Alright, thanks

tfw want to buy a 1070 but just can't justify spending so much $$$$

Wait for vega. AMD usually has more reasonable prices.

Sorry, can't wait any more. I'll buy a 480

Vega is coming at start of 2017 though, so a few months. There are rumours about RX 475 & 485 coming soonish too.

sorry I need new GPU now. If the 485 and Vega will be significantly better and at the same price level as the RX, I'll buy either then.

"wait few months" is a largely useless advice. There's always new graphics cards coming out. You buy one in your budget, then when you can't play games with it any more because it's too slow and outdated, you buy another one.

Wireless connections is worse than any landline, even with a piece of shit Realtek 8111G NIC.
No matter how close or unobstructed you are to the wireless access point, you'll never get anywhere close to the full advertised speed of the router or wi-fi card. And it is affected by humidity, so on a rainy or foggy day you can actually drop packets with alarming frequency like the USPS. Just drill some holes in your wall, push a patch cable through, and crimp the ends with RJ-45 connectors.

Are Asus motherboards safe? If there's one thing I know it's that I don't want to deal with their support. I originally had the EVGA classified/FTW-K in mind but after the fiasco of their cards catching fire decided to switch to Asus.

asus gpus are ok but nothing special

850W is overkill unless you want to burn even more money and energy by going SLI (which is useless unless you do rendering)
