Releases tomorrow. What are your toughts, ne/g/ros
>>54756942
How do these high-profile graphics card affect daily computer use?
>>54756942
I like the GPU self baking feature. The card heals itself if it ever has a bad connection.
>>54756993
what do you mean? like render your facebook pages faster?
I'm considering upgrading from two HD7950s (xfire), is it worth it? I run three monitors
>>54756942
I'm an independent woman and I know my rights
>>54756993
I can assure you that half of the customer base won't even use it at full capacity, let alone know their own resolution or purpose for buying it for that matter
This is the middle market after all
>>54757216
What would that be familia?
>>54757105
I mean like Final Draft documents, and Sony Vegas editing
I'm hoping it releases at midnight tonight so I can order it to receive it in time for the heat death of the universe.
Got a brand new build a week ago ready for it to be slotted into, my 780 burned out not 3 days before that so I jammed an old 760 in to get me through.
>>54757389
Daily use
-sony vegas editing
yeah sounds like average person every-day use
kek
anon mentioning facebook was closer to truth
>>54757394
My motherboard is 4 years old
can i still use new graphic card?
will there be massive drop because old pci slot
do i have enought pins in motherboard?
MSI H61M-G35 (G3)(MS-7680) (SOCKET 0)
>>54756942
wont buy since the 900series was a disaster except energy efficiency-wise.
>>54757151
a g3240's HD graphics can run 3 monitors you tech illiterate moron
>>54757448
It'll support it just fine as far as I'm aware, your only problem will be is the likely old as fuck processor you have slotted in it will cause a bottleneck.
>>54757638
my old processor is still third best in most game benchmarks
it is also unlocked for overclocking.
anyway I ask because of Polaris not gtx 1080
>>54757394
Exact same situation senpai. Exact same. Except I was using a 6 year old card. I bought a mobo with onboard graphics to wait until the 1080 launches. Been kinda paralyzed between overpaying to have it now or waiting for actual good aftermarket cards.
Games (real reason to get these, don't argue) look like shit, what game needs a 1080 and does it look like it needs that power?
>>54757085
>He doesn't set custom fan profiles so he can run 2GHz at a cool 67 degrees
>>54757700
I'm of the opinion that I fucking despise my 760 situation and I don't mind paying a premium for something now that's going to be damn good for a very long time, with a cooling solution that's perfectly adequate (considering my case and the cooling setup inside)
>>54757767
>wanting a rolls royce turbine in your PC
>>54757767
And have it sound like a jet engine.
What about just wait for the custom designs?
>>54757747
Crysis
>>54757862
Almost 10 years old chalk graphics 1.0 piece of shit gameplay game, gtx 280 would have a hard time with it
>>54756942
it's a really great card if you're into gaming, especially VR gaming and multi-monitor gaming
maybe if it's a bit out of your budget then wait (like a couple of weeks or something? idk) for gtx 1070 and amd polaris, price might come down a little or you might go with a gtx 1070 instead
>>54756942
Getting one, just not decided on when. I probably can't get one in launch even if I tried and 800 euros for the Founder's Edition is a steep price - especially when I don't really need a blower style cooler. It's a card which gives me good enough performance for an upgrade from GTX 780 to be worth it. I'm really curious to see what you can do with the NVENC, too. Haven't found much info on the new version implemented in Pascal. I'm a bit interested in SLI too but I'm waiting for proper frame time analysis benchmarks before purchasing a second card.
>>54757747
I'd completely disagree that games "look like shit". It's subjective and fairly unrelated to performance requirements for games. I want to run newer games at high frames on high resolutions without needing to turn down graphics settings(too much). If my display can do 2560x1440 at 165Hz, I want to make use of it.
>>54757964
When a PS4 exclusive is more visually appealing than anything on steam you know the state of this shit hobby is shit
>>54757964
The price will be 50% less by christmas, below 300 bucks
Current games are average at best, the industry isn't what it used to be, it's probably related to microsoft shutting down dx12 on win10 and asking for their cut from sale platforms. Vulkan is promising
>>54758018
>comparing apples and oranges
fuck off retard
>>54758047
No fuck you wasting money on higher resolutions is the gayest thing there is when the visuals are shit
>>54758042
>The price will be 50% less by christmas, below 300 bucks
no it won't, just look at 980 ti or anything, hell even fucking gtx 970 and r9 290x equivalents are probably 300+ still
>Current games are average at best
not in terms of graphics, the top ones have made huge strides in graphics quality if you know what you're looking at
>>54756942
Waiting for the MSI 1080 Ti you fucking hick
Finally downloaded new drivers for my 960.
Surprised to a see a jump in performance of 14% with Unigine Valley.
Reminder that you share board with /v/irgins
Reminder that if that wasn't enough, these retards even buy reference cards
>>54758090
Who knows when that shitll be
>>54758018
It's in the eyes of the beholder and unrelated to whether you need power to run them. I want performance more than the eye candy anyway but by paying out the ass I could get both so that's what I'll end up doing.
>>54758042
It's not going to be anywhere near that cheap and I'm not going to start waitfagging for rapidly evolving computer hardware. By holidays we have probably another flagship or two out from both brands and rumors of the next generation are circulating at full force. Should I start waiting for a price drop then too? Wait for the next gen? I'm going to see what the card manufacturers have to offer on the GTX 1080, pick a good card and call it a day.
>>54756942
No thoughts because I'm waiting for 1070.
Anyone knows how long will we have to wait for non-reference 1070? Please tell me that it won't take more than 2 weeks.
>>54758075
The 1080 is equivalent to the 980 in terms of positioning, it's a new architecture and the middle gets slashed the most. However if you're running two in sli, it's a classy setup alhough I'd rather aim for top or sub-top single gpu. A 1060 will probably follow as well.
I agree visuals are good, I play in 4k and its worth it however the substance of games, this "pull" to play is not as appealing anymore, probably due to early releases or too mainstream aa titles.. We currently dont have an original blockbuster title that makes people play and get hooked
Personally I'm just waiting for the 1070. 1080 is overkill for me. Hell, even the 1070 is probably overkill, but it's slightly cheaper overkill.
>>54758121
Oldest benchmark I have. No overclocking. It says Ultra/Custom because I ran on a CRT without EDID.

