Can you mix AMD and Nvidia cards on the same PC (when mining of course)?
Also what watt PSU would I need for the (3) 1080tis and the (1) RX480
Running the 1080tis at 80% load only.
I have an EVGA GQ 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold
The Mobo is a ASUS PRIME Z270-AR LGA 1151 and supports Quad SLI
It appears the answer is yes for mixing, some threads below for reference.

From what I understand, you may want to stay @ 80% load for PSU- 680W for 850W. I would assume your current load is under 680W- 3 x 1080 ti @ 80%= 250W x 0.8 x 3= 600W; if so appears this leaves 80W to not exceed 80% threshold. Not sure if 80W for the RX480 will yield the mining result you are looking for. If it does, you are good; if not, may want to consider a 1000W PSU or possibly higher for future expansion- measure twice cut once as opposed to measuring once and cutting twice.
