4k vs QHD is not worth the extra $1200. Also, you are delusional if you think you can play dx12 games in 4k with SLI 1080s.

Why get a GPU that only performs well on last gen games?

I wouldnt be surprised if the 480 beats out the 1080 years from now. We've seen it time and time again with Nvidia cards, they only last a year.

Spending $200 for 3 years on new GPUs is still $100 cheaper than getting the 1080.

current nvidia drivers support back to the 8000/200 series (10 years ago). current AMD drivers only support back to hd7000, which was released 3 1/2 years ago.

>4 year old 290s are still relevant.

since when? AMD lost the majority of their market share and cards like the 970 destroy the 290 and it's rebrands in price, performance and perf/watt.
>>
>>55209935
I said bracket for a reason. There's a lot of cards above the 480, there's only two below it. The 480 is below the middle of the generation by a lot. You just have to look at how everybody is comparing this card to last generation cards instead of current generation cards to know that this card is not competing on performance, because it is low end.

If the leaks are right, the 1060 will be 480 tier, the 1060 ti will be above the 480, the 1070 is above the 480, the 1080 is above the 480, the 1080 ti will be above the 480, and then there will likely be a card or two above the 1080 ti. We have to use Nvidia because AMD doesn't have their full lineup out for a long time yet, but that's 5-6 cards above the 480, and only two below it. That seems to be on the low end to me.

This is a very good argument.
Kind of how I rationalized going with 6600k over i7 even though it's "only 100 more." I figure that 100 could go toward buying a better CPU down the road, even if it doesn't last quite as long as the i7.

Still on the fence about which GPU because I don't know if I want to do 1440 or just 1080, haven't even gone so far as looking at monitors either.

My shit rig:
http://pcpartpicker.com/list/TtQxr7
>>
>>55210089
I said one to two because sometimes Nvidia has one card above the x80 ti, sometimes they have more than one card above the x80 ti. Even with one card above the 1080 ti, then there are 5 cards above the 480, and only two below it. That's thoroughly low end.
>>
>>55210053
>If the leaks are right, the 1060 will be 480 tier, the 1060 ti will be above the 480,
Those cards don't exist and won't exist for months.
> the 1080 ti will be above the 480, and then there will likely be a card or two above the 1080 ti.
Same as above.

There's also several benchmarks where the 1070 comes in below last gen's flagship cards.

The RX 480 is square in the middle of performance for "new gen" GPUs.

7000 series was 5 years ago, and the 7970 is still competitive.

And market share has nothing to do with how good a card is. The 970 doesn't have much of a life span left.

i never said it did, it's just an objective fact that AMD puts out shit products. that's why they lost so much market share.

it's the most sold GPU in history, you should be much more worried about the AMD trash not having much life left considering they've been rebranded 3-4 times by now and devs aren't going out of their way to optimize for their architecture any longer because of it. just look at what happened to games like rise of the tomb raider and doom.

>>
>>55210290
Stop comparing it to last gen cards. You're only proving my point when you do that dipshit. For the 480 to be a mid range card, it has to be equidistant from the most powerful and least powerful cards OF THIS GENERATION. Stop trying to change the definition of middle.

>>55210372
>and if that oc well as the korean guy showed..well its going to be 2008 all over again..

not really, 4870 was a great card because AMD had an architecture that was extremely simple and allowed them to get equal gaming performance on dies that were 1/2 - 1/3 the size of nvidia's. AMD won't ever be able to replicate that with an architecture as complex as GCN.
>>
>>55210462
the graphics score THE GRAPHICS score

also pretty sure they already have done that since the last major update to the gcn was on 2013... and those rebrands are well ahead from their counterparts back then
not to mention they are ahead even now from the maxwell 2.0 competitors in most cases

fact is like it or not gcn ages like x10 better than anything serial nvidia has made..
there is a reason as to why an 780ti on aots is literally ahead of 980 till 2k
that card is literally the only thing that shows how well dx12 works on a superscala design instead on a serial one..
>>
>>55210415
>to showcase their improvements
Irrelevant. That would only be relevant if we're talking about how improved these cards are compared to last generation. We are talking about a COMPLETELY separate topic, which is the cards relative performance to other current generation cards.

>not to mention they are ahead even now from the maxwell 2.0 competitors in most cases

what? the 290 and 290x have REGRESSED in performance. they launched as $700 cards and now get outperformed by a $200 970.

>fact is like it or not gcn ages like x10 better than anything serial nvidia has made..

GCN is extremely far behind, actually... it's nearly half the perf/watt of NVIDIA's architectures. AMD has less than 25% of the gaming market and 0% of the GPGPU compute market because of how hard it has flopped.

an OCed 970 does beat a stock 980, that's why it was an amazing value when it launched and why it sold so well.

3.5 meme aside the 970 and 980ti will be relavent for years and are comparable in value and longevity to the 2500k and 2600k. we're not getting another die shrink for 3-4 years and the performance boost we got from 14nm was minimal.

Actual boost is 1478. In games it is stable at +250 Core but crashes in Firestrike. Probably can push the memory more. Max temp is 65 with ambient around 28

>>55211007

I don't think anyone is denying that the 970 isn't good value for money. It's just that the older AMD cards have aged better than keppler, 290(x) outperforming 780(ti) and 280X outperforming the 770 easily these days.

Getting really tired of these threads.

