Uh no. It has 100W TDP less which is amazing for the same performance. You can use a less powerful PSU and still get a more powerful GPU when compared to the 980 ti. It also has more VRAM by 2GB. That alone is impressive considering many people bought the 980 ti to use in multi-monitor setups. Did I mention it overclocks better than a 980 Ti in most cases?
Here is the 1070 beating up the 980 ti in a 15 game average FPS chart.

heh make me some Sushi.
*i got the full warranty too considering my card was new. not to mention evga support would send me a 1080 if my card broke right this second.
power draw is irrelevant considering anyone buying either card is an enthusiast. at the end of the year it's pennies on the dollar. i don't see a notable difference between the two cards in that chart either. 10 more fps at the default entry resolution, 7 at what should be standard, and what could be seen as a margin of error for those with an actual enthusiast monitor. are you arguing better at high resolutions or multiple monitor setups? because the higher you go in pixel count for an enthusiast card the less impressive it looks for costing more.
vram is moot point. even at 4k it was landing 44fps instead of 40 which still isn't playable. neither of those cards are 4k cards. and of course they clock higher, the 1080 clocks to 2000 standard, but ppc is lower. both cards at 2,000 and you'd find the 980ti winning by a landslide.
tl;dr 980ti is more than sufficient and not getting a 1080/pascal titan/waiting for the 1080ti was a giant mistake.
still cannot believe you compared overclocking between different architectures though lmao
