There's been a lot of AMD shilling going on recently, but let's face it:
>8g 480x 250$
>390x tier performance with lower tdp
>1070
>379$
>Titan X performance, beats an crossfire 480 setup
AMD once again jumped the bullet and once again came out short. NVIDIA is actually offering more bang for the buck.
>>54909949
AMD showed a crossfire 480 beats a 1080 so fuck off kike
Someone is ignoring the fact that at any given time, there were no less than 6 threads AT THE SAME TIME. When the 1080 came out.
>>54909949
implying it will cost $379
>>54910024
But the 1080 is a much better than the whole polaris lineup. AMD is pandering to poorfags with subpar equipment.
>>54910045
The 480 isn't meant to compete with the 1080 you retard.
>>54909949
>>8g 480x 250$

>>390x tier performance with lower tdp

Nowhere can you find it for this price, also Nvidia is having some kind of production problems.

>>Titan X performance, beats an crossfire 480 setup
480 Crossfire has already been shown to beat a 1080 at half the utilization and with better graphics.

I am rooting for AMD but this type of gung-ho enthusiasm is beneath any reasonable consumer.
One has to look at the overall track record: only just recently AMD has been somewhat catching up with NVIDIA thanks to the 390 which is a slightly better option than the 970, but it came too late.
If the 480 is to match the Fury, than Fury, a roughly 450$ card, becomes totally obsolete, just months after its release.
I think Polaris will be quite decent and cheap but nothing beyond that.
>>54910045
One thing you have to realize, along with everyone else, is this card is the new hotness for the MID RANGE lineup. There is no reason to really compare this range of cards to Nvida's current TOP RANGE cards. The reason everyone's excited is the fact that these new Polaris cards, absolutely murder the last gen AMD mid-range cards. The fact that when in certain circumstances, a crossfired mid-range card, can trade blows with a current Nvidia top range card, is impressive. I'm not going to spew meme's and racist idioms at anyone, but the fact that they (AMD), have this kind of power at that level, means they (hopefully) have a new monster waiting for the high end. When Nvidia releases the equivalent to the Polaris range, then, people can shit fling over those two cards.
>>54910194
Nvidia has actually something more powerful than a 1080 coming out? Haven't heard of it.
>>54910223
Every year since the 780, I believe, Nvidia has always released a TI version. Plus, the hideously overpriced, (In my opinion) Titan range. So, it is safe to assume the same this year.
>>54910223
GP102 I think
The Titan X is the most horrendously overpriced product in recent years.
It's literally been rendered irrelevant with the release of 1070. A fucking 400$ gpu beating a 1000$ gpu.

What's the point of blowing all of your money on a GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 when 99% of you are playing at 1080p 60fps? These cards are built for 144hz or 1440p and are just a big waste for anything less than that.

Wait. Fury X is beating 1080 at 1080p? That's fucked up. DX11 Fury X only beat the 980Ti in 1440p/4k. I can't believe Nvidia is that shit.
>>54912416
Tell you what, it makes a huge fucking difference to the temps.
My CPU used to idle at 28c, max temp of 70c under normal benchmarks, though I'd seen it run up to 97c on IBT and AIDA64 (though only for about 1 microsecond at a time).
The Fury X would idle 22-24c and go up to 65c on Ashes of the Singularity, though most other games would struggle to hit 60c.
Now the CPU idles at 30-32c (so a very slight increase) but the maximum temperature I've seen from it is 44c and as for the Fury X, even Ashes can't make it go above 39c.
39c. That's down from 65 on the old, stock cooler.
That's a fucking 26c decrease.
Granted, I've not fully confirmed this, it was only one game I played and I didn't play for a full two hours, but given that the cooling option has gone from one (thick) 120mm rad to 720mm of (thin) radiator space, in a proper loop, it makes some sense.
Still, that's immense if it holds up like it.
>>54912467
Its a massive cpu bottleneck - total war (even with the benefits of DX12) is ultimately cpu bound.
>>54912576
Ashes absolutely murders my custom air cooled 290x - expecially when overclocked. I'm talking a good 20c increase across the board (heh) when running DX12. When vega and zen drop i'm planning to do a total system rebuild and have a custom loop (and I also plan to stick the mobo in the loop for vrm cooling as i'm an overclocker).
>>54910139
>months
Anon it's been almost a year.
I got my Fury X in October of 2015.
if youre actually interested in keeping prices low and competitive then give the nvidia shilling a break
cus at 85% gpu marketshare, when amd inevitably dies you will see nvidia charge wacom-like prices for their cards due to monopoly
also i was under the impression 480 was 200 dollars and 2 of them could beat a 1080 cus that's what they literally presented the gpu as
dunno where op his getting his prices from
>>54912648
Yeah, I've heard that Ashes on DX12 mode is an absolute killer for heat. That's why I adore it as a benchmarker.
Some people would complain that if its not typical of the average game, you shouldn't use it to benchmark - but at the end of the day, it IS a game and it IS being treated as such by the devs.
Its games like Ashes that SHOULD be used to benchmark how well a card overclocks or handles thermal throttling because you'd quickly push cards like the GTX1080 to its limit and see it for the throttling shit it is before five minutes is even up.
By pressing cards against a tough requirement as a baseline, you only allow yourself breathing room for the lighter tasks which aren't as demanding and make sure that if it comes up against something hard, it can handle it.
So yeah, like I say, that's part of why I love Ashes. It's a great way to know if your OC is stable. You're completely right about that.
As for the custom loop thing; I totally recommend it. Though after dealing with the hassle of removing the Fury X cooler, I'd definitely recommend looking for an air cooled card to put the block on.
It's not that the cooler was the worst thing ever to remove, but I had a bad screw in one spot and had to get rough. At least with air cooled cards you wouldn't also have that dangling, heavy weight making it awkward to work with.

