Not a shill, but you can buy a 970 for the same price, more perforcmance and without the risk of burning down your pcie slots.
In Europe the 970 is only 249,95 now, same price as the 480.

>>55392648
Not this shit again.
Nvidia has been pulling more than the 75W PCI-express spec since forever.
Where are all the dead motherboards caused by the GTX 960?
RIP AMD
The 6 pin is out of spec and it still draws too much on the PCIe slot.
>>55393183
I'd rather have a burned PCI slot, than a burned down house from upcoming driver updates from nvidia.
Also, a stock 480 beats a stock 970 75-80% of the time, and has much better VR performance.
>>55392648
Yeah, those two extra ground pins will totally make the card function correctly

Why would you buy a card with only 3.5GB of vRAM and significantly worse performance than a Rx 480?

Nigger, I've had radeons since forever, now running a 6950 double crossfire. But since Pajit took over it all went to shit.
As a consumer all I'm seeing is a card that was announced to beat 1080, but in reality lands between 960 and 970, while having a fat chance of burning your motherboard.
I'm now really considering waiting for the nvidia price drop and getting 2 970s.

Nobody ever said it would compete with a 1080, this card is only $200 are you retarded? Also it actually beats a 980 multiple times especially in DX12 games.

They said it would on 2 occasions. I remember that part clearly.
That's what supposedly was so special about the card, it would outperform the top range for only 200 bucks.

damn can't argue with this AMD logic. Guess I better start shitting in the street
>>55393785
Because you don't want to break compatibility with old games once new hardware with overhauled architecture are released?
You know if DX9/10/11 worked like DX12/Vulkan or any other low level api do, every game that isn't supported by the developer would have stopped working correctly in new hardware.
>>55393808

because AMD can't into drivers
and btw I never said DX11 is perfect, just that it's not automatically inefficient since the extra work it's doing is what every DX12 app will have to do by itself now
>>55393846
People still play the original Call of Duty.. so YES.
>>55393879
>The company is notoriously infamous for shitty drivers.
Yer, but just look. The 480 outperforms the 970 and 980 using DX12. All with "shitty drivers".
Nvidiots BTFO!
>>55393949
maybe you don't realize this, but the underperforming part of AMDs driver is gone in DX12. It's shifted over to the app.
If you want to see how poor it can be in DX11 look at project cars or something.
>>55393984

>Coincidentally, Project CARS is plastered with Nvidia logos in-game. Initial reaction from gamers was to lash out at Slightly Mad, claiming they were paid off by Nvidia to deliberately gimp the performance of AMD hardware.

>no proof
even if that's true what is preventing AMD from profiling the game and optimizing any poorly optimized code?
Gameworks is just standard D3D code. AMD can profile it and optimize just as they are probably doing with every other game.
>>55394044
There is proof. Here >>55394040
>The game runs PhysX version 3.2.4.1. It is a CPU based PhysX. Some features of it can be offloaded onto Nvidia GPUs. Naturally AMD can't do this.
This is just for starters. Read the rest.
>>55394044
>So, in short, the entire Project Cars engine itself is built around a version of PhysX that simply does not work on amd cards.
>Most of you are probably familiar with past implementations of PhysX, as graphics options that were possible to toggle 'off'. No such option exists for project cars.
>If you have and AMD GPU, all of the physx calculations are offloaded to the CPU, which murders performance.
>Many AMD users have reported problems with excessive tire smoke, which would suggest PhysX based particle effects.
>These results seem to be backed up by Nvidia users themselves- performance goes in the toilet if they do not have GPU physx turned on.
Nvidia are dodgy bastards.
>>55394054
and it's been shown that forcing physx to run on the cpu doesn't affect performance for nvidia users

It means the 480 is drawing too much power through the pcie slot, which can and will destroy your motherboard.
>>55393258
What destroys hardware?
Is it voltage spikes?
No,
It's heat from too much current flowing through the motherboard.
Even AMD are addressing the issue as an overcurrent problem. Keep strawmanning with the sam shitty graphs that show a lower average for nvidia pajeet.

Why is relevant technology always cheaper in America? Is it because American companies offer a Patriot Discount™ for their products?

>>55395561
>runs slower != less efficient
The D3D11 runtime and drivers are doing more work for you. It's to be expected that they can be slower.
>>55393042
If the card alone is pulling 200W then people with cheap PSUs can't use it regardless of connectors.

OEM pc builds. Historically owned by nvidia cards like 960/950/750ti. Contrary what amd have you believe nvidia cards are much more efficient than amd.
>>55393258
it shows in the average 55W pull on 960strix and 80W pull on 480.
