you sure 980ti is better?
480 is the newer gen right?
i agree completely for the performance per money ;)

The tests I've seen place the 1060 just above the 980ti, and the RX 480 just under it. That is with games that are on the market right now, future games might favour the 480 due to it having better DX12 support.
And yes, the 480 is a newer gen card, but it's a a lower mid-range card of this generation of graphics cards (none of the low-end cards of the current generation has been released yet, but they're on their way), while the 980ti was the upper end of the last generation.

i saw 1060 vs 480 and they were very close. mostly in favor of 1060 but nothing conclusive in my opinion.
when the scale goes to a few thousands (i have no idea what the units were, arbitrary i guess) and the diff is a few tens i consider it the same (or a measuring error).
i read this
and i forgot, the 1060 is much better with power consumption. which is an issue for low end PSU and for heat generation ;)
edit: damn, the op asked about 1070, and i though about 1060.
all the time, not your typo

In the tests I've seen, the 1060 wins over the RX 480 by a small margin in most games, offering slightly better performance. Hitman is one of the games where the 480 shines. But while the 1060 is slightly more powerful than the 480, it's also slightly more expensive. Both cards look like they offer good value in terms of performance per money.

money wise? go with AMD480
if not, got with 1070, strongest. currently 980 is a waste of money imo
maybe you can find a price cut or something to make it worth it

If you don't want to pay much go with 480. If you want performance, go with 1070.
Here's a couple of benchmarks to help you make a decision.

So NOBODY asked OP what was his preferred resolution to play, his PC components (to know if it could be bottlenecked), neither no one mentioned Vulkan and Dx12, nor the fact that W10 would provide a better mixture or "sharing" of vgas. Also, devs usually go with the paying ads company, in the past and maybe present it always was nvidia's, so we saw their logo in pretty much every game except a very few ones. Now, with the new api and tech, things may or may not change.. we'll see.. Maybe this time devs go with the better tech, proven already in your beloved DOOM.
Want to stick with expensive and not quite proved performance? go nvidia
Want a very competitive priced card that can also throw a punch? go amd. BUT I suggest you not to buy reference, for neither brand, pick a custom one you'll thank me later.
Good luck bud :)

The 480 is a good deal at the MSRP of $240 (8g model) IF you can find it for that price. Every listing on Amazon is $300 or higher and everywhere that is listing it for the $240 price is out of stock.

If you want maximum power now, can afford paying an extra, and will keep it only 1 year at most, GTX 1070.
If you can cope with slightly less power now, want to pay a bit less, and want a more future-proof card, Rx 480.
But, before choosing, we should know the rest of your configuration: CPU, amount of RAM, and most importantly, your power supply.

if u don't have budget problem go with 1070 for 2K gaming.
