this is a great panel if your going vega, but if your doing that your doing it wrong already, imo

if i were in the market now i would probably go 1080 ti and this monitor, with decently high settings it will lock in at least 120 fps stable, which i would lock in and not worry about adaptive sync.
with this monitor and vega 64 you'll most likely end up with sup 100 fps in games that aren't dota/lol/overwatch, but who knows with driver improvements. Depending on where vega price goes i would most likely still go green.
btw i have a 1080 ti and a 60 hz 4k free-sync monitor(27 inch). Its nice and i don't mind scaling issues that much, but if i were to do it again i would go with a large 1440p ultra-wide as per the recommendation of most users who've tried such a screen
search google for "1440p 144hz freesync 32" ips" I would look around and see whats out there, i don't think this a compelling price. though i haven't compared specs or reviews so don't take my word for it

By the same logic, if you liquid cool 1080 it'll eat any Vega for breakfast lol.

I actually have a Fury X and the curved LG 34UC88, so 3440x1440 with 75Hz (freesync only). I wanted Vega64 to be between 450-500 and I would have added an EK waterblock and backplate. Historically, AMD always improves performance through their drivers and there are still a few disabled features on Vega. It seems like the drivers are too underdeveloped at launch and the power usage isnt justified vs a 1080 or 1080Ti.
Which 1080Ti do you have? I may upgrade to one with an EK waterblock and wait for the Asus RoG PG35VQ. Ideally, the founders edition would have been my choice but those are out of stock everywhere.

If you can find a Vega at MSRP then it's a good deal. They(Vega) still don't come close to competing with the 1080ti though. I agree that G-sync monitors are expensive though.
