What a surprise! It's still slower than literally every card released by Nvidia this year.

No one knows if it actually has 64ALUs per CU, a patent from a couple years ago shows AMD is moving away from that with multiple varying sized CUs, and two or more scalar units per CU.

AMD could be using an entirely different formula to represent shader throughput for 4th gen GCN. Maybe the scalar units can handle 8 ops per clock, and are actually being counted now when they never were before.

This type of speculation is near useless considering all of that.

It's a powerful gpu that can actually handle 4k.

Last I checked, AMD doesn't support virtual resolutions and monitor overclocking.

It'll be a solid upgrade from my GTX680.

There's no denying that the 1080 is performance king now, which is why I'm buying it.

What nvidia fan boys seem to miss is if 2 x 480's can outperform a 1080 in dx12 for $400 less, then amd has a low price target and will be able to outmatch nvidia's top card IF they made a card as capable.

I'm buying a 480 for my dual 1080p monitors. If I want more performance I will buy a second rx480. Simple as that. The 1070 oc is a disappointment compared to the 480 overclock.

The only agument you need to know the card won't beat a titan x is that it's 199$

Looks like somebody skipped economics class.

When your only competitor offers cards at that performance level for 500$ you can sell it for 400$ and make a fucking killing.

200$ is just plain ass fucking retarded and would never happen with a product that good.

I will just wait for the benchmarks to come in a few weeks and show you dumbass infants wrong.
>>
>>55154718

meaning that the base clock has absolutely no meaning what so ever since those core can boost up to 1.8ghz while having the rest of the card at idle

Please ignore them, current info says a stock RX480 performs between a GTX970 and a GTX980.

>b-but muh OC!
This doesn't matter. Most people don't OC and guessing the OC performance is highly speculative, don't count your chickens before they hatch. If you have one in your hand with 1600MHz, great. YOU have a card that will hit 1600MHz.

No shit. The spotted 1605mhz oc was in delta with the math. Above that point is unknown. The 480 oc can reach 1.6ghz stable. That is in striking distance of a 1070 stock clock. Not bad. The new architect and die shrink and die size shrink helps amd keep costs down a lot.

I want Polaris to succeed, but let's not kid ourselves. It will probably be better than the 970/390, but that's about it. Having a card that can OC and deprecate the entire GPU lineup for $200 would be incredible and they would have definitely mentioned that instead of going with more AotS bullshit. If anything, you should be excited for fatter Polaris in Vega without HBM2 so that it doesn't cost a fortune.

I think AMD didn't hype the card as much as it could because NVidia could pull off a price cut or a new card, as they did with the 980 Ti, which killed the Fury X; otherwise a amazing card for its price.

They are probably being careful about this.

>The 480 OC can reach 1.6GHz stable.
There's a few things that should be actually be kept in mind, not shilling for one side or the other. /g/ and 4chan in general seriously needs to fucking stop with hype trains, it's how you end up with worthless amounts of Ouyas and Mighty No 9 preorders.


1600MHz OC was acheived with heavy overvolting which is definitely not something your manufacturer is going to like you doing. This will affect the heat output pretty drastically, increase the power draw even more, and cut lifespan of the card. I'm guessing you can't hit 1600 on the stock 8pin model.

Heavy OC is also not guaranteed. It's also not the stock clock speed, and working for a GPU company I'll tell you right now the majority of people who buy overclocking cards never end up doing it.

If you're an actual overclocker this sounds neat in the very least, but neat in the G3258 sense. It's a cheap card that can overclock well (if all is to be believed.) Wait until everything is out to hand down a verdict, though.

And if you guys think this card beats a GTX1080 or whatever NVIDIA's ridiculously pricey cards are, please don't disillusion yourself. AMD isn't even trying to compete at the enthusiast end with the RX480.

No, it's somewhere between a 980 and 970 according to one benchmark and something like an R9 Nano according to another benchmark.

Where did I label myself as any sort of fanboy or shill? That fact is that all we know of Vega is that it will have HBM2. That's it. Given that Polaris is targeted at the mainstream, it's stupid to think that Vega will just be Polaris 10 with HBM2 at a much higher price. They're going to do fat chips and those cost money.

They definitely haven't dropped prices on Pascal. Pascal is still (painfully) priced.

Not sure what you're talking about but it took months for 980ti to hold consistent stock. Good luck overclocking a stock $200 card to beast mode levels by the way.
Also fuck you mang, I'm running 4K on a Mini ITX build. I couldn't give a shit about a single midrange card.

I'm all for wishful thinking and do hope AMD puts out a good card to spark competition. Except I don't give a shit about midrange cards so I cba to care about this shit until Vega.

Last news seemed to good to be true, but it seems that AMD is mad about the overclocking leaks.

>>55158368
Isn't the 1080 a single 8pin? That's 225W and well within that range.
Nobody said the cards can't spike over that, the ATX spec allows that but not for a long amount of time before everything goes up in smoke.

Why wouldn't it be possible? There's nothing wrong with VRM amount for there to be problems.

I seriously doubt the 8+6 pin is necessary, a single 8pin would suffice.
If the card is around 60C on stock, it'll need a significant OC to hit TJmax on it.
There's always increasing the fan speed, if you can handle some WHIRRRRRRRing noises.

NEVER FORGET.

