How do you feel about AMD's upcoming RX480?
This GPU claims to make your PC VR ready at $199, is superior to the GTX980, and supposedly 2 cards yields greater results than a 1080.
What are your thoughts?
>inb4 hurrrdurr amd
>>342051873
>synthetic benchmarks
I'll believe it when we see real world performance in the hands of consumers, not paid shills.
It doesn't support Shadowplay so I don't give a single fuck about it.
Seriously retroactive video capture is the best thing ever, I wouldn't know how to live without it anymore.
>>342051873
this will cuck the nvidia good
I've never used an AMD product before, but if the benchmarks prove to be decent, I'm willing to give it a try.
I know the prices for the founders editions of the new 1070/80 are extremely inflated, but $450+ on a GPU is ridiculous
>>342051873
I'm planning on buying one but I'm waiting for the AIB partner cards.
waiting for hbm2
I'm liking the look of this video card, but I am clueless as to what kind of MOBO/Powersupply/CPU I will need.

Any suggestions?
It's too good to be true. I'm hoping it is, but it sounds too fucking good.

I really don't think you would need anything more than 550W.

Wait for Polaris.
>>342052671
Wait 9 days for the RX 480 instead. Similar price but way better performance.
>>342051873
As with every AMD card for the last 5 years, it will promise things and make statements about performance. It will be decent for its price but substantially worse than equivalent Nvidia cards.
Also SLI is and always has been shit for gaming so "yield" means nothing.

>>342051873
hurrrdurr amd
I heard the 470 is actually pretty close to a 970
so I might get that instead of the 480, its 50 dollars cheaper and im a semi-poorfag
>>342052489
Same here man, especially after hearing how memory starved the new nvidia cards are
>>342051873
Cool card if you're behind a couple of gens.
>>342051873
Good. I'm not getting one but it should help bring up plebs to speed, considering less than 10% of Steam users have a card of 970 or above.

the only reason to get a 1070+ is if you have a 4k monitor or something
literally no game is going to not get 60fps on 1080p with a card that is basically a gtx 980
>>342052060
AMD has its own version of Shadowplay, doofus

Or if you aren't a 60hz pleb.

>>342053480
We live in this weird time period where running 1080p max settings is so easy but 4k at 30 fps is so hard.
>>342053480
i was told that to justify getting a 2GB 760 back in 2014, and it's showing it's age with 1080p gaming
that's sound advice if you can afford to get a new gpu frequently but otherwise based on my experience I'd futureproof more

>>342053874
because its half the price of a 1070 for like 35% less performance
even if I have the money, I don't feel like that is worth it. Almost 400 dollars, just think about how many games you can buy with 400 dollars
>>342053480
1080p isn't a static thing. Game tech evolves just as fast as cards do. You constantly need new cards to hold 1080p60
I might try to convince my brother to get a 470 if the price is right that way we can play games together and he can play most of the games he wants to which aren't usually as graphically intensive

I assure you people buying that card are aiming for twice that in fps, and atleast 1.5x that in resolution.
>>342054268
I have enough money to buy a gold toilet, should I buy it? No that would be a dumb decision.
So, is it worth it tweaking some graphical settings to low to be able to get good framerates at 4k? I'm interested in knowing what provides the better experience, huge resolution or better shadows or anti-aliasing and that sorta shit.

>>342054404
Depends, if you're on a 24" monitor its probably not really worth trying to run a game in 4k, and 1080p will be better for the higher framerate. If you're on a large format 40" display running in 4k if you can is preferable.