Doesn't sound that bad to me. I had an old fermi reference cooler and this completely eliminates that horrible whirring sound.
Sounds like a bunch of whooshing air, and not nearly enough to cut through my closed headset when gaming.

>>54756942
>still no freesync support
nope.
>>54757964
If you have a 780 you already have NVENC, unless you specifically mean the new HEVC options. If it's anything like the older NVENC then you can expect performance of around the "high quality" preset in real-time e.g. It'll look damn good.

Love Nvidia
Love AMD
Hate how Nvidia lies to people. Watch the one guy play Crisis 3. 45 seconds in card is at 82c
>>54758478
clearly the temp depends on the game, room temperature, case airflow, overclocking etc
>All those richfags will get the 1080 card and enjoy comfy gaming early
>I will have to wait extra 14 days for the 1070 to come out
>probably even more to get the MSI version, since reference cards are shit
I just want to finally change my toaster for something that can actually play games and that card is the only thing delaying it now.
Life is pain
Get 1070 or wait for Polaris?
>>54758511
I feel your pain, guy
>>54758511
>>54758547
Maybe we must experience suffering before we learn to take the risks for what we love. /g/
>>54758544
wasn't polaris supposed to paper launch before 1070 releases, but imo get the 1070 anyway
>>54758544
I wait for polaris as I believe It will outlast 1070 because nvidia seems to be worse over time as amd gets better drivers
>>54758609
nvidia doesn't get any worse, it's just that amd starts out with shitty drivers that slowly improve over time
gtx 1070 blows anything by amd out of the water at least for curved displays, multi monitors, VR simply because of the simultaneous multi-projection
>>54758566
Once the non-reference 1070 is out Im going to have my the best time in my life and the longer I have to wait the better I'll feel once the I start the first game on it.
I can already taste the feeling of satisfaction, but it's still so far away.
>>54758511
If you can afford a 1070. I don't understand how you won't find a way to get a 1080 by that time. What are you a neet? Do you not get paid weekly or bi-weekly?
>>54758654
well i use just 1 monitor and never found use for 2+
if i would get rich enought for more monitors i would just crossfire/sli 1080
most people here use additional monitors to look on waifu-anime-wallpapers and 2% of them actually programm something
>>54758763
Im not only buying the card man, also Im from Poland so it costs more and it's harder to organize so much money, I already got pretty lucky.
I think you're a retarded faggot.
Good goyim, keep buying those cards, only to replace them with the 1080 Ti 2 months later. Sure someone will buy your old 1080s for 1/3th of what you paid, assuming they havent spontaneously combusted before that.
>>54759059
>only to replace them with the 1080 Ti 2 months later
they won't release that until just before amd releases vega or whatever they end up calling their new flagship
better to wait while goyim are buying up the lesser 1080 and then rain on amd's parade again
>>54759059
Poorfag detected
>>54758416
Didn't they have a 1080 @ 2.1Ghz at 76c or something like that?
Why would you need an aftermarket cooler?

