I didn't think AMD would get meme card status this year but I guess they did
And keep in mind, this is with launch drivers, non DX12 games (something this gen of AMD cards excell with) and the 2 games it sucked at were of course gimpworks games (pure coincidence tho rite?)

Review copies have power consumption issue right now. This limits OC stability.
It could be just limited to review copies or the retail cards might be suffering from this too. We'll need to wait for more clarification on this issue.
Isn't it funny that AMD releases these miraculous benchmarks before release but as soon as the cards reach public hands they perform know where near what the benchmark got.
Face it.

AMD at least updates their shit for old cards
900 series owners should start getting nervous desu senpai
I find it hilarious that AMD and Nvidia fans are both seeing this news as to their advantage.
I will always buy Nvidia™ because I only play games The Way It's Meant to be Played™.
Nvidia™ also pioneers innovative new technologies like PhysX™, Gameworks™ and the highest quality driver to ever grace Windows. When I boot up with a brand new Nvidia™ Geforce™, I can experience the game just like it's meant to be played.
Nvidia™ also delivers a far more silkysmooth experience. Nvidia™ Geforce™ is also very power efficient. A graphic card is the most power hungry device in your house. Refrigerators, air conditioners, water heaters, dish washers, lights, etc all use significantly less power than a graphic card. Which is why Nvidia™ puts gamers first by ensuring that their gaming experience is of the highest quality while looking out for gamers by giving them the most value in their electrical bill.
At this point in time, there's really no reasons to consider an AMD graphic card at all. I tried one one time, it caused so much heat that it exploded. It also consumed so much power that it gave out an EMP and destroyed the rest of my computer.
Nvidia™ also pioneered how useless GPGPU is with CUDA™. Years ago, everyone thought GPGPU, CUDA™, and OpenCL were the future. Now, Nvidia™ has removed those useless features from their GPUs and increased efficiency. Now you can save thousands a year in electricity thanks to Nvidia™ ensuring that useless features like GPGPU are "optimized" for gamers.
It's quite clear that everyone here is an AMD shill trying to convince you to settle on something less than The Way It's Mean to be Played™. Nvidia™ is the only real way to play games. We have seen recently that they offer incredible libraries for software developers like Nvidia™ Gameworks™.
Everyone is probably too poor to afford the Nvidia™ Geforce Experience™ and can not afford to play any games The Way It's Mean To be Played™. Don't be a poor gamer with bad drivers and a huge power bill.

midhigh is always the best to buy.
It can always max out games, and when they get outdated enough you have used it for a couple years.
I will never understand buying top of the line, when the next year something better will come out for half the price.
Although I imagine only rich people buy shit like the Titan X.
I will always buy Radeon™ because Gaming (has) Evolved™. AMD are also pioneers of innovative new technologies like GPUOpen™, Mantle™ and the highest quality driver to ever grace GNU/Linux. When I boot up with a brand new AMD™ Radeon™, I can experience the game just like gaming has evoled. AMD™ also delivers a far more silkysmooth experience. AMD Radeon™ is also cost efficient.

Wow, congrats. You've got a card that goes toe-to-toe with a gimped 3.5GB card from three years ago, and performs worse than AMD cards from the last gen, while running so hot even Fermi owners are laughing at you. Honestly amazed anyone could be proud of that.

If they can save up $200 in a few months there's nothing stopping them from saving up even longer for an $800 card
>>343233320
>>nvidia will never have a real adversary again
the 290 or whatever it was called was better than the gtx 770
the 390 was better than the 970
idk why you memers don't think the 490 won't be better than the 1070 as well
also, a lot of the rx 480 benchmarks are of the stock reference 480 vs AIB overclocked 970s and overclocked 390s. we're gonna see factory overclocked 480s within the next month that add more than a 6pin connector so we could see a noteworthy performance bump that might put the 480 on top.

I can't believe people still support AMD.
>>343232390
Literally this. I maxed out games with a fucking HD 6850 at 60 fps for 4 years.
The 390 is outperforming the 480 because of drivers. They've been optimizing the 290/390 for what? 3 years now? I'm sure the 480 will beat the 390 by 10-15% down the line.
Can't wait to see the 490 that leaked today.