Actually, it HAS been a year. I got my Fury X on release day; June 24th.
I mean, sure, its still half a month off, but for chump change, it may as well have been a year ago now.
~550€ in Europe. Anyone who spends that much on a single GPU will probably go straight to the 1080, or have a 980 Ti already. Poorfags will probably wait for the RX 480 or 1060.
>>54910537
More like 200, with the option of 300w
>>54912742
>Yeah, I've heard that Ashes on DX12 mode is an absolute killer for heat.
Well it tortures GCN in particular due to its leveraging of async compute - all that idle hardware is now suddenly demanding power and the heat that comes with that. On said custom cooled 290x I rarely see vrm hit 80c - on ashes I saw it soar to over 100c (overclocked).
In fact the card I would love to see some thermals for is the msi 390x - that card must have a 400w bios to handle the insane voltage it uses at stock and good lord I dread to think what ashes does to it.
Check out my hot clocks on my Founders edition card, that temp on the right is after 5 hours of Witcher 3 and dan speed at 65%.

Yes, there's seven fans, that's all the fans there are. No fan at the bottom, not push/pull.
At least its not... well...
>>54912906
The windowed variant allows for a fair bit more noise than the non window one, since it obviously hasn't got the big sound padding. Also, all the vents are open. So there's that as well.
It's not loud at all though. Hell, it could be me mistaking the fans for the pump.
I'm about to tune it and find out.

You got a D5 pump my man, turn that shit down all the way. In my setup here (before I pulled the 290x out for the 1080), the pump is at zero on the dial and the fans at 700 RPM. the 4770k and 290x never get above 50 and they are both overclocked.
Loudest thing in my case is the 5400RPM hard drive but that will change when my EK water block gets here. I also got a SIlent Star hard drive waterblock that is made to silence out hard drives.

GTX1070 is somewhere between 30-40% faster while being 65% more expensive.
If Nvidia would lower the price to be somewhere near the 300 mark, the 480 would have no chance. Otherwise the 480 will pretty much be the biggest bang for the buck and I would rather get a 480. Especially since it's already fast enough for everything in 1440p ultra.

AMD has a 32GB version of the FirePro W9100, you know?
That's gotta be the most powerful card on the planet in terms of graphics RAM.
32GB GDDR5. Imagine crossfiring 4 of those, or even 2-3. Hell, even a single one is insane.
I can't really believe that NVidia will be able to compete with something like that. Their closest equivalent, the Tesla K80 is the same price ($5K), and it only offers 24GB.
And the Tesla doesn't have output, I don't even think.
The W9100 32GB model has 6 mini-DP for excellent display walls, and built-in EyeFinity.
I mean, I'm not shilling, but with specs like that, I can't figure why I'd ever consider NVidia for when I do a mega-build. NVidia also turns double-highs into dual-GPU cards, meaning there's only a benefit of SLI-ing 2 of them, whereas you can Crossfire 4 W9100s if you wanted.

