I picked up at monday an ASUS ROG STRIX O8GB RX 480. Currently, i only tested Fallout 4, Battlefield 3, Call Of Duty 2 (but it doesn't require a lot of power lol).

The card idling stays at 30°c, not bad, and in intensive movement (playing, heavy zones on Fallout 4 like the Diamond City) the card stays at solid 55°c-60°c, really impressive, also, i control the fans on it.

I'm planning to get the BF1 in this week, i didn't tested any DX12 game (yet). About the RX 480 DX 12 vs GTX 1060 DX 11 you can see some videos online, for example Joker videos, just tip rx 480 BUT search videos listed on december, AMD did a really good job that month with drivers and changed the history.

Now: If money isn't problem, i will considerer picking a GTX...

Reason to buy GTX 1060: Well, i like nvidia cards, when it was released, it beats the RX 480 8GB, consume "less" power. Today the history change, see "RX 480 why to buy" down below

Reson not to buy GTX 1060: Well, its head to head against the RX 480, its more expensive, depends each consumer, for me, i care the money, 5-7fps in games didn't impact in me to buy the expensive one.

Reason to buy RX 480 8GB.

Cheaper.
DX12 Optimization.
Drivers -something very important in graphics-
FreeSync (Cheaper)

Reason not to buy rx 480:
Well, i own the RX 480, meanwhile isn't faster as the GTX 1060 does with DX11, i'm really happy with it.

I'm not a fanboy o nothing related. Today, for the money, RX 480 8GB do the job plenty fine @ 1080p.

Atte: Owner of one of these. (And previous owner of GTX 1070 ^^)

Now: If money isn't problem, i will considerer picking a GTX 1070. Beast for 1080p i guarrante, but in some months it will be replaced with another card for same or less money so, its your call.