What's the difference between the 4gb and 8gb RX 480?
I think this is the most interesting benchmark I've seen. The 480 performing above the 980 and just a few fps shy of the 1070 a significantly more expensive card.
>>343234102
I'd need to get a new CPU to be able to run it. It'll probably bottleneck a 480 anyway. I'd have to build a while new PC and I need to be paying my parents mortgage for them because my dad is an idiot
>>343234961
one has more memory
thats it
theres some stuff about the 4gb having a bit slower memory, but you can just OC it and have the same performance
>>343235452
I know but what good does it do to have more vram?
>>343234961
you can run all the dank 4K-8K res. textures of skyrim modding with an 8GB !
>>343234961
8g going to be new standard I think.
1070 and 1080 have 8g
>>343235123
Zen CPUs are still supposedly arriving later this year, and they could do to Intel what AMD is doing to Nvidia here that is about as fast as their competitor when it comes to legacy stuff, but much faster when it comes to new stuff.
Plus the new socket AM4 motherboards should be cheap like the socket AM1 boards were since the chips are all SOCs requring little in the way of other components. 4 core Zen CPU + Motherboard for $150 might be possible.
>>343235572
Considering most games are approaching 4GB of VRAM minimum and that many upcoming games are hitting 6-7GB of VRAM usage, anyone who buys a 4GB card is fucking stupid.
Even at 1080p. 8GB of VRAM for 1440/4K has been the norm for a while now.
>>343235619
This. I can't see anyone buying below 6GB and not regretting it a year or two down the line.
>>343235849
>Considering most games are approaching 4GB of VRAM minimum
I haven't known a single game to do this yet.

Oh wow, really? I'd never have guessed.
What version 480 would be good for a babby's first midrange computer? I really don't think I need an 8gb.
Sapphires any good?
>>343235849
1060 rumors are supposed to be 3g and 6g.
I really wanted a 1060, but not I might just have to get a 1070, because I fear developers are going to want 8vram on everything because all newer cards will have it.
Feel like it will fuck the 1060 right when the 1100 series comes.
At least the 1070 and 1080 should be good for awhile.

>>343234961

>>343236017
>yet.
Key word.
These new cards are going to change PC games.
PC games are going to become even more shit on older cards.
Late next year is going to suck for 900 series and older.
>>343236229
But those games are shit and infamously unoptimized.
>>343236167
Not only that, but PSNeo and Xbox Scorpio are using 480/1070-eqivalents so I'd imagine the consoles will have tons of VRAM as well
>>343232775
>>343236361
The Division ran on a $200 AMD card perfectly. It tanked on a $300 Nvidia card.
>>343236331
This. Unless you're on a 980ti or a 390, I can't see people being happy with their hardware config
>>343236152
Even for Nvidia cards Vulkan represents an increase in performance, and the sooner everyone is off DirectX the sooner we can forget that Windows 10 exists.
>>343231604
Why get a 980ti instead of a 1070?
Actually what's the RAM difference there, pricewise they'd be the same, if not more for the 980, but doesn't it have like 6 or 8 GB of vRAM?
>>343232390

DOOM ran great but that seemed to have been an exception and not a rule for me.

Not for amd anyways, The 390 should age well
>>343236379
PSNeo is supposed to be 8GB too, I doubt Scorpio would surpass that either since both Microsoft and Sony want to keep compatibility with the "old" consoles
>>343233991
>no reply
>DELETE THIS!!!!!
>>343227675
I'm loving this shitposting.
The card is still only 200 dollars and has a pretty fucking good amount of performance per dollar.
It wasn't made to beat cards in the 300 dollar or more range, the fact that it can even compete with them though is admirable.
>>343236379
They'll be using an AMD supplied SOC, so they won't be 480/1070 equivalent, they'll be CPU limited, and they almost certainly will use a shared memory pool like the current consoles. Try to compare that set up to discrete graphics cards in a PC is always going to fall short regardless of the marketing numbers Microsoft is throwing around.
>>343236687
The Scorpio will definitely be faster than Neo but I don't think it'll have a higher amount of VRAM, that is just asking for trouble.

