That blower should be fine for a 150 watt gpu without being spun fast n' loud. The only reason the blowers sucked ass with the 290x is because it was a power hungry card.

I would like to see one with an R9 Nano type cooler. With a tdp that low they should be able to cool it without the overhang past the pcb.

they took the previous best card on the market and made it under $200 in 2011, so it's not unheard of.
but they had the best gpu for a couple years back then before releasing it, so idk.

We don't have many concrete numbers besides AMD's benchmarks, which they obviously cherrypick to favor themselves. AMD's whole thing was performance/watt this generation (even naming it Polaris because stars are the efficient things at producing light), and the 1070 appears to be better than the RX 480 in that regard.

I'm happy AMD is catching up, but this is just more bait for the waitfags who think the next revision of Polaris will destroy AMD at the high end.

Does this mean Intel is interested in breaking out of shitty integrated graphics and competing with Nvidia in the GPU market? Man, that'd be crazy, if Intel buys the GPU division from AMD and the "green team" is now Nvidia + AMD and the "blue team" (?) is now Intel + what's become of ATI.

I don't get why everyone is buttblasted that it's not beating the 1070, it was going to be a mid range mainstream card all along, every leak said that. Yet half of /g/ is pissed off they can't beat a $400 card with a $200 one.
>>
>>54851845
Honestly I'm amazed that they're giving 390x performance for $199 with a 150w tdp.

Personally I'm waiting for something more budget tier though, like the 460x.

It's buyers remorse. These cards are fine for most games out there including VR and are cheap as dirt but Nvida convinced them to pay twice as much for little real gain.

>>54851845
It's not that, it's that the 1070 is a tier above the RX 480 yet they have the same power draw. This means that the 1060 and 1050 will likely be more power efficient and run cooler than the RX 480 and siblings (if you can call the other Polaris cards that). So it's basically confirmed AMD isn't actually ahead on their main marketing point, and pricing will likely be more competitive from Nvidia on the 1060 and 1050 now that AMD is more competitive in that price point.

>slower than card costing almost twice as much
>better deal

Well yes...
>>
>>54851933
This is entirely speculation on my end but I think this is going to be another 7970.

The 7970 and 7950 launched and ate Nvidia's lunch for about 3 months... then the 670 and 680 launched with very close performance (slowly widened over time) but both blew the 7970 out of the water. Prices dropped for AMD until they released drivers that made the 7970 directly compete with the 680.

Nowadays, the 7970 rebrand (380X) matches up with the 780Ti, when it launched at half the relative performance.


As time goes on, AMD's performance goes up and Nvidia's performance stagnates. It's a proven fact over 4 years of driver updates and rebrands.
>>
Who THE FUCK actually cares about power draw though ?
>>
>>54852032
380X isn't Tahiti, it's Tonga, it has newer architecture than the original 7970. Are you thinking of the 280X?

THANK YOU BASED KURWADIRI

$199 for a VR capable 980/390X tier card with <150TDP. LITERALLY what I've been waiting for EXACTLY.

Goddamn.

At worst you can get 2 for $400 and closely trail a 700-1000 card and only have to wait for it to outperform an 1080.

Considering 980ti is in the same boat with 1070/1080, does this surprise you? Graphics cards advance fairly rapidly. That's not to say Fury X/ 980ti aren't still viable, they're just moving down a tier.

I have a 750 Ti in my computer now, it's a solid little thing for around $100, it'll definitely carry you through light games like League of Legends and anything on Source. I'm probably gonna get this new $200 AMD card to replace mine since I can't run Overwatch on the thing right now, though.
It could also be my processor slowing games down, but I guess I'll find out
>>
>>54852315

Wait for those Polaris cards or try to get a cheap ri 380. It will be slightly better than the meme 750ti, though it's a good card as well.
>>
Falling for AMD memes guys. The TPD on the 480 matches the 1070, so we can extrapolate and the 1060 or 1050 will have VASTLY lower TDP in the 75-100w range, and probably offer around 110% of the 480’s performance.