Cash grab Maxwell rebrand.
Shame AMD are only releasing low-end trash otherwise their chip would make Pascal look like the joke it is.
>>54759609
Everyone keeps posting results with the stock fan curve that clocks down before ramping the fan up because muh noise.
The reality is if you set a custom fan curve that allows the fan to hit 100% you can do exactly what Nvidia demonstrated on stage.

alot of them have 1million dollor houses its nothing for them.
I'm not buying one because i have a skymeme to buy atm i just got my 320NZD mobo now for a 567NZD 6700K or 510NZD on new egg
why make up excuses your just digging your self a hole anon.
>>54759792
Pee-noise pride.
>He has to turn his fans onto noisy leaf blower mode to get past 1607
>>54759825
Yes, but that has the same effect as if you set a fan curve where 70 degrees = 100% fan.
Yes, it's shit that the default fan curve lets the card hit 84 degrees, but it's been that way for the past few generations. They prefer a hot card over a loud card. Every GPU acts this way though, it doesn't make Pascal a housefire. All you have to do is set it so the cooler does its damn job.
>>54760267
reviewers are saying it's quiet
I actually like the sound of loud fans.
>>54760304
In unrelated news, reviewers that say stuff that seems like bullshit are found to be paid off.
>>54760433
Yeah, so what? I already watched it. That sounds loud as hell depending on what your volume is set to. 38.2 decibels is not quiet.
>>54759751
No I meant for the image I replied to.
>>54760267
Luckily I have my own place so I don't have to worry about waking up my parents by having my computer running.

Guess there's no point in buying a more expensive meme cooler then, sweet.
>>54760538
there are probably quieter options but like if you have a noise-isolating case on the floor and use headphones you might not hear/notice it at all
>>54760996
I have the 1080 with me now, it's kinda noisy.
>>54756942

I hope you and your family dies of aids and you get raped by 20 niggers and your family gets to watch. i latterly hope you die and i fucking hate you.
>>54761455
This guy seems dishonest as fuck. Did he seriously put a water block on his reference card and then run tests on it labeled as "1080 founder's reference" while waving around the stock one like it was the one he tested?
>>54756942
It's insane performance, but right now way to expensive for what it offers.
Just like the 980 was a shit buy, the 1080 is too, but even worse.
I'm looking forward to the 1070 as a replacement for my 780ti. Then later this year or the beginning of next year I might replace it with the 1080ti.
>>54756942
I'm going to jump on the shitload of used 980ti's that will be dumped after the release of the 1080 and 1070.
Which custom one should I get?

The extra power is wasted on bullshit
>>54765761
> Except uncharted 4 looks better without any of that
Then you A: have a shitty monitor or B: are full of shit.
I fucking guarantee you uncharted runs on lower resolution and settings than that on the pS4 so looks shittier

Learn to read you gigantic piece of shit
Dell ultrasharp btw
Anyone know what time today they are "released"?
I've got a few different stores open in tabs and I refresh them every so often, but I won't bother if it's not for another few hours.
>>54765776
I read exactly what you said, its horseshit though
When for example I compare witcher 3 on the ps4 with witcher 3 on the pc 1440p. It's a whole different game. The difference in graphics and framerate is massive.