Should I upgrade my 390 to a 8g 480?
480 seems like a good deal. But Ive never dealt with AMD cards before though
should I?
>>342051873
AMD makes good cards this new gen looks pretty sweet now that they finally lowered power consumption by quite a bit.
Also their drivers have been great for a long time now.
>>342054601
It was. Raptr is basically dead as far as I can tell and is now just a halfway decent way to have recording running in the backround.
The folder is \Raptr Inc\PlaysTV but they don't really seem that alike.
It is somewhat annoyingly focused on uploading sick frags online with mlg hashtags or whatnot. though
>>342055065

>It doesn't support Shadowplay so I don't give a single fuck about it.
Literally doesn't matter unless you're a faggot that tries to make a living off of playing video games on YouTube.
>>342052060
I wish Shadowplay wasn't limited to the last 20 minutes of gameplay though. There are times I end up having an amazing game and I save the footage, but the game lasted 25 - 30 minutes and I can't save the whole thing.
>>342055303

>>342055065
Yes
>>342052060
>It doesn't support Shadowplay so I don't give a single fuck about it.
I've seen some retarded kiddy shit on /v/ but this takes the cake.
AMD is not an option
>>342054972
Probably not.
480 is looking really good, but the 390 will play anything made half way decent at the very least at 1080 with 60fps. Until games actually made for 4k really start coming out I wouldn't bother. The 390 will be a solid card for a good long time.
And if its just for VR I don't see that going well. Its neat, I've tried it out, but it is a gimmic. Fun some of the times but mostly in the way.
If you had an older card though I would say go for it.
>>342055353
Why not just manually record and leave it on?
>>342055620
Why? They've made the better mid range cards for years now. If all your stuff is bleeding edge then ya sure Nvidia normally wins out, but otherwise they have little to offer.
Exception to the 750 for a little while depending on situation, but that was awhile ago.
1080/1080ti or nothing at all
>>342055747
Because space fills up fast and it requires you to go back and delete too often.
After the RX480 comes out, how long does it usually take for ASUS and Sapphire for example to come with their own version?
>>342051873
Is this "HDR" in vidya a meme or what?

>>342053480
There's such a thing as high refresh rate monitors, anon.
I'm getting a 1080 for 1080p 144hz.
>>342051873
It's completely uninteresting to me unless it can reach GTX 1070+ results when OC'd and not just in Ashes or DX12.
I have a 4K monitor and 290X CF, I'm looking for a serious upgrade in terms of horsepower. Going AMD would be nice since the monitor supports FreeSync, but if the RX 480 isn't an absolute OC monster then it's simply too slow. CF isn't great though, I'd like to get rid of that.
It's a good sign for people wanting to get into PC gaming in that it's basically a 1080p-dominating GPU for $200, which is alright. Obviously enthusiasts will want a 1070 or 1080 instead but AMD always does better with the poorfag market so they should just nail it there and not bother with enthusiast-level cards.
Oh, and for you people wanting to get this I would suggest a Sapphire card. 6+ years with an AMD Sapphire card and it still runs great. I wish I could've stayed with AMD for my new PC but sadly the 480 just isn't powerful enough for what I want.

>>342054404
>to low
No, if you have to drop everything to low I'd say it's not worth it. If you can get good FPS at tweaked high-ish settings then I'd say yes. In lots of games going from sane, tweaked settings in the high-max range will make very little visual difference but can improve performance drastically and the huge DPI you get at 4K is very visible.
>>342056857
>tfw really want to buy a 1080 but there are absolutely none in stock
>>342051873
I am. But I doubt it is better than a 980. Maybe between 970 and 980. I am more excited what nvidia answers to this. The GTX 960 was not very good.
>>342054217
If he is green-team just convince him to get the 950 when it drops. Probably down to $100

>>342056723
Well, yes. I'm willing to spend, but AMD won't sell me a product that's fast enough, so unless their budget card is an absolute OC monster they have nothing in their lineup for me.

>>342053480
Dumb comment
>>342053725
sad story of my life
>>342056158
Its a different thing. It has to do with the type of display and a way for it to give whiter whites and darker blacks, which often get washed out in flat displays.
And HDR in photography can work, its just gets abused like B&W and Sepia as a way to cover up bad focus or shit detail. Basically a shitty crutch rather than a sometimes okay style choice. Don't use it myself though I like crisp pictures too much. Wouldn't post in /p/ if my nuts were on fire and they had a monopoly on water though, too many photographers get pretentious when the camera does half the work compared to other art forms. Not saying that about you, I do some photography myself even.
>>342055065
No. I owned one until last year and you are submitting yourself to a lifetime of fiddling with driver options for every game because they won't run right otherwise.
>>342056980

I probably won't get an FTW until July at this rate
>>342057009

>>342057187
Don't really care as long as it's not a founders edition, though obviously I'd prefer anything from evga or MSI.
>>342051873
I'll probably get one. By the time I upgrade to 1440p the same thing should happen where you can get great quality for cheap prices.