If you want a cheaper card why not wait a few months rather than selling out to the red devil?
>>
>>54852307
It's $400 vs $599, do you even math?

Most people already tried multi-GPU and know how much it sucks and most modern games don't even bother supporting multi GPU

You'll pretty much have a worse experience with 4GB framebuffer on each card

>but both blew the 7970 out of the water.
680 outperformed 7970 by roughly 7% at 1080p at launch. 670 had similar performance to 7970 at launch. Is this what "blew out of the water" means to you, or are you trying to exaggerate the performance gains of 7970?

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_670/28.html

>until they released drivers
What they did was up the core and memory clocks by 125 MHz. Simply calling it a driver update is extremely misleading. This overclock brought 7970 slightly above 680 at 1080p (at higher resolutions the gap is a lot wider).

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/HD_7970_GHz_Edition/28.html

>when it launched at half the relative performance.
At 780 Ti launch, 7970 was 72% of the performance of 780 Ti, which is pretty far from half.

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_780_Ti/27.html

>Nowadays, the 7970 rebrand (380X) matches up with the 780Ti
In the most recent TPU benchmarks, 780 Ti is still 32% ahead of 280X at 1080p. While this is a bit lower than the difference was at 780 Ti release (39%), it's far from the values you're claiming.

http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_1080/26.html

Classic AMD shilling. Think my job is done here.

>inb4 someone posts a random cherrypicked benchmark where 280X matches 780 Ti and claims that it's a better representative of performance rather than an average of 16-18 games
>inb4 someone starts posting benchmarks at a resolution different than 1080p making the chain of comparisons worthless because a different resolution is being used at a single point
>>
AMD has only one gpu? No RX 470?
>>
>>54852593
In the world of FPS, even 1% can make a huge difference. 7% is certainly blowing it out of the water.
>>
>>54852624
470 will likely be a Polaris 11 part like the 460.
>>
>>54852648
7% is the difference between 56 fps and 60 fps.

Not sure who would call that huge.

And 1% most certainly doesn't make a huge difference. It's most likely not even a statistically significant difference.

2x RX 480, cheaper and better then a 1080

lol he 150W tdp only means it will be using a single 6 pin connector

this doesnt mean that the card is using all 150w of that power, it means its limited to that 150w of that 6 pin connector

and guess what, the card can use less, and they never said what or how many Watts the card was using or even uses at full load

AND GUESS WHAT the gtx1070 will most likely being using almost all of those 150W at release non overclocked just like the 1080, meaning very little overhead for overclocking


Im patiently awaiting vendors OC cards and see what they bring

A 280X now matches the 780Ti. You're a little off champ.

>But for the mainstream crowd that couldn't give a monkeys about TDP and process improvements, a £160 graphics card that plays high-end games at 1440p on the desktop, and spits out VR visuals without fuss is a very attractive proposition—one that Nvidia simply doesn't have a response to right now. Here's hoping that RX 480 can deliver when it's released on June 29.

In my experience, price drops during a generation switch are usually very small or non-existent. They are a lot more noticeable on the used market. If you still want a 970, get a used one. People will probably be selling theirs once the 1070 is released.

The 5TFs were leaked weeks ago.
It's still a good 20% slower than a 1070.
It still doesn't' have CUDA.
The 200$ card has 4GB of ram.
I could go on and on why the card is priced fairly.

Look. If you're a poor ass kid in Russia, Arabistan or India and you just want to play a shitty video game at 1080p at 60 fps (ever more doubtful considering Denuvo pretty much killed video game piracy), feel free to buy a 480.

What you and everyone else in this board haven't noticed is that the 1080 is also rated at 150 TDP even though it's being built with an 8 pin where as the 480 only has a 6 pin. What I'm saying is that the official TDP should be taken with a grain of salt. Just look back at how AMD rated the 7850 and 7870 as 150 TDP even though neither of them drew more than ~110.
