>>55079510
Could the 490 end up being a mere $299?
The RX 480 has a lower VR score (6.3) than the GTX 970 (6.5) already. The RX 470 will be even slower.
>>55079784
They did say they were revealing GPUs in the up to $300 segment, and they haven't revealed anything at the end of that range yet.
>>55079437
They somehow managed to design a gpu for consoles which became obsolete the moment it was put in the consoles.

There is no rx490 and vega will not be rx490. The rx470 and rx480 are for gamers, the $300+ tier is enthusiast.
>>55079485
The RX 470 uses a slightly cut-down version of the chip in the 480, and won't be far off it in performance as a result. The 480 matches a 980, so the 470 should match a 970.
I think AMD is taking too much time giving a response to the 1070 and 1080. We have to wait until October for the release of the 490. If you have a GPU that's as strong as a 290 or better, then the 480 is not a compelling choice. The 1080 is overpriced so that leaves people with the choice of either getting a 1070 now or waiting 3 months to save about $100 or so. I understand Polaris is not meant to be a high-end card, but it seems like it's capable of good performance. They could've released a superpowered Polaris for $300 that performs at about Fury X/980 Ti levels and I bet tons of people would gladly buy that card.

calm your tits and wait, only the 1080 and 1070 are out. jesus, you fucking fanboys are the worst.
The only reason I have an Nvdia is because a lot of games are optimized for it, AMD might have more core or faster clock speed, but in the end some games performs better on Nvidia
>>55079161
who fucking cares
the 970 will be the new 770 (ie a gimped brick) by the time it's out
>>55080155
the 480 is a compelling choice. I have an R9 290, and I'm grabbing a 480 as a stop gap until Vega 11 next year. Should give me slightly better overall performance and lower my power draw some. This should mean that my computer room/office isn't a fucking sauna. Besides that I could pick up a second 480 later if I want before Vega 11 and get better performance in games with the ability to use it.

You'd do a better job of making that point using benchmarks from current gen cards.

Now you too can have performance from years ago!!!!!
>>55084424
Everything we've seen so far points to the 480 performing similarly to the 980. Some sources are putting it slightly ahead, others are putting it slightly behind. We can also expect the card to overstock very well, given that power efficiency is one of the focal points of Polaris. Given an 8-pin adapter, I have no doubt that Polaris will clock 25% higher, given what we've seen AMD do with Fury X to turn it into Nano. I'm confident that the process will be reversible with the 480, giving more performance on a larger power budget.
>nuuh-uuh
Whatever tripfag. I've seen you posting various times before and never paid you any mind, but with as useless a post as "nuuuh-uuh" is, I think I can safely assume that you're completely useless. Thanks for identifying yourself. You will now be categorized alongside in elite.

>currytech
I want Polaris to succeed, but let's not kid ourselves. It will probably be better than the 970/390, but that's about it. Having a card that can OC and deprecate the entire GPU lineup for $200 would be incredible and they would have definitely mentioned that instead of going with more AotS bullshit. If anything, you should be excited for fatter Polaris. Their full variant will definitely deliver performance very close to the 1070 for $80 less. That is, if we're getting fat Polaris. The RX480 is already the XT and the RX470 is the Pro. If so, I'm lost with how they've mentioned a $300 price range. Adding 4GB to the 480 doesn't translate to a $100 price increase.
>>55079807
The Steam VR test is incredibly reliant on CPU hyper threading
Can you guess whether or not the CPU used for the 480 has hyperthreading?
>>55080155
85% of the GPU market buys within the $100-$300 range
>>55085203
>significantly weaker than what people were saying it was going to perform like (r9 fury <-> 1070)
Benchmarks show it performs similar to an R9 Fury, depending on clock speeds.
>scores lower in VR testing than a generation old gtx 970
Driver issue. Or they tested an RX 470 and didn't realise it.
>costs £240 for a stock sapphire card
Where did you get that price? Afaik, we only have AMD's prices ($200 for 4GB version / $230 vor 8GB version)
>the same price as used 980's which can overclocked to 980 ti levels of performance
You can't buy used 980s at $200. Stop spreading lies, you shill.
>a benchmark showed it running a 92°c whilst running 3dmark, so it has massive heat output
Are you talking about the benchmark where the guy removed the cooler to get around the NDA? I wonder why that card ran hot...
Just wait the two weeks until release or at least until we have more leaked info and benchmarks.

