You ARE going to buy the RX 480, right /v/?
>>340479129
No.I'm going to wait for the 490 instead
yea
benchmarks when
the value sounds good but it might be too shitty for 1440p which is what I want
>>340479129
Can I really buy a GPU with a sticker of some cute anime girls on it? I am in need of an upgrade and this will definitely make me buy AMD over Nvidia.
>>340479129
Hell nah. It's not even worth the upgrade compared to what I have now. The 1070 is a more realistic upgrade for me, and titan x performance for ~£320 is a fucking bargain.
>>340480432

>With Titan X and 980 Ti-like performance, the GTX 1070 looks like the best option for 1440p gamers, delivering well north of 60 FPS in nearly every game we tested.
No, I'm impatient so I'm getting a 1070.
>tfw want to buy 1080 but I'm getting a FreeSync monitor
All this waitfaggings gonna kill me
>>340479129
Nah, GTX 1080.
>>340480343
I'm not upgrading anytime soon
>>340482080

>>340479129
i have a 390 and i live in a third world country so no.
>>340482198
Its for exterminating Nvidiaroaches
>>340479129
I literally got a 390 like right before I found out about this. Will I be able to just get this and have both on my motherboard? It says it's 'crossfire compatible' or something like that and I think that means I can
Ill probably wait for the 490 or 1070
I can't really be bothered to wait for HBM2 when my 6870 is slowly dieing.
>>340479129
I'm considering it since I'm planning on building my first PC soon. I'll wait for it to come out and see how it does on some games I want to play first though.
>>340483141
>Ill just wait for the next product
The eternal song of the AMDfag
>>340483141
490 is prooobably going to be the HBM2 Vega chip bruh.
>>340479129
Meaby yes, but not reference, I want to see some costum products first.
>I'm still kicking with my 280x
>>340479129
No, I'm not poor. I'd rather pay for the best GPU on the market right now.
>>340479129
nah, picking up the 1070 sometime soon.
>>340479129
can somebody spoonfeed me some reference benchmarks that include a good number of older cards
I wanna know if I should upgrade if it's such a big deal
No, waiting for 8GB HBM2.