>>54765647
>uncharted
The most overrated pos of the decade.
>>54765815
yeah
>>54765793
Yeah but a piece of shit 2tflop shit pushes out graphics in a game that I have never seen on PC
I'm saying that I want games to focus on making stuff look good without just throwing in higher res shit looking stuff like tune your shaders and let the artists, animators and designers work wonders, attention to detail
I agree witcher 3 looks like shit on PS4 though as that's the version I owned (what a piece of shit game anyway)
>>54765906
>Yeah but a piece of shit 2tflop shit pushes out graphics in a game that I have never seen on PC
That's just an example of one shitty console port though. And I haven't even seen it myself.
In pretty much every other game, a PC with a decent graphics card will blow away graphics on a console.
>>54765906
>wants to play Uncharted
>calls Witcher 3 a shit game
Wtf is wrong with you
THANK YOU BASED NVIDIA
>>54765948
I don't care enough about gaming to roleplay or whatever, I killed the griffin or whatever and was pretty much done with that shit, so boring
>>54765965
If you don't like playing good games just say so
>>54765981
Yeah I also hated skyrim, installed some tit mods and enb, looked like garbage btw and the game is horrible
>>54765965
So you don't care about RPG's, doesn't mean the game is shit
Witcher 3 pretty much set the bar to beat for RPG's the time it released .
Really looking forward to the new exp pack which is coming in a few days
>>54765937
I'm saying that we can get better graphics with shit hardware so the devs should step up
>>54766014
>I'm saying that we can get better graphics with shit hardware
That's what you are saying yes, and I'm saying you're full of shit and one game does not prove that wrong
>>54766021
That one game is proof that with the right people it happens
>>54765990
I don't like skyrim and I loved the witcher 3.
The witcher 3 is more about exploration than roleplay since you're just in someone else's shoes, but the world is open to him, as well as good story.
You should beat it if for no other reason than it's great
i'm fine with a i5 4690k, right?
>>54766035
I sold my PS4 so I have to get it again for PC if I feel like playing
>>54766032
Anecdotal evidence is hardly evidence at all, show me side by side screenshots
This gaming argument is the dumbest fucking shit. It's like being on GAF.
>>54765962
One of the reasons why I'm excited to upgrade my GPU are here. I'm interested in the little details of the new Pascal NVENC. GTX 980 had very limited HEVC encoder settings even in 8 bit.
>>54765962
>H.264 decode up to 240Mbps
Damn, that's some shit right there.
>>54766038
You are fine.
>>54766052
That uncharted 4 PS4 looks better than uncharted 4 on PC?
Uncharted 4 looks better than anything I've played on PC though, google is full of screenshots retard
>>54766068
That's what I thought, no evidence
Moving on
>>54766073
Well move on then, I'll still whine about my 4x more powerful card basically playing the same shit at higher frame rates and resolutions with rest of the power wasted on cranking filtering/lod up when it could be used on something amazing
>>54766093
Nobody gives a shit about uncharted though, I don't understand why you keep bringing it up
Games that actualy matter like Witcher 3 look 10x better on a decent PC than they do on a shitty console
>>54766100
Because I'm mad that uncharted 4 looks better than anything I can play on PC
>>54766065
from 1 to 10, how fine? like 7/10 fine?
>>54766114
Well good for you
>>54766114
Uncharted 4 looks great, but "better than anything I can play on PC"? It is 30FPS, mate.
>>54766129
It obviously doesn't look better, there is no way that it looks better than Witcher 3 on 1440p maxed out for example
>>54766117
Don't listen to that AMD shill. You are fucked my boy, utterly fucked.
Don't miss out on the future, purchase your own Intel® i5-6700K™ today for a premium gaming experience.

4690K is probably between 8-9/10, on the fineness scale. You _probably_ do not need a new CPU for the next 5 years.

>>54766129
I know it's 30fps but I don't get anything as appealing on my 980ti at 30fps just shit looking stuff at crazy resolutions
Why are you bloody idiots arguing with anecdotes of which game looks visually more appealing to one antoher?
>>54766142
lul
>>54766145
that's good to read. thank you.
>>54766068
>>54766114
uncharted 4 isn't a bad looking game but the shaders are kinda clayish looking, i'm sure you're biased because of the quality of your tv vs your pc monitor and because of the animations and such, not the gpu-level graphics per se
here you can see the e3 trailer looks a lot better, the reason it doesn't look the same in the retail version is because the ps4 lacks the graphics hardware to run it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRH91VRZQds
>>54766176
ultrasharp is the only thing I play on, already sold my PS4 though
Yeah the attention to detail and fine tuning of shaders might not push the graphics card and it's annyoing that you don't get this fine tuning on PC games, so my 980ti will not help in any way and the visuals I'm looking for can not be brute forced by increasing resolutions which fuckong sucks
>>54766134
You have to look at things from both sides of the fence. Uncharted 4 is 1080p@30FPS. I believe that it is the best looking console game that I have ever seen.
...you cannot really compare it to 1440p@144Hz. That is like comparing an excellent family sedan to a supercar.

