What aftermarket brand are you gonna buy edition.
Does HIS still make AMD cards?
Back in the day I bought a HIS 4830. Love that card. Still works to this day.

Good for you...go back to the old thread.
AMD heat sink does not need a vapor tube.
>>55313575
>What aftermarket brand are you gonna buy edition.
I don't pay a huge amount of attention since I haven't gotten a new VGA in a number of years, but if I recall Powercolor did good work with AMD.
For whatever reason my impression is that ASUS and Gigabyte are better for Nvidia.
>>55313653
Probably them too. The main thing is to not get an MSI.
>>55313687
you cant say that rajesh! we are cutting 5 rupees from your salary today
>nvidia mongrels faces when they buy 970s and 980s based on DX11 games and in 6 months when all games are DX12 they lose miserably
It's the 290 launch all over again.

stop falling for bait, go to the old thread for a flame war.

RX 490 confirmed for 2016.
>>55313708
where can I buy it ?
>>55313735
but is it big polaris or lil vega?
>>55313735
Vega is going to be sweet!
Anything below 390 performance is pretty much a write off, it should be hitting stock 980 performance too ideally.
If it really is 10-15% below a 970 like some of these benches claim it's pretty much DOA.
Though it does contradict the AoS benches that leaked when the card was announced. As well as some other people on youtube who got cards early, but whatever, feasibly the lowest benches represent the average.
>>55313736
That fuckin heatsink.
It probably handles the GPU at stock just fine, OC and you get meltdown.
That's probably the reason they only stuck one 6pin on the card.
>>55313753
there is no big polaris, senpai
>>55313723
>480 between 970 and 980
That would be AMAZING.
>>55313691
It's about fucking time.
>>55313756
Estimated Stock 980 performance. The bench you have been seeing is the stock 480 vs a $360 over clocked 970. With that said...we have to wait for bench anyhow.
>>55313691
>functionality can be updated with microcode
securefags buttblasted
but it's not like they use gpu anyway
>>55313735
If this is true I can peacefully forget about the 480 now
>>55313792
But these same benches say its also weaker than a 380X, how about that fanboy?
>>55313778
yea, better DX11 performance, I'm surprised they did that.
>>55313796
And CPUs couldn't¿
Also AMD and Nvidia issue microcode updates via their drivers for years.
POOLARIS
Here's what NOT to buy.
Reference
XFX
Powercolor unless their ultra high end models
ASUS unless they fixed their heatsink jewery
>>55313803

What am I going to do guys? I already preordered the cards and I can't cancel it. The loan has a 20% interest rate, and if I can't sell the two extra cards for $300, I can't pay off the loan.
>>55313829
Why not XFX?
XFX Black Edition comes with 2 year warranty, backplate and a HDMI to DVI cable.
>>55313770
that's 390 in the back
>>55313829
How's MSI? i currently have one and feel the cooler is a bit loud, but maybe the 480 will push that less than my 270.
DESU i'd probably get a 480 regardless since it represents a decent leap over my 270.
>>55313639
that is a really stupid, meaningless change
>>55313837
nigga the benchmarks arent even out yet
>>55313837
Did you really do this?
>>55313847
Because XFX assembly is garbage and they use lowest end components and semen for solder
>>55313837
You're stupid for not waiting for the benchmarks before ordering, thats your problem.
>>55313803
It was always weaker then the 390x
This char is from weeks ago
>>55313837
Cancel preorders. Get a 1070/1080. If they've already shipped, return them, so long as they are unopened you'd get your money back.
>>55313880
All reference cards are built by AMD/Nvidia and re branded. Only the after market(AIB) XFX cards use custom components...unless thats what you're talking about? I usually by MSI custom cards.
>>55313837
Why don't you niggers just wait a few hours until real benchmarks come out? I can't believe you're falling for clickbait

Damn this is depressing. Goes in Europe for 500€, about $550.
>>55314014
It doesn't have the same power consumption.
>>55313977
Shouldn't the 480 be faster then?
>>55314025
Yea thats correct because i see a 480X there and there is no 480X the bottom one is the 480 and its below the 390x......am I correct?