>>55085364
And I still believe it will perform in game between a 980/Fury, from what I have seen from new architectures and die shrinks I think he severely underestimated the performance boost. The difference between a 390 and a Nano is a good 25-30%. Pascal is just Maxwell on a die shrink and it performs ~25% better than previous cards
I think he was just covering his ass by lowballing it so he didn't look like a fool if AMD made a shit architecture
>>55085364
It's funny how they all jumped to deny this one reddit post from some guy who did his own calculations and predicted it to be just above r9 390 levels. He was getting constant abuse from r/amd niggers and they were all saying it was going to he r9 fury levels. Suddenly adored tv comes out with his vid and says it's going to be like a 290x and they're all cheering because muh value, only because adored tv said it.

>>55085366
Citation needed? Do you live under a rock? There are leaked benchmarks everywhere.
Adored did an analysis based on the AotS benchmark that shows the 480 is slightly slower than a 980. Wccftech just released leaked benchmarks that put the card slightly ahead of the 980. At this point, it's completely reasonable to assume that's about how the card performs.
>>55084985
>>55085059
wccftech has been on point with all the polaris news. Even the shitty Videocards site has even been correct so far.
>>55085559

>>55085603
Prove me wrong then? Please, explain to me why an average Joe casual who thinks assassins creed is goty and spends money on fifa points will actively research pc components and build his own pc when he can goto Walmart and pay $450 for a "4k capable VR console" and still play fifa and cawadoody. The xbox will be significantly more powerful than any pc you can get at that $450 price range. Even a cheap $200 480 will perform worse than the console at half the price (for the gpu alone) since the console is predicted to be $450 and it's already confirmed it's using a vega rx 490. Buying polaris will literally be a downgrade but you'll ultimately be paying more for that downgrade.

Uhhh, they don't even make CPUs that can hit a teraflop yet. So it's probably using a modified 480 that hits like 5.7 teraflops with the rest of that coming from the CPU. It's pisses me off because I just made a computer with about 3 teraflops of power that cost 500$ and it's about to get wrecked by a console.
>>55085529
They've never cooled as well or done it as quietly, but those cards are usually much hotter and the 480 seems to run at 60C so this might be a reference card that is bareable to use

>>55085141
You do realize the GTX 970 is worst than a R9 390.

The 480 is a mid range card so no HBM. The 1080 is a enthusiast card, but the rumor is HBM scarce so it did not get HBM.

You do know that amd make piss poor money from consoles right? I think I read somewhere that they only make like £55 per £250 console sold. They're barely making anything at all from these current consoles and by allowing Microsoft to make this new console at such a low price point and very powerful hardware they're removing the incentive for anyone who wants to build a budget pc with polaris.
>>55086086
They're never much. You don't think either Nvidia or AMD is going to put out a chip at half speed, do you?

The incentive would be that you can do things on PC you cant do on console, and that's ignoring the obvious paywall to use online features. Don't forget this new series just started and they haven't even given us much details on Vega yet, which is of course more powerful than Polaris.
>>55086294
>performance envelope --> target a clock speed
You don't understand that clock speed = performance?
A given chip is going to need a certain voltage to reach a certain clock speed, which, with its leakage, is going to determine its power draw. Needing a crap ton more power to achieve slightly greater clocks does NOT indicate that this will be an overclocking champion. Quite the opposite, it says it is just about maxed out.

like i said, the fact that the new xbox will be a midrange pc at release sporting a 6.2 tflop gpu removes that incentive. it's common knowledge that that the average joe would rather buy a console + laptop/macbook than buy and build a desktop pc. also digital foundry have all but confirmed the xbox is using vega based on microsofts own performance numbers.

At stock clocks maybe. Mine is hitting 11k at Firestrike 1.1
I only care about the high-end cards, and since amd won't make a good highend card, nvidia is the only option
>>55086407
high leakage chips overclock farther, in point of fact.

So why even comment here? You're going to have to do better than that if you want to start a fight.

Where are AMD's cards to compete with 1080 and 1070?
>>55086850
This is a bit embarrassing. They actually can't make cards to compete with the 1080 and 1070...
>>55079161
Sorry OP but it is more likely to perform like the 960
>>55086850
confirmed for 2017 at the earliest, predicted to be around fall 2017. if you're in need right now just buy a 1070 and be done with these threads for the next 3 years till you want to upgrade again and feel like shitposting.

this is a good attempt at recovering from your loses.

