New benchmarks coming in show the RX 480 can't even beat a GTX 970:

See pic, the Fire Strike score is significantly lower than a 970.
This thing is just plain garbage, you can even buy some 970s for $200 right now.
>>55281387
The score actually puts it between a 380 and a 380x, truly awful.
>>55281387
I fucking called it.
Never trust pajeet the con man.
>>55281387
Can you do it in English?
>>55281387
>hurr
The graphics score on the left is all that matters and that beats a 970. The overall score is dragged down by the shitty CPU. My 6700K scores 15K in the physics test and that one doesn't even manage 10K.
Nice try, shill.
>>55281467
Wow, damage control already? Face it pajeet, Nvidia has won yet another generation of GPUs.
>>55281467
Umm the 970 gets a 15730, while this gets 12467
>>55281473
If you're going to start throwing around accusations we're going to need more information, in English, because unlike you, i'm not a foreigner.
It also runs at 88 degrees and uses 147W, what a disaster.
>>55281476
>Umm the 970 gets a 15730
Keep dreaming. A 970 at 1600MHz gets 14.5K. At stock under 12K. Need to shill better than this if you're going to get paid for the day my friend.
>>55281491
And a 1080 draws over 300W as well if we're gonna talk about maximum power draw.
>>55281491

RX 480 12467
This is looking really bad for AMD, I almost feel sorry for them at this point.
>>55281491
>MAX and a overclock
Are you positively retarded?
That's like saying my Honda redlines every time because I do it once every month.
WORSE THAN A 960! DON'T BUY FROM AMD!
BUY A 1070 WHILE PRICES ARE LOW!
>>55281467
This
The score for the GPU alone puts it in 980 territory, overall score gets bogged down by a haswell Xeon that can't outperform a 3770K.
>>55281491
Wow, peaked at 80 degrees which for a reference card is good. My 780 Windforce gets that high under load as well. Also AMD said the tdp is 150W so 147 is spot on
>>55281515
>Literally right here
That's 3DMark 11, you dumb autist, not Fire Strike. A completely different benchmark.
>>55281545
>The score for the GPU alone puts it in 980 territory
It's not even close to the 980, it barely even competes with a 970
>>55281491
Holy fucking Jesus' balls, a 150W TDP chip maxes out at 147W ?
Call the press
>>55281545
It gets to 88 degrees.
Even my blower 970 never got above 83
>>55281491
So what's the power use in average gaming?
>>55281577
>Even my blower 970 never got above 83
Yeah, because that's the point where they start thermal throttling. AMD allow higher temperatures before thermal throttling kicks in. How about actually looking at your clock speeds once in a while?
>>55281579
135w
the new turbo is aggressive
>>55281387
Fuck back to >>>/v/ gaymer manchild
>>55281579
Scroll down to the 6th image and just go down, somewhere around 110W like it was said.

Also, do remember that GPU-z sensor readouts are highly inaccurate and you should really wait for power consumption tests at the rails with proper tools not a fucking bugged Microsoft API

Hell, I became very optimistic about the rx 480. 200$ for 980-level performance? Shieeet, guess I'll just buy a second-hand gtx 980 on warranty
>>55281614
Not going to lie, it's going to hurt a little on the inside if this is how the card actually performs. I was really hoping to be able to get a new video card, but it's looking like I'm going to be buying a used R9 290.
Come on, AMD. You had one job. Why is your last viable series of cards 3 generations old? Why is the 7970 still one of your best cards?
>>55281387
LOOL only 10101 score my 960 can score mroe ahAHAHAHAHAH AMD IS FUCKING DEAD
>>55281605
And you judge a video card based on "game performance"?
Wow shows your actual interest full well
>>55281631
LOOOOOL THIS I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW BIG OF A FLOP IT IS AMD SHOULD FUCKING KILL ITSELF ALREADY AHAHAHAHAH
thanks for the heads up, fudzilla
>>55281387
My GTX 970 gets 12145
The RX 480 gets 12467
So this is barely better than my 970, WTF?
>>55281387
My 970 scores 14k!
14000!
AMD IS FUCKING DEAD INT HE WATTER, STILLBOURNE AND FINISHED AND BANKRUPT!
>>55281634
This is a 200$ gpu. It's not designed for rendering or anything, it's supposed to be a budget gaming thingy and was supposed to beat the 970/980.
Curry dindu Kadouri lied I guess.
>>55281658
It does seem to beat the 970, but just barely.
It's basically the exact same as a 970 or 390

