Are there any direct comparisons to a 1080 STRIX with the "old" memory? Its hard to tell how much of the difference to a stock 1080 is from it just being a Strix OC with higher clocks, or the new memory.

How is 8GB of VRAM noaways with 4K monitors? Is overkill or the contrary?

I have a 1080 with a 4k G-Sync monitor and wanted to know if 8GB could be a bottleneck in some games.

Shouldn't be as current consoles and the new one X all have 8GB or less available for graphics.

I would say 8GB is a healthy amount for 4K; definitely not overkill. On a 4GB GPU, it isn't hard to run out of memory on 2K, sometimes even 1080p depending on the game.

Shouldn't be as current consoles and the new one X all have 8GB or less available for graphics.
Not a completely relevant point. Consoles are more fine-tuned for their hardware and can handle data more efficiently. This is why PCs need more powerful hardware to render the same thing. Though, this is becoming less true than it used to be. Back before the current-gen consoles, games were a lot more refined than they are today, because they needed to be.