Mate, the long NDA alone should tell you everything you need to know about the 480
>>55314040
No, spastic.
They are entirely different architectures and that is not quantified there in simplistic bullet points.
The 480 doesn't compete with the 1070. It is positioned around the GTX 970 and 980.

>>55314083
So why are you asking me?
>>55314083
Pretty much this, if AMD were proud of their card they would of went out of their way to have people review it before launch. Too bad AMD children don't understand this.
>>55314093
Not him but I only play BF and BF1 will be DX12 so this card will be perfect for me.

>>55313837
either this is bait or you are one dumb nigger who think buying dual blower cards in crossfire is a good idea. Ebin
>>55313847
I have to agree with that guy. The only cards that have ever failed on me were XFX cards. One was an 8800GT that crapped out after a year or so, back when they used to make Nvidia cards, and the other was an R9 290X DD that died after only 2 months. Every other card that I've bought from other manufacturers worked just fine. I even have an EVGA 8600GTS that still runs even though it must be close to 10 years old.

this is a very important point
hiding the truth until the moment the card is released is shady as fuck
>>55314239
Thanks for your comment.
>>55314249
it's irrelevant for hardware nobody buys day one except americans and retards
>>55314249
>muh holding the truth
actually believing this
if you really think about it you should realize how retarded it sounds
Arnt all referance cards just the same shit with a diffrent sticker on em? I wanted to get the XFX because it comes with a backplate.
>>55314239
Will they ever learn. bro? I keep hoping after each AMD blunder they would realize their foolishness. They don't though.
>>55314283
xfx is also 1350 mghz and $269 for 8gb
>>55314249
No it isn't you retarded fuck. An NDA is a standard practice, and the industry itself wants them for marketing purposes.
The first sites to release reviews get the most traffic, so sites who jump the gun get the lion's share of web traffic. That makes everyone else butthurt, so they complain to the hardware vendor. The NDA is put in place, among other reasons, so that all reviews go live at the same time.
Its really like you 12 year old dipshit children have never seen a single GPU released ever before.
>>55314295
>>55314239

>>55314308
>I j-just want a shit card
Okay, go ahead.
>>55314308
Don't forget the now supposedly irrelevant power consumption.
>>55314308
Oh wow, it costs less than a 2 year old card that you can buy 2nd hand for less than a new RX 480, I wonder why they priced it so low.
>>55314308
pure speculation
amd is too embarrassed to release specs until it's available for purchase and they already have pre-order bux from blind fanboys
Will AMD finally fix this?
>>55314308
>AMD comes up with a new product designed to compete with 970's that Nvidia already stopped making.
>Literally competing with used 970s
AMD IS PROFITABLE AND HEALTHY COMPANY
>>55313708
Is that why it overheats?
>>55314335
People have optical drives?
>>55314295
It's not rational. They're just fanboys who buy AMD everytime despite what the benchmarks say.
>>55314348
Yes.
>>55314335
this is actually killing me, I could save up to 4% on power bill
if it is 390 performance i will sidegrade before vega for this
>>55314297
In that case the NDA should release at least 2-5 days ahead of the actual release.
NDA releasing the day the product goes on sale stinks that they know that their product is a flop.
Nvidiots have entered extended damage control mode.
>>55314335
>bluray
Someones sucking the Sony cock lmao.
>>55314297
Not even remotely true.
Nvidia released the NDA a week before launch, because they knew the reviews were going to be good.
The only reason AMD is doing this is because they want people to be dumb enough to buy before even looking at any reviews.
Sadly the reviews will be smacking this card back down to earth where it belongs.
>>55314346
Point is that a huge chunk of the PC market has really old Hardware. Like R7 level of shit. If AMD manages to release a cheap chard that falls between the 970 and 980 without any of the AMD stigamta aka "hotter than sun, nuh power consuption and no driver" they are in a good spot, because a lot of people will use that to upgrade.
>>55314355
It applies to video playback in general.
At least Fury doesn't idle at 60W higher than nvidia cards with more than one monitor. Hope that carries over to 480.
>>55314369
Yes, they're really worried about an AMD product that can't beat 2 year old cards that Nvidia stopped making months ago.
>>55314379
Yup, high pressure sales 101. Their bullshit doesn't work if you give people time to think.
>>55314331
>>55314346
What card has a better price/power ratio?
The 1070 for $600 from scalpers?
The 1060 that will probably cost $400 but have a 5 fps increase compared to the 480?
AMD has cards ready to roll in 4 hours!!!
All these nvidia fags in here cause they don't have any, boo hooo. Enjoy your over priced pre orders.
>>55314369
There fucking stupid they all of a sudden love the "4"gb 970
>>55314381
>point is
There is no point to making a card that's weaker than a 970 in most cases and overclocks worse other than to trick poortard fanboys.
>>55314308
>Costs less than a 970
Only on paper, look at the actual launch prices, they're all $250 and up which is even more than a brand new 970
>Comparable to the OC version of it
Any decent 970 actually beats the 480 in benchmarks, pic related
>Has a fuckton more of VRAM to not choke every 5 seconds
Sadly the VRAM makes no difference, because even a 3.5GB card like the 970 beats it, pic related
>>55314397
4gb 480.
>>55314378
I guess you dont own any phones,tvs ,consoles etc then from any manufacturer?
>>55314297
NDA's til a week or so before launch are standard
NDA's til release day are a red flag
enjoy your pre-ordered black edition, Rajah