So we got a bunch of benches going from Nano to under the 970 performance.

this trolling attempt was unsuccessful, try again?
>>55281495
>>55281495
So, it's closest to score with a 390X and a 1418MHz overclocked 970.
But man, these things are all over the place.
>>55281700
Wait two days and see.
I wouldn't believe the really inflated ones, clearly not true. Expected it to be better than 970, not beating 980. That's the top of what I can believe at the given price.
If it really does turn out to be worse than 970, that would break my heart, but it's not like I was going to buy it anyway. I'll be stuck with my R9 380 for a bit longer.

AMD looks good in benchmarks but in real life(benchmarks ARE NOT real life) they're usually 2-2.5 times slower than the Nvidia equivalent, AMD is like those concept cars that can do anything but are just cheap shit with a coat of paint on them.
>>55281750
They don't even look good in benchmarks
Uhm this seems utterly fake.. Just wait for official benching.. also seen it beat the 980 in firestrike.. so we dont know shit yet..
>>55281745
It looks like it's about equal to a 970
Pretty disappointing when you can already get a 970 for $250 right now
standardized poo-in-the-loo names

Can I be retarded too? Here's a 980ti with a 13000 GFX score
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/6311035
>>55281700
OP benchmark is above 970 performance
OP benchmark is done with release candidate drivers that were pressed on disk weeks ago and are not the actual release drivers.
Not a single leak was done with correct drivers because even the press only just got the correct drivers.
>>55281750
facts usually sound good but not from your ass(not facts)
>>55281788
>still slower than Nvidia
AHAAHAHA FUCKING AMDKEKS
Fan is running under 20% and he prolly fucked the gpu in the afterburner setup or what ever hed using.. and that CPU is shit

This benchmark is retarded.
>>55281809
CPU is not shit, it's actually a good xeon
>>55281815

Pick one
>>55281778
Not where I live, the cheapest I can find is $389. See, this is why I buy AMD, I got R9 380 for around $270.
Will be a while until I see R9 480 here as well, so it doesn't matter. I reckon it will be around $300, and I don't suppose I'll see price cut for 970 soon, seeing as all shops are probably waiting to sell what they have in stock currently.
>>55281834
>I have no idea what I'm talking about
why is everyone in this thread confuse firestrike with 3dmark11?
This is with a 5960X with a 4.4GHz OC
>>55281859
>5960X with a 4.4GHz OC
Why don't they test with CPUs people actually use and at clockspeeds people actually use?
Like a i5 at 4.2 or something.
>>55281834
My 6 year old 1090T blackedition wipes as with that xeon
>>55281859
Something is very wrong with their benchmark, my 970 gets 12145
>>55281882
why? it will scale down with CPU and will be relatively the same to others
at least this way it excludes any kind of bottleneck for better understanding how gpu works
>>55281888
That's overall score, not GFX score.
>>55281545
The Xeon 1231v3 has identical performance to an i7 4770
>>55281894
OK that makes sense
>>55281859
So would a 480 with that CPU score around 11k?
>>55281907
You'll see in two days.
>>55281907
It should put the 480 slightly better than a 970
>>55281387
it has higher graphics score you dimwitted tool.
>>55281859
>Fury X slower than 980Ti at stock clocks
>meanwhile equal to 980Ti in games at stock clocks but slightly faster at 4k
This benchmark is full retard.
>>55281935
Synthetics were never a good indicator of gaming performance, as seen here AMD does worse in ONE(1) synthetic but better in gaming.
Is my GPU better than the 480?
>>55281387
>ran at 20% fanspeed
What the fuck?
Did he intentionally throttle the card?
>>55281977
No, that's actually how AMD sets it up by default
Guess this confirms it uses 150W
Man, people, just wait for the fucking reviews in 2 days, these scores are all over the place.
>>55281967
It's almost exactly the same
>GPU load 100%