The anime bitches are from a cute blog thing promoting AMD in Japan.
>>340479129
Or 490, or some x variation. But AMD better hurry the fuck up, getting real tired of waiting for their shit
>>340485542
Wait for Vega~
Wait for Zen~
>>340479129
waitan for benchmarks but leaning towards 1070
Nvidia's a piece of shit company but I'm kind of obligated to use their products because of the shit they pull to gimp AMD products.
My power supply died and i need a new one, only got a hundred bucks to wastte, which one helps me run games on a budget
>>340485656
It seems like this gen of cards is literally the one we have all been waiting for
>>340485795
Don't skimp on your PSU ya dingus, it can fry every other part in your computer if it fucks up.
>>340485664
Nvidia gimps their own cards more than they do AMD, anon.
Just look at the GTX 700s series right now, they're absolute trash after all the gimping.
AMD at least works around and improves over time.
>>340485939
Oh really? Thanks for the heads up anon I'll be careful
My computer is a piece of crap.
Will a new card help revive it or is it not worth it until I get a whole new computer?
>>340485795
Dont try to be cheap on PSU, or you will have bad time
Waiting for the benchmarks. I have the PSU to run two 480s on Crossfire but that has its own problems, which can be sidelined if its true that two of these are more powerful than a 1080. Otherwise might as well go 1070 ans get another one later.
Good, keep the weebshit away from nvidia
>>340479129
Waiting for the RX 490, I want that HBM2
>>340485529
Well they should add some and then I can buy. Maybe some lolis.
>>340479129
Already preordered my EVGA 1080 FTW card.
>>340479869
When its released fuckknuckle
>>340486407
go get yourself a z/h170 board
8gb ddr4 2133Mhz or up
i5-6600k or a locked i5, or even really an i3 if you're cheap or college boy
then get a new card
:^)
>>340485795
Don't cheap out on the PSU. I made that mistake and thank fucking christ only fried my mobo and not literally everything.
Go Gold or go home. It is the only part in a computer you will never ever have to replace because its outdated or something. You can skimp on the CPU if you're on a budget. Memory speeds don't matter that much either. Literally milliseconds you get in data transfer.
Same goes for SSDs.
But not for PSUs. The Bronze Silver Gold shit isnt just marketing.
Gold or go home.
>>340486407
A newer card could probably help a little but not a 480 or higher end card, you'll be bottle necking the shit out of it with that cpu, and who knows what PSU you have now. In my opinion, destroy and rebuild broseph.
>>340486407
Time to upgrade your rig, anon. CPU ain't gonna cut it.
>>340481914
Freesync and g-sync are complete memes, dude. 144hz and vsync are just as good, if not better in many cases. Don't even factor them into your purchase.
I have a 390. The upgrade isn't worth 200 european dollars.
>>340486879
>Vsync is just as good as adaptative sync
Holy shit this guy
>>340483038
yes
>>340486978
It literally is. Unless you feel like making an actual argument instead of memearrowing at me like a faggot, you can go fuck yourself.
>>340479129
Obviously.
Only a shabbos goy would go for Nvidia at this point.
>>340485656
better to wait for a AMD product that's an actual upgrade than buy the Mtn Dew GtXXXXXX 9999 Gimpworks edition that'll be worthless within a year
>>340487139
Fine.
>Juddering
>Framerate cut-downs
>Input lag
>Just as good
>>340486813
Well I was considering going a bit out of the way and geting a corsair RM1000i, that'd be good right?
>>340487197
Show me benchmarks of the same exact card on the same exact game before and after "gimping".
>>340486768
Thanks a lot!
>>340487268
Did you miss the 144hz? Takes care of all that. Come on.
>>340487473
No, it doesn't. If you can't hold 144 fps at all times you either get a cut down or juddering, and added input lag in both cases.
>>340487361
Remember the GTX 780 ti? :^)
The 980 and 980ti are soon to follow.
>>340479129
I know blower designs are shit in normal use cases but god damn that cooler is sex.
>>340486813
Fuck off nigger. You don't need a gold cpu ever. Gold has got nothing to do with reliability. A seasonic psu won't be better or worse in terms of reliability than a bronze seasonic psu. Gold is just how efficient it is when pulling power from the wall. Any bronze 500w or above psu from xfx, seasonic or evga will be just fine unless you're running 3xsli combined with 2 cpus on a server motherboard or some crazy shit like that.
For the anon asking about cpu check out logical increments, they tell you which brands are models are the best.
>>340486214
That's probably true. The new AMD card is a bit too weak for my tastes and crossfire has bad reviews from everyone, and I just don't want to wait any longer for their new product.
>>340485891
This famlapai.
When Nvidia was hyping up the 1080 I was ABSOLUTELY SURE that shit would be at the very least 899.
Then BAM, 599.
And the 1070, 379.
A 380 dollars card going toe to toe with the TitanX, a 1000 dollar card that was released just a year ago.
And now AMD with a 199 card that beats the 970.
Shit's crazy.
>>340486850
Thanks as well.
That is what I was figured.
>>340479129
Probably but I'll wait to see what the AIB partners produce.
>>340487658
Thanks for the completely worthless benchmark, you illiterate.

The 480's apparently as fast as a 980 so I'm hoping the 490 is even faster.
I want a good, significant upgrade from my 970. I want to take better advantage of my 144hz monitor.
It's either gonna be the 490 or 1080 at this point.
>>340486813
Any 80+ Bronze from a good brand like Seasonic or Corsair is fine.
>>340479129
Waiting for 470 since I only play at 1080p.
>>340487947
Lol they can't provide any evidence or benchmarks proving the 780 ti has gotten worse over time. There is more evidence showing it's hasn't been gimped than there is showing it has been gimped.

