to bad that 2 rx 480s gonna beat the 1080 now you should of waited lol

ONLY in titles that support CF(AND with graphics tuned down), not that many recent games really do, DX12 has good support for it, but the devs have to add that support in. Rather have One beefy card vs 2 when you'd be guaranteed to use the full power of your card 100% of the time, instead of hoping you could use the dual setup and miss out in titles. 

ALSO, the proof of being better vs the 1080 with the Ashes games, they used Low/Med graphics on TWO 480's vs the 1080 running at High/Max.

=============================

Instead of $500 for dual 480, just drop $380 or so on a single 1070 and save the rest for a good ssd or something









agreed.  A single 1070 seems to be the best dollar for dollar performance for a single card at this point.