Uhh yeah, about that GPU-z sensor accuracy?
It's kinda shitty.
>>55281686
Literally 330aud right now from MSY.
>>55281649
Your 970 has a factory OC. The synthetic score difference between a 390, 970, 390x, and 980 is very small and easily muddled by differing core clocks.
A 980 with a high OC only does 14000, a ref RX 480 will get in the mid 13500 range with OC. Partner cards will likely hit 13000 out of the box and manually OC into the 14000 score range. Get some perspective about FS scores.
>>55282016
Buttshilled AMDcuuck
>>55281714
buy a 970 then dipshit, its more expensive, older, and slower.
>>55282007
>>55281997
Holy, I can't wait to undervolt this thing.
AMD has put a large voltage range again with these chips for binning purposes.
It's painfully simply:
If the 250$ 480 performs slightly better than the 970 -- it's a no brainer since the 970 is about 250-300 right now.
If it's worse, than fuck it, you may as well get a gtx 980.
Trying times for AMD -- will they succeed in the mid-range or fail miserably?
>>55282033
It's not looking good.
If they could hit 980 performance, it would be worth it, but at this point it's basically just another 970.
>>55281467
Yeah now try it in a game with the shitty driver overhead from amd.
And don't waste my time with a 6700k.
It's a budget card, pair it with a budget cpu like athlon 880k, i3 6100, or i5 6400.
What's the point of these leak threads? AMD shills will latch on to high scores to make the thing look good while Nvidiots will latch on to low scores to make AMD look bad.
There's fucking over 25% variance between leak scores over the last few DAYS
>>55282028
>slower
Clearly not, judging by OP's info.
>more expensive and older
Well yes, you'd think 2 extra years would give AMD some time to make a card that's better than a 970 somehow, but apparently not.
still want to try again?
>>55282052
It's /g/, people love bickering over this shit, when they don't realize that good competitions from both manufacturers leads to better and cheaper products for all consumers.
>>55282052
Let me tell you why there's such a large variance between scores.
>multiple CPUs
>different clocks for both CPU and GPU
>different drivers
>fanspeeds set to low
>throttling
>different benchmarks
Anything else?
>>55282041
>just another 970
This would be shit. It means anybody with a 390/970 will have ZERO incentive to buy this thing. Now people like me who are on the fence and waitfagging for something decent around the 300-400 euro mark (980 in my country is about 400 euro and the 480 will be 300) may as well go look for some bargains and get a 980 since the 1070 is like 550 eurokeks.
The 480 can succeed only if it's at least slightly better than the 970/390
>>55282073
it will be slower you just don't know how to judge what you're looking at.
>>55282041
except 8gb of vram vs 3.5
but yeah this isn't for people who already own a 970 or equivalent amd card.
>>55282086
>don't know how to judge

>>55282033
>If it's worse, than fuck it, you may as well get a gtx 980.
The 980 is and will continue to be $300 even used. If the 480 ends up 10% slower in the worst case its still $100 cheaper.

>>55282052
>MOMMY MOMMY! EVERYONE IS BULLYING AMD, STOP IT.
haha, so pathetic.
Real competition exists when there are no excuses. The RX 480 didn't perform so it deserves the utmost ridicule.
So I looked up the average results for a GTX 970 with the exact same CPU as in OP.
The average is significantly higher than the 480.
This is looking very bad if it can't even beat a 970.
>>55282130
What's the point of your post? Looks like you're taking sides, which is stupid. Go ahead and judge how the 480 is when it actually releases. Make memes about shit performance in the mean time, true or not. If this turns out to be real then I'll laugh too.
anyway here's your (You), you slut
You guys are all aware the RX 480 was made to compete with the 960 right?

