A few weeks ago I replaced my trusty and reliable GTX960 with a used RX5600XT off KIjiji. The improvment in various benchmarks was massive, but I instantly had buyer's remorse, mostly due (I think) to AMD's drivers causing a few unprecedented issues with my computer. I yanked the card out, returned it to the seller (with the assurance that he nor the card were the problem, the problem was with ME) and purchased a GTX1080 on this forum.
Anyway, the GTX1080 finally came in today, and I ran my gamut of benchmarks (3DMark's Timespy, VRMard, and various Unigine Superposition benchmarks). It turns out the GTX1080 is a small improvement over the RX5600XT. Yes, there's a little more aggressive overclock on my CPU now which affects the scores somewhat, but I think the difference is greater than just a 400Mhz CPU bump. Anyway, bench results below (with the GTX960 thrown in just because)
