So I've been on the red team for a while. All three of my AMD cards have had very slight problems and I think I'm finally tired of it. Now that the GTX 1080 is out, which one should I buy?
EVGA, Gigabyte, or MSI?
Wait for the Rx 490, it's gonna rape the GTX 1080.
The Rx 480 already left Nvidias asshole bleeding and brutally bruised.
>>55376622
Are you sure though? Top end AMD never beats top end Nvidia.
>>55376622
>wait
>believing in AMD after the shit they just recently pulled
Please stop pajeet.
>>55376597
Gosh, yes, that is a puzzling conundrum fellow unbiased consumer. My sincere advice is that I'd recommend buying two GeForece GTX 1080s so that you can experience two different brands. With the low, low price of the GeForce GTX 1080, there's never been a better time to run an SLI setup!
>>55376597
I don't know why anyone would buy anything other than gigabyte. historically and factually always the best build, the best card, best overclocking, and sickest looking
>>55376766
>I don't know why anyone would buy anything other than gigabyte
Gotta agree breh. Never had a prob with any Gigabyte stuff
>>55376727
Pretty sure. AMD is going all out with the Rx 490.
Rape would be putting it lightly to what AMD plans to do to Nvidia with the Rx 490.
Pic related is possible specs. Launch date is rumoured to be Q3 2016 now.
>>55376823
Do they just suck at making AMD cards then? Or have I been misinformed about that? I've always bought sapphire for red cards.
>>55376870

Your golden cow is dead pajeet, stop building another one.

>>55376905
Their first 14nm offering doesn't even beat the majority of Nvidia's 28nm lineup from 2 years ago. Please ignore the pajeets.
>>55376597
EVGA is always the best bet with nvidia cards, unless you find a deal or are otherwise attached to some other manufacturer. EVGA has always had close (exclusive) ties to Nvidia, and EVGA tends to use the reference designs for their cards which are more solid and reliable.

Seems like you have a lot to say about Nvidia's problems while ignoring the fact that every major reviewer and AMD themselves have acknowledged that the PCI power draw.

hey tard did you even read?
both of them found the card was drawing 80 -84 watts
the problem is pcper being an nvidia shill site as always instead of actually showing the entire 75 watts of the pcie (2 rails) they showed only the 1 66 watts on the table that alone resulted into the wattage to the eyes of simple apes to go into the stratosphere
literally throwing shit just because >muh nvidia money

lel
paid drones all over /g/
>>55377405
Yes and the PCI-E specification is rated for 66w with a 9% lee way that's 75 watts. And even then they managed to breach those standards AT STOCK SPEEDS.
LITERALLY RISING TO 50+% OVER THE RATING WITH OVERCLOCK.
Jesus fuck even AMD has acknowledged the issue. Will you stupid shills just accept that AMD fucked up and move on?
>>55377430
>Falsified the results
Yes major independent review sites are falsifying test results because they don't favor AMD.
Please take your retardation back reddit
>>55377388
Reading comprehension is not one of your strengths, is it grandpa?
>>55377455
please give me a link that shows pcie having a 66 watt spec
please do so
oh wait you cant? what you mean you cant? but you said its "MAJOR INDEPENDT SITE"
how can they lie!
>>55377167
wow its real
Top kek
Hey fucktard. There's these things called 12 v rails right? And the PCI-E slot is rated for 5.5A so you take the 12 v and multiply it by 5.5A to give you 66w like how math works right?
After that you take the result shove it in your anus and kys.
>>55377437
looks like someone needs a math lesson
you fucking idiot all the pcie slot are dual rails
one 12v and one 3.3v those combined gives 75 watts at MINIMUM k? k
now when a paid shill site says the card had a maximum draw of 80 watts on pcie and then goes and show only the 12v rail this is false in a universal scale because you artificially increase the wattage over 12% which IS NOT TRUE
>>55377474
take 12 v and multiply it by the rated 5.5A for the PCI-E slot. I know grade school math is hard.
>>55377520
NVIDIOTS BLOWN THE FUCK OOOOOOOUUUUUUTTTTT!!
>>55377549
Yeah, you see the problem is that the 480 is taking 6-9A on the 12 v rail fuckface.

