These two cards are fighting in two different leagues as GTX 1080 is a high end, high performance product, while the Radeon RX 480 is affordable card which sells for $199 for 4GB version and $239 for the 8GB flavour. Overclockers had enough RX 480, Polaris 10 based cards to make Radeon of Iron Thrones complete with a Khaleesi and a couple of [stuffed] dragons. Remember this is just the UK market so the myth that anyone had a shortage of cards sounds like someone was listening to a spinner.