Semi-poor yet financially responsible is better than rich and a good goy desu
>>342057330
I have 290X CF. I was thinking of 1070 SLI, not just 1.
Also CF is pretty bad, I wouldn't recommend it at this point, really. It was better 1.5-2 years ago but since the DX12/Vulkan/W10 hype really started up AMD really hasn't given a fuck about how games actually run in CF.
>>342056875
You kiddies never knew of the time when all thermal compounds were electrically conductive. They were nerve wracking. That and dealing with IDE cable.
>>342056379
The truth is that NVDIA has way more man power to engineer drivers. AMD always relied on developers which took a while to fix.
>>342057562
>The truth is that NVDIA has way more man power to engineer drivers. AMD always relied on developers which took a while to fix.
This is true, but the LEL NO DRIVERS meme is still outdated. The drivers are fine.
Don't give a shit about VR, I just really need to upgrade my 6800
>>342057356
Good luck 1080bro
>>342056379
Not really if you're running CF. FreeSync is also quite glitchy.
Then there's the whole DX11 CPU performance issue, at this point it's well known that AMD's DX11 driver is shit and will CPU bottleneck when there are lots of draw calls. It can't feed the GPU(s) fast enough.
>>342051873
I'm probably going to get it because I need an upgrade. I'm still on a 270 and an X4 750k I've overclocked to hell.
>>342056517
I bought one for this and its great.
>>342057817
I haven't had any problems with FreeSync.
>>342051873
can I run this with a 390 simultaneously?
>1080 has been standard since like 2008
>nvidia only just catching on
>>342058672
why?
>>342058156
It sometimes desyncs and tearing happens, I've seen it personally on my system and on a friend's and if you have a look on forums you'll see people with the same issue. It's not really easy to spot if your monitor doesn't display the refresh rate on its OSD, but it does happen.
It also doesn't always play nice with FPS limits, as in tearing happens. I've got a 33-60Hz FS range. I don't want to use VSync because it causes noticeable input lag in certain games, so I prefer to lock the FPS to 59, so FS remains enabled. Sometimes there's microstutter and sometimes there's tearing, but all the shit I've tried is too complicated to explain here, I'm too lazy to write a huge wall of text.
As much as I would love to get a 1070, I'll probably get one of these and put any money towards a decent monitor. I just have a 750ti and a 1080p
should i upgrade? how does it compare to the Nvidia RadeonForce GTX 480m
>>342058774
You can run them in the same PC and connect monitors to both and they'll work, but you can't use them in CF or anything like that since AMD doesn't support that.
Some DX12 games may theoretically be able to use both. Currently the only game that can do it is AotS.
>>342054972
I bought a 390 last september on my first PC build. I can't justify going through the process of selling my 390 and buying 480 when I know:
1. I'll loose money on the sell and purchase seeing as I bought the card when the CAD$ was shit and paid premium for MSI model.
2. The performance of the 480 isn't significantly higher than the 390.
The whole reason I chose the 390 over the 970 was that it already has next gen specs. ie. 8GB vram and async compute. At 1080p60fps it should hold for 2016,2017 and onto Navi/Volta.

/v/ i have a question long time ago my computer restarts randomly even while just watching youtube videos, GPU (390) never heats more than 70 during stress, CPU FX-6300 barely reachs 30 during stress, i checked my RAM and it's also fine, i updated the bios and it still happens, there is a chance that it's the Motherboard? because something i noted is that now my Motherboard recognized 2 keyboards and two mice, also my mic was working like ass when i connected it to the Motherboard instead of using the frontal panel from the cabinet.

