Undecided between the sapphire nitro rx 480, or a gtx 1070. I would use it to play games like dark souls 3, heroes and generals, red orchestra 2, doom, overwatch, and insurgency.

Future games I would be playing are battlefield one, tekken 7, and Xenoverse 2

For then extremely demanding games I could turn the settings down or the res, to 2560 x 1080, but for the most part I would want the games to look decent and run at 60-80 FPS for a year or so. I would be upgrading the rx480 to Vega when it comes out at the end of the year,with a freesync monitor, but with the 1070 id keep this monitor and gpu for probably 2 years.
 
Imo go with the 480, it's gonna keep its resell value and you can upgrade to something bigger once it comes. The 1070 is too expensive right now.
 
480 doesn't have anywhere near the power for this resolution.

My 1080 can't hold 60fps maxed in doom or tomb raider. Very close but not quite

An Nvidia 1080 on 21:9 1440?? That's not right... I am getting 90-100+ FPS on Ultra maxed out with a 1080 on the X34. Something is wrong or you have a bottleneck somewhere if you're not getting 60FPS.
