AMD poorfags on suicide watch
From what I read from the bits of the tread above, AMD needs to fix power draw from pci-e slot or won't be getting pci-e certification. which may or may not be important on low end motherboards, but AMD needs to re engineer something in order to make it's card industry stanfdard (pci-e) compliant.
>>343288728

FUCK YOU GUYS THIS IS THE LAST STRAW I HAVE ENOUGH WITH YOU CUNTS HERE
>>343288728
Will probably be fixed with a new driver or BIOS that throttles the card as it's too late for a recall, in particularly as the manufactuers are already in production.
nVidia fucked up as well - the 1070 and 1080 cards are not fully supporting D-DVI spec and have boot issues on high-Hz displays. Might be fixable with a BIOS update though.
POO
>>343290941
>you fell for the poo man and his card
FUCK
amd is made for poor neets. if you own any amd products, consider suicide.
It's okay they'll just gut the card's performance and power draw with a driver
forget about matching a 970, enjoy your 660 performance poojeets
Yet ANOTHER paperlauch. Shame on both companies. I'm praying for Intel to start producing GPUs as well so I can (at very least) hope for some improvement on the market.
nVidia and AMD are companies run by retards, there's no other explanation.
>>343291005
>>343291168
Holly shittt... This is massive.
So RX 480 users are either going to not be able to use the card due overloading the motherboard...
Or paying $200 for a $100 card?
Guys, I just need something to replace my HD 6870.
What 2 do for about 200€?
>>343291395
It's a paperlaunch.
They HAVE to fix it otherwise they'll get sued into oblivion for destroying entire rigs.
I just hope the customs are able handle all the power draw and heat (wich probably will) so I can buy them.
>>343290906
>this post
welp, guess I'm waiting for the next series when they focus on pure power
>>343291728
You can wait for about 2 months until the cards that come from ships arrives. They'll cost much less than the ones that arrives with planes, and by the time there will be much less hype, thus much lower prices.
I know, the market sucks colossal dicks.
With that said, you'll be able to choose between 1060, 480 and maybe if you save some money the 1070.
>>343291728

>>343288213
If you actually read the thread, you would know it's all a bunch of nothing. The compliance board does not care if it's out of spec. The spec is just meant to be a compatibility thing. Nothing bad is going to happen if you perform out of spec. There's won't be any recertifications, not by amd, nor by pci-sig. Even nvidia would probably side with amd on this one.
ie it's just nvidia fanboys making a fuss out of nothing.

Strix card go over 75W from the PCI-E slot in short peaks. Sure, that's bad and shouldn't happen and might be bad for your rig, but the average power from the PCI-E slot stays below 75W.
RX480 is well over 75W on AVERAGE. As in, it pretty much never goes below 75W. There's a huge difference between short power spikes and drawing high power ALL THE TIME.