This was edited, the original says ATI
Noice colorful cards died before the acquisition
I wonder why they purposely ignore the colored Nvidia cards? Even today you can find cards in different color schemes, though it's a far cry from those older days
>>55086850
>>55086873
If I can't provide HBM2 for my customers we will wait until the time is right and I refuse to sell them 5x for $650
>>55086850
forget the 1080 and 1070. NVIDIA shipped GP100 with 16GB of HBM2 already back in april. if AMD can't even compete with the 300mm2 GP104 midrange junk, how are they going to compete when GP100 yields are acceptable for the masses?
>>55087215
>GP100
>masses
What have you been smoking senpai?
G*100 chips have been destined to halo products since the Fermi fiasco, you won't ever find them in cards costing less than a 1000 USD
With the current Nvidia pricing it wouldn't be surprising that GP100 cards would retail at 2500+ and GP102 at 1000+
>>55080181
AYYYYYY
I doubled my money with AMD, I bought at $2.22 and pulled out at $4.50, I seriously hope if keeps going up for you bud. Good job
>>55079450
>trusting "industry benchmarks" when nvidia pays game developers millions to tesselate surfaces outside/underneath the viewable game world
>>55087246
>you won't ever find them in cards costing less than a 1000 USD
the gtx980ti and gtx780 were $650, the 780ti was $700
>>55087246
nvidia engineer here
gp100 goes straight to Tesla gpgpu cards iirc
no gamer garbage gets binned from gp100
>>55087256
Wait doesnt that hurt performance for everyone?
>>55087292
AMDiscount are notoriously bad at tesselation
>>55079161
If 470 only used 100watts, will 460 used less than 80watts?
Also what is the price point for both cards?
This is important because I need a lot of them.
>>55087269
Neither of those have the full G*100 chip, it has always been reserved for the Titan series
>>55087289
This makes sense, Nvidia's compute line is long overdue for a new arch
But then what makes GP102? It would be surprising it not being a binned GP100 chip

>tfw poor college student

I could have more than double my money and saved some cash for a full new build. Fuck, I couldn't even do it, since I used quite a lot of it during those months.
>>55087292
It does, as Witcher 3 and Batman Arkham Asylum proved, but Nvidia equips it's cards with more hardware tessellation units, suffering less of an impact
>>55087393
>it's nvidia's fault their cards are better equipt
amdrones sounding like the shit that console plebs were going on about when the ps4 had gddr5 and the xbox had ddr3. xbox fans blaming ps4 because their games were running into vram bottlenecks due to games being targeted at the much more capable vram in the ps4 and ported over and tweaked for the shitty ddr3 in the xbox, causing some bottlenecks and thus shitty performance.
>>55087527
There's literally no visual benefit to such retarded levels of tesselation, the only purpose for it it's to gimp the competition while gimping their own cards
You should go back to >>>/v/
>>55087547
you fags keep going on about that once crysis game and keep telling me that nvidia did it yet no one has provided any legitimate sources where anyone from nvidia or the dev team have come forward and said nvidia were behind it.
until i have actual solid proof that nvidia developed this game and added all this tessellation, i have no reason to believe that it's anything more than shitty devs.
Nvidia on reduced market share watch
>forcing gpus to do completely unnecessary calculations
>reducing performance of your own customers to spite an already losing competitor
>people defend this
This is why I ditched my 780s after owning them for only 6 months, nvidia thinks its good business to hold back efficiency and performance updates for the next generation while electricity prices are sky rocketing all over the world