The W9100 is an absolute beast at what it is designed for but lets be realistic here - you don't just slap that into a system and let it roll, it needs serious consideration for airflow to tame its power draw (and subsequent TDP).
>I can't figure why I'd ever consider NVidia for when I do a mega-build
For the firepro specifically Nvidia has a truly staggering software advantage with CUDA being very, very well supported (and some software being CUDSA only for gpu acceleration) which is what keeps Nvidia on top.
That said opengl/cl is gaining serious traction and with the sort of horsepower we are likely to see from the next firepro cards (especially if they have dense HBM2 modules - think 64gb vram+ with over 1tb/s bandwidth) its going to be hard to ignore AMD with in the face of the software advantage Nvidia has.

This console optimization is a meme. Console software has less overhead, and less resource used then PC hardware would on the same hardware. Console optimization doesn't allow 350 dollar toasterboxes to match high pc gpus benchmarks.
For instance PS3/8800 GT were both priced around 599, but PS3 could never play games like Tomb Raider at 1080p like 8800gt could. Optimization can't hide a performance gap if both hardware run the same software.

OP you should really kill yourself either if you are being paid or if are just a nvidia sperglord.
You lot ruined this board. Amdrone should follow suit and off themselves. We are here to read comparisons and discuss among oursleves, unbiased readers, what should be the best hardware at each price point. Going all the way to simple e-peen bragging rights dpwn to value/perf sweet spots.
There's no merit in this daily banter you all put up. Even that, it's not daily, it's by time zones. If you check this chan 3 to 5 times a day you'll find another rehash of these moronic threads.
fuck you all.
>>54919617
14nm is a pretty big deal, anon. It produces less heat, uses less power and takes less space.
So, I have a 280X. Would a 480 be a good upgrade? The price point vs performance seems right for me.
>>54919684
Eh, sort of.
Smaller nodes means more chips per wafer, but it also means less of the chips are functional. Well depending on the process tech's success rate.
So the cost of each chip is a balance between those two.

I keep flip-flopping on the 1070 vs 480. I don't have a card at the moment (not really, have my gtx 480 I can throw in) so I'm waiting until at least the end of June before I buy one.
The problem gets complicated because I have a freesync monitor. So far playing without vsync is pretty great and gsync is fucking expensive. I got my 1440p freesync monitor for $400.
So what would you do in my situation? Go with the 480, maybe upgrading to Vega when that comes out and keep the freesync monitor.
Or go with the 1070, sell my freesync monitor and buy a gsync one.
Or go with the 1070 and keep my freesync monitor.

The 480 reg already performs at Fury levels, what makes you think 480X will be that low?
Also even 390 was only $100 more than 380. If that trend continues, 490 will debut between $300 and $330.
If performance scales, accordingly, it has a good shot to outperform 1070, too.
Also

Kek, they'll have to get them in Stock first, homie.

That is because the used card market has effectively been murdered by the polaris announcement.
>>54921934
And AMD bros, don't be disappointed if/when 490x comes up just short, or (preferably) barely ahead, of 1080
Looking at how cards traditionally scale on this arch, the 490X will likely sit a just a slight touch above/below it. However, considering previous gen pricing, this makes sense.
Fury successors (Vega) will be the ones that surpass 1080, completely, and likely compete closely with 1080 ti.
>>54922031
Vega would be a monster even if you simply scaled the fury x (i.e use the space provided by the smaller node to add more cores to reach the die size of the fury x) - let alone any of the improvements GCN4 brings.

i7 593k at 3.5ghz with an RX 480 pushed 34.2fps in 1080p AoTS bench shown at Computex.
i7 4790k at 4.7ghz with an R9 290 pushes out 34fps in the same bench and equal settings.
Massive difference in CPU scaling and Polaris still comes out ahead. The card is faster than the R9 290X. Its faster than the tweaked R9 390 which is AMD's base line for entry level VR.

Only niggers and poorfags buy AMD.
But let's be objective:
So far AMD has been blowing smokescreens. The polaris doesn't appear so phenomenal. These are nothing more than cheap, mid-range options which will probably be slightly better than the 390.
Since the 290x, AMD has yet to come out with something better at this price range.

Will the 480 honestly be close in power to the 980ti? I'm so close to finishing my first build in years and I'm stuck on picking a GPU. My whole i5 build with a 1080 is only $1200, I almost want to bite the bullet.
are you playing in 4k or 1440p?
1440p 480x in great enough
for 4k, just wait next year or get the 980ti as long as you reduce some settings.