Tomb Raider, Crysis 3, Witcher 3, and (unless my memory fails me) SW:Battlefront should all be better looking than Uncharted 4. That said, Uncharted 4 is beautiful, and I think Naughty Dog are a bit daft to make such a good looking game, then deny it to PC gamers who have the hardware to make it look so much better than consoles.

>and it's annyoing that you don't get this fine tuning on PC games,
Maybe not in that game, in others you do
>>54765962
I wonder if you can encode H264 and HEVC simultaneously.
>>54766229
I understand it isn't a very fair comparison but he said it looked better than anything he played on his pc.
And he said he played Witcher 3 plus owns a 980ti so I presumed he played at those settings
>>54766063
>animuuuu
>>54766242
Maybe the beachy cliff jumping of Uncharted 4 appealed to the fellow more than the forested sword-y spells of Witcher 3.
>>54766209
And I want something like the e3 trailer on PC yet we aren't even getting the retail version quality which is fucking stupid as my GPU is literally 4x more powerful
>>54766229
I got the newest tomb raider recently and at the beginning where you break the walls to fill the rooms with water you see the water doesn't flow anywhere, just dissapears in to the ground, no splashing effects or anything, yet the room fills with water in like 2 seconds with a hole that releases like 10 liters a second, everything looks like chalk too
>>54766236
I haven't found that game
>>54766299
Then you aren't looking very hard
>>54766241
no chance in hell. But I doubt that anyone really does that without multiple cpus/gpus in their system to begin with.
>>54766328
I've tried modding games but it turns out 100% of it is just kids uploading enb presets, fucking retarded
I've been looking at triple A games
>>54756942
Buying a 1080 is just as stupid as buying a 980 ever was, only 30% more expensive this time.
I'm waiting for Polaris 10 then deciding between it and the 1070, like any sane person probably should.
GP102 and Vega will curbstomp the 1080 in less than a year, and good luck trying to get much of your money back on eBay at that point.
Looks like the bat mobile.
>>54761318
>there is no gimping
>he actually believe this will happen
>>54756942
>he fell for the nvidia meme
what are real retail prices? as suspected 700+?
>>54766811
$700 is the only real MSRP, since it's the only one Nvidia is itself qualified to give.
"hey uh the other card makers should totally sell theirs for $100 less" is complete jewish bullshit.
expect the cards to run in the $700-$800 range with limited supply.
Who /alreadyboughtit/ here?
>>54766898
as long as there aren't any supply issues others will probably bring the prices down to be competitive with cheaper coolers etc so they can sell them in mass quantities, like with the custom msi gtx 970 which was (and is) immensely popular
>>54766959
reference cards weren't that expensive either
they ask +100 for nothing, and they have a reason they don't talk about because usually +100 more isn't helpful for business
anyone got stats on 980ti sales? because we are in that realm for 1070, and it is bad
>buying a meme card
top kek
>>54766959
1080 needs three semi-rare/low volume things:
> GDDR5X - not exactly flooding the streets yet
> uncut GP104 - TSMC yields on 300+ mm^2 chips not yet knows
> different PCB - GDDR5X has different pinout than normal GDDR5
>>54766948
When will newegg start selling? I have a pretty substantial gift credit I want to use.
>>54767002
they're not asking $100 more, they're asking for $700 for cards while trying to flash around a $599 sticker price that won't be available anywhere.
>>54766948
>who dipshit here
not me :^)
>>54766948
>not getting this instead
>>54756942
Should've waited for the inevitable TI version.
>>54767058
did anyone else notice how heavyweight coolers are on all AIBs? They all look like Sapphire products now.
good goyim buy a reference card
>Google 1440p benchmarks for the gtx 1080 in shit I play
>Get articles about 1080p benchmarks from months back
Figures.
>>54758502
Nah, the reference 1080 thermal throttles while running basically any game on the market. The reference cooler is a piece of shit that can't handle the TDP of the card.
>>54767022
ok but i think gtx 1070 will have competitive pricing since it has a cut GP104 and plain GDDR5
>>54767137
try searching for
>1440p benchmarks "gtx 1080"
and you can go in search tools -> past month/week
>>54767225
>Nah, the reference 1080 thermal throttles while running basically any game on the market