"This particular $300 Rx 480 OC Edition will have toggle with two bios options - Standard bios of 1266mhz and Extreme bios of 1500mhz - All 6+8 pin models will be able to reach the 1500mhz mark - the only difference is some editions will have a overclock bios setting that will be set at the 1500mhz mark - while other cards will have to be done manually although today its easy to do manually by just a few clicks of a button with software - While running at 1570mhz - the OC edition runs at 72c with 99% gpu load with 65% fan - one impressive feat to say the least - This bodes well for AMD's new Polaris cards as it shows these cards are capable of even more than this impressive 1570mhz mark - In fact, in a closed box setup, we were able to "easily" obtain 1600mhz while running Battlefield 4 for over an hour with zero crashes or artifacts all while keeping below the 75c mark while using 99% gpu load - Even more impressive is the fact that the voltage usage leaves room for even a bit further tweaking to further our overclock past 1600mhz - One has to wonder what AMD has with the entire lineup of Vega right now - we can only imagine pure bliss in terms of performance at the top enthusiast level - AMD really does have something special on their hands. The Rx 480 while running 1500mhz is on par with the stock 1070 in-game, it even beats it on some games at this clock, anything more and the 480 begins to put some distance between the two cards. Keep in mind this is Dx12 games, this is where GCN 4 truly shows off."
>>
>>55158466
For a 50% overclock? Shit yeah the 8+6 will be necessary.

The card might be able to overclock like a champ on the beast mode edition; shit you might be able to get some juice out of the ref as well, but 1600MHz OC was on the Beast mode edition. Assuming it will be the same on a ref card as it was on a highly binned version is just asinine.

The leaks put 1070 +40% ahead of RX 480. As a comparison, 7970 was 25-30% faster than 7870 (7970 $550, 7870 $350). The difference between a 970 and 980 Ti was also less than 40%.

>a little worse
That's just delusional.

>but I'll just overclock it
With 100% scaling (not gonna happen), you'd have to OC the card to 1772 MHz to catch up with a stock 1070. Now, considering an overclocked aftermarket 1070 is some 15% faster (see link below) than a stock one, you'd have to OC your 480 even further to catch up.

Selling a high end product at a loss creates a vastly larger deficit than selling a mid or low-end product.

Selling the 1080('s chip) at a loss would be devastating to them. They don't have anything taped out other than GP100 and GP104, neither of which have good yields in the first place.


If you think AMD is selling the 480 at a loss you're sadly mistaken. The die is much smaller and yields go up exponentially the smaller your dies are because of dies per wafer and dies yielded per wafer.

I wouldn't believe it if you actually tried.

FinFETs don't lose any frequency scaling vs planar structures by their nature.

>>55159634
Exactly. This is what nvidia shill don't grasp.

Zen + rx 480 master race times are upon us

>i'm a smart buyer for waiting for the next thing to come out. the next thing is going to be so much better than the current thing
meanwhile i'm enjoying the witcher 3 maxed out at 3440x1440 on my gtx 1080. are you guys expecting the 480 will finally be able to play some game you couldn't play at the settings you wanted before? you guys are going to use your new gpus to play games right? you're not just going to run benchmarks over and over again right?

>>55159729
dude, my HD6870 max it out at 1080p and is 7 years old. Fuck yourself
>>
>>55159680
You should be able to push higher than that, anon. Around 1150-1200MHz is easily achievable.

I'm waiting for zen. The i7 6700 thermal lid is utter garbage.

You're fucking stupid. Why the fuck do I care if Brazilians and Yuropoors have shit monitors? I don't and I want to play my shit in 4k. Fuck right off huehue.
>>
>>55159729
you mean I should not buy the cards just to run benchmarks and get higher scores then my poor m80?

I need new powerful GPUs for upscaling video content to 4k with nnedi3 128 neurons

Do AMD shills honestly believe ocing a clock by 500hz will magically improve card's performance by 50%? 1080 goes up from 1600 to 2100 yet the performance gain is less than 5%
>>
>>55157851
Polaris is 14nm. Pascal is 16nm.
>>
>>55157851
The die sizes are different. I think polaris is 220mm while Pascal is 300mm.
>>
>>55159865
I don't think you know what you're talking about.

Polaris 10 is 230, GP104 is 320

>he doesn't know 3rd party vendors like to oc cards for a premium
You actually thought they were going to charge an extra $70 just for a fan?
>>
>>55154694
let's hope that AMD's mem controller as well as the vendor's selection of GDDR5 can handle ~2200 clock rate, because no matter the bandwidth headroom on stock clocks a 30% OC on the core is going to need some space to breathe.

With any luck the chips can gain 25% performance from those clocks like that math estimates, factoring in a bandwidth increase

Should I get the 4gb version or 8gb? 8gb seems like an overkill for 1080p
>>
It's already a mid-range killer as is.
Now it seems to overclock well with shitty cooler (what do you expect at 200$)
There's gonna be a whole range of third party cards in the 250/300$ with much better clocks.
>>
>>55160133

which one lmao, fx 6300 or i5 6300

Guys

Should i upgrade to 480 from a 670?
Is it worth it for gayman?
>>
>>55160157
For $20 that 4GB will come to haunt you in a year.
>>
>>55154783

dude, the 1080 is shit. i mean the 1070 is ok, but still tho

a 199$ product with OC is close to the 1070.

you do understand that 1080 is overpriced right? hopefully tho the gigabyte extreme is good and can actually OC to 2.2ghz. that will be a good card, but until then the ref cards and non ref all perform exactly the same, clocking to 2050 and performance increase isnt great, its like pointless to OC Pascal.

thats why i dont like the cards overall tho, they just arent that good, and performance is like 25% over 980ti at best