$0.03 has been transferred to your checking account. Thank you for your continued business with Nvidia.
Fuck this. I'm waiting for EVGA to start churning out some 1070s or for 980s to drop in price.
I have no problem with AMD processors, but this is just incompetent. I wish there were a third party GPU company

>>343237194

that's less that what i get nigger, where' s the $0.02? fuck you
>>343236980
Depends what you have now, what you want to play, and what the rest of your hardware is like. All too often I see people posting specs of their machine and they've got a $300+ i7, a $400+ GPU, and some shitty little 24" 1080@60hz monitor that they could max out with a system 1/3rd the cost.
>>343237315
That's the thing, will 490 be a $300-$350 tier card or will they just go all out with a $500-600 card under the Vega architecture?
>>343237210
But I didn't say the 480 was bad. I quite clearly said that it was impressive for it's price point.
>>343236992
Welcome to Nvidia. After your card is a year old, all support is cut. I'm maxxing it with my HD 7950, which came out and the same time AND was cheaper.

As a person that just bought a 1070, saying "hahahaha" just makes you sound retarded.

Nvidia fans are easily the dumbest fanbase in gaming. They ignore straight up asshole moves they make on their own customers, pay almost double for the same performance, and then get their cards gimped after they're a year old while AMDfags get 5 years of support.
>>343234985
Damn, look at the 780 Ti go.
>>343237548
Lmao it's called a 1080 cuz when you see one you do a 1080 and walk out the door
>this shitty meme card race just means devs will have even less incentive to optimize their games
>>343237380
Well right now I'm running AMD A10-5800k and a Radeon HD 7700 with 8gb vram, haven't had trouble with games up until the last year and a half. Basically as soon as Witcher 3 came out, just really jew with my money. Every time I see one of these threads I go back to tweaking my future build. Also, I'm running one of those 24 60hz monitors. Not really in a rush to upgrade the monitor, but I do split screen with my 40" 1080@60hz tv which I do game on sometimes.
>>343237657
How much do AMD pay you guys to shit-post on /v/
Since denuvo killed most peoples interest in AAA games a lot of desire to buy high-mid end cards vanished. Makes 480 all the more desireable.
>>343237347
Sorry that was my fault. I misread those posts
>>343237752
>They ignore straight up asshole moves they make on their own customers, pay almost double for the same performance, and then get their cards gimped after they're a year old
You literally just described AMD.
>It's okay when AMD does it
>>343237776
The bottom line is I feel like I'll never upgrade because I can never make a solid decision on cpu/gpu. If I stick with AMD I don't think I'll have to upgrade my motherboard which will save me a little bit, but eh.
>>343237769
DX12 puts all the burden of optimization on the developers
So if a game has shit SLI/Crossfire for example, its the devs fault

I don't understand the hardware loyalty that Nvidia fans have. The precedent that budget cards should be dogshit and that good graphics should be expensive shouldn't be applauded and it's great that AMD has done something here.
>>343237447
Absolutely not. Unless they want to do something they've never done before. The $500+ card is gonna be the 490x. The 490 is gonna be about $350 like it always. The "x" is basically the same as Nvidia's "Ti"
>MUH $200 CARD THAT CAN BEAT A 980 AND OC TO A 980ti

Give me some examples. My 6850, which is from 2010 has a new driver for me to download right now. What asshole moves have they made?
>>343237930
Actually you probably will. Depending on what motherboard you have you'll have some cheap upgrade options in the form of the Athlon X4 chips, but any of the new Zen chips will be using a new motherboard. The good news is that those boards should be cheap since Zen parts are basically systems-on-chip meaning that the board doesn't need to include a lot of expensive additional components.
>>343238318
So Doom 3, a game that's been out since 2003 and Tomb Raider (a humble bundle game twice over, plus $3.99 sales) is doing better than Doom and Rise of the Tomb Raider which are less than a year old and sell for $35-$60? I am truly shocked.

