I'd imagine that if you were to CrossFire two RX480s you'd be better off going with 8GB models (to achieve VRAM parity with the GTX 1080), which cannot be bought new for £150.
There's also the less reliable performance, additional power consumption and additional heat output to consider, as there is with any CrossFire/SLI setup vs a single more powerful card.
Let's not pretend it's an open and shut case of "just getting two RX480s for £150 each".

Its almost as powerful as a GTX 1080 in Ashes of the Singularity. If you don't mind half the minimum frame rate.
If you want actual performance, in all games, the 2x 480 is *terrible* value.
Recommending crossfire OR SLI to anyone must be done with extreme caution, or to people you hate.

Can see me upgrading my 1060 very, very soon just for the sake of it. I can run GTA V perfectly but these prices are getting too good to ignore.

Thanks for posting. I've ordered it, though I literally ordered the MSI GeForce GTX 1070 ARMOR 8G OC for £335.99 half an hour ago!
Does anybody know how much one actually pays if paying directly in Euros using a credit card? I know Amazon's own currency conversion isn't that favourable as they make a relatively high profit on it, but I'm curious to see how far off the £316.97 it would be if paying directly in Euros.

It depends on what credit card you used. It can be quite a bit if you used one of the regular cards.

The actual cost of this is £323 shipped, using a fee free card if you assume the currency rate is set as of now, at €1.145 to £1, Amazon want to charge £335, if you pay in local card currency of GBP.

Don't forget to factor in the cost of a fire extinguisher and a 1000w PSU.
Those cards run a lot hotter and are much hungrier than a 1070/1080.

Plus it's been proven that unless a game is optimised for crossfire/sli you will not see more than 20-30% performance gain. Having said that I have nothing to back this up with but in today's world we don't need to evidence things anymore.