>>343298912
did you copy that most from /r9k/?
>>343299040
Me too. I would never get an AMD card but I don't have anything against others getting one. The reason for shit like the 3.5GB debacle is the lack of competition.
>>343299148
Oh come on, I didn't post a shitty frog or complain about having no gf.
>>343298563
PCIe certified means that the card is compliant with the electrical standards fitted to every single motherboard on earth with a PCIe slot. It can not exceed the standards without putting the motherboard at risk of a power overload, which can literally cause housefires on shitty cheaper motherboard made for OEMs (aka pre-builts, AKA over half of the PC market).
The RX480 failed to meet these specifications by putting too much power draw through the PCIe slot, putting much of the intended audience at risk of some smoky computers.
AMD fucked up again. This is the last straw for them.
>>343298173
we aren't on /g/ right now lmao
>>343298563
AMD decided to only put a 6 pin psu connector on the card, so instead of getting large amounts of power from the psu, it gets lots of power through the pci-e port on the motherboard that the gpu is connected to
basically they're being dumb as usual
>>343299209
But you showed a complete lack of understand why high heels are a thing
>>343299268
So the next batch of card will have 8 pins?
>>343299375
I guess so. I'm not a girl or give too much of a shit about shoes other than the ones I hate seeing.
>>343299247
Aaaand that proves that my brain doesn't work in hot weather even better than a missing "s" at the end of "cards".
>>343299536
>tfw it's so hot you forget what board you're on
Jesus anon, go cool down.
>>343298713
>>343299375
Nope. If you looked at the reference board PCB, there is only a 6-pin mount, no eight-pin mounts. That means redesigning the board, which could take months to recertify and test.
The RX 480 will get gimped instead with some sort of power management system that the Nano had.
Expect sub-970 performance, closer to a heavily overclocked 960 or stock 380X.
>>343295940
>witcher 3 with hairworks turned on
It honestly looks exactly same, you'd need to be some kind of real autist to actually notice it in average gameplay session.
I wanted it to be good. Fuck's sake, AMD.
>>343299930
>looks the same
>Geralt's hair looks like spaghetti
Remember to get the mod that makes hairworks show up for everything EXCEPT Geralt's hair
>>343299268
>AMD decided to only put a 6 pin psu connector on the card
That's not the cause though. While the ATX spec says the 6pin connector can only supply 75W, just like tha PCIe slot, most PSUs acutally allow you to draw a lot more than 75Wfrom it without any problems or danger. There previously have been some non-referential constructions that were drawing more than 150W just from the PCIe slot and a single 6pin connector, but didn't go over 75W from the slot.
The problem lies in the fact that the card itself "decides" to draw too much power from the slot instead of the 6pin connector, and if they don't change that, then replacing the 6pin connector with an 8pin connector won't change anything.
>>343299880
Except this problem is only on few of the cards.
>>343299880
Please stop being dumb.

>>343299880
Non-referential cards often have different power connectors than the referential ones. For example, there are GTX960s with 6pin, 6pin+6pin and 8pin power connectors.

>posting an AIB custom PCB card
You stop being dumb first. I was talking about the reference cards, which are the ones violating the PCIe specification.
>>343300154
And those problematic cards are out on the market right now. There are no AIB cards on sale right now, only reference cards.
>>343299880
That's a huge leap of logic there.
Given that the 480 apparently passed PCISIG certification, and given that they haven't pulled the cert yet(they're usually on the ball), AMD must have made a decent case to them that it's just a "rare occurrence in a few cards". it's likely that nothing at all will happen.
You're just rolling the dice if you stick a 480 into a cheapo motherboard and put load on it, is all.
>>343300390
Not that guy but I think anyone wanting a 480 would probably just wait for a Sapphire one now. That's what AMD-exclusive people usually go for anyway instead of reference designs.
>>343300473
>That's a huge leap of logic there.
It's not. It does take months to retest and recertify any electronics because you have to send them to dozens of organizations around the world for them to give their stamp of approval on it.
>Given that the 480 apparently passed PCISIG certification
The cards AMD sent to get certified did not have the same drivers and firmware that was being put on sale today, that much is clear. What AMD did was send the regulators a compliant card and boost the wattage draw through the PCIe on the consumer version without physically changing their card.
>>343300498
I doubt that AMD will change their reference board design this late in the game when aftermarket AIBs are about to hit the market. This still does not look good for them in the PR world, that's for sure.
>up to 200W through PCI-e slot
>>343300839
Yeah, I agree. It doesn't look good in PR but we all know even retarded marketting can be rectified with some shilling and a couple million.
>>343300839
>The cards AMD sent to get certified did not have the same drivers and firmware that was being put on sale today, that much is clear. What AMD did was send the regulators a compliant card and boost the wattage draw through the PCIe on the consumer version without physically changing their card.
I highly doubt amd would gamble the livelihood of their GPU division with that kind of fraud anonymous.