As the owner of a R9 380 this makes me happy. Slightly less buyers remorse now.
>>55282206

The 480 is still a good card if you're building a new machine, but if you have anything decent it's a pretty bad upgrade.
>>55282238
>he wants to know what i have now

That's actually an interesting theory, it does make them look like a bunch of idiots.
>>55282316
I don't think that 1060 will be 590€ in Europe.
The difference between 8GB RX480 and 4GB GTX970 is fucking 10€.
Koduri Koduri give me the formuli
>>55282401
And the 8gb are absolutely meaningless for a card that is designed to handle 1080p and won't deliver much performance and 4k
People have been overreacting all month with all these stupid benchmarks. It's only 2 more days now. However, IF the card doesn't perform at least on par with a 390x, it will be a failure in my book. Especially with the news that the reference cards can only OC about 75-100mhz.
as someone who doesn't care for nvidia vs amd.
I was hoping this would be the next 8800gt (gamechanger) and that prices would drop.
Fuck amd and their Pajeet engineering, this would be good card if it was released with same price when 970 and 980 came out
>>55282401
Even a 480 4GB to 970 4GB is just $50 difference
If the 970 goes down to $200 it will be a better buy in every way.

Go look it up yourself. Go to the Fire Strike benchmarks site, search for the same Xeon CPU as OP with a GTX 970. The average score is even higher than a 480, it's very bad.
>>55282729
State side prices are amazing.
So pajeet ultimately did more harm with his shilling than good. I called it from the very beginning that this thing is never ever and under no circumstances will ever compete with a 980 or hell a 980ti. It's direkt competitor will be the 970 and 1060.
I say you delusional AMDrone must suffer for this. You deserve every ridicule in this thread.

The 480 will perform on par with a 390x for $200. Buying a 970 is stupid.
>>55281882
They try to remove bottlenecks.
I think its a stupid way of testing though.

Not to mention OP was done with an old prerelease driver.

Yeah, a 970 overclocked to 1460MHz.
Durr.
>>55282841
It's about the same as a 970 for $200. Still a decent deal, but if the 970 price drops another $50 it will be the exact same as the 480.

>>55282853
Yes, disregard the benchmarks that were shown not too long ago that put the card between 980 and Fury level because it doesn't fit your bias. Hey retard! Official benchmarks aren't released until Wednesday.
The card has 5.8 TFlops of performance. There's no way it isn't on par with a 390x.
>>55281607
New to /g/? They do this all the time, bulldozer, fiji... "it's going to be amazing!" after launch fail, they will say it will be fixed with drivers (they do the same copy paste all the time)
>>55281387
Welcome to AMD, goy
>>55282908
>There's no way it isn't on par with a 390x
You're right, it's on par with a 970
AMD not even once
>>55282919
Which is on par with a 980.
Glad we got that outta the way.
>>55281834
The Xeon E3-1231 is identical to an i7, minus the iGPU, turdmongler.

Yeah, it's identical to a i7 all right.
A 5 year old one.
>>55282927
Bruh look it up yourself
Go to their website, select the same Xeon CPU and GTX 970
The average score is far higher than the 480 with the exact same CPU, it's not even a contest
>>55282871
So one leak and now you're certain the card is only on par with a 970? OK. 2 more days and we'll know for sure. Again though, unless AMD went backwards in performance per transistor, which doesn't make any sense, the card should be equal to a 390x at least.
>>55282927
And AMD fanboys didnt seem to have that problem when the 1080s temps were first mentioned.
>>55282936
Is this the same /g/ that says "My Sandy Bridge i7 is still viable!"
"Five years and still barely noticeable improvement!"
Your doublethink is intense.
>>55282419
tell that to the people watching the 970 going in the 3.5-4 Gb territory.
>>55281387
Nvidia shills in full damage control mode I see. The rx480 must be even better than benchmarks have shown. Can't wait for the rx490 to bankrupt nvidia!
>>55282947
>the card should be equal to a 390x
Well sadly it's not. Maybe it is a power delivery problem? The 480 can only use so much power with only one 6 pin.
>>55282929
Should definitely say nvidia jewforce. Or nvidia goyforce.
>>55282945
average score is an average of factory OC and custom OC models. If you want stock scores you have to look at the lowest scores
480 in OP is comfortably beating a stock 970. 480 benchmarks will be even higher in Thursday with the final drivers.
>>55282962
> Well sadly it's not
Wow you sound so sure of yourself

