable. Make a wander over to the green side. (Something I haven't done in years.)

Still, we should get Navi in about 6-9 months, not to much longer to wait with only a Polaris based card.

There is also a few things being floated around that AMD may take a Threadripper approach with Navi, where AMD uses it "fabric" to stitch together a heap of smaller, cheaper to manufacture chips... Which could mean some big things as far as price/performance is concerned and should result in less re-badging of old crap.

To break the bad news to you Navi probably isn't until 2019. What we're most likely going to get in 2018 is Vega 20 which is Vega 10 ported to 7nm ...