>corsair

top kek
they have some good units, but most of their low end/mid range stuff is mediocre/crap.
Stick to XFX/EVGA/Antec or Seasonic themselves.
>>340488165
A 1070 is already a significant upgrade over a 970.
Last gen if someone offered me a TitanX for 500 bucks I'd buy it at the spot.
Would the 480 be a good upgrade from the 270x?
>>340487753
>For the anon asking about cpu

>>340488441
We all value our money differently but honestly I think the gap is (will be) big enough to justify 200 bucks.

Bravo, AMD. Bravo.
Can nvidia cards take advantage of freesync?

That's not how it works.
Any bronze unit from a decent manufacturer is fine.
>>340479129
I only upgrade when I can get about 3x the performance for $200~.
Got a 7870 so I think I'll wait for the 580.
>>340488696
AMD has always been for poorfags
anyone thinking they will ever match Nvidia in performance is lying to themselves
>>340488696
Too bad all the kiddies getting into PC gaming only know about Nvidia.
>>340488228
Corsair USED to be good.
Literally had one of their 80+ gold blow up a clients computer. That was the last time I ever used Corsair PSU's.
Stick with EVGA.
>>340488727
No.
i am
1) it's not overpriced
2) it's a cute card! i like amd's stock cooler look
3) it's the perfect card for 1080p 60fps gaming. the gtx 1070 and 1080 are way way way way overkill for that!
>>340487753
>Gold CPU