>>55377549
>math lesson
The math is 12 x 5.5A = 66w fuckface
>>55377593
no sir
the problem is on their whole vomit of article they claimed that the card was drawing 80.5 watts on stock clocks at the pcie slot
now we know that the pcie draws 75 watts
later on on the second page almost at the bottom you see a table
the table instead of showing 75 watts pci slot->480 80.5 watts
its saying
12v 66 watts ->480 80.5 watts which is not true simple as what
the pcie slot is a dual rail one since its inception as a standar and pcper just literally changed it to suit their green sponsor nothing less nothing more
the 12v accounts for 70% of the pcie slot power the second one gives the 30%
>>55377520

>claimed that it was drawing
They used this thing called 'measuring equipment' like 'riser cards'.
Please stop talking about what you don't understand.
The thing you can measure is the CURRENT running through the board. You get that and multiply it by the voltage to get the watts.
The problem is caled OVERCURRENT The watts are simply a measurement of the power. The problem is the current running through the motherboard causing fucking heat issues. PLEASE GO LEARN SOME FUCKING GRADE 10 PHYSICS REEEEEEEEE
>>55377649
>now we know that the pci-e draws 75 watts
No, the rating is 12v @ 5.5A with tolerances of about 8-9% bringing up that 75W number
the 480 is drawing 6-9A at the 12 volt rail. It will literally melt your motherboard with prolonged use.
I wonder who could be behind all this FUD
>>55377715
no?
NO?
are you actually denying that the pcie slot is a dual rail one since its fucking was pcie 1.0?
ARE YOU ACTUALLY SAYING THIS?

The mobo can't take that amount of Amps going through the fucking slot you fucktard. It's going to create enough heat that the slot can't get rid of and destroy the slot and the surrounding hardware. It has already happened, AMD have already acknowledged the issue and are trying to fix it, but you and your fucking retarded brainwashed red or dead mind can't accept the fact that AMD fucked up with the PCI-E slot power draw

tl rd
pcie slot gives 75 watts
pcper says the cards on the slot gets 80
pcper later shows that the card got 80 on the 12 v rail completly removing the second 3.3v slot of the pcie
he literally said pcie is 66 watts

no fucking maths no nothing he deliberately changed the number to suit his need

>>55377902
The highest power draw I measured with the RX 480 at stock settings showed 80-85 watts of power draw at over 7A on the +12V line and 4.5-5.0 watts of power draw on the 3.3V line. These were consistent power draw numbers, not intermittent spikes, and users have a right to know how it works. When overclocked, we witnessed motherboard PCIe slot
+12V power draw at 95+ watts!
PCIE SLOT MOTHERFUCKER SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT POWER FROM THE PINS JESUS FUCK YOU'RE INSUFFERABLY RETARDED.
THE GRIPE IS THAT THEY'RE DRAWIN OVER 75 W FROM THE SLOT NOT THE PINS THEY'RE VIOLATING THE PCI-E STANDARD AT THE SLOT
>>55377984
obviously you dont know shit about hardware do you know i suggest you start from this
he literally said pcie specs 12v +-8= 66 watts
while the rest of the world that do have a simple understanding about hardware knows that the pcie is 75 on dual rail configuration since before chirst was born
>>55378063
wat is dual rail?
>>55378063
12 v at 5.5 A is 66 watts add the tolerances and you end up with about 75W.
We are talking about the slot not the pins.
>>55378054
the slot not the pins
the slot NOT THE PINS
THE SLOT NOT THE PINS
meanwhile on pcper site
pcie specs 12v +-8
66 wats !
the RX 480 was just a Nvidia ruse cruise
Nvidia shills overhyped it as having gtx 980 performance so that Nvidia can use the whole "1060 will have gtx 980 performance" campaign in hope of pulling people who fell for the hype
It literally says slot there.
>66 watts
Yes 12 multiplied by 5.5 is 66 watts.
>>55378022
Wouldn't Novidia just need a driver to address the DX12 performance? Pretty sure it isn't hardware related.
>>55378098
There we go, shitty PSU, 11.45V on the 12V rail, that's 0.8A more to make up for the lacking Voltage.
>>55378075
dual rail is
the pcie slot gets from the 24 pin connector of the motherboard
1)12v 66 wats
and
1)3.3v 9 watts
the whole thing on this thread is that they dont want to admit that pcper is deliberately misleading everyone by saying pcie specs->66 watts which is not since the first day they created pcie..
now normally the card draws 80 watts instead of 75 and that is 9% up but if you change the number to pcper one and do it at 66 you will get an increase of 12% which is stupid by any standar
>>55378176
thx
>>55376622
You do realize the 1070 is already destroying the 480 right? So if logic follows the 1080 is going to obliterate the 490.
>>55378176
>misleading
The 5.5A limit in the PCI-E standard is specific.
The fact that it's pulling 6-9A seems to be lost on you.
The percentages are literally more alarming on the current side of things than the power.
It's the current that generates the heat. The 3.3v of shit won't even generate that much heat to begin with.
>>55377204
Just like the 280x compared to the 760 :^)
>>55378022
>shills of tomorrow review
lol try again with an actual benchmark buddy
>>55378176
So you're denying that they're not violating the 5.5A standard for the PCI-E slot on the 12v rail?
You do know that current is far more damaging from the 12v rail that the literally battery tier 3.3v rail right?
>>55376870
nvidia always releases 4 tiers of GPUs, they have yet to release their enthusiast cards, of which the GTX1080ti would be part of and another card we don't know of yet.
that being said, it will probably cost 1k+ considering thats what the titan went for here
>>55378212
>>55378237
find me a motherboard that has a pcie slot at 66 watts
i dare you
i double dare you
when you find it (never) then you can come back here and have a proper technical discussion over how they draw a max of 80 watts on a pcie slot of 66 watts that simply dont exist
AMD had one job: release a decent fucking card this year. It didn't have to be top of the fucking chart, just decent.
What happens? SHIT ensues that they could have avoided by just applying fucking good quality-assurance.

