Is that a pricing error, or do I see an RX 480 for well under £200 ath the price it should have originally launched at? Damn... so tempting. I might actually buy it lol. As a gift for someone...
 
Anyone know what the Asus Dual cooler is like? Tempted to upgrade my blower 7950 purely for noise reasons (I only really play Total Warhammer and probably won't play much else until Squadron 42 finally lands).

Yes Vega 10 around 1080 Ti price and Vega 11 around 1070 price.

I don't think this kind of pricing makes any sense at all. It also makes no sense for AMD to release 2 cards with such a big gap in performance between them. Best case scenario, in my opinion of course, which could totally be wrong, is 2 cards which are around 1070 and 1080 ish performance and pricing pretty close to those of the NVidia cards.
 
Vega will compete with 1080 cards I think and this 480 is vs 1060 etc. 28th there is details maybe but I reckon all these cards will go alongside each other for the next year at least