>>343300970
Then you misunderstand AMD, and Nvidia to a lesser extent.
This is nothing new.
i'm so glad im not poor and dumb like AMD fags.
>>343300473
Why would you buy a 480 and not buy a cheapo motherboard?
If you are buying anything from ATI/AMD, its strictly a budget item.
Are you going to buy a $200 motherboard and a $200 graphics card? Of course not, you're going to buy some $60 ECS crap.
>>343300921
That is on spike, which occasionally happen.
GTX960 on the other have have constant spike (around 20 per minutes) that goes close to 300 watt and nobody make such fuss about it.
Also PCI-E compliant is not enforced and unless you have shitty $40 budget motherboard this shouldn't be an issue.
>>343288213
I'm kindly asking you to delete this thread.
NVIDIA ALWAYS WINS BBY
>>343301325
>If you are buying anything from ATI/AMD, its strictly a budget item.
What? AMD and NVidia compete in every price bracket, with AMD usually having better performance all the way up until the toppest of the top tier with the -80ti type cards.
>>343301325
Any quality MOBO shouldn't have an issue with less than 14% extra draw through their PCI-E circuit.
There's ton of $100 range MOBO that have higher spec rate than normal not to mention that any recent MOBO can handle these extra load just fine.
>>343301639
I wouldn't risk my rig with these cards. I mean, I know it's probably safe, but it isn't just worth the risk.
I don't know whether AMDrones or Nintendrones are more funny when they get booty blasted, but I'll take what I can get.
>actually expecting a $199 card to match a 970 without a catch
Not only does it not match a 970, but it also doesn't fucking work
Only AMDfags are delusional enough to think they wouldn't get horribly cucked for $199
>>343297676
its like watching chandler from friends
>>343301886
Tons of GPU in the history have been known to suck more juice out of their PCI-E circuit.
If your board have multi GPU setup then the risk is almost nonexistent.
Your board won't fry or anything, the worst case scenario is system failure.

RX 480 is great, it's the best 1080p 60fps card.
But why are you comparing the 480 and the 1070? The 480 is a $200 1080p card and the 1070 is a 400-500 dollar 1440p card. They're in two completely different brackets.
Poo in the loo technology at it's finest.
>>343304770
Because AMDposters have been saying that there's no reason to drop an extra $250 on the 1070 since the RX480 is coming out for the past month now.
>>343298554

>>343305195
You should listen to what people are actually saying. They were saying that if you game at 1080p 60fps, then the 480 is the card to go with. Because the 1070 is far overkill for that, it's a card that was built for 1440p or 144hz.

The cards are already produced.
The only way they can fix it is by throttling the card so it draws less power while lowering performance.
i wish GPU's would stay more ahead of games
this meme of new top end cards barely pulling 60+ on current games with ultra settings on and high end monitors is lame
a high end GPU should blow anything that comes at it out of the water for atleast 2 years
I was saving $250 for an RX 480 but after seeing what a blunder it is I know what I'll be spending it on to get my money's worth.

>AMD (AMD) has bought HiAlgo, a developer of software tools that improve a PC's gaming performance and image quality, and also prevent a PC's CPU and GPU from overheating while playing demanding games. Terms were not disclosed.
>HiAlgo offers three products: Boost, which makes gameplay smoother and reduces lag; Switch, which can instantly increase a game's frame rate by cutting its resolution in half; and Chill, which intelligently limits a game's frame rate to prevent overheating and increase battery life without hurting a game's performance. AMD suggests it will integrate HiAlgo's technologies with its Radeon Software, which comes bundled with graphics cards based on its GPUs.
And you all were worried.

But with VW they fucked it knowingly
Still they will bounce back, if AMD would have done some shady shit like that knowingly I think they are done and would sell their shit. Which would be bad.
>>343308836
Most of VW thought it would be ridiculous too

Not that anon, but if I make a chip that does things that it shouldn't be doing, there are two options;
I did some houdini tricks to make my chip look less power consuming
My engineering team forked something and it somehow passed.
My wafer supplier is a dork and trying to make me bend over.

show me a single amd card that can compete with a 1070 or 1080 or 980ti

Jokes on you, the new xbone is going to have a 480 in it.
what are the long term effects of overloading your pci-e slot
>>343302634
fuck off amd
>>343309486
yes
I still don't get the deal.
Will it have exclusives? Lmfao nope the normal Xbone didn't even have any, so will it just play the same games that are on Xbone and PC in 1080p? Will it have Oculus/Vive support? If so it's just a Steam machine.
>>343305989
>Yes, I asked
You're a good man.

