.... but they are better performing


...but is the performance worth the value?
to me no.
with the ryzen vs. kaby lake, it ain't looking so good.
vega hopefully shoots nvidia's 10xx line up out of the water when it's finally out too.

Ugh you a clearly an AMD fan boy.
Gtx 1060 and rx480 pretty much performs the same an has similar prices. The only reason is a bit more attractive is you can crossfire it. So clearly not overpriced.
As for kaby lake vs ryzen. Intel will still have the upper hand with higher ipc which is the true factor for gaming.

Not saying one is better than an the other. But they both have their weak points.

Keep your 390 for now. Would be a very minor upgrade.
What would your budget be whenever the vega releases?

you mean price?


the thing is if you compare 2 evenly priced cards then they perform the same

or you spend more and get more.....

its up to you, but saying they are over priced doesnt make sense because they dont have any comparisons that are cheaper (with equal performance)
