Which one of these shitpiles will you be buying /g/
Volta.
I'll stick to my 980, maybe get a second one to SLI on the cheap. Glad I didn't listen to /g/
Pascal because AMD chose a HOUSEFIRES process from Samshit & fabbed at GloFo, an ever shittier fab than Samshit

>One observation I made today which was particularly concerning, was that both with the Snapdragon 820 LG G5 as well as the Exynos 8890 Galaxy S7 got considerably warm after running some heavy workloads. The fact that the Galaxy S7 touts having a heat-pipe thermal dissipation system is a quite worrying characteristic of the phone and should in no way be seen as a positive feature as it points to high power draw figures on the part of the SoC.
Enjoy your HOUSEFIRES, AMDPOORFAGS
I'll be going with mario
Unless they get shit on

Nvidia is the only one who actually burned a house
>>53738311
down
None, I already got a great deal on a Nano so I'll stick with it. Call me back when 14nm is proven not to be a housefire.
probably a 980 ti when the prices drop
>>53738363
christ. You have been spamming the same fucking assumption for weeks now. Are you just a sperglord or do you have some kind of medical condition?
That said none of the SD820 phones (mi5, lg5) or the Exynos Galaxy S7 showed any sign of throttling or overheating during any of the reviews you can find. According to GSMArena the lg5 is the coolest flagship around.
Can you stop quoting anandcurry now?
>>53738363
You only ever seem to spam one source for this garbage and its only speculation, why don't you ever post some actual benchmarks?
>>53738363
>implying we haven't seen polaris running 4K with passive cooler
Nvidia is the leader of housefires for ages. See pic related
>>53738389
No houses were burnt down
AMD has burnt houses down though
>>53738624
source or faggot
>>53738615
>Speculation
>The article writer has held both S7 with Exynos and 820 fabbed on Samshit's crappy process after prolonged amount of time benchmarking
Keep on lying to yourself if it makes you feel better
>>53738665
>>53738541
you dumb m8
>>53738694
No, you're dumb
Anandtech is much thorough than other shitty websites
Apple wouldn't move A10 to TSMC 16nm FF+ if Samshit's process was actually good
>>53738733
>Curryshill who reviews pc hardware
>holds a phone which was fingered on by 3 dozen of actual journalists subjectively finds it slightly warm
That's of course more convincing then a site which publishes detailed cellphone reviews for ten years!
Also a person with a brain might see that samsung is apples main competitor and that apple might not want to throw money down their hatch.
>>53738665
>my hand got warm, that's my benchmark
Are you fucking serious?
>>53738259
Vega
>>53738733
Samsung doesn't have as much production as TSMC and will not be able to satisfy Apple's demands. Either way apple has to use TSMC. Samsung has barely enough production to make their own exynos for the galaxys and even then, some galaxys will come with snapdragons.
>>53738259
Ntards will defend this
>>53739026
You mean Global Foundries who have licensed Samsung's 14nm finfet?
let me know when games are worth playing
>>53739042
The 970 is shit, I don't think any nvidia followers defend it unless they own a 970
>>53739042
i like how the part where amd loses some frames, the nvidia card gains. nvidia is just shameless with their software
>>53738363
samsungs 14nm process is trash compared to TSMC's 16nm process. just look at the whole batterygate scandal.
http://bgr.com/2015/10/08/iphone-6s-a9-processor-samsung-tsmc-batterygate/
I wonder if I'd better get a 980Ti now or wait for the next gen. My 770 is still doing okay, but since I got a raise I want to upgrade it. Also, not AMD because their Linux drivers are shit.
>>53739595
Aren't AMD's drivers coming along? With finfets Polaris will be a pretty big jump.
>>53739042
>stock 970
this has been mentioned time and time again. DF limit their 970 to stay at stock speeds without any boosts. there is no 970 in existence that doesn't have atleast a boost clock or atleast a 200mhz overclock alongside an even higher boost clock. the 390 is by default an overclocked card since its literally an overclocked 290.
>stock 970 competes with a 290
>overclocked 970 competes with an overclocked 290 (390)
simple as.
>>53738259
If I can get a 390X or a fury for cheap when Polaris drops, probably that.
>>53739042
I have a 980 ti and I'm OK with openly admitting the 970 is garbage.
>>53739634
if the 390 was over clocked it would be the 390x if it was a 290 over clocked it would be called a 290x its a 390
>>53738259
By the time they're out and cheap as fuck I might finally feel like replacing my GTX 680. Probably not, though. I don't game as much and the 680 is more than enough for 1080p medium in most games.
I'm keeping my r7 260x, it's good enough for me and works well on GNU/Linux.
>>53738363
>Pascal because AMD chose a HOUSEFIRES process from Samshit & fabbed at GloFo, an ever shittier fab than Samshit
That's probably how Polaris performs on par with the 390 using only 90W.