AMD may be abandoning the 'x' marker for higher end parts with this line since all the cards are now 'RX'
>>343238367
Yeah nice facts mate. But everyday on here and /g/ there were threads about this thing matching the 980 and possibly going further
>>343238554
Nvidia just did that a few months ago senpai
>>343238636
But it's only okay when AMD does it.
>>343238503
They were forced to make a demo of D44M.
>>343237564
>I expect a card that's half the price of mine and released in the same time window to go toe to toe with it!
Don't worry. I'll be laughing at you again when the 490 comes out and beats the 1070 while you try to wipe the tears off your face long enough to find one Gameworks game that your card get 2 more FPS in and cling to it.
>>343238503
Important to note that Doom 3 and Tomb Raider are multiplatform, while new 'Doom' and Rise are Windows-only. That's going to cost them significant numbers of people who are willing and able to spend money on games.
>>343238753
That had more to do with the beta/pre-release footage being slow as shit.
Whats the fps on 1600x900?
>>343238625
/g/ is full of fucking retards then and ignored everything that AMD said.
I never understood why people take reference benchmarks seriously.
Non-reference are the real deciders.
>>343238172
Except we literally JUST demonstrated that to be true. Did you not look at the OP image or have you managed to gaslight yourself?
>$200 VR-ready mid-tier GPU beating the 970 and even the 980 in a few games

niggers this isn't even their flagship card for this gpu generation
the only way nvidia could compete with what they've likely got in store is through a potential 1080 Ti
>>343238912

No its not
where do you think the AMD has bad drivers meme comes from
>>343238505

>>343238201
Theyll blame it on something else and fanboys will defend them
>>343238391
It is sort of rough on Linux for owners of 6000 series cards since most of them didn't really have the hardware to support OpenGL 4.x requiring driver hacks in the old shitty code to accomplish it and AMD has recently dumped that code in favor of a new nicer codebase which is GCN-only.
Still if you run Linux there's now basically no reason to not buy a GCN card since the open drivers can be some of the highest performing drivers on any platform.
>>343239127

Well all the AMDrones defended it, and still do.

What world do you live in where Crimson is bad? I have a 980 and I wish I could get an Nvidia card with Crimson until AMD gets a 1080 competitor.

My GTX760 has gotten old but i doubt 10 year old games require a rx480. I suppose i'll wait for the aftermarket cooled one
>>343240225
jfc are you having a breakdown anon? don't spill tears
>>343233813
Fucking this.
I have literally never had an issue running games with the X60's series of Nvidia cards, and for a few years after each release. And even beyond that, turning down some AA or sacrificing a few shadows here and there, everything runs fine. The people who buy high end cards always seem to bitch about the next generation not being soon enough, and upgrade each gen or every other. They're never satisfied.
>>343237217
The best option at the moment would be PowerVR, but they're too busy printing money on mobile chips to care.
When the fuck are non-founder editions of GTX 1070 and 1080 are going to be available?
>>343240529
Completely the opposite actually. You guys are giving me flashbacks to days I want to forget
>>343240732
They're already available and fucking sweet