The general rule of thumb is to buy a GPU that's 3x as strong as your current GPU if you wish to upgrade.
Since I'm currently rocking a 280x, the only GPU that performs 3x as well is the 1080.
May just wait for Vega in 2017 to upgrade if AMD can really wow me.
If not, I'll probably just get a 1070 and OC the fuck out of it.

>>342053725
How is that weird? 4k is running 4 1080p monitors at max settings.
It will be my next card probably.
i'm rolling with an r9 280x since 2013.
its serving me well.
I'm hopeful - hell, I'd take it even if it was just above the 1070 - I won't gain much owning an Nvidia card since Hairworks and PhysX is a meme and I don't even use Shadowplay even though I own a 770.
Still, I was disappointed by the Fury X and refuse to buy anything less powerful than a 1070.
>>342055065
Unless you are on Linux, it's all memes.
>>342062706
Yeah, until it actually launches (this week I think?) and I see Anandtech's reviews I absolutely refuse to get hyped at all. AMD has a long history of either disappointing outright, or meeting the letter of the promise but failing in some key aspect. Like, having good performance, but some awful noise problem, or some other edge issue. They've also got a very bad history when it comes to drivers and software support.
If they can pull it off then awesome, I'm certainly not getting anything until I see what they've got to offer. In that way I have given them the benefit of the doubt, if I totally looked down on them I would have pulled the trigger on the a 1070 already.
But I sure as fuck ain't preordering or hyping them up ahead of time either.
>>342063089
I mean $1200 for 1080 SLI, at the currently fictional MSRP of $600. I'm not going to buy 1 card for $1200, that's insane. I'm going to wait for solid availability on custom models anyway, I don't want NVIDIA's overpriced reference cards. I already have a nice 4K IPS monitor, which is why I want all the horsepower.

AMD was VR ready back during the R9 390 and the performance will just get better with time as people take advantage of over 4gb on DX11 and 12. The 470 and 480 are rebranded and slightly overclocked 390s without the extra ram.

>The 470 and 480 are rebranded and slightly overclocked 390s

>>342063561
>>342063597
'VR ready' is literally a meme. Being able to hold 90 fps @ 2160 x 1200 depends a whole lot more on the developer than the hardware. What used to hold 1080p60 years ago can't hold 1080p60 in modern games.
>>342063720
It'll probably perform about what the early benchmarks are showing, but the twist will be that no one will sell it for 200 bucks. All the board partners are pissed off because 200 bucks leaves fuck all profit margins for them.
XFX already announced theirs will be 250. Wouldn't be surprised to see some that cost 300.
>>342063870
Take a look at the benchmark a 5 fps spread over from the course of last generation and this generation. You're paying these companies for minor increments at this point that call them 20% improvements. Stop being retarded.
>>342064119
It shouldn't be expected to be lower then their previous generations at the high end. If they are marketing the 480 as the take over point. The 390 was around $300 mark I would expect the 480 to be around the $350. The only way they would sell it for $200 would be in house "founders" which we all saw how those work out in the past and especially now with the 1080 from nvidia.
>>342064104
Yeah, there's still developers coming out with UE3 based games that run amazing. Developer competency gets better the hardware will last longer. The problem with a lot of people having to jump upgrades is they don't realize a lot of these video game companies hire bloat that can't do their job to save their life leading to even the best shit running like crap. As a generation of developers gets betters the older cards start to shine, but more and more people are dumping their cards before the developer catches up now.