The fucking photo is real. The thing is the guy slapped lightning cooler on top of RX 480 to avoid NDA. The scores he got in Firestrike Ultra are the same as in >>55085218
>>55087596
>anyone from nvidia or the dev team have come forward and said nvidia were behind it
What a great goy, or should I say, shill?
Anyways, they been doing this since Crysis 2, and it has been verified by independent journalists/people, not by people directly related to the scam companies
Witcher 3 is the greatest latest example since it also cripples Maxwell cards, and it's literally impossible to appreciate any difference, even pixel peeping
Nvidia does hairworks at 64x, while there's no appreciable difference after 8x
The only way to tune how much tessellation is done is through drivers on AMD cards, Nvidia cards suffer even more of a performance hit thanks to this
>>55087764
>Not being able to see the difference between x8 and x16
>>55087815
>>55087764
>and it has been verified by independent journalists/people
like who? adored tv? this means nothing and certainly doesn't mean nvidia did any of this. all the evidence that has been presented make it look like its more the devs fault that it is nvidia's. please, take off that tinfoil hat.
>>55085366
Kill yourself Nvidiashill.
>>55087393
Arkham Asylum didn't even have tessellation.
I think you mean arkham city or origins (Arkham Knight runs beautifully in my R9 390 so that game can't have that problem)
>>55087815
>>55087817
There's a small difference between them at the edges and in the hard lines. It's not worth the 4x performance drop though.
The make and break will be how close the 480 will get to the 1070. Vega is coming in too late to compete with the 1070 & 1080 so the consumer has to decide if the 480 is enough for him and saves some money or if he rather wants the power of the 1070 and is willing to pay quite some more for it.
People who are eying the 1080 would never settle for 480 and waitfags who are willing to pay so much for a gpu are guaranteed to get the 1080TI instead of anything AMD has to offer.
On the other hand the 1060 and 1050 are already dead unless Nvidia does a miracle.
Did you hear about it guys.
Xbox 4K is just a regular Xbox with an upscailer to 4k resolution.
There is no need to shell out 1K for a gpu.
>>55088182
>upscaler*
>>55087385
If it makes you feel better I just lost a $700 pair of headphones
>>55088182

Memlad
>>55088206
You should see the anons justifying how great will be.
Like niggers buy $200 laptop that can do 720p,controller and a $20 chink upscaler and you are done.
>You'll probably only be able to see the flaws in the textures more clearly though
Oh i love the internet
>>55088182
I was joking about it not playing games in 4K and only using it for media playback, but if that's true, that's hilarious.
>>55088248
What i find more funny is that teens here that still take money from their parents fight over expensive cards and autistic people take this shit seriously .
They actually go and buy 1K cards while we all know that will be playing low rez console ports for the next decade at least and that the current GPUs you guys have are probably enough for it.
>>55080155
you described me
>>55079510
The 490 will release in oktober.
new consoles will enable higher quality games on pc finally
>>55088422
>Xbox One S will upscale games to a 4K resolution as well as supporting 4K video playback, Xbox marketing exec Aaron Greenberg has confirmed.
>upscale
sure they will
what's the point of video cards this powerful when modern video games are trash?
>>55088422
yes because all pc games are ports of console games
>>>/v/341417517
stupid question, but as long as I am using an old 1680x1050 monitor should I give a fuck about new new generation at all? Or would a high tier card of the last gen be enough?
>inb4 kill yourself
>>55088894
consoles still play at 1280x720 so i would say you are set for quite some time
>>55088933
update your mammaries bro
you're stuck in 2013
>>55088631
>yes because all pc games are ports of console games
I had to play Witcher 3 to find out this is completely true.
I waited till this GOG summer sale to get it, and I can only imagine the anger some little v-tards felt about being lied to by their video game maker heroes.
>>55088950
not ports just downgrades.
>>55088947
name a console that has all titles in 1008p
If the 480 is faster than a 970 then i'm gonna upgrade. 3.5gb of meme ram is just not enough for my new 1440p screen, and i'd prefer to wait for volta next year for true HBR2.
>>55085233
>telling the enemy of your plans so they can plan for it
>not being as vague as possible and catching nvidia with their pants around their ankles instead
That's why you're not working for either company.
I just found a gtx980 second hand for €350.
I guess reality is catching up with nvidiots.
>>55089001
The PS3
>>55086850
>>55086873
and why should they when 95% of Steam gamers game @ 1080. Go where the money is and selll in larger volume. It's the law of economics. They don't give a shit about Nvidia's 5% 'premium' range.
>>55090723
are you telling me that current gen PS4 doesnt have all games in 1080p?
wow
As i said get upscaler and you are set
>>55090746
That would require AMD's cards to be fast enough for 1080p first.
>>55087352
Fuck off butt miner
>>55090760
The RX480 is guaranteed to do >60fps with any game 1080p.
>>55079450
/thread
I gave up on AMD after Fiji and Bulldozer (trust us, next gen will be 3x better, then it finally launches and disappoints everyone again and they say, sorry, maybe drivers or next time guys)
I am sold.
560ti -> RX480 for me.
>>55090791
lets hope this is true. would be the go to card for me