Never.
>>340488797
Aren't they the same OEM's though?
>>340488901
This faggot knows it
my gtx 770 still feels fine 2bh
>>340489239
Same OEMs as what?
Most Corsair units aren't Seasonic, more like Delta/FSP.
Do some research on jonnyguru.com before buying a PSU.
>>340488865
Why not?
na, i'm debating on buying a jailbroken ps3 or ps4. i'm thinking i should just go with the ps3 since it'll give me access to a pretty big library of games i haven''t played for free.
No but my friend will probably buy it for me.
Are there games that utilize more than 4GB at 1080p? Dunno if I should ask for the 4GB or 8GB version.
i already have the gtx 780, why would i buy a card that is 300 less than what I have
>>340489204
Welp I ain't sacrificing hardware acceleration for amd. Guess I'll be with nvidia again this time round. I can't complain, they've served me well.
>>340489429
>Nvidiafag logic
>>340483038
definitely double check first
I always heard that you couldnt crossfire cards from separate series but maybe you can nowadays, do the research
>>340489429
because the 780 can only play games at 780p, DUH!
Why would I?
My 980's better.
>>340487612
Do you play fighting games or something?
Input lag only matters for fighting games, no other genre ever needs no lag.
>>340489307
Because monitors using Freesync use a custom version by AMD of the Adapatative sync functionality of DP 1.2a that can talk to the GPU, allowing you to enable Freesync in Windows. Nvidia GPUs wouldn't understand it.
The intereting thing however is that Nvidia could do their own version of that DP 1.2a module but instead keep using their proprietary chip that G-sync monitors need that costs $200 more, and yet you're still restricted to DP to use G-sync.
>>340479129
Negative. Already have a GTX 1080 FTW preordered. Waiting to play anything graphics intensive until it comes in.
>>340489645
>Arcade shooters don't benefit from latency reduction
>>340489358
1080p games run fine on 1gb or 2gb cards like the 750ti or the gtx 960gb/r9 380 2gb. Vram is almost never the limiting factor. You'll run out of gpu power before you hit a vram bottleneck (not talking about unoptimized garbage). Hence why the 390 and 390x are the biggest rippofs this gen. You can get a perfectly good 290 or 290x for $150 cheaper and overclock it to 290/x performance levels because the 300 series is literally a rebranded and overclocked 200 series.
>>340489851
Gtx 960 2gb*
>>340483038
Worst case scenario you could always simply sell your 390 on ebay or amazon, high end cards are always in demand.
>>340489970
>390
>"high end'
>>340490105
You're right. AMD is putting it in their "enthusiast" range.
>>340489851
By the way just to clarify I'm saying the 300 series is a ripoff because it has an extra 4gb unusable vram added to the rebranded 200 series.
>>340486768
so build a new pc?
I dunno.
480 is going to need crossfire to trade punches with the 1080, and crossfire is,usually questionable. Fuck waiting for vega.
Maybe the benchmarks will convince me, but the 1070 looks pretty nice.
when are 1070 non founder editions going to be released for purchase?
the 1080s are already in stock, even custom manufactured ones.
>>340490368
never trust crossfire or SLI. too many issues with games to trust performance.
>>340490368
why would it need to trade punches with the 1080
>>340490509
Because of how many people misconstrued that benchmark where AMD CF'd 2 480s and compared it to the 1070. People are now thinking that they're in direct competition.
>>340479213
This tbqh phamily
>>340490390
EVGA said their superclocked 1070 will go on sale June 10th, and then took that tweet down because that info is still under NDA. I'm going to guess that we'll see more OEM 1070's in stock and for sale faster than the 1080 because they had more time to build up stock and the 1070 uses more readily available memory.
>>340490509
Not him but no one was talking about it trading punches with the 1080 till amd mentioned it. Now it's full on damage control by retarded fanboys who believe anything their company tells them. It's become the main selling point of the 480, that is until the real benchmarks come out and prove that it won't be as powerful as a 1080 in xfire.
>>340490647
>AMD CF'd 2 480s
No, they used the multi GPU support native to dx12, which is better than crossfire. Crossfire performance with two 480's will be a bit under what they showed.
>>340490732
i dont think it's the main selling point.
gtx 1080 = 1440p or 144hz card
rx 480 = the perfect 1080p 60fps card
they're two different things. if u want 1080p 60fps then get 480 otherwise ur just wasting ur money.
I got the 390, so I don't think so.
I'm really looking at an intel CPU though. Fuck this 8350. Zen is taking too long to come out.
>>340490869
the 1080 and 1070 is also 1080p60fps for the next 5 years or so.
>>340490869
>getting AMD
>not wasting money
>>340488740
>>340488771
Eh I go back and forth between AMD and nVidia every generation or so. Right now I'm still sporting my SLI 980's, which are working fine for me.
I'd say I've had an equal amount of problems from both companies, but lately I've found myself using AMD GPU's more so than nVidia. They have REALLY started getting their shit together over the last few years. I remember the plethora of bazaar driver issues I had with my 5850 and their frame pacing issues that were prevalent in their 7xxx series is pretty much a non-issue now.
>>340489239
EVGA's lower end stuff, I'm not sure, but their Super Nova series are rebranded Super Flower's. Gay name, but they're A+ PSU's.
>buying a new graphics card with this shitty generation of games
Unless I can play fucking Overwatch in 4K on ultra settings I don't need that shit right now my R9 390 works just fine.
I'm excited for the rx 480 because *hopefully* it'll force Nvidia to price the 1060/ti and 1050 more attractively. But I'm in the market for a card a tier above the 480 so I'll get a 1070.
>>340491004
