So why haven't you all upgraded to at least a 980ti by this point? You can easily sell them as soon as Pascal comes out. It's so not looking good for AMD.

I have two 980 Ti's. I'm not going to get Pascal until 6-8 months after release because all the best models of a graphics card don't come out until way after launch. The exception this time was the Gigabyte G1 980 Ti which is damn good and came out close to launch.

Guys, I could buy a ''used'' R9 Fury (non x) for 460€. It was returned to the store by a previous Customer but hasn't been in use. Warranty until 2018.
I could also buy a 980 (non ti) for the same price. I'm not exactly sure which one to get. They're pretty similar performance wise, but only if you overclock the living shit out of the 980. The Fury was only OC'd slightly in the benchmarks that I saw (partially duo to not being able to OC higher)

Pic related is my current rig. I think the only thing I need to change right now is the GPU. I'm going to college again and will most likely make much less money, so what would be the better option if I want to use it for at least 3-4 years. Currently using a 1080p panel, but I wanna either go with 4k or jump on the VR train once it comes down in price in one or two years.
>>
>>52472903
You can buy a brand new one for the same price in France and Germany.
Do you think you can wait 5 more months for Pascal ? If not, then pull the trigger

I have a R9 290 (a worse card than both of those) and desu I couldn't ask for more. I would personally go for the Fury if I couldn't afford a 980ti.

You can't overclock the Fury though.

There's a massive gap between reference 980 shown on your benchmark (which nobody buys because it's more expensive) to an non-reference overclocked 980.

What else are they supposed to use? BF3 is an AMD title.

If they bench using a more recent title the chances are it'll be a gameworks titles like the majority of the games today and you AMD users will cry foul play. The Fury will get demolished because of the piss poor tessellation performance.

It's not me that want it. I didn't complain about it. The other guy has a problem with BF3 for some reason.

Also you can get a 980 for around $350~ on sale now. The Fury still goes for $500. AMD can't compete.
>>
>>52476372

It doesn't compete with the 980 at all - its a faster card. The 390x is the 980 competitor.

No.

Let's just say *IF* the Fury is faster (it isn't), it's still not worth $100~$150 over the 980.

If you gave the slightest amount of effort you can grab a $400 980 on sale easily. I have never seen a Fury go anywhere close to that.

''So what is Nvidia launching? The GTX980Ti is nothing more than the high bin 980, this time it is clocked at an even 1GHz. Several variants are being touted by the normal AIB set with top shelf ‘Press Edition’ parts hitting ~1250MHz or so. OEMs are expecting 75-100MHz boost/turbo speeds on the low end, 100+MHz on the press variants. Everything else should be the same as the non-Ti 980s, it isn’t the big Maxwell the BS rumor sites listed a while ago, it is just what we said it was last year.S|A''

AMD is superior to Nvidia until you hit >$300 territory.

Don't fucking try to argue that the 960 is better than the 380 or that the 950 is good at all, we both know that's simply not true.