>>53739757
no. a 390 is an overclocked 290 which is slightly more efficient in terms of cooling and has slightly less power draw due to node optimizations. the specs for each card are the exact same except for the clocks and vram.
the same goes for the 290x and 390x
people who buy the r9 3xx series card are being ripped off big time. you can get a 290 or 290x for like $100 cheaper than a 390 and 390x respectively, and do the overclocking yourself.
>>53738259
Neither Radeon nor Nvidia. I'll probably get a laptop early 2017 with an AMD 14nm APU where the CPU part is Zen quad core + hyperthreading, and the APU part is equivalent to a Radeon 7870.
I'm used to having a Radeon 7770, so I'll get double the graphics power.
Laptop because I'm renting and on the move. APU because I need to do something in my free time.
>>53740198
>having free time
Yuro scum
>>53739070
Global founderies is still slow on the uptake and I don't know any major companies that is using them other than AMD. Samsung has it's own fabs.
>>53739951
The ram helps with api overhead. Not to mention that the main reason the 390 beats the 970 is the vram. And y'know, the fact that the card appreciates instead of depreciating like nvidia. I've got 2 390's.
>>53739951
So are you saying if you just over clock your 290 you can beat the GTX970?
>>53740293
when the 970 came out it was better than the 290
it goes like this:
>stock 970 > stock 290
>overclocked 290 (aka 390) > stock 970
>overclocked 970 > overclocked 290 (aka 390)
there isn't even any point in overclocking the 390. digital foundry say its not even worth it due to heat and power consumption.
"Generally speaking, we don't recommend overclocking the R9 390 beyond the 1050-1070MHz territory seen in factory-overclocked cards - power consumption and heat generation rise enormously."

>>53740436
I don't know what you're smoking but the 390x can go up to 1250-1300
>>53740436
no no no buddy said the 390 is a over clocked 290 so all people had to do was over clock their 290s and it would have already been better than the 970.
I told you Nchucks would defend this.
>>53740285
Memory bandwidth and dx12
nice rig
Will buy any card priced 300€ max. that gives me atleast the performance of a R9 390 with less consumption than a GTX980.
>>53738259
Probably the R9 490 to replace my 290.
>>53740574
Wait for Polaris. That's exactly what you want. Jun-Jul.
>>53740522
>I don't know what you're smoking but the 390x can go up to 1250-1300
>article and post specifically say 390
>he still mentions 390x
reading comprehension mate, it helps.
>>53740545
stop deluding yourself. why would anyone buy a 290 and overclock it when the 970 was much cheaper than the 290 when it released (forcing ayymd to drop the price kek) and also performed way better when overclocked.
an overclocked 970 competes with a fucking stock 980. an overclocked 290 (aka 390) just about beats a stock 970 lmao.
>>53740717
>gaming at 1440 on 3.5gb DDDR5
Just get a 390 and overclock/390x
The drivers of my gtx 760 have been getting worse and worse since September. I may go back to AMD for my next card since i like their mentality.
>>53738363
>Enjoy your HOUSEFIRES, AMDPOORFAGS
Keeps me warm during the winter, I can't complain.
>>53740700
>Jun-Jul.
More like Autumn
>>53740820
this i have my intake at the back at my case pc to blow warm air on me
Not doing shit until Fury X replacement in 2017
>>53741017
>buying a flagship
>to replace it barely a year later
can i have your fury x then
>>53741098
Eh he might end up spending ~150-200 for a Vega (~500). Not bad, especially if it as room for overclocking.
>>53741017
Sounds like a waste of cash going from one to the other
>>53738259
Mario
>>53738259
Which ever one benchmarks better on the games I play. I won't use pre-release benchmarks for either though.
>>53740646
>wait for Polaris 11
thats the low end GPU
>>53738259
Polaris 10
Because I'm passing the 380x.
>>53738259
Unless AMD seriously steps up their driver game by the time the next series comes out, Nvidia again as usual.
The latest driver release alone gives us nvidia users:
>10-bit output
>KMS / DRM
>EGLStreams
>Vulkan support
Meanwhile AMD cards can't even vsync right.
>>53739757
>390 was over clocked it would be the 390x
>R9 390: 2560 shaders, 160 texture mapping units
>R9 390X: 2816 shaders, 176 texture mapping units
You're a fucking retard and you should feel bad
>>53742596
>he thinks Nvidia has good drivers
o i am laffin
>>53738259
70% sure that I'll sell my 280x and buy the 4GB 470(x) or possibly 480
If anything I'm going to get a new processor. I don't okay too maximum of games and my 970 at 1080p is pretty comfy
