Who is 'they' here? The average person? Why does this keep being brought up? Does the average person care about the difference between a GTX660Ti and a 1080Ti? Nope. Yet I wouldn't ever dream of saying that the difference isn't game-changing, especially here on a hardware enthusiast board.

If Vega is 'only' 1080 level its going to have be striking in some other way, price or some special new feature.
The average person isnt buying Vega until the end of year when it comes included on the CPU in some kind of presumably cut down version. They'll get it as an all in one/laptop, the average person is not opening up their PC.

My aspirations dont go further then 1080p, that seems to be the minority here but I want 200fps or more as an ideal, all these other factors discussed seem to relate to smoothing out less then 100 fps and I dont even want that. I think its a latency issue because below 100fps means the picture is more out of sync with the server's calculations and for multiplayer you dont ever want to be behind not if you just got the top card for sure. If theres some other choice I can decide later but 4k is cutting edge in a different direction for me I guess, from what people say I think I'd want to skip from 1080p straight to 4k and thats not yet viable.

This vid seemed relevant to cutting edge factors and how it disseminates across the range of components and software standards we use, its very lumpy at present which means slower progress sadly. I do hope Vega moves along Vulkan and open standards, if it fails to do anything new at all that'd be most disappointing

HDR in VR then VR will be booming!!

Doesn't AMD have something in the reLive drivers that competes with/if not even better shadowplay? I'm not into recording much so I can't remember what it's called.
 
Got told today i'd be getting a work bonus at the end of the month. I didn't think I was eligible as I hadn't been there long enough.

Guess what the bonus will be going on? :D
