>That voltage

AMD is a fucking joke, that voltage is higher than a stock GTX970.
Too much for 14nm.
>>
>>55267050
Because this is a different chip and FinFETs on top of that, they have less leakage so less of a voltage range.

This is all just made to save money, but just breeds bad press, they could have scrapped everything over 1.1V and generally have lower power consumption across the board, but they probably target everything up to 1.17V so they don't have to scrap chips that don't make the 1.11V cut, but the bad side is that more hungrier chips will be out.

Note that this 1.15V is overclocked in the OP

That's is still pretty high for a card with that performance on a shrink node.

A GTX 970 at 900.2 core clock runs at 0.9310v
at 696.4 core clock it runs at 0.8500v
>>
>>55267131
Which explains why those PCBs are carrying those heavy power phases relative to the die size. Seems AMD fucked up.
>>
>>55267131

I guess we will find out soon, personally on a 670 so either way i need a upgrade.
>>
>>55267131
what voltage @1500mHz?
>>
>>55267131
What's the voltage matter if the power consumption is low? Also as someone already said AMD is pretty liberal with its voltage ranges across all its GPU and CPUs to save cost, chances are pretty high this can be undervolted.

Also do take note that if the performance is 980-tier with around 110-120W at stock clocks, the card is still a good 60% more efficient than Maxwell, which is pretty much right there around Pascal
>>
>>55267178
Depends on the GPU, I can hit 1519 at 1.212V which is what is stock for most aftermarket cards but I can hit 1506 at 1.170v or 1506 at 1.150v if I keep the card below 55ÂșC which can only be done with watercooling.


Most cards can hit 1500 which is average without increasing voltage past the one provided by BOOST 2.0 itself, which is based on the ASIC quality and temperature, to get a card to provide more than 1.212v on stock clocks without modifying anything you need to get a really good silicon with a chip that could overclock to 1600mhz you get around 1.218.2v out of the box but you need really really good silicon we are talking more than 85% ASIC here which is super rare.

That 2k rpm at 58% is worrying though, but heatsink is tiny and nobody sane buys reference cards anyway.

Different applications or games will use different parts of the GPU, meaning in some games some parts of the GPU die, physical silicion is being unused, this isn't limited to GPUs only even CPUs do the same, modern Intel CPUs can idle down to 2watts which is lower than DDR3 RAM at 1600mhz on idle.

>gpu load 15-50%

>>
>>55267074
You're exposing yourself as a tech-illiterate retard my friend. Voltage is completely irrelevant compared between two different architectures. Skylake CPUs use higher voltages than Haswell CPUs (significantly more in fact, 1.45V is safe on air, which would have Haswell on fire) despite the drop from 22nm to 14nm. Despite that, they use less power under load than the Haswell chips, even with the slightly higher TDP that's entirely down to the stronger iGPU.
>>
>>55267340
what?

yes it is still high end card because it was going for $400+ when it came out

Not we have proof the 480 doesn't even overclock further than 10% and none of you idiots are even mentioning it.

150w is a TDP, AMD usually rates it for a maximum TDP while Nvidia is for a minimum.

>>55267675
This is all a result of AMD overhyping the thing. The moment they announced it AMD fanboys went batshit crazy with shit like "NVidia on life support" and "AMD wins this one." Now that specs and performance is leaking though the card is looking weaker than anticipated, and NVidia fanboys are latching on to this as meaning that AMD is shit.

Personally the RX 480 hasn't shocked me yet. It is what I expected it to be, a decent mid-range card. It'll dominate in the 1080p market but will come short of being a real player in 1440p setups. I did hold out on getting my GTX 1070 in case the hype for the RX 480 turned out to be true, but honestly I was also just holding out for cheaper cards and, well, for the cards to actually be in stock.

According to Nvidia their current lineup goes 1080, 1070, Titan X, 960, 950, 750ti, 730, 710, 210.