But the 1060 has been released!!!!!!!!
I can't wait.
>>55314335
>watching blu rays on pc
we found him guys, we finally found the guy still doing it.
Seriously though, I doubt they'll optimise it for something so niche.
>>55314399
Ordered a 480.
Going to make one of those "smash desirable new item" videos that makes nerds cry and make me twice the money i paid for the card and put the profits towards a 1080.
>>55314397
>What card has a better price/power ratio?
RX480, it peaks at 130W or so (averages at something like 110W), while the 1080 peaks at fucking 310W (averages at 170W).
>>55314402
>Only on paper, look at the actual launch prices, they're all $250 and up which is even more than a brand new 970
4GB (actually 4GB) is going for 199.
The ones priced extra are factory overclocked 8GB versions.
>>55313575
gonna get a sapphire one, maybe toxic idk
>>55314402
>$250 and up which is even more than a brand new 970
Link to a brand new 970 for under $250 please.
>>55314402
Isn't Zotac the strongest version of 970?
>>55314401
>>55314402
If the rx 480 really is worse off than a 970 I fully agree: AMD is fucked and there is no point in the card other than the faint hope that an improved driver support helps out. And that is what is killing me about the NDA. It shouldn't be worse but everything is pointing to it.
>>55314429
One of the dumbest posts in this thread.
>>55314402
>they're all $250 and up which is even more than a brand new 970
good luck actually finding 970 for 250 in EU
480-260 euro
970 - is at least 350 and stock is dwindling fast
>>55314434
Yeah the one in question is factory overclocked to 1307Mhz, so very close to a stock 980.
Does anyone besides TPU do relative performance? Roll up average of 15ish games and display an average score? Cherrypicking games that one oe the other vendor do notably worse in is just shitposting.
>>55314434
Zotac are the budget card. But yet good.

Then again some people only play 2-3 games so those should just look at them
>>55314429
>310W
Imagine if they allowed the 480 to use 310w would rekt the 1080
>but lets keep comparing a 200$ card to the blackout causing 1080
>>55313758
I think it looks pretty slick but yeah it would probably burst into flames to second you change anything on it.
>>55314434
I am a super casual and looking at that one. I'll wait gor the rx480 benchmark and if it is shit I'll go for nvidia.
rx480 and the Z970 will cost the same in europe anyways.
>>55314428
sounds good...go for it, and if you don't do it you're a fagget.
>>55314447
TPU is best for getting relative performance.
Tom's is best for getting the actual power draw characteristics.
Everyone else just kind of throws some games at them, some biased towards AMD and some towards Nvidia.
>>55314473
You could probably measure +300W from 480. Depends on how fast you can sample with your oscilloscope.
>>55314470
That's a 970
>>55314056
He said solder, not thermal compound you doof
>>55314478
Why not wait for the MSI/Gigabyte/Sapphire versions of the 480?
If this one goes easily with a Zotac a better model will be around a 980ti
Whats this about?
>>55314412
Nothing that has any Sony DRM tech in it.
>>55314434
Not even close. The one they used is in the middle of the range.
Right now there is an EVGA 970 with an even higher clock you can get for only $250
>>55314498

