Could a heavily overclocked AIB RX 480 for 300$ potentially humiliate a GTX 1070 FE? A friend of mine, who happens to be a huge nvidiot, is planning to buy a GTX 1070 FE and it'd be hilarious if this actually turns out to be true.

If the beast mode cards are a thing and they have massive power delivery and cooling, probably come within a few percent of the normal 1070.

That wouldn't be saying much. The reference cards (founders edition kiss my ass) are shit. In fact most 980Ti are better than the 1080 reference. So I wouldn't be surprised.

Guys, i need an advice

I need to make 10-15 PC builds for the startup gaming company (working in Unity, if it matters) that starts in July.

Do i include RX480 or do i go with 1XXX Nvidia?

No, the 480 PCB won't even be cabapble of decent overclocking due to stupid design choices
>power plane runs right under the GPU, every last bit of noise from your PC and other components are going to screw you
Why do you think AMD aren't even running over 1300mhz... nVidia could do that STOCK on 28nm.

480 is a joke waiting to happen.
Why do you think nVidia is charging a premium for the 1070, they KNOW AMD has a complete lemon on their hands.

Not the guy who needs to build em, but I've worked in one and seen how a few "gaming" startups work.

He should just get them rMBP. The project is doomed anyway.

I bet his CTO won'[t even know why he needs a FirePro/Quadro, not to mention the rest of code monkeys.

Unity can run good enough on Macs, and hey will make em fit into the whole startup cult.

Then give them all W7100s and a Xeon, who gives a shit.

They don't need something exotic as fuck, they just need something good so their 3d modelers and Animators don't wait hours in their software

1070FE is already $450 sticker and possibly more in actual availability.

Your friend is pretty much automatically humiliated regardless of what you do.

A stock 480 for $230 would have comparable price/perf if its even only 51% as fast as a 1070.
If it's 70% as good as expected, 1070 owners should question what they were thinking.
>>
>>55092449
just get the $200 card and overclock.

the point of the 480 is price/performance. it's not gonna beat a 1070. you'd have to be retarded to actually expect that

An RX480 with extra power connectors could compete with a 1070. I think the card itself can support much higher clocks but AMD were trying to shake off their 300w tdp reputation.

Why? He's working in Unity so 64 bit performance is irrelevant. He'd be better off getting cheap 9xx cards.

Im still wondering when the fuck the aftermarket fan setups are going to be out. I kinda wanna order all my parts before the 29th, thats when my Amazon prime free sub expires.

I really want an MSI 1080 but I dont know about the price, I was expecting them to be around the FE MSRP. So I may end up going with a 1070 then getting another one later to keep up with 1440, 60FPS.

a heavily OC'd 970 gets around an actual 20-25% boost in performance.

The Fury is around 33% over the 970

RX 480 has been shown to be just shy of a Fury

Even on water cooling it's hard to get above 1550mhz. The only way to actually beat it is LN2
>>
>>55103793
What is LN2 ?
>>
>>55100516
NDA doesn't lift until the 29th, so if anyone has them they arent saying.
>>
>>55103773
Your average 980Ti with aftermarket coolers are overclocked compared to the reference version. The reality is that an aftermarket 980Ti can beat a reference 1080 in certain situations.

In other words, beating a reference card is not such a big deal. People who buy reference cards are idiots.

the 470 is 5% slower than a 970, so the 480 is possible as fast as a regular 980

http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/radeon-rx-470-benchmarks.html
>>
>>55103989
>>55104002
All these benchmarks are worthless because we don't know the clock speeds of the Polaris cards.

According to rumours, the RX 480 runs with 1080 MHz stock clock and a 1260 MHz boost and has a lot of OC headroom.

That's probably why results from leaked benchmarks vary so much. Some benchmarks are done at stock speeds and some at boost speed.

But that's just speculation and the different results could also be due to improved drivers.
>>
>>55092449
did that retard insisting the 480 couldn't be clocked at 1266mhz and that it couldn't be over 5.5 tflops kill himself yet? or is he still trying to perform his 'simple math' with made up specs for the 1080 ti now?

you're either going to be retard-broke or get a quadro.

you can get an old thinkstation for cheap and toss a pair of 400 dollar quadro 6000's in there.

you can get a latest-line quadro M4000 for about 800.

i think quadro K4200's are going for like 500 or so on ebay.

might even be able to snag a K5000 for under a grand.

Nothing after the embargo is reliable either. People use various different drivers that either gimp some cards or enhance others. The 10x0 cards were tested with "press only" drivers; for all we know those drivers turned quality down so the test benchmarks show better speeds.