Polaris is supposed to carry the next iteration of GCN stream processors targeting a mainstream audience at a range of $100 to $300.
It was never meant to compete in the higher performance range.
The only real, and I type it loosely, benchmark we have of any Polaris card is the RX480 with Raja at Computex. Doing some numbers here and there, we can expect it to compete or maybe even surpass the 390 and the 970 for $200.
Recent events at E3 show the RX470 and the RX460. The former being cut down Polaris 10 judging from the PCB and the RX460 being Polaris 11. In other words, the RX480 is the highest performing card in the Polaris lineup.

Since they mentioned a range of $100-$300, it puts the RX460 at a $100 and the RX470 at about $150. The latter one is very interesting. If you remember, the 7850 was a pretty cute overclocker and it was cut Pitcarn(Pitcarn PRO). If the RX470 follows, then we might have a nice card that can match the RX480 with a little OC and $50 less, making it a killer at its price.
The RX480 on the other hand is definitely within the last generation of lower high end cards, possibly surpassing them. Benchmarks point to above 390x performance, but I'm personally skeptical about it. It will be another amazing price to performance card.

If you're running anything on or above the 970 or the 390, then I would be waiting for something like Vega or fatter Pascal. The truth is that while the 1070 is an amazing card for its price, it doesn't deliver all of the high frames at 1440p or 60fps on 4K. This lineup of Pascal is very disappointing and it feels like nothing new. Look at the true Pascal line, they're monstrous chips with HBM and all that good shit. We are stuck with these chips that aren't really anything new except a little better than the 980Ti.

Also, reminder that you should WAIT FOR BENCHMARKS.

New 970s go for $280+

290x launched at $550
290 launched at $399

New 390s (8 gig 290 rebrand that matches 970 in performance) go for $270+

The 970 gave us R9 290 performance for $330 at launch. At worst the 480 will give us that level of performance for $200 undercutting the 970's current price as much as it did the 290s launch price. That's not bad for the next card down on a new generation. At best the 480 will beat the 980s performance (980 launched at $550).

while 970 is basically the favorite graphics card of last gen gaming its really going to underperform on even the slightest VR. With the RX480 it promises to bring VR more in line with gaming budged gpus typically 2-300 dollars which consists of 80% of the market share. Anything more is less then 12 percent of enthusiast card but Nvidia is really trying to price gouge with the average card costing $500 its amazes me how they think their gpus are that superior to justify the prices.

not previous anon, but async compute post-processing inherently favors AMD, since Maxwell can't do it, and even Pascal only has finer-grained global preemption.

It's a minor but good technology to have that Nvidia *should* add at some point, but we probably won't see it in Volta till 2018 or so.

the 970 outperforms the 290, 290x and 390. it trades blows with the 390x (pic related).

we already saw from the 3dmark scores that the stock 480 is slower than the 970, the only hope AMD has is if the 480 has some insane OC headroom.

TPU are AMD shills, no surprise to see them falsifying data like this.

those benchmarks were proven fake idiot, the only valid ones we know of is the dumb reviewer who accidently uploaded his 3dmark result and AMD's official AotS benchmark they showed in their presentation.

1070 is the lowest bracket then.

in DX11:
1080 > 480 > 1070
in OpenGL
1080 > 480/1070
In DX12
480 >>> 1080 >> 1070


1070 is currently the lowend card.

Wait for AMD or get a gtx 980ti for 350 bucks?

I dont accept any rumor or leaked statistics and comparisons
Ill just wait for the release and the official numbers

1070 destroys the 480.

Let's be really honest here OP; you're a stupid fucking faggot.

In a single synthetic benchmark which it's known nvidia cheats on and has been since 2000.

So nothing then?

Things like this are why you are poor.

I have actually seen a stock 480 OC to get 3500 on fire strike ultra. That puts it in the r9 Fury (non-x) performance range.

Yes, that's not amazing but it's more than a 970 can do. The stock clock of the 480 puts it just behind the 980 in most games(-1-5%). You'll be able to stop making up numbers when you see the benchmarks yourself :P

For 230$, it's a very interesting card. The 1060 will also be an interesting card in the 200-300$ range, But we won't see that for a few months.

Likewise, anyone waiting for high-end AMD cards, you'll have to wait (if you're lucky) until november

Sorry, but there's just no way the 480 can go up against the 1070. That doesn't make the 480 a bad card though.

The 1070 is cut 300mm+ size die, the 480 is a 200mm+ size die.

You should expect to see the 1070 beat the 480 by 15-20% due to the difference in transistor count alone.

The 480 of couse is 50% cheaper than the 1070. Which puts it in prime position to win AMD marketshare. And believe it or not, AMD getting marketshare will help their higher end cards get higher performance as developers will be more likely to take the time to get to know the architecture a bit better!

The Vega chips will come, they will beat the 1080/1070 for a better price to boot, it's just going to take some time.

The 1080 for sure since it's at a retarded price, but don't count on Vega being any less than $600. We know it's carrying HBM2 and that is both scarce and expensive. The cards to look out for are any of the Polaris cards and the 1070 for a higher end card since the combination of these deprecate the entire GPU lineup. If Vega can run UHD at 60fps of 144p at 120fps then it's a card well deserved to be looked at.

Huh, mine is locked to only +37mV and 120% power target. What brand is yours?
>>
>>55218363
MSI 4G

I can go up to like +80mv but the power limit tops out at 110%

>>55218397
Maybe I will flash the bios of mine when the warranty is gone.

Should I go xfx for the warranty, or get a sapphire? Also, visiontek is a decent brand too, but which 480 should I get?
>>
>>55209425
How am i wasting my money if i NEED it? If I NEED it then it fullfils it purpouse. Question is rather, DO you need it?

RX 480 is enough for this generation of VR content, but probably not the next, which will come pretty fast (think just 2-3 years from now)