so name the brands you have then.
>>55314402
Chang shilling his chink shit in full force. Is it fear? Because 970's in Australia still cost $420 at the minimum. 480 8gb will most likely retail at $400, which makes it cheaper to begin with.
>Sadly the VRAM makes no difference
That's great man. You stick with your 1.5 year old 3.5gb card that tanks whenever more vram is needed. I hope it serves you well. Me though, I don't need a meme card.
>>55314433

>>55314523
Only one of those is under 250$ tho anon.
>>55314532
BUT YOU CAN OVERCLOCK THEM OF COURSE
I dont really get the retarded fanboyism on this board. Everybody should hope that the rx 480 is some good shit. Nvidia is charging borderline monopoly prices, lovely company it is. For me the CEO really reflects their mentality:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAueZ_VWBUU
Every Nvidia fanboy hoping that AMD will fail does not love tech and loves being cucked by a chink. Every decent person will realize the importance of AMD winning some market share
>>55314523
now link one from actual store and be in awe of 320+ prices
>>55314521
Enjoy your lower performance for the same price
I hope HIS are gonna make aftermarket 480's, OP. I kind of want to try out a crossfire build since I've never done it before, and I have the awful taste necessary to enjoy HIS's weird ass gold coloured GPU's.
>>55314523
fucking 3.5 models you fucking piece of shit.
>>55314536
This changes the fact that they make some of the highest clocked 970s out there how? In general a lot of their AMP! cards are generally really highly clocked for a given gpu.
>>55314538
I think most people are actually trying to stop AMDrones from buying a shitcard that can't compete against a two year old card. Believe me, I would love competition in the market. AMD just can't do it though.
>>55314537
Not for me
>>55314538
lol I will use then when?
>>55314538
I'd love competition but AMD isn't giving any
>>55314538
I'd love for AMD to EARN some market share, but they just can't stop shooting themselves in the dick
I'd be ecstatic in nvidia had some real competition
Is this card worth upgrading for if you have a 780ti ?
>>55314556
The card used in the polish benchmarks.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/b3085/zotac-gtx-970-amp-omega-edition
GPU Clock: 1102 MHz (+5%)
Boost Clock: 1241 MHz (+5%)
Such a huge OC.
>>55314556
>This changes the fact that they make some of the highest clocked 970s out there how
That's not even close to true
I count 16 different GTX 970s with a higher clock speed just looking at pc part picker
Hilariously one of them is selling for just $258
>>55314509
HAHAAHHHHAHAHAHAHAAH
>>55314559
>having MIR enabled
i guess if you have the money to upfront and can be guaranteed you'll actually get the MIR then this would be maybe an ok deal?
All the deals that push the 970 down under 260$ are done after july 30th at the latest though, and the cheapest non-MIR model is just a re-shrouded reference cooler.
>>55314561
>I'd love competition but AMD isn't giving any
If this 480 thing works maybe it will be enough foir Jewidia to lower their fucking retarded prices.
Like holy shit how the fuck is it possible that a 970 is still +250$ in most places today
>>55314538
I just don't want people to buy into a hype that might turn out to be a fluke that is why I am careful with my assesment, especially considering the NDA. Wait for the bench, then buy, not the otherway around.
>>55314561
>>55314566
You have to wait, AMD will bring out their VEGA line when the 1080ti's come out.
>>55314544
I can tell you from experience that crossfire is not worth it and that HIS's cooler is nothing special. Only slightly above the xfx cooler, which is pretty shit. It still has the issue of leaving the vrm's out to fry, like the xfx though, so any reviews you read are only showing you the temperature of the gpu itself.
Stick to sapphire, Msi, or powercolor pcs+. Those are the three worth getting.
>>55314574
24% overclock past base clock so yes, that is a big overclock.