If you want something cheap, the EVGA 500B is ok. Something like the Superflower HX would be a higher-quality option.
>>342066840
I meant graphics card upgrade, don't really wanna get a new PSU. although I've seen a lot of playas hating on my corsair cx500 cos it's apparently shit, but it's worked fine for me so far
>>342062269
I had a 280x, but I sold it for almost 200. Buying a 470 to keep my room cooler and get a significantly more advanced version of GCN
>>342067457
The v2 and v3 CX are fine on the paper, but I've heard about some unspecified models blowing up systems on Leddit, at least.
If you want an upgrade from the 660, I wouldn't settle for anything below 390/970-level - so waiting for Polaris 10 (470 or 480) wouldn't be a bad idea.
Nvidia also has a 1060 very likely coming within the next couple of months, if you're one of these brand faggots.
>>342051873
Got hyped for the 1070, but then realized that I'm not ready to upgrade my 1080p monitor so everything Nvidia has right now is total overkill. I can't tell if they're fucking up by not having a cheap 1080p do-it-all card to compete with the RX480, or if they're smart to focus on the higher end stuff and concede 1080p60hz to AMD. 4k and 2k are still too expensive on top of a new graphics card, especially if you want to get dual, high quality monitors like I eventually want to get.
>>342068454
Considering over 90% of people own 1080p monitors it's pretty fucking stupid.
I'm going to be upgrading this fall from a 560ti. It's served me so well. But I'm only gaming at 1080p so fuck spending any more than 350 bucks.
>look for release date
>all the sites on the front page are christian news sites

Okay then.
>>342068970
I wouldn't even give AMD a second glance if Nvidia had an equal card, even if it was $50 more
>>342069430
That's because you are a retard who falls for viral marketing and assume AMD is this terrible quality because you don't have to pay ridiculous amounts for less with them.
>>342068970
I mean they already own the majority of that market, why the fuck would they care?
Not many people are going to sidegrade to a fucking 480, some people won't even touch AMD cause they associate Nvidia with better products.
>>342069293
>Talking about newly released line of gaming GPUs
>It's not my favorite brand, must be shilling!
>>342069508
I wouldn't touch AMD either. Why would I buy a brand new, untested card from an underdog manufacturer with inferior software?
Buying AMD is literally a gamble at this point in time.
>b-but I'm saving 50-100 bucks!
Fuck that. The possible headaches are just not worth it.
>>342069930
>Not many people are going to sidegrade to a fucking 480
I know this might destroy your world view, but there's a lot of people who won't pay 400$ for a GPU, even if retards like you spout it as often as possible.

Kick the shit out of it, but isn't that a laptop gpu?
Daily reminder it took Nvidia until 2004 to make a GPU faster than the ATi Radeon 9700 (released in 2002). Two years.

>not sure whether to get a 480x for 1440p/100hz and wait on vega/volta or get a 1070 now
>>342074401
looks ok, I'd recommend getting a cheaper GPU and save your money for an upgrade later when 4k60 becomes more mainstream.
This depends on your monitor of course.
If your going for 1440p120 I'd say you built it good, if you're gaming at 1080p, you're spending too much
>>342064119
Yeah, same thing happening with nvidia so youre probably right. Lows pricey generate hype, then board partners and retailers say fuck that. They don't want the gravy train to end, they've gotten so accustomed to screwing us with no gains or price drops.

The memes have poisoned your mind, child.
4K or a curved 3440x1440 monitor?
i probably get more fps going for 3440 plus it being wide is nice but i dunno
I was building a new pc and they announced this before I pulled the plug and my friends gpu just died after 3 years. 2 480's prease, ty poo in the gpu
>>342051873
I feel like I'm going to buy one, I've been on integrated graphics for a year now since my last PC died and I didn't have the money or energy to build a new one with a GPU so maybe now I'll get to play games made this decade.
AMD-chan is kawaii!
>>342056517
why do so many retards buy monitors in refresh rates literally no game on the planet uses?
OH BOY, CAN'T WAIT FOR MY 900000HZ MONITOR TO GET HERE SO I CAN PLAY MY LOCKED 60FPS GAMES. I MADE A SMART PURCHASE!