anon, if you're buying those cards for 1080p 60fps then ur wasting ur money. there's never going to be a time when those cards are appropriate for such resolution and framerate.
>>340491208
ain't no reliable 4k cards
>>340491293
but my current cards aren't doing 1080p60fps so why not just overbuy and be set for the next 5 years? My next upgrade will probably be a monitor anyhow.
>>340491316
Haven't there already been benchmarks showing the 1080 getting 60 FPS at 4K in Doom?
>>340491293
>ur
Dumb phone poster.
>>340491636
Fairly sure there is no card that gets any game at 60fps on 4k.
>>340491790
An overclocked 1080 gets pretty damn close to a locked 60 fps at 4k.
>>340491790
Found the video.
>https://youtu.be/22ePLtROm6I?t=9m18s
>>340491790
1080 will do less demanding games, but yeah we're still a generation or two off.
>>340491636
If you overclock it. So the cards with better cooling definitely should.
>>340492065
jesus. That's impressive, though probably because of the Vulkan thing, right? I'm assuming most other games will not be ablt to crank out performance like that.
>>340491790
>Not playing Jedi Academy at 8k 500fps
>>340492173
That's gross, no one wants that.
Just wait a few more years for stable 4k
>>340492173
that basically means it can just barely do unstable 4k for current games. Until we can get >60fps we shouldn't invest in 4k.
Will Dual GPUs ever not be shitty?
>>340492409
There's not much use for them anymore.
But that new dual-gpu gimmick looks promising.
>>340488324
>it hasn't been gimped
>posts video showing how Nvidia hasn't updated it's performance at all in the last two years, and have basically ignored it
Wait, did people actually think they were making the cards perform worse? It's still an absolute outrage that they stopped supporting a flagship card so soon after release.
>>340492409
Nope. Only really deluded people that watch adored tv will say otherwise. Most people with a brain will tell you it is destined to always be worse than a single gpu.
>>340492367
Or you can just turn some settings down to get 60fps+. A lot of settings are barely noticeable and cost a lot in performance. Like the pixel density is good enough at 4k that you might not even need anti aliasing.
>>340492409
there's just not really demand for them anymore and they seem to fuck up in all sorts of games.
>>340492519
I can't think of a single game at 4k that needs AA.
>>340492519
But at that point why game at 4k? You could just run max settings at 1440p and it'd look better than 4k.
>>340479129
>>340482080
Why the card has weeb shit all over it?
>>340492654
The better question is why don't more GPUs have anime girls on them?
>>340492654
>normie makes a dumb comment
how surprising.
>>340492635
Ehhhhh depends on the game.
TW3 at 4k is fucking gorgeous
>>340491790
>any game
Come on now, Quake IS getting pretty old you know.
lol no
this card is still in that awkward phase between 1080p and 4k. It would be a waste of money to upgrade unless you're already struggling running 1080p/60fps
it's obvious that 4k will be the next standard so why are we kidding ourselves by testing performance on games at 1200p or 1440p resolution??
>>340491401
>but my current cards aren't doing 1080p60fps so why not just overbuy and be set for the next 5 years?
Or you can spend less and buy cards more often. This will perform better at that resolution.
>>340492895
or I could just buy one flagship card and hold onto it for 5 years.
is it worth buying a plat psu over a bronze one if i'm going to be a huge electricity waster and leave my pc on 24/7
I've got a 380 so this will be a good upgrade for $230. I honestly don't see myself ever spending over $300 for a gpu.
>>340492886
1440p is still an improvement over 1080p, and untill we get to 4k, which will still take some years, we'll inevitably go through being reliable at 1440p.
>>340492886
i dont think the 480 is in an awkward place. it's the perfect card for 1080p 60fps at $200. it's not meant to be an upgrade, it's meant to get new gamers into top of the line 1080p graphics settings for cheap, without sacrificing any performance.
the gtx 1080 is the on in an awkward place. it's maybe a bit too powerful for 1440p but still not strong enough for 4k.
>>340492886
4k won't be the next standard for at least 5 years.
>>340493332
But when will the gold standard for PC Mustard Race become 1440p/60s instead of 1080p/60fps?
>>340492514
Kepler still gets driver optimizations for every new game release. The fact that it doesn't gain any performance in older games is due to the kepler cards already being at near 100% efficiency via driver updates when those older games came out. The only reason people talk about it is because amd have inferior driver optimizations compared to nvidia so when a game comes out, the nvidia card will be at near 100% efficiency compared to the amd card which will be running with a worse level of efficiency and amd slowly over time release driver updates to make their cards more efficient. There's a reason why dx12 makes amd gain much more performance compared to dx11. It's because in dx12 the amd cards are running at a much, much higher level of efficency than in dx11.
Not being a fanboy or anything. It's the truth. Amd doesn't have the budget to release drivers on the scale nvidia does.
>>340493381
But games become more demanding over time. I'd say the 1080 will be a bit overkill for 1440p now, but in a few years it'll be just right for 1440p.
>>340493007
but that's inferior to what I suggested. Flagship cards aren't supported very long, so unless you're playing at resolutions that require them, you're wasting money essentially. It makes more sense to spend the same amount of money but buy mid range cards more frequently.
>>340493409
>>340493332
if an EVGA 1080 card can do 4k/60fps on doom, we are literally one generation before its the standard.
>>340493505
that will never be the gold standard. 1440p is a meme resolution.

