I would wait the month or so for Navi cards to show up and see how they do on thermals and if the application performance is to your liking; Navi is intended for midrange cards(says the PR) but getting similar performance to your 1080 is possible.

AMD's recent releases have a reputation of releasing at "hot/high-power" stock and then doing much better when undervolted. Navi will get the die shrink, so the results for both power and thermals are likely to be even better, but benchmarking needs to be done before we have a full picture of what's changed.
