Like:

1st ever time using an AMD card...love the black levels (picking up details in shadows and dark scenes that were never visible with the 1080) and PQ (appears cleaner,and yet more detail at the same time), and control over just about every aspect of PQ.

Using Wattman (auto overclock), the card is happy and stable at 2130. About 30% faster that my overclocked 1080 strix (render times).

Dislike:

Control over just about every aspect of PQ (for us types...oh well, even more obsessing)

Software not as intuitive as Nvidia.

Seems to throttle at a lower threashold (nivida on 23p, seems to be about 39 vs 32 ms)

HDR is better on Nividia because of the API links in Madvr (I assume) being able to tell the display its a Bt2020 signal.

Verdict - 1080 up on ebay over the next few days, but still have lots more testing and tuning to do.
