AMD still getting the largest performance boost but Nvidia has been able to close the gap to make the performance difference between the GTX 1060 and RX 480 inconsequential at stock speeds.

CPU performance goes through the roof with Vulkan. Also, $800 for a second 1080 to get an extra 20fps...SLI working as expected here.

is this actually a retest? I know for one that a 980ti nor a 1080 has such low fps for max. What am I missing here?

They are using SMAA which AFAIK still disables Async Compute while in Vulkan, so the gains should be larger. Not sure why they aren't using TSSAA.

Hawaii has been dropping off like a rock in recent games. I am selling my 390X today because a 470 I have is close enough.

Your 390x should still be faster than a 470. Their reference throttling 290 was only a few fps lower than the 470.

This game is weak even my old overclocked gtx960 4gb ran over 60fps easy.

I agree that this game is... well I wouldn't say weak but doesn't need much to run , it's silky smooth even with mid specs... I ran it on a decent laptop just fine. And ran it on my main PC which it wouldn't even have a problem at 1440p highest settings.

The trick to the 470 is it OCes better than the 480 in some cases because it has more to gain and further to go if you get my drift. I am not saying the 390x isn't faster, but at 1080p even at higher settings it's hard to tell a difference for way less noise and heat.

What scares me about the 390X is what is shown in this game and in others- Hawaii probably isn't in for a great 2017. The 480 has been gaining on the 390x since launch and in some newer games we see the 470 beating a reference 290 that was basically its equal at launch. I bought the 390x because I was amazed with how future-proof that GPU seemed to be considering how well it did with early Directx 12 ports vs Maxwell plus it's 8GB of vram. In retrospect I wanted the Hawaii of 2013 in 2015 and it just didn't exist then (Fury X maybe).

I don't think I would use the word "weak" to define Doom in terms of IQ and performance. The engine is actually really sophisticated, and uses a lot of information from the previous frame to render the current one which really increases performance.. Unreal Engine 4 does this as well, and that's a large part of what makes multi GPU so difficult to implement with these engines.

But for what is presented, Doom is one highly optimized son of a gun. Lots of dynamic lighting, shadows, reflections and particle effects which are done really nicely. In fact, Doom has way more dynamic effects compared to games that use the Frostbite 3 engine like Star Wars Battlefront, which is widely seen as having top notch graphics.
