IT'S OVER, AMD IS FINISHED.

If you care about value then the 1070 is the go to card, if you care about performance then the 1080 is the current king.

Anything less than that is just poorfag tier and not worth buying unless you only need extra video out ports in your pc.

So i can get 980 performance for 200$ and thats a bad thing? With some OC im sure itll get closer to the 980ti.

RX 480 will be my next purchase undoubtedly now (I play at 1080p)

Nvidiots don't care about cost or value when it doesn't benefit them. In this case the RX 480 not being able to beat the 1070 or 980 is a major victory regardless if the thing costs about half as much.

When you buy Nvidia you're more likely to have to settle with a budget CPU than when you buy AMD and have another $150 to spend.

If you honestly cared about value, you'd get the 1070 with an i3 6100. If you cared about performance, you'd get an i5 6600k or i7 6700k instead, and if you have enough money to blow, you'll get the i7 and a gtx 1080 for 4k gaming.

Except it will. Amd drivers are so bad a 290x is bottlenecked by an overclocked 4770k.

I3 6100 is the king of budget performance right now and considering most games are gpu bound, and upcoming games are dx12, the i3 won't hold the gtx1070 back.

So this is probably b8, but scoring around a 980/390X is pretty amazing for a $200 mid-range card. Obviously it won't compare to the 1070 considering it costs twice as much. The high-end RX cards (Vega/Navi) should compete with 1070/1080, not the RX 480.

Anon, I'm sitting on 2 780s that I can almost never update the drivers for because while SLI will (barely) work in a new game, they break performance in about 20 other games. I literally haven't purchased DOOM because of this.

Meanwhile, the 290x that I have -- granted, it's not my daily driver system -- hasn't had a problem since I got it. It's a PCS+ 290x and I had some shitty GPU utilization (it's paired with my old 4.8GHz 2500k), but it got fixed within a week of having it.


tl;dr confirmation bias -- everyone conveniently ignores bad nvidia drivers
>>
>>55082525
Not him but you need 2 just for AoTS. I'd say that's pretty shit.

And let's not forget how bad drivers will be on launch. You'll need 6 months before the 480 will be performing competitively, which means nvidia can release a gimped 1060 and get away with it.

But...why does everything need to be on Very High Quality or Ultra to be enjoyable? I was playing Crysis 3 with no AA and everything on Medium and it still looked beautiful, especially compared to console variants.

Higher quality is always nice, but it should've be the make or break for game enjoyment. If your enjoyment of a game entirely hinges on how pretty it looks, it's more often than not a poorly written game.

Those benchmarks are so hilariously inaccurate.

A single one of my 780s gets 60FPS+ (1150core/3500mem) at 1080p in W3, so those benchmarks are either wrong as fuck or with shillworks on.

The upcoming Vega line was always supposed to have HBM2 according to AMD roadmaps.

The only thing we know now is that anything named 490 and above will not be a Polaris based chip. 460, 470, 480 are it for Polaris. There's the $100-$300 right there.

It either doesn't work at all, or scales like shit. You'll rarely find a game that scales well like bf4 or AoTS. And with dx12 multiadapter is even harder for devs to implement it.
>>
>>55083405
It sounds like a great idea on paper but what's going to happen behind the scenes is a ton of money being thrown around at developers either way to get it implemented or not implemented (depending on who is paying) that's going to determine mGPU's fate.

mGPU as a technology isn't shit. Ashes of the Singularity showed that a second GPU scales at something like 83% bonus performance on top of the first GPU. That's a pretty good indication that the technology itself can work but whether devs invest in it or not remains to be seen.

>>
>>55084087
HMC is shit, meant for density at the expense of power and latency.

It uses high-clocked serial buses like Rambus did in the Pentium 4 days and potentially multiple buses with mesh topology routing.

The only thing it has in common with HBM is the stacked memory with the through-silicon vias, and the external interfaces are completely opposite in philosophy.
