Why barely any votes on the 1080Ti Strix?!

Its probably because this poll is for AMD's

It is worse than the GTX 1060.

The ASUS 1080Ti Strix OC edition blows away the 480 easily, this edition of the 1080Ti is a monster. Also the RX 480 is going for $730 on Newegg and I got the 1080ti Strix edition on Amazon for $770. That is not mch difference in price for the upgrade in power over the 480

The RX 480 is around 230 dollars. Not sure where you got your facts from.

Yeah I posted that 4 months ago and at that time that was the price for a 480, the new Vega cards had not been announced yet. I'm not surprised that the price has dropped that much.
Please massdrop :))
I would have to agree with the 480 as the best choice. With the future gearing towards DX12 titles the 480 edges over the 1060. The 1060 edges over on DX11 titles. With the two being so close you probably wonder why I would choose the 480 , it has the ability to crossfire, which down the road you can slap another 480 with it, or use your current 390 with AMDs multi-GPU crossfire. Also if history repeats itself Nvidia cards just dont age well. 780ti *cough* $700 card on par with a gtx1050. Most gsync monitors are usually a couple hundred more with at least 60 less monitors then freesync choose from.

Its garbage.
GTX 1060 wins over RX480 anyday. Both are priced the same or similar and GTX1060 has way more compute power than RX480.

I try NVidia and AMD alternately every time I upgrade. I always regret AMD.

I used to use, well ATI back in 2004, AMD and the build I did in 2007, I switched to Nvidia and have never looked back. Nvidia is still so much better when it comes to GPUs, there new Ryzen series processors are the first good thing they have come out with in a long time. I'm not an Nvidia fanboy, just have used both and Nvidia has always been the better product. I have heard the same thing from many other people like @lailoken who have switched back and forth a few times and they always regret AMD
must... have.... RX480!!!!!!!!!! mmmmmmm the glory of the price to performance.... supppppuuuurrrrbbbbbbb.....

Its garbage.
Massdrop, this is a new card we can expect to see from AMD in the very near future. It would be great if we could get in early as first-round buyers.
please Massdrop make it happen :D
