The RX 480 looks like it's on a similar performance level to the GTX 970 and Radeon R390 plus there is apparently an issue with it drawing too much power through the PCI-E connection, which apparently can damage the motherboard.

AMD is supposed to release a driver this week to address the issue. No word on whether that will affect performance or not.

Also, Nvidia is launching the GTX 1060 this month.