Most likely. People will enventually realize there's a middle ground between 1080p and 2160p. Just in time for GPUs to reliably maintain 60fps at that res.
OR, even thought I think it's less likely, the new standard will become 1080p120Hz.

Except new games won't just stop at today's resource usage despite being mostly console games. D44m is pretty optimized too, apparently.
>>340493656
>But look at this one game that is exceptionally well optimized
>>340493539
>Kepler still gets driver optimizations for every new game release.
This is blatantly false.
>>340493563
>But games become more demanding over time.
we're pretty stagnant at the moment. ps4 and xbox one are really weak and will continue to be a bottleneck for the next 6 years until ps5 and xbox two.
the ps4 neo and xbox scorpion won't change much. every game is still going to be built from the ground up on the original ps4 and original xbox one. maybe in 3 years you won't be able to run NVIDIA's latest gimpy hair works or some other such gimmick but do we really consider poorly optimized tech experiments as important?

Yes, without any issue at all. See nvidia Laptops using "gsync". They don't actually use "gsync" but freesync instead.
The only reason you can't pair a desktop Nvidia GPU with a freesynch monitor is because Nvidia wants to keep cucking you.
>tfw really want a 1070

five years is absurd. 4k/60fps is happening now anons. get your head out of the clouds.
>>340483038
They will not be Crossfire compatible. You can buy a cheap 390 or 390x when they drop in price for your 390 though. Even a 290/290x will work too, but idk what happens with the different memory capacities. Probably only 4GB will be available, so the extra 4GB of your 390 will be wasted.
>>340493836
PS4k and Xbone1.5 are strongly being hinted at. Besides, the next console gen isn't gonna be as long as the last one.
>>340493836
The PC still has plenty of exclusive games that aren't held back by consoles.
>>340493890
>G sync
>$500
In what universe?
>>340493909
Alright, throw me a couple more benchmarks showing the 1080 hits 60fps at 4k on very recent AAA releases and I'll believe you.
>>340493860
whats the issue here? You see that drivers aren't doing jack shit for kepler right? In new games, old games, doesn't matter. Do you remember TW3 at launch? The community had to throw a temper tantrum to get Nvidia to actually optimize kepler. I feel like im taking crazy pills here.
>>340493867
The 980ti has 88% the performance of a 1080, and runs hotter and consumes more power to boot.
>>340492654
I know, right?
Nvidia knows how to do it.
>>340493867
15FPS at 4k is not barely.
>>340479129
Might get a new card to play the new Dude Sex. Really wanted to wait for HBM2, but I don't think my R9 280 will hold up very well.
>>340488324
>>340494018
because I actually see performance differences with my card and no amount of anecdotal evidence will change that.
Hell, I had to roll back the last driver because, while it improved Overwatch performance, it kept causing GTAV to crash.
>>340492557
>>340492518
>>340492503
Depends on what monitor you're running. I bought my 980's because the 980 Ti's weren't even out at the time and I'm pushing a 144hz @ 1440p monitor. One 980 really wasn't cutting it.

It's technically not Freesync since Freesync is AMD's version of adaptative sync, but you're right, laptops use the adaptative sync function built into the DisplayPort standard, but Nvidia still forces their users to pay hundreds of dosh for their Gsync chip.