>PCI-E slot at 66w
They're all 5.5A rated at the 12v rail
>>55378283
>how they draw a max of how they draw a max of 80 w
By overcurrenting which is literally the problem that they have addressed OFFICIALLY
11.55 v x 6.96 A = 80.388w
Refute my math
Evga for sure. Nvidia is the best imo. Ive always had problems with ati drivers being really shitty. and never even used an amd. They cost alot more but imo its worth it to spend.
>>55377930
I just look up the game play its amazing.
>>55378290
So did I, the annoying AMD shills on this board combined with how god awful the 480 is prompted me to shabbos goy up and just buy a 1070 and I'm very happy with it
For x16 cards, it's 75w. 6-pin connector supplies another 75w.

ok here it is im gonna try to say it like im talking to ape
mother board has a 24 connector to get power
that connector gives at each pcie 2 rails 1 of 12 v and one of 3.3 this is since pcie 1.0 NOTHING HAS changed
now pcper claim this
>It seems clear at this point that the new AMD Radeon RX 480 does in fact draw more power through both the motherboard PCI Express connection and the 6-pin power connection
he says 80 watts for pcie slot
and then he goes apeshit idioitc and on the pcie spec table and he says it draws only 66 watts and deliberately forgets to put the 3.3v rail simple as that
he basicly claims on that the card was getting 80 watts only on the 12 v which he basicly nullified with his own words
end of story
>>55378410
The 480 manages to pull over 160w.
They're violating both the ATX and PCI-E slot standards.
>>55378424
>only draws 66 watts
No, he says the standard for the 12 v rail at 5.5A is 66 watts which it is.
>The card was only getting 80 watts
Yes the amps they got from testing were lies. What matters is the amount of current we're getting from the AA battery tier 3.3v amirite?
Please stop posting now.

I don't dispute that. It's a potentially fatal mistake for AMD. They needed a good launch but killing some mobos is gonna scare a lot of people.
>>55378458
Yeah what's important is the 3.3v and the 4-5 watts they're pulling.
You really got the gist of the issue there mang.

no he says on tha table that the pcie specs is 12v aka 66 watts
is it? is the pcie ONLY 66 watts?
before this he says the card gets from the pcie slot 80
true
now lets do some math
75 watts +5% give us 80.something watts what the card draws on toms
pcper pcie 66 watts+22% give us 80.75 watts
now if you add to that the remaining 9% that is missing from the 66 you get a fucking 31% increase on the wattage in stock claims that is 98 watts
does this ever come close to the truth? hmmmm
NO

RX480
>>55378567
>missing 3.3v rail
So the 3.3v rail is basically going to add 4-5 watts to the total. It still doesn't change the fact that the main issue is with the OVERCURRENTING ON THE 12V RAIL
Jesus fuck just kill yourself
The proper specifications are 66w = 12v 5.5A and 3.3v at 3A which is a measly 10w.
Go ahread and pretend that the 3.3v rail makes any amount of a shit lick of difference when you're pulling 6-9A off the 12V rail which is what will destroy your motherboard.
>>55378609

are you actually retarded or something? the second rail is not the problem
the claim that he somehow got 80 watts on a 12v ALONE is
this is what he claims on the table
which is not true this is 12% below a normal pcie and +10 below of its actually reading of the card...

