AMD has only around 20-30% of the market (more if you count consoles).

This puts them in a horrible position when developers are considering optimization. Why spend more time optimizing for hardware that less people have?

Of course this puts them in a catch-22 where they can't get more market-share without first getting more market-share. The RX 480 might be the card that changes that, but people have been saying that about AMD cards for years.

>>342835101
To be honest mate the internet highly over exaggerates the gpu wars to an insane degree; If you stop paying attention you can pretty much ignore it and just play whatever game you want. I let it frustrate me while looking for a new card last year then I kinda just stopped caring. Just at a surface level find whatever card you need and best fits your usecase whenver you need to upgrade and proceed to ignore it anyother time.
Sorry for rambling, pretty much just saying it's not as bad as the internet might lead you to believe (same with console wars).

I don't know if I will buy a 470 or 480, knowing my country the 480 will go around 450-500 so it's fucking expensive.

Going by specs alone the 470 is at least equal to the 970, except that it doesn't have meme 3.5 memory.

But the 390 is already much better than the 970 nowadays and the 390 has much worse specs than the 470 so It's safe so assume that this will be too.

People have said it runs cool with the reference cooler. It only uses around 110 watts on average. It's not like the days of the 6970 or something

That said, if you want to overclock, you may want to wait for the custom boards. It's looking like the single 6-pin is limiting OC headroom to under 1400mhz.

Performance is always a relative thing, now anyone can afford a really cheap card with good performance and modern features, so no excuses to buy a console anymore. If you want more performance you can always get a more expensive card or wait for Vega

Because the 390x uses a fuckton of power. This will have similar performance for a lower price and half the wattage.

Wait for the 490 or new Rage cards if you want more performance.

"Optimization" involves using frameworks and SDKs provided directly by nvidia that offer better performance - and consequently, encourage a way of development that incurs worse performance on amd cards.

The fact of the matter is that nvidia pays good money (and offers solid support) so developers are inclined to take them up on this.

That's irrelevant, but it can be any other card with 8GB VRAM (that is 390 or x). I don't really trust GGPC to begin with, but this guy is not even using his video to prove a point. If he's not willing to use the leaked video he could limit the clock speeds on 390/x or use even worse CPU.

because at the 1370 Mhz they've managed to get it too, the card is drawing like 147 Watts from the PCIE slot and 6 pin connector.
