>So, will this cutie blow 480 out of the water?
Probably not. It's only 15% better by Nvidia's own tests. Remember how two RX 480s 'beat a GTX 1080'? Those are the only kinds of tests that are used here, no exceptions.
>GTX 980 performance for what, 250 bucks?
That would be amazing, but if the 960 and 760 are any indication it'll be more expensive than AMD's comparable offerings.

It fucking better be 980 tier or above if the rumored $250(3gb)/$300(6gb) pricing is true. And if not, they better cut the price to compete with the rx 480.

The owner of the largest UK web store said earlier that he's expecting them to be priced at £300. And you'd think he'd know, given he'll be selling them in a week or two. That's going to mean at least $300, given that we're paying slightly less than the dollar price (in absolute terms, rather than converted) for the other Pascal cards.

Not really. They know that people will pay it. The 1080 is apparently selling faster than the 970, despite the fact that the 970 was great value and the 1080 is gouged to fuck.

Nvidia won. They own the market. People will pay whatever they charge.

I'd take his speculation over yours, friend. And we already know that the 1060 will be around 980 performance. Nvidia can easily get away with selling that at 970 prices. In fact, it fits in exactly with the rest of their Pascal pricing. The 1070 is 980 Ti performance for 980 prices.

Nvidia have kept their advantage over AMD.

But there are enough retards here on the board and elsewhere who continue to hype up the RX480.

If it's as powerful as a 980Ti and priced <250 it could take away AMDs only private customer base, the budget gamer.

>GTX 980 performance for what, 250 bucks?

It'll cost $300, with $350 for the founders edition, and it'll be out of supply so hard that you can only buy it for $400+ on ebay.

This is the future you chose, midrange cards cost $400 now due to Nvidia monopoly.
>>
>>55358999
I don't think it will blow anything AMD has old or new out of the water. I'm sure it might be able to keep up with an old 7950 perhaps but maybe not. Read they're gimping it with 4GB/6GB versions too which is a damn shame. Nvidia has always been more of a joke on anything but the best card. I'd love to be surprised though and see some actual Nvidia mid range offerings that lasted more than a year though. It just hasn't been the case in many (six? seven?) years.

The issue with the 970 vram is not the capacity, it's that all the vram slows down once the second .5gb partition starts being used. The 970 would be a better card if it legitimately only had a single partition of 3.5gb vram.

It won't be, because Nvidia is not even really competing with AMD. They have the mindshare, there are lots of people who won't buy anything AMD ever so it doesn't matter what they bring to the table. Nvidia knows they are going to lose some of their market share this gen but they don't really mind. They just want to minimize it. The 470 will be $150. it'll be around 10-15% worse than a 480. Think Nvidia will release a card that strong for $150? I highly doubt it.

The reference card costs less than aftermarket cards for AMD. The reference 480 (and all reference cards) are shit and nobody should buy them. Hypothetically, if the $300 is for the FE 6gb 1060, then aftermarket 1060s will be on par with the 480s in terms of price. If not, then the 1060s will cost more, and also perform better/consume less power, so the price/performance will be on par. This is all just early speculation though.
>>
>>55360296
The 980 Ti is about equal or on par or even better than a Titan X. So this comparison is meaningless. There are a few $400 1070s, but most of them are around $450.

>there are lots of people who won't buy anything AMD ever

I think that's because Nvidia have spent ludicrous amounts of money over the last decade to build "relationships" with publishers and developers in addition to their gigantic R&D budget. Nvidia made it clear that they care about the very performance top end and cut down their PCBs from there while AMD has been building alright mid-range cards and kept overclocking them until they reach 90°C and have to auto throttle. When you have the strongest cards on the market you attract a very specific type of customer. The type that wants that ultra high fidelity, max settings, 60+ fps experience(i know how pretentious that sounds) and those customers can't stop talking about how great the product is, also those customers being streamers/youtubers with 5000+ viewers and millions of subscribers turns them into influencers so the customer becomes part of the marketing.

AMD don't have the budget for either, the marketing or the R&D so they exist purely thanks to the budget gamers with 150 dollar GPUs and the contracts with Sony and Microsoft for the PS4 and the Xbox One.

why even buy last gen midrange trash if you're upgrading from old midrange trash? just save your dosh and get a second hand or refurb 980ti. you can get them for $300-400 now that the 1070 and 1080 are cannibalizing sales.