1 manufacturer suffered from this problem.
version 368.39 - WHQL
Release Date Tue Jun 07, 2016 fixed all the issues with it.
>>55314591
>w-wait for the next release guys
every fucking time
>>55314596
>24% overclock past base clock
What?
It says it right there. 5% overclock.
>>55314592
MSI is good. My 7950's have been doing well.
>>55314574
And in the article it states that the card was not overclocked more than 5% of its potential so it wasnt ramped up.
Try to find another excuse
>>55314607
970 base clock is 1050Mhz. Anything past that is overclock.
>>55314603
I dont understand what you're saying? I'm not defending anything? Are you looking for a fanboy fight I don't do that. -=)
>>55314615
What are you even trying to say?
>>55314591
Just like the Fury was going to redefine AMD-Nvidia positions, it's always wait with AMD
>>55314591
And the backpedaling starts now. Go ahead, AMDrones. Let's hear about how you'll beat Nvidia next time.
>>55314596
Wow you must have failed math horribly
970 base is 1050, the one they used is 1152, that's 9%
>>55314615
I trust them too. "The article says" Yep.
>>55314621
not looking for a fight at all
unfortunatley, you used a popular refrain from amd in your post that i'm automatically programmed to mock
no offense directed at you personally
>>55314620
970's default boost clock is 1178.
Are you claiming that the stock 970 is overclocked too?
>>55314629
>>55314625
>>55314603
Thanks for staying up with my guys I enjoy your company <3
>>55314641
Clearly you have no clue what the difference is between a base and boost clock
>>55314634
Well dont, its not long await until the big reveal now.
Im waiting for all the backtracks.
So far its gone from "as good as a 1080 when clocked" to "well its 980ti standard"
Now its scraping the barrel comparing it to a 970. How embarrassing
>>55314651
>Clearly you have no clue what the difference is between a base and boost clock
Says the guy who claims that the Zotac card has a 24% overclock because its boost clock is 24% higher than its base clock.
Go be a retard elsewhere.
>>55314557
Yeah, from both sides retarded shit is thrown. Maybe they try to reach a middle my going to the extremes. Most of the arguments are "Nvidia is stupid" or "AMD is stupid".

Lets just keep posting interesting information and benches

Different guy
>>55313575
Sapphire is usually a solid option
>>55314644
it can't be helped
I have problems i think
but at least I'm in good company
>>55314666
Yeah this guy is the retard who can't do math, direct your hate to him
>>55313758
>expecting anything better for $200-230
>>55314680
18% over base clock is still pretty large, anon.
>>55314689
It's 9% moron, very average considering how many other 970s are higher clocked right out of the box
Why hasn't AMD inflated their numbers to keep up with Nvidia? 480 can't compete with 1080. People will assume that's the resolution they're capable of, because the average gamer is that stupid.
>a weeks ago: It's going to beat the 980! Nvidia cucks on suicide watch!
>today: Guys, it's a 200 dollar card! It's not fair to compare it to the 970, a two year old card!
>>55314696
>getting mad a stock 480 at 200$ matches an overclocked 970 at 300$
:^)
If you guys have nothing to do go to the /b/ lobby chat.