Erry tiem.
>>55282973
The 970 you can buy for $250, with a nice quiet open air cooler already beats the $200 480. Not sure it gets more clear than that.
>>55282972
make it happen
>>55282973
>drivers are going to push performance by at least 50%, letting it easily beat a 980ti and 1070
Whos a good manufacturer for the 1070? Amd blew it time to fibally switch
>>55282989
And you'll get a 480 AIB model that will trash its ass for $250 and use much less power in 2 weeks and won't choke itself when a shit game decides it needs more memory.
So?
>>55282989
The rumor that it's gonna cost 200 bucks needs to die. This card will cost 200 bucks just as much the 1070 costs 370 and the 1080 costs 500.
>>55282989
Here it is >300€ with bottleneck after 3.5gb. That's not worth over a 480 which will be slightly better.
Reminder the 970 came out two years ago. That's how far behind AMD is.
Yes we're all confused, this thing is performing worse than a 970
>>55282899
Nvidiots confirmed for be to stupid to read the thread. Average score includes oc's cards...
>>55283025
Yeah if it costs anything more than $200 it's going to be the biggest fail of AMDs history, literally the 3 year old 970 will be a better buy
>>55283001
Not 50%, but should be somewhere around 25% average.
Hawaii increased its performance to near 30% over the years.
>>55283025
There are plenty of cards in stock at major retailers and there's no "FE" bullshit, so yes, the 4GB card will be $200 on launch. Stay mad though.
>>55283009
150 watt is not much less power. You are ultimately paying for the same performance just from a different manufatorer and more vram. No idea why you wouldn't simply buy a 390 and be done with it.
>>55283050
That didn't seem to matter when the 3 year old 390X was shitting on the 980
But yeah, muh power consumption.
Which suddenly also doesn't matter.
>>55283050
>Not the 3.5 year old card
Buying gimped hardware must also be a cuckold pastime
>>55283053
It won't kiddo and I just wanna spare you the disappointment when you realize that you can't get any 480 for less than 250. The 8gb will probably cost around 300.
>>55283063
The 970 actually uses even less power, it's 145W
>>55283063
>150 watt is not much less power
150W max.
That's like saying your 970 uses 220W because it spikes to 220W
Learn a thing about GPU power draw.n
Same performance as 970
Same power usage as 970
Same price as 970
Comes out 3 years later than the 970
What the fuck is AMD thinking?
>>55283072
>has to buy shitty pajeet hardware because he's poor

>>55282973
I've had some abominable benchmark results when I:
-heavily underclocked both gpu and cpu for minimum power usage
-had other software running in parallel to generate maximum heat
-had forgotten to switch on the fans.
If you compare with such results and boast about having better ones, that's sad man. Average is very close to non overclocked
https://rbt.asia/g/thread/S55244183#p55244611
Called it.
>>55283081
You can go on newegg, search RX 480, filter the price to $100-$200, and you'll find a Sapphire 4GB RX 480 that will be available to purchase in 2 days.
>>55283128
They'll increase the prices when ti releases retard
>>55283148
Yeah, and risk pissing everyone off.
Vendors have already confirmed the 480 won't have supply issues like 1070/80.
>>55283148
Sure thing buddy. Whatever lets you sleep at night.
>>55283148
they won't because they have full warehouses of the stuff.
25x as many in storage as Nvidia had GTX 1080
All those leaks before didn't matter but suddenly this one really matters to Nvidiafags.
Pretty cute.
Let's see what happens in 2 days.
>>55283040