Desperation does crazy things to people. Being actually homeless or in prison with no support system brings monsters out of people. You either fight or die. There is no alternative
>>343233854
Project Cars is the game that uses Nvidia gameworks the most, so good job cherry picking.
>>343241191
i feel you brah. i was homeless for a month in new york. worst time of my life. the fucking cold and hunger made me want to do things i think i wasn't capable of. but yeah i learned one thing there its still a bad decision to get involved with drugs
>>343232310
>I have a 390
I feel comfy knowing I'm not gonna upgrade for another 4 years or so.
So glad I didn't get cucked into gaming in the slums
>>343239797
No monitors play in 80
>>343237762
It's called 1080 because its the resolution you use on the card.
waiting for 3rd party cooler should I get a 4GB or 8GB
>>343242412
asking myself the same question, kinda reasoned that 8GB was worth the $30 or $40 more
>>343242412
what resolution do you usually play at?
is this really the life of pckek? i mean seriously? you just wait for one of your devices (mainly your video card) to get outdated and you buy a more expensive shit? what the fuck? why not just buy a console hassle free? all of the best games are in the ps4 anyway ™
>$200 card released two years after $300 card has slightly improved performance
whoa
>>343242571
is this really the life of car buyer? i mean seriously? you just wait for one of your cars (mainly your car you own now) to get outdated and you buy a more expensive car? what the fuck? why not just buy a beat up shitbox for 3k off craigslist? all of the best shit is in my 1996 nissan altima
>>343242602
>a $379 card released a year after a $1000 card has massively improved performance
i know. based fucking nvidia. go 1070 or go home.
>>343242723
>1996 nissan altima
i bought a 2002 prius you wasted your purchase
this thread need more charts
>>343242883
I bought a 2015 civic si, why don't you stop being poor faggot
>>343227675
Even if its only 970 tier, for a new card that could be improved through drivers, that has 4.5 more gb ram than the 970 and costs 230 bucks its not bad at all.
Nvidiots are in full damage control today. The performance is right where people expected it to be. Between 970 and 980.
>>343242519
1080 but to set high on current games to medium for the next 4-5 years
>>343227675
>he fell for the AMD meme
>>343230803
I only have 1080p monitors
This card is a Godsend.
thats pretty insane performance for the money, holy shit.
i hope AMD fucking surges after this. they deserve it.
>>343243224
Yes Pajeet
>buying a value card
All these benchmarks prove that AMD is releasing garbage that's barely competitive with its own last gen of cards.
The 1070 will cost less than $400, and it will last much longer than some trash card that's half the price.
AMDfags, when will they learn?
>>343243109
>he fell for the NVIDIA meme
>>343243308
>The 1070 will cost less than $400, and it will last much longer than some trash card that's half the price.
thats still double the price
AMD hasn't even released their 490 or 490x
but I already got a 380 for $200 on Christmas
>>343242602
>significantly faster at 1440p
>much faster with dx12
>double the Vram
>a monster in CF
>only $200 at launch compared to the once $350 970
Yeah only a slight improvement
AMD has slain Nvidia in the most important market, the midrange. The 970 meme card is now useless. The 1060 won't have anything on the 480. This is the turning point, the point where AMD begins to overtake the market.
I still see no reason to upgrade.
>>343230803
>tfw paid 350 for a 970 like 3 months ago
JUST JUST JUST
>>343243430
>what is real value
The rx 480 is literal bargain bin trash that will barely live out its own generation.
You can expect the prices of the 490 and 490x to be right up there with the 1070 and the 1080; and if AMD keeps true to its track record, they'll still be outperformed by nvidia; so they'll knock $100 off the price and tell you that it's a value card.
It better fucking beat 970 in some games if it's drawing almost as much power as 1080, you fucking imbecile.
>237 / 37 / 83
>>343243695
two 480's will easily out perform a 400 dollar 1070
>>343229820
No, a couple cherrypicked reviews that look extremely suspect have "power consumption issues"
People are already calling them out on it because the card shouldn't even be able to physically draw the amount of power they're claiming it is.
>>343238503
who 750ti here
>>343243471
>dx12 will fix it
>drivers will fix it
>crossfire will fix it
Last time I heard this, AMD was trying to get me to buy the 390 and the Fury X.

>480 not doing much better than the 3.5gb meme card
it's over AMD are finished
>>343243471
the 970 is cheaper everywhere except america.
also
>double the Vram
>only $200 at launch
the $200 one has 4gb of vram. literally the same as the 970 or .5gb more of full speed gddr5 if you want to be picky.
>>343243715
AMD drains more power in general because of GPGPU features. Which is the reason they're ahead in DX12 and the card of choice for mining buttcoins
>>343243802
No, they won't. They'll struggle to match it, and they'll run hotter and louder under the load. It's a trash gpu.
>>343243595
for what purpose have you done this for, mane?
>>343244037
I Finished my year and started playing on PC again, but hardware was wayy outdated
>>343237548
>>343237762
>>343242004
It's called a 1080 because that's how much it costs.
>>343231752
$230 for RX480
$1200+ for GTX 1080
These are the ACTUAL prices you can buy them for and actually receive the card within that week.
Nvidia barely made any 1080's, they can't meet market demand and scalpers have bought most of the 1080 cards up to resell at much higher prices as a result. You can buy it at MSRP, but you'll have to wait several weeks, if not months, to actually get the card.
And two RX480's > 1 GTX 1080 for less than half the price.
AMD has btfo nvidia
>>343243960
too bad I don't give af about dx12 because I don't want to run a os that give lea free hands to put a keylogger on my pc without a search warrant

>crossfire
into the trash
>>343243895
But dx12 performance has already been proven. It's also been proven Nvidia gimps their aging cards with bad driver support.
For future proofing the 480 is king.
>>343244242
AmDon't costs 280-320 euros where I live
1080 costs 850
Sure 2x 480 is better on paper, but on real life the crossfire / sli / whatever 2x setup is much worse for gaming.
>>343244551
>For future proofing the 480 is king
>for future proofing, a card that barely beats a gtx970 is king
You're fucking retarded.