>>55360550
>you'd be fucking delusional to think the 1060 could beat a 980. that's a tall order.

1060 will probably be between 970 and 980 perf or roughly stock 980 perf for $250. 1060ti will be $300 and sit between the 1060 and 1070 as a value option.
>>
>>55360687
Quite a few choices imo. AMD wise you have anything from the 290-390 and x variants. I'd even look at 380/370 nitro cards. 480 looks to be based as well. Nvidia doesn't have anything comparable at the moment unless you nab a 980 or ti version for 200-300 which is unlikely. Check used maybe?

Gta 5 works perfectly fine on 2gb cards, it scales very well. Mirrors edge on high uses at most ~3/3.5 gb vram and hyper uses up to 7.5gb but it was specifically made for the new 1070/80.

>For this latest release, DICE has taken PC visual fidelity to a new level, taking full advantage of the power of our new GeForce GTX 1080 and 1070 graphics cards.

>Making full use of their blistering performance, and 8GB framebuffer, DICE is able to dramatically increase environmental detail and shadow quality on the new 10 Series graphics cards, and further improve the quality of reflections, visual effects, environmental maps, image based lighting, motion blur, and Resolution Scale’s downsampling. Classed as “Hyper” settings, these enhancements enable users to explore a richer, more detailed city on the very best PCs and graphics cards, delivering the definitive Mirror's Edge™ Catalyst experience.

You shouldn't really base your opinions on this one game with a setting that wasn't made for 4gb cards.

In all honesty, the 3GB version seems kinda weak even for 1080p. I just got rid of my 280x in part because I want more VRAM. Many cards have the 4GB config now. There are only a few with 3GB and even fewer with 6GB, but 6GB>4GB.

>>55362661
Interestingly the 8GB 390 doesn't do that well, indicating to me that it isn't powerful enough for all that VRAM. Makes me be glad to be getting the 4GB 470.

We've known this for a long time. There are even articles about it which prove the 390/x can't use that amount of vram because they're simply not powerful enough to crunch that amount of data.

960 is just a tad bit higher than half of 970.
Nvidia retarded pricing of their lower end puts 960 in an horrible price/perf chart.

1060 is about 30% ~ 25% of 1070.
Given the performance and price history, I doubt that it would be any lower than $270 for 6GB version.
Sub $250 might be for the 3GB version, but that amount of ram is barely enough for modern title.

If it's close to 980ti and less than $250 I'll get one.

Nvidia doesn't price their cards based on performance, it's just a tier.

970 was $330, 1070 is $380 (+$50)
980 was $550, 1080 is $600 (+$50)

If they follow the same pattern the 960 will have to be $250

960 was $200, 1060 will be $250 (+$50)

>>55371586
Yeah but it will most likely for the 3GB version.
>>
>>55371174
the differnce is nvidia is saying 1060 will beat its own card 980, so its basically 100% it will beat 980 or nvidia gets crucified. AMD never said themself it will beat anything, just its shills spreading lies (because they knew it could beat 980).

Also remember when shills were spreading lies thatn 1070/1080 will have exact performance of 980/980ti? You think it was the nvidia shills that were spreading that and pot poo in loo?

Still going on with this shit despite proof of the opposite? It's actually the 480 that overclocks like shit. Some Korean or whatever couldn't even get 1500mhz with a waterblock
>>
>>55372528
reference RX 480 is power limited. Putting a waterblock on it won't change that.
Even with a custom air cooler you can get constant 1350Mhz, which is a 15% performance increase out of the reference 480. On a custom board with more power you can easily get 1500Mhz.

Remember: reference RX 480 actually clocks below 1200MHz in games, so that's what all the benchmarks are running at.

The 1060 should be much faster than the 480, but much more importantly, it will be much more reliable

Literally nothing in the leak says anything about a 3GB version.
It will be a 6GB card, and unless they want to price it out of the market, it will probably be $249 MSRP. Hell I'm not sure they'll even do a founders' for a low end model like this.

600series are vs hd7000 series.Which is fairly equal comparison. Why do nvidia faggot always try to twist facts?