>>54909949
Sorry but from all the stats that have been released so far, AMD has by far the best bang for buck graphics card coming out.
>>54924121
I'm only half-understanding that because I'm retarded. I'm assuming FP16 is Floating Point 16 (even if I don't know what that is). What I'm getting from the gist of it is that AMD might be pulling some sneaky shenanigans when it came to the AotS test, to make their 480 seem better, is that it?
Say it ain't so, I was looking forward to trying an AMD card.
>>54913167
480 is actually only $200, it's even better price performance than that.
AMD is going to totally dominate the budget market with this card.
>>54924166
Its the other way around - Nvidia might be rendering at lower precision to get a higher framerate at the possible expense of image quality.
>>54924216
So what exactly is FP16/32/64? I've never been clear on exactly what that is.
So it's possible that the 1080 is actually doing worse than the numbers nVidia are putting up are showing?
>>54924544
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating-point_format
All we need to care about is the bigger the number (i.e FP64) = harder for the gpu to calculate (and is thus, slower than smaller values).
>So it's possible that the 1080 is actually doing worse than the numbers nVidia are putting up are showing?
Yes and no - the 1080 is merely rendering what it is told to, it is the software (in this case, Nvidia's driver) thats telling the gpu to cheat.
>>54924933
So it's possible that once things are sorted and it's evened out that either side could go up or down?
I guess there's still nothing to do except wait until about a week after June 29 and see what all the nerds in their various benchmarking setups reveal.
I'm still interested in the 480, though, despite what everyone says. It'll be a HUGE step up from my GTX 760, and even if it doesn't match the nVidia's counter-card, odds are it'll still be a fuckton cheaper. I don't plan on Crossfiring anything, but since I plan to play on pleb-tier 1080@60, I don't think I need much more than one anyway.

Everyone knows this though. Even my amd shill friends have admitted than the 1070 is the most bang for the buck.
Also rumor has it that the 8gb 480 will be £250-280 for aftermarket cards compared to £320 for the 1070. The 1070 is clearly the better value, in this country anyway.

A custom cooled 1080 costs £680 instead of the "MSRP" of $599. This is about 70% higher than the "MSRP".

The "MSRP" of the 1070 is $379 so it should cost about £440.

>Comparing the Classified edition price with the MSRP.
Do you have brain damage or just baiting?
Classified edition uses top bin parts, and is the highest clocked out of the box card from EVGA.
It's like comparing a Porsche 911 with a Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
>>54928684
American prices do not include tax. Yes we pay a little over the odds in the UK but the prices aren't as bad as you're making out.
For instance, the founders edition is $699, That's £481.69, if you add VAT that's £578.03. So as not to compete with the GTX 980 Ti they've added about £40 to the price.
The 1070 will be about £399 for the founders edition and £350 for the OEM versions.
AMD has always had the same demographic.
If you want good performance but you're on a tight budget, you buy AMD.
They have never been a competitor in the high end market on either CPUs or GPUs. They're a mid-low end company who makes budget products for budget builds.
>>54928924
7990 was better than 680
290 was better than 770 and titan and 290x was better than 780 and titan
In all of 3xx vs 9xx series, AMD had better performance andbetter price until 980ti
AMD has always been the ''best GPUs until the ultra expensive, ultra useless'' top end market that only made up %1-2 of the market. It is just that their marketing sucks and they just doesn't seem to sell their better products against their overpriced, underperforming counterpart

More memory is usually for multiple monitors and higher resolutions. More memory is not usually aimed at games specifically unless you are running at higher resolutions (4K). 2 x 4Gb RX480's could quite feasibly beat a 1080 in AoS @ 1080. AMD's presentation did not show the resolution. But I am guessing 1920x1080 which would mean 2 x 4GB cards not 2 x 8GB cards so yes. $400 would be the cost. Everyone (well every Nvidiot that is) is assuming it needs to be the 8GB cards.
>>54929283
You need to verify it is 8 x 8 though. It might default to 8 x 4 or worse 4 x 4 for all you know. What model is it I may be able to find out.

Are you a nigger or a shill? These cards are designed for 1080p gaming and THAT'S IT, you fucktard.

So what brand would be best for getting an 1070 this early on? ASUS has always treated me well but I've never bought a new GPU so early after release. ASUS cards tend to sag a bit, though never enough to really cause concern. I can always use a nylon strap to support it anyway.
Just wondering, mostly, if trying to land an EVGA was worth the extra money, or if some other brand was preferred.
