I don't even think the 480 will be better in the long run, I can't help feel that GCN has peaked, while Pascal can only get better.
GCN is the easier hardware to port multi platform games, especially when using a low level api, while you have devs like Oxide that have pretty much built the engine around it.
There can't be much more they can do that devs can get out of it
I'm basing this on the 1060 being a 4 Tflop card and the 480 being a 5.7 Tflop card. I do believe the larger memory bandwidth of the 480 will help as well. But again as of right now 1060 is the winner

Don't believe that one bit really. The stock 980ti is 5.6tflops and the 480 doesn't even come close even with dx12

980Ti at 5.6tflops is at 1ghz.
The average boost in games is closer to 1.175, which puts it at 6.6tflops.

Yes, because if SLi/CF on GTX 1060/RX-480 is scam, and GTX 1070/1080 SLI is not
In other words, if you do something bad to customer, make it big.
If nVidia thinks SLi no longer works, they should no longer make SLi bridges, but instead they make new, pricier SLi bridges...
2xGTX1060 it would be real scam. They can't work in pair besides DX12 games (with explicit multi-GPU). Moreover, for only DX12 games they are anyway slower than 480.
