The goal with the first AMD cards is full performance on 1440p (2K) monitors (like my 32 inch center monitor) -- at relatively low cost. However, the 1080 seems aimed at three 2K monitors (at least I would use it that way) -- maximum performance at maximum price.
What's the definition of 'full performance'? I'm guessing workable frame rates or possibly a 60 fps target as it depends on the context - it doesn't sound like a 90fps frame rate will be possible at 1440p which is the target frame rate for VR.