I don't mind waiting on my GTX 770 a little longer. That sweet sweet 200%+ upgrade to a HBM memory card will be worth it. A wise decision since my countries dollar is in the toilet right now and the jews are charging essentially 550 USD for a fucking GTX 1070, fuck off.
>>342075681
Only thing is I have to wait 2-3 weeks for release and delivery and all the diagnostics/analysis from everyone online. No pc for like a month
Running an R9 290 over here, just bought it last year and might upgrade to a 1070 already by the end of the year.
What are the odds that I'll actually be able to buy them for $370 by then?
>>342075818
>every game is locked to 60hz

>>342075695
So there's actually an AMD-tan?
>>342076195
give me your huge list of games not locked at 30 or 60.
>>342076315
Her name is Amada Kokoro. Its a Japanese retail thing, not officially endorsed by AMD, but they're cool with it.
>>342076315
I don't know if she's official but she's been spotted promoting them.
>>342076394
there doesn't need to be a huge list, anon. a lot of the games that people care most about playing all the time, like dota or cs or tf2 are unlocked
>>342076595
>like dota or cs or tf2 are unlocked

>>342070650
AMD has the consoles, retard
>>342051873
AMD claimed it's a 1080p gaming card which would match first benches were a stock 480 was a little behind stock 980. Then a fake Korean shoop came out where some shitposter inserted 480 in place of titan x and Indian brethren from wccftech went full retard mode with "gossips" of oced 480 being able to compete with 1080 gtx in dx12. Now I don't know if /g/ is filled with morons or shitposters but the latest stage of denial makes them think that ocing card by 500mhz will give them 120% performance boost. Imo 480 could be as good as 980 gtx with proper driver support. Dx12 is nowhere near being a standard and unless Windows 10 becomes good it will stay this way.
>>342053480
Posts like this one is why no one takes AMD experts seriously. It takes 5 minutes to check that even 1080 shits itself in 4k gaming on any better looking AAA game.
The question is, 4K Ultra 60 fps when? I don't think even the 1080 will deliver on that front.
>>342051873
I have a 5850, i think i may finally upgrade.
>>342077242
>4K Ultra 60 fps when?
Think about how long it took for 1080p to become the standard, and double it. You need insane amounts of power for that shit.
>>342052060
>It doesn't support Shadowplay
This is more nvidia's fault than AMD's
Plus there are other alternatives. Even W10 has a built-in shadowplay type thing, if you were dumb enough to upgrade.
>>342077380
>Think about how long it took for 1080p to become the standard
It hasn't even happened yet, seeing as how most video game systems still run at 720p
>>342077242
1080 in SLI delivers and maxes out W3 at 60fps/4k including hairworks. I dream of a 1080/3440x1440 rig but IMO it's not worth it with all those downgrades.
Why is VR supposedly so demanding for GPUs? Shit's not even impressive to look at
>>342077380
How long did it take for 1080p to become the standard anyway?
>>342077803
Because it has to render from 2 points of view, and do it at 90fps instead of 60.
It's roughly equivalent in GPU cost as running a game on a standard monitor in 4k at 45-50fps.
>>342077803
It's because it renders two pictures for left and right eye so playing vr in 1080p is equivalent to playing in 1440p on a single monitor.
Cost us AUS fags like 1200 AUD for a 1080 so idk how much kangaroo cores per dollar ima get with upcoming ad. 970 fag atm
PotatoFag Here, I will wait for the benchmarks and decide wether this or gtx 1070/60
>Intel 4600 4 lyf
>>342077739
PS4 is 1080p, Xbox is 900p-1080p, and I don't know about Wii. It's as good of a standard as any, it's what everyone wants to achieve and what many do.
>>342077810
I remember 1080i being a big deal in 2006 so probably between eight to ten years. Now imagine a computer that costs $800 to build today and can run everything at Ultra 1080/60. You'd need the equivalent of 4 of whatever GPU that is to just get playable 4k, not Ultra, and not 60fps. It's going to take a while before that becomes the standard, because you have to remember resolutions are not all about gaming. There are still people who think 720p and 1080p are the same thing because an icon on the box their TV came in says "HD".
>>342078030
>playing vr in 1080p
>>342078021 that reminds me, it's not just 90fps, but it's also uses downsampling. It's rendering at 1512x1680twice
That's 457 million pixels/sec, but according to Valve, can be reduced to 378 million, which is about on par with playing on a 30 inch monitor (2560x1600) at 100fps.
>>342051873
I'm pretty hype. I haven't bought a new gpu in forever.
>tfw trying to play ds3 on gtx 660ti with everything set to low/off
