Two to three(2 years) more GPU generations... You will get a RX760/GTX3050Ti with similar performance to a RX 580(590ish) for $200 but by then the X1X will probably be sold for $399.
The X1X in terms of price/performance is probably the best console in a long time.
That being said PC will always be more powerful, its no win battle. You guys get consoles built for price/performance where the manufactures make deals and lots of cost cutting is done its to meet the desired performance... PC can never compete directly since components are sold individually.
If you want price/perfomance and dont care about framerate get a X1X... If you care about framerates get a PC with a high end GPU, its simple as.
Nope, not even a single generation.
Vega 11 has RBE updates like X1X's RBE updates. Think of RX-580 with Vega 64 era clock speed e.g. 1.6 Ghz (7.3 TFLOPS with 36 CU) and RBE with mulit-MB of cache (copies GP104's L2 cache layout). RX-580 already has comparable triangle rate as GTX 1070's 5G and it's just missing RBE updates and DX12 Feature 12_1(rasterization feature updates, Pascal feature level).

"AMD’s Vega isn't finished yet, Vega 11 goes into production to replace Polaris".
AMD has two Vega generations and these are 14 nm FinFET and 14 nm FinFET+ updates before 7 nm FinFET Navi arrives.
Vega 11 is needed for Raven Ridge SoC's Vega based IGP partnering e.g. a gaming laptop with Vega 11 (~36 CU) dGPU + SoC's Vega based IGP (11 CU) hybrid setup. Laptop market is about half of X86 market..
The problem is the miners and hopefully AMD keeps RX-580s for the miners while gamers has Vega 11.