>>55314705
The 970 actually beats the 480 sadly
>>55314703
S-shutup, a-at least it's slightly faster than the 380 you shill.
>a*d
you guys are poo to loo tier LMFAO
>>55313575
test
ignore this.
I bought a new 970 yesterday for €189 with shipping. Did I fuck up?
>>55314379
I tend to agree with you but it could also be due to immature drivers - they wanted enough time to correct any problems before the proverbial shit meets fan
>>55313575
I will always buy Nvidia™ because I only play games The Way It's Meant to be Played™. Nvidia also pioneers innovative new technologies like PhysX™, Gameworks™ and the highest quality driver to ever grace Windows. When I boot up with a brand new Nvidia™ Geforce™, I can experience the game just like it's meant to be played. Nvidia™ also delivers a far more silkysmooth experience. Nvidia Geforce™ is also very power efficient. A graphic card is the most power hungry device in your house. Refrigerators, air conditioners, water heaters, dish washers, lights, etc all use significantly less power than a graphic card. Which is why Nvidia™ puts gamers first by ensuring that their gaming experience is of the highest quality while looking out for gamers by giving them the most value in their electrical bill. At this point in time, there's really no reason to consider an AMD graphic card at all. I tried one one time, it caused so much heat that it exploded. It also consumed so much power that it gave off an EMP and destroyed the rest of my computer. Nvidia™ also pioneered how useless GPGPU is with CUDA™. Years ago, everyone thought GPGPU, CUDA™, and OpenCL were the future. Now, Nvidia™ has removed those useless features from their GPUs and increased efficiency. Now you can save thousands a year in electricity thanks to Nvidia™ ensuring that useless features like GPGPU are "optimized" for gamers. It's quite clear that OP's an AMD shill trying to convince you to settle on something less than The Way It's Mean to be Played™. Nvidia™ is the only real way to play games. We have seen recently that they offer incredible libraries for software developers like Nvidia Gameworks. He is probably too poor to afford the Nvidia Geforce Experience and can not afford to play any games The Way It's Mean To be Played™. Don't be a poor gamer with bad drivers and a huge power bill. Play games with the Geforce™ Experience™: The Way It's Mean To Be Played™
of you reply to this thread you mother will be kill forest night next week

Interesting times guys

Clash of the midrage'ers incoming
>>55314427
if they designed the GPU with consoles/APUs in mind, they might have
Take your 970s out and throw them away.
>>55314739
What's the expected price for the 1060?
>wake up thinking theres reviews
>nope fucking american time gotta wait 5 more hours
>>55313710
fucking kek
>>55314544
same here. i want to crossfire finally and 480 seem to be perfect for that.
>>55314750
They are probably waiting on the reviews and reception of 480 today to decide that.
>>55314538
I am pro AMD competition. I also think the RX 480 will be a great value for the consumer who can't spend more than $250. For a new architecture launch for AMD as a company, it is a shit product.
>>55314750
probably 25-30% below the 1070
>>55314739
>>55314750
>>55314750
>3 frames more than the 480
>$425 actual price
>5 in stock per state
get hype
>>55314750
probably $275-$350 "msrp" with actual prices being $300-$400
So, i think we can healthily expect the 1060 to have a 20% lead over the 480 and cost roughly the same.
>>55314739
you know what i love? they havent released any single B revision on the pascal yet they keep rushing them out and the geforce forums are already filled with problems from dual link boot problems to fans still not being manually corrected to throttling down to the base clock every time
>>55314772
>im pro amd
>480 is a great card
>for amd to launch such a card is a shit product
>nvidia shill
>>55314750
Whatever it will be the 1060 will be scalped to hell and back. Nvidia pushing the release forwards pretty much means they will have barely any stock.
>last week
>over clocks over 1500mhz
>this week
>can't even touch 1400mhz
>now this
Which is it?
>>55314796
real answer nobody knows yet
>>55314796
>,overclocking a reference blower and not expecting a housefire
>>55314811
funny thing is they compare 1080 with vapor chamber to 480 with tiny aluminium heatsink without heatpipes
>>55314781
Looks like a last minute decision rush job.
Expecting +15%~20% price and +10% performance. Most people will probably prefer the slight performance bump despite the price and because nvidia has better reputation.
>>55314739
SHIEEEEEEEEEEEEET
>>55314792
I am pro competition from AMD. AMD shat the bed over 10 years ago (beginning with their purchase of ATI, which they couldn't afford) an never recovered and I am doubtful they ever will. Their finances are a mess and they must resort to pawning out their IP to stay afloat. The big winners for their recovery were to be this chip ($200-230 for a new GPU architecture? nice margins lol) and Zen (99.99% sure it's delayed to deep 1Q17 and it will be 5-10% behind INTC's last gen architecture).
I hope AMD stock gets a big spike up this morning so I can buy some cheap puts. But I still want AMD to do better to provide better options to consumers. INTC came back strong due to the competition from AMD. "Muh Vega" is too late.
>>55313575
Best poo you can put in your loo
But jokes aside, I hope AMD will make the best GPU on the market