>All this mad over a $200 doller card not beating the 970
Fixed
I was really rooting for amd this time, giving nvidia a bit of heat and forcing progress. Seeing the amd people here (not gonna call them names) makes me want amd to fail just for the laugh
>>55283171
AMD fags are now in full retreat.
YOU AMD DRONES ARE FUCKING CRAZY
Not so long ago you were saying the 480 would beat the 980. Now you're saying the 480 was designed to compete with 960/380. ARE YOU REALLY TRYING TO TELL US THIS IS A GOOD THING?
Nvidia just showcased two powerful gpus. Regardless of how overpriced and maybe even faulty their shit is, it's still better than the previous generation. 1070 may be just a lousy 10% better than the 980 but it IS fucking 10% better, end of story.
Meanwhile AMD pulls out a fucking 200$ budget card that's barely able to compete with a 3-fucking-year-old 970 and they have the cheek, the bareface effrontery to call it good.
What the fuck are these curry niggers thinking? Nobody with a 390/970 will buy this, others will look for used or on-sale 980s.
Fucking AMD, queens of disappointment.
>>55283148
You increase prices when supply is low and demand is high, basically confirming you a sale at increased margins.
Polaris doesn't have supply issues, so there's no reason for stores to hike prices UNLESS even this huge inventory (C7 stepping, the GPU has started mass production at least 2 months ago) AMD amassed sells out
show me DX12 benchmarks if you're so great
>trusting leddit
I'll wait for real non-rune scores to be posted.
>>55283204
>using wangblows 10: the NSA strikes back
>>55282313
Nah, they just want everyone to hear the hype and preorder etc, then when all the disappointing benchmarks flow, they will have everyone go past the 30 return window with promises of new drivers... (and when drivers come out 2 weeks later and dont do squat, maybe a "that just fixes issues with game x, it's the next ones that fix performance")
>8gb vs
>3.5gb
Choosing the 3.5gb
>>55283204
>>55283199
Your fucking crazy to believe that 390/970 owners were the target market.
>>55283199
AMD fans - masters of moving the goalposts
It was supposed to be equal to the 970 all along, right guys?
>>55283187
Actually its more. the 8gb is over $230
>>55283224
>waiting 3 years for a GPU with same performance but more vram
>>55283199
Your missing the point buddy the 480 is made for 1080p gaming for $200 its a steal, 1070/1080 is just overkill for 90% of people
>>55281495
390X stock - 12547 gfx score
970 1418MHz - 12015 gfx score
But this is weird, the 970 scores are all over the fucking place, from 12k to 14k gfx score with a 100MHz clock difference
Yeah, no way I'm taking this benchmark at face value.
LMAO ALL THESE NVIDIA SHILLS NOW PRASING THE 970 3.5 MEME CARD
>>55283253
>over
at
>>55283224
Your probably one of those fags that would choose a 2500k vs anything modern
>>55283279
Memory overclocking can pull up that 2k score difference, surprisingly.
tl;dr you need a heavily overclocked 970(close to a 980 and 390x) to compete with a 480
>>55283095
Don't let the movie Paycheck fool you, it takes a long time to reverse engineer something.
>>55283199
Don't forget the time where they actually tried to tell you that's it's gonna be similar in performance to a 1070 once it's OC'd.
>>55283095
they have literally no money to spend on improving GPUs, not to mention they make CPUs as well.
Haven't noticed how they have been rehashing the same architecture with minor changes over how many years is it now?
>>55283329
If it is actually possible for the card to hit 1600mhz, it should be close to a 1070. Once we have non-reference 480s available, we shall see.
>>55283329
Quit shoving your multicultural failed leftist ideology down others throats, please.
Will this still be a good alternative as a poorfag with a gtx 660 and a 1080p 60hz screen?
>>55282950
No retard, of course not everyone thinks a fucking 5 year old architecture is viable. /g/ isn't one big fat autistic retard with defined opinions, its a massive group of fat autistic retards who have varying opinions.
For example, I'm on an 8320 which is the same age as Sandy Bridge, and I think this is too fucking slow for my needs today.
I will upgrade as soon as the fucking pound recovers. Fucking Farage.
