NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 vs Titan X vs R9 Fury vs GTX 980 Ti vs GTX 980 vs R9 390X @ HiTech Legion

Some of my readers may have noticed that I am very strict in how I test video cards and I also don't like wasting time on something that just doesn't matter. 

For instance, when I review a video card I'm looking at the relative performance against whatever else is in the review.  That might be a GTX 980Ti or a Radeon R7970 or even a G200 the idea is the same, which is faster.  Over the years I have noticed a growing trend in the review community where the readers have started influencing how reviewers compile their articles, sometimes the complaints makes since while most of the time it is just someone pissed off they clicked on a link.

The way I see it a video card review is a review of that video card, not a "round up" of video card performance.  HiTechLegion has rounded up some big players in the video card space and decided to see how much faster a GTX 1080 is over what you already have.

(or did they)

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 not only outperforms the GTX 980 which it will be replacing, its performance eclipses that of the Titan X which until now was the performance king.

I'm pretty sure the Pascal is the obvious winner here but the burning video combined with a broken article is really lowing my confidence level.