Your CPU is too weak anon. Most of the 480's power will be wasted.
>>340494172
Well do you play anything besides CSGO?
How many problems have they caused?
>>340494149
>because I actually see performance differences with my card and no amount of anecdotal evidence will change that.
Oh the irony. Ok well, how about non-anecdotal benchmarks that were posted in this thread? Kepler DS3 performance is the same regardless of driver.

that explains it
It's a shame since Dell knows how to produce good IPS monitors

jesus christ I remember when that chip was new back in 2008.
>>340494018
Kepler had a couple of bugged driver updates but was quickly fixed in a hot fix driver. It's perfectly fine now.
>>340494260
I know my anecdotal evidence means nothing to you, but it's the truth man. I obviously can't prove it, but you can't prove to me either that my 770 has been gimped as it still runs games at 60fps in 1080p.
>>340488901
Anon you so kawaii desu
Reminder the 480 is a rebadged 290x and gets BTFO by the 1070. Go green.
>>340494468
Shhhhh, don't hurt the AMDrone. Any logical reasoning will hurt his ego. Let him have his non-sensical rambling about how superior his graphics card he paid for is better than the card we paid for.

oh wow anon you showed me
>>340494596
I don't understand all the people who are so against getting a 1070 for 1080p60fps.
It's like, you realize games are gonna keep sucking up VRAM and performance, right? I just want a card that will keep me on top for a few years.
>>340494139
See >>340493539
Your picture doesn't show any evidence of "gimping", just driver improvements to the 290x. Benchmarks already show the older games the 780 ti used to beat the 290x in are still won by the 780 ti even today.
>>340494619
So why buy 2013 levels of performance? Save your allowance or lunch money and get a real card.

Holy fuck, I thought it was a condom, not a computer chip in her mouth.
Anyway I'm buying 2 rx480s instead instead of instead of one 1080. Pic related.

Ah but this is /v/ (or /g/, its hard to tell) and thus anon believes AMD has no drivers.
>>340494758
It will be good enough if you have a 1080p60Hz screen like most people.

The actual stickers for AMDchan are probably buried deep within some Japanese PC retailer
>>340488740
Price/performance is where it's at.
>>340479129
>buying AMD
top zoz
Wouldnt a sticker like that melt right off of the card?
>>340495059
No, not if you want to play on settings higher than medium. It's 2013 spec.
>>340495150
>Green top
Unacceptable.
>>340495150
Why don't they use them?
>>340495169
oh pajeet, when will he learn?
>>340494882
Aren't there problems with crossfire? I want to upgrade my R9 290x, but I don't want to go Nvidia and I have a1080p27" inch FreeSync monitor. So the choice is either crossfired 480 or wait for the 490 If it comes at all.
>>340495215
>The GTX 980 is a 2013 card
???
What graphics card do I need to complete my memerig?
I just want solid 60FPS at 1440p.
>>340494678
This guy gets it. All that "1070 is too overkill for 1080p@60" is just a retarded way of justifying rx480's poor performance.
>>340495169
>A flop
just like AMD!
>>340495215
>GTX 980
>2013 spec
>>340495330
The 1070 should do the job.
>>340495350
They said a 290x was overkill for 1080p yet I can't do 60+ in all games with a 4690k
>>340495298
And will be a better buy than the 480... That's why I said go green.
If it has that sticker yes.
>>340495031
They do have drivers but they're not as efficient as nvidia drivers and this can't be denied. Amd generally has the better hardware specs on paper (eg the fury x having 9 TF of compute power and the 980 ti 6 TF) but the card always performs worse in actual real world tests. It takes amd a much longer amount of time to get their drivers to run at the efficiency nvidia does with theirs. The amd driver overhead meme is true.
>>340495457
You don't understand. The 480 is on the same level of performance as the 980. For less money.
>>340495169
How embarrassing, just like the cheap cards they manufacture.
Is all this weeb stuff official?
>AMD releases a midrange card for poorfags
>Nvidiots are so buttmad that they're trying to compare it to the 1080/1070
O am I laffin
Why would the target audience for the RX480 want to spend $600 on a gpu? Shit makes no sense.
>>340495330
>I just want solid 60FPS at 1440p.
980
>>340495603
Pfft, nobody buys a 980 - if you don't buy the card at the top of every benchmark then clearly you aren't a gamer!
>>340495603
No, it's the same level as the 290 which is below the 980, which is more money. You think game devs aren't going to continue pandering to Nvidia?
I've been running this 6800 for too long, yeah I'll easily upgrade to that