Right now a 960 is their mid-range. 950 is the low end. 750ti is the bargain basement gaming card. 1070 is high end and the 1080 is the flagship card.

The 960 sells for $180-240 new. The RX 480 will stomp it while undercutting the price of the 4gig. Nvidia needs a new midrange card fast.

OH, it's relevant. I have two systems using the same 550W PSU. One has a 2500k and a GTX 960, the other has an FX-6300 and a GTX 560. Guess which system overdraws the PSU and crashes?

Nvidia went full retard on making their cards look power efficient with Maxwell's power management bullshit. Don't even pretend otherwise

>>55267539

~1600MHz was just the base clock, the card ran at 1800-1900MHz in actual games, getting an extra 100-200MHz in real-world boost clock to hit over 2GHz is just 10-15% OC, which is not impressive in any way.

>>55267340
kinda stupid, but flying around in the city is probably the easiest load on the card, especially on "medium" (the lowest video setting)
considering that it's supposed to be between the gtx 970 and the 980 that kind of a lot at 60 fps capped is pretty expected.
my 970 gets about 60% load with everything but anti aliasing and post processing maxed out at 1440p

The two things are literally called "Base clock" and "Boost clock"

Hold up

I have a 7870 and an el cheapo asus 144hz monitor

>>
>>55268984
The idea here is that THE STOCK SETTINGS ON ANY CARD ARE BY DEFINITION....WAIT FOR IT...THE STOCK SETTINGS.

An overclock is CLOCKING THE CARD HIGHER THAN STOCK SETTINGS

Again, let me repeat THAT IF EVERY REFERENCE CARD SHIPS AT THE SAME CAPABILITY, ONLY GOING PAST THE STOCK SPEED IS IT OVERCLOCKING.

It's a third revision of the GPU and the 7th stepping of said revision, they usually release engineering samples as the A stepping, release products are either B or C revisions.
And this is a pretty late revision with a late stepping, this GPU could have been released literally a few months earlier baring some catastrophic voltage and clockspeed failure.

depends on the game and your cpu
remember that amd has MUCH higher cpu usage in DX11 games. so in cpu demanding games (or pretty much any game getting over 100 fps) your cpu matters more with AMD

From what I've read, 120W is normal consumption. Considering TDP is 150W, it won't throttle even when boosting/reasonably overclocked.

>>55266869
Power efficiency won't improve with custom cards. Honestly, thus far I haven't seen a reason to get a custom 480. However, the reference 470 might be gimped by its TDP, if it's only 110W.

>>55267323
Oi, cunt, u avin a giggle m8? GTX-X60 and RX-X80 are midrange.

Sapphire/ASUS actually release 390X that were more efficient, and not by a small amount, because they bothered to undervolt them and still have a slight clockspeed increase.
More AIBs should do this for AMD since they cant be bothered to scrap high leakage chips and want to ruin their reputation for a few bucks.

No way, maximum power draw of AMD cards is close to the TDP?

Inconceivable.
>>
>>55268770
>But far from a "178W maximum"
If you knew a single thing about physics, you'd know that max power draw isn't a very relevant thing by itself. You can easily get different values for it depending on the timescale you use, because power depends on time. You could potentially get ridiculous values for power if you reduce the timescale to very low levels (~picosecond) and observe electron avalanches.

AMD was literally never brought up in this entire comment chain by anyone else other than you, this only highlights your stupidity. I'm accusing you of being a fanboy because you ignore reality in order to pretend that NVIDIA's products OC better than they actually do. On top of that you're completely unwilling to change your point of view despite evidence to the fact that you are wrong being widely available. You do not appear to be interested in the truth, you are interested in pretending that NVIDIA's products OC better than they actually do in practice and ignore facts that point to the contrary. So you are a fanboy, a pretty dumb one at that.

1120 Mhz (base stock) vs 1322 Mhz (oc)

~18% OC. I'd assume with after market, this could go up to 30% max, 1450 Mhz (max).