>decide to wait a day for reviews
>all the reviews point to it being exactly as advertised, a great mid range card that out performs nvidia at a cheaper price
>they shipped TWENTY FIVE TIMES AS MANY as nvidia did 1070s
>its already sold out everywhere and the only places to get them gouge the price by $100 or more
where were you when I learned not to trust /v/ ever
>>343293547
Best guess: at the last second they realized their card was underperforming the 970 and boosted the clocks. Would also explain why they run so hot and why they can't be OC'd past 1.5% without massive artifacting and past 1.6% without dying.
AMD shouldn't have focused on the power consumption meme.
It's a 290 for $200 or a 390 for $240. Great deal, end of discussion.
The 1060 is going to be another gimped memecard with 3GB and crap memory bandwidth.

nice one pajeet
How did Nvidia trick everyone into caring about the power consumption meme?
AMD should have just put an 8-pin on this card and not pretended it was under 150W.
>>343311843
Reading comprehension a little drab there, sonny?
The 8gb version is 350 fucking euros in my shithole of a country. Fuck.
>>343312020
no I read it just fine please try again.
>tfw all the reviewers having their cards locked to 1080mhz makes sense now
Amd literally locked their card at a lower clock to lower power draw for testing. All those chink reviewers saying their early drivers were locked at 1080 mhz makes total sense now. Fuck amd. I'd take 4gb of slightly gimped vram over something that'll fry my motherboard and kill my pc.

You're greatly underestimating the amount of people who use this site.

DVI is fine for 144hz. You only need display port if you're also doing something like freesync/g-sync, higher resolutions, or a mixture of the two.
>>343312112
Okay, when the fuck did retards like you start seriously buying into the shill meme?
>>343312262
You are confused. I said that the poster you quoted did not believe what he was saying. You replied to bait. You are the baited. You can't recognize a 12 year old trolling you.
Have a good day.

Do you know how cheap it is to find work on that?
The average person would have no trouble affording a few internet shills let alone a whole company.

>pretending to be retarded
>>343311958
>barely
It clearly beats a 970 at 1080p and annihilates it at 1440p
It has yet to do anything harmful to a MB and that is literally a non-issue considering the custom cards will be 8pin.
India: 1
Israel: 0
Man AMD drones will defend literally anything holy shit.
>>343310340
To my knowledge, the long-term effects aren't so much an issue as the short term effects. Standards dictate that motherboard makers have to supply at least 75watts to the slot, so the problem becomes if you've got a manufacturer that gave the bare minimum(in which case the system will probably shut down), or one which provided an extra allowance. The slots themselves are actually rated pretty high, pcie3.0 can sustain something like 300 watts.

>Manly tears installs RX 480 for a cuck.jpg
So the reference is shit. Will the aftermarket cards fix this problem or is the 480 doomed forever?
>>343312546
>Rise of the Tomb Raider DX12 aside, the RX 480 manages to effectively trade punches with GTX 970 at 1440p - perhaps down to them both using a 256-bit memory interface.
They're neck and neck at 1440p with digital foundries benchmarks showing they're both within 1-4 fps of each other in 7/8 games tested. How is that annihilation?
>>343293619
>>343306257
So someone mind summerizing the difference in Monitor connects? And what's best for what?
>DVI, VGA, HDMI, Display-port
>>343313038
Aftermarket will probably fix it with 8 pin power connection, never buy reference
>>343313038
Outlook hazy, ask again in two days once smart overclocked have figured out if the card is just power and temperature limited, or architecture limited.
If it's just power and temperature, theoretically aftermarket cards could fix things.
>>343312118
Don't give Nvidia any more ideas. They already think we're retards who are okay with 3.5

8pin and DVI port. It should fix any issues the reference cards have.

Based sapphire
Is it just me or has sapphire released the best aftermarket amd cards every gen?
>>343313089
With 8gb of vram, the 480 will continue to chug at 1440p while the 970 falls sharply.
>>343312739
Oh, also really old pcie slots(1.0/1.1) can't sustain that so those would be at risk of actually frying. I don't think anyone is still using motherboards from 2006 though

If it doesn't burn down your house before then lel.

No its not too late, Amd is just too poor to handle all those refunds. They also don't wanna admit they made a mistake.