>he somehow got 80 w on the 12v alone
These are things which are 'measured' not 'claimed'. this is a flaw in your reasoning.
>>55378697
The chart was to outline a bad case scenario
>The highest power draw I measured with the RX 480 at stock settings showed 80-85 watts of power draw at over 7A on the +12V line and 4.5-5.0 watts of power draw on the 3.3V line
This is what he measured you stupid fucktard
>>55378611
It's literally like 5 people who come everyday and start denying it all because they keep saying the same uneducated shit. None of their "facts" can dispute the fact there's fucking evidence showing the 480 causing motherboards to shut off.
>>55378646
Thanks. Ill save for a 1080 then
>hurr durr bad price / performance
I guess this is the price of sticking with Windows 7 and wanting good performance.
>>55378736
do you even understand what you quote? do you even see the table?
WHERE IS THE SECOND RAIL to give the combined 66+9 watts =75 watts?
NOWHERE it just removes the 3.3v rail and slaps the 12v and says the card its getting 80 watts from this alone
which is not true end of story
now go to nvidia hq and get your paycheck
>>55378697
Hey fucktard. He didn't mention the 3.3v rail because it was negligible. He was trying to show how much the 480 was violating the specifications.
The 66w number is based on a 12 v 5.5A rating.
He literally adjusts the numbers accordingly. Add 5-7 w numbers if you want they're still going to be over 75w you stupid fucking cunt.
>>55378707
A fury x which costs $650 gets bottlenecked on this game too. What's your point?
>>55378758
WHY DOES HE NEED TO MENTION IT IT'S LITERALLY JUST A BAD CASE SCENARIO HE DOESN'T NEED TO ADD THE FUCKING 3.3 V RAIL BECAUSE IT'S ALREADY SO FAR ABOVE THE 75W RATING FROM THE FUCKING 12 v RAIL ALONE HOLY FUCK SHUT UP ALREADY
>>55376597
since i found out these amd/nvidia threads are containment threads for ppl who know nothing about technology, I haven't needed to ask questions about it. Brilliant system.
>>55378766
>>55378784
Stop replying to him. He comes here everyday and posts the same shit. Just leave it. Let him live in denial amd ignoring the clear evidence showing peoples motherboards turning off with this card.
>>55378758
>where is the 2nd rail
Why do you need the 2nd rail, he's using the 66w number which is solely the 12v rail as a baseline. Why are you mentioning the 3.3v rail like an autist. Does it change the fact that it's drawing more than the rated current and power for the 12 v rail?
If not shut the fuck up and kys now.
you are all beneath me
Get a fucking degree and build shit

>It seems clear at this point that the new AMD Radeon RX 480 does in fact draw more power through both he motherboard PCI Express connection and the 6-pin power connection
>PCI Express connection
>6-pin power connection
>80 watts on pcie slot
>no 12v rail
>paid shills still defending their pr site
>>55378904
>kill yourself
>>55378812
>PCI Express connection is the sameas the ATX plug
Please stop posting, you're reducing the collective IQ of this baord.

>kek always nice to fuck with paid shills
>>55378939
get some basic hardware lessons kid
>atx plug
>>55378954
>lets just post some meaningless shit to make me think I'm right
No, fucktard. 7A is still bigger than 5.5A and 7A x 12 v = 84 w which is 27% over the 66w spec for 12 v rail.
>>55378992
yes you moron
but the pcie doesnt have only ONE rail NEVER did
they clearly said they had 80 watts on the pcie slot
the pcie is 75 WATTS they literally had the same result as tom which is 9% above the 75 watts
but what they showed is that the card was getting 80 watts ONLY ON THE 12V aka 66% 22% fucking percent above and im not gonna mention that you need to compansate for the 9% that is missing through the 3.3v rail for a total on the fucking pcie slot of 98 watts only ON STOCK
do you see how big of a difference that shit is? pcper literally said 480 was surpassing gtx 590
>>55379100
stop it pajeet, it's embarrassing even AMD have addressed the issue while you're still denying that the issue exists.

Neck yourself
>>55376597
>All three of my AMD cards have had very slight problems
lol
I'm waiting for another 480
>>55379195
>It's not an issue
It most certainly is an issue and AMD are trying to fix it.
>>55379100
This pajeet is still trying to claim that it isn't.

I've used EVGA for years and have nothing but good things to say about them.
I just received my EVGA GTX 1080 SC yesterday. Fantastic card.
I've heard MSI is another top tier brand.
