The RX 480 was never advertised as the flagship product. By price and number of shaders that would still be clearly the Fury X, which I wanted to see performing in Hashcat, but then the heat/power/throttling problem Epixoip mentioned would still throw the card down under heavy hashing pressure.
By what I read the coming up Vega chip has a redesigned GCN, which looks promising in the details. Maybe AMD has something in the box there. But hardly to believe it would come anywhere near the also upcoming 1080Ti. I'm guessing somewhere between the 1070 and 1080, closer to the latter one. Maybe it will be competitive in price/performance ratio with a modest power consumption.
