actually from what I heard (haven't decided yet to buy one... because they are way too expensive compared to the previous serie), the 10xx serie doesn't do that well on ethereum (I mean compared to amd...) actually it is a bit deceiving at that level. I was hoping for hbm when they announced that serie but as long as they stay with gddr5 x( or not) and small memory bus, you can't hope for very high performance...