>>54767246
competitive with what?
$450 demands quite a lot of performance.
>8 + 2 phase power connector instead of the 5+1 on the reference card
Can't wait to see how well this things oc's so we can finaly compare some oc'd 980ti's with it

>In the simplest terms AMD has created a product that runs hotter and slower than its competition's new architecture by a potentially significant margin.
AMDPOORFAGS CONFIRMED ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>54767285
well it's a really good card with all the latest technologies and especially for the VR meme it's a good buy and it's relatively affordable, lots and lots of people bought the gtx 970 and it was almost the same price
>>54756942
it's being compared to stock 980ti's, and even overclocked for some reviews, it's dogshit
>>54767314

Okay.

It hurts. Sometimes I think it'd less expensive to just travel to US and buy there.
>>54761455
>DXRacer logo must always be in view
>>54767314
damn AMD is getting rekt even harder than i thought
hopefully the people making mobile gpus can step things up and make good desktop gpus to provide competition and encourage technological progress like if they can make a pretty damn good single digit watt chip maybe it can scale to 200W
>>54767431
This "editorial" is worse than office gossip, why would you take it seriously? Not to mention 4/5 of it is about office gossips and not hardware.
>Let’s start with the tension. Koduri was able to wrestle control of the graphics division away during AMD’s last leadership transition after threatening to leave the ship and take a role at Intel, something he's not shy about telling his AMD colleagues. Lisa Su caved and Koduri got the job.

Talk me out of it lads
>>54767452
It would explain why AMD has said almost nothing about the release of Polaris so far

you don't have to commit to buying straight away, it's a pre-order anyway, maybe some other product comes out or another dela comes up that you'd rather have

How much do you guys reckon the 1070 will be?
Cant really rationalize spending £690 on the 1080 at the moment but I really wanna upgrade from the gtx590

>Where the plot thickens is when you look at the Koduri’s unwavering ambition. Koduri’s ultimate goal is to separate the Radeon Technologies Group from its AMD corporate parent at all costs with the delusion that RTG will be more competitive with NVIDIA and a become a possible acquisition target for Koduri and his band of mutineers to cash in when it's sold. While Koduri is known to have a strong desire to do this by forging a new relationship with Apple on custom parts (no surprise there) for Macbooks, the real focus is on trying to become the GPU technology
>supplier of choice to none other than Intel. While this was speculated some time ago I can tell you with certainty that a deal is in the works with Intel and Koduri and his team of marauders working overtime to get the deal pulled into port ASAP. The Polaris 10/11 launch, and all of its problems, are set to become a future problem of Intel’s in what RTG believes will be a lucrative agreement that will allow Koduri and his men to slash the lines from Lisa Su and the rest of AMD.
>>54767648
They did, that's what fanboys do
I was kind of hyped at the beginning but after all the truth has come out it's kind of put me off pc gaming hardware in general. I can see where the industry is going with anti-consumer practices and tricking people into spending money kind of like what happened with the game devs and their pre-order or early access bullshit or shitty ports. I honestly feel like just selling my $2500 rig and just buying a $600 laptop to play dota on and wiping my hands of the whole gaming pc racket.
>>54767634
>7.5 gb
>>54767695
nice meme
even if it were to be "crippled" that way it'd still be plenty of VRAM
>>54767683
No, they said 1440p 60fps
They didn't specify max settings though
>>54767683
hard to implicate TPU/guru3d/anandatech in that specially for AMD
>>54767660
while AMD is no doubt a shit show internally, you have to wonder how much of this is Kyle getting his panties in a twist over not getting invited to the Polaris launch.
>>54767711
>I accept my cuckolding
>>54767717
Yeah so then we can say nothing about the performance of the card based on that
