Vega beats your 1080 for less. Your 1080 is arse I guess then

Oh brother. We had this discussion already. Not certain this was even true at launch.

You are comparing the RX VEGA 64/LIQUID vs GTX 1080 in terms of performance. Then using a RX VEGA 64/AIR vs GTX 1080 for the cost comparison.

Launch Benchmarks:
Little Pascal is 3%-5% faster than the RX VEGA 64/Air. Now the RX VEGA 64/Liquid is 3-5% faster than a GTX 1080. However the GTX 1080 is much more efficient. Therefore offering a higher OC ceiling, despite being released 1.5yrs prior to the RX VEGA launch.
