Literally GTX 970 level performance, and will cost more than the cheapest 970s right now
>>55291507
Reference 970s are still 340aud here, let's see how much this will cost. If they have the 8gb option for around 360aud, it'll still be more worth it.
the 970 is $250-$270 after rebate at the moment
the 480 will be $200 usd with a full 4gb of Ram and 8gb for $30 more, it will offer 970/390 tier performance, which is what AMD promised. They promised to make VR affordable and the aformentioned GPU's are currently the recommended GPU's for VR. I don't see a problem with this at all.
>>55291507
>I wan't there to be 1 GPU company so they and they alone can dictate prices and performance forever.
This is how stupid you sound.
>>55291607
This, you bandwagoning hypetrain memefaggot.
>>55291607
When games start using 8 GB of VRAM, the 480 will already be too slow.
>>55291507
Why the fuck would you buy 3.5 in 2016?
>>55291710
Mirror's Edge Catalyst can use up to 6gb even at 1080p. The 970 can't even run it at max settings due to its memory limitations. It's just a taste of what's to come.
Also: Just because you were dumb enough to fall for pooloo/chink clickbait articles posted on /g/ for the last month doesn't mean AMD mislead you. You willingly fooled yourself if you thought a $200 product was going to replace a $400-$500 product

But that's literally what Raja Koduri himself said in the stream.
>>55291869
Wew lad, you really sound triggered.
If you want to use all of the crazy scalers and maxed rendering options in MadVR, the 480 will kick the shit out of any 970 or 980 due to superior compute and hardware decoding performance
This is only a niche usage depending on your chinese cartoon preferences, but for those that this appeals to, it's one hell of an appeal
>>55291735
Too bad no one is playing Mirror's Edge.
>>55291539
This.
It could still be a decent buy, plus we haven't seen any game benchmarks yet.
I'm expecting decent 1440p performance, but it'll be shit for 1080p because of the driver overhead.

>>55292379
>AMD cards have always been the better MadVR performers
Unfortunately for AMD, the most important thing is still performance in video games. This is what i, and 99% of the consumers are looking for, not watching their pedo-chinese cartoons with 0.1% better quality.
Let's hope at least for a 10% lead over the 970.
Dammit AMD, what the fuck are you doing
The 480 is in between the 970 and 980, with actual 4gb of VRAM, while using less power for the same price as nvidias pathetic reference design even if we're talking the 8gb model.
Face it nvidiots, you've already lost.
I never bought into to the maximum overshill over the last couple of months, but I did expect a bit better than this
hopefully the non-reference cards will be a bit more impressive
>>55292437
>Unfortunately for AMD, the most important thing is still performance in video games.
Which is why AMD is fine, seeing as they have all the major consoles under their belt, and there are loads more of those than desktop PCs with dedicated graphics.
>>55292457
The only thing I've lost is my faith in AMD. With a shit card like that, the fucking 1070 will never come down in price.
>>55292437
Expanding total addressable market?
>>55292437
>not watching their pedo-chinese cartoons with 0.1% better quality.
kek
>>55292533
Could you people stop using that shitty console argument? AMD barely earns anything on consoles, at least not nearly enough.
>>55292557
The 1070 doesn't need to come down in price, because it has no place on the market at all.
Feel free to point out where it's useful.
1080p? 1440p?
Waste of time, go with the 480.
4K / 1440@120 / VR?
Too weak, go 1080.
The 1070 is a card built by retards for retards.
>>55292597
Ayyy am drone stop with curry plz
>>55292592
Doesn't matter if they only make $1 per console, so far the PS4 and Xbone have sold over 60 million units.

A-So you dont have to wait 2 days.
>>55292685
You comment has nothing to do with my post.
>>55292720
Q-Why the RX 480 is so underclocked?
A-Because it's a reference card and it might also be the 6pin connection
>>55292727
You mean that card that doesn't exist yet, doesn't even have a release date and doesn't have a hope of competing with a future 480X + 480 price drop?
>>55292755
Doesn't matter if it takes 12 months, it's still a 100w, $199 card matching 980s right now.
Running on pre-release drivers.
>>55292772
The reference card is clocked at 1266mhz.
>>55291678
Competition only works when all parties involved are competent. Buying from an incompetent company to "support" competition only rewards incompetence.
>>55292715
KING OF THE WILD
>>55292773
it will be here in a few months, we wont see a price drop for the 480 for a long time.
I keep wondering if I would actually benefit from the 8gb card of if I should just go with the cheaper 4gb.
I'm not sure I even play any games that could use that much, except for maybe ff14 and perhaps when I really get a hair up my ass for it for whatever reason, tera online.
>>55292755
>I totally want to buy a gpu with drivers that won't mature for another 12 months.
Well your only other choice is buying a gpu with drivers that either make the card run slower after 12 months, or just straight up kill the card.
So I can understand your decision.
>>55292784
Except it will barely match a 970 until drivers mature.
Fuck off, we've already seen this happen with hd7970 and r9 290x.
I want a card that'll perform well now, and it'll perform just as well in 3 years when I upgrade.
That's why I'm getting a 1070 instead.
Plus don't forget the overhead from your shit drivers.
>>55292765
Finland. Not like I looked super hard for deals, but trying out three price comparison sites (one of which is PC focused) it was the best I could find.
>>55292798
The product will most likely perform as expected minus the monumental hype surrounding it.
I do not classify this as incompetence.
>>55292772
>A-Because it's a reference card and it might also be the 6pin connection
But the reference card is 1266MHz base clock. That video shows it at 1025MHz. Much more likely is that it's a 390 or 390X and a bullshit fake video.
>>55292829
Except you're talking out of your ass while in this very thread there's a video showing it comprehensively beating the 970, while clocked low.
>>55292831
But if you really cared about competition, you'd wait for the 1060/ti or 1050 to be out to decide who you'll support.
>>55292657
I like what I see.
>>55291771
newegg already confirmed they would. are you new?
>>55292848
>relying on pre release benchmarks
If it's as powerful as a 980, then it'll perform as well as a 970.
Thank AMD drivers and their shit performance on anything less than an overclocked i7.
I have no idea why people suddenly think this card won't perform in game at least to the level of a 390x given the AMD verified info we have on it at this point.
If it ends up being less that out of the gate it'll likely be an early driver and or cooler related issue that will be fixed by the time the AIB cards hit. Embrace the good news.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Lt41pdGJk
>>55291771
It's launching with enough stock that it will actually be at $199 for the 4gb model by mid next month at the latest, likely looking at 8gb backplate models for under $250 even at launch.
>>55292801
Feel free to post your source on the 1060s supposed release date.
There's already not enough chips to go around for the 1070s and 1080s so it's not going to be one of those cut down even more, so the release date is...
Sometime in the future.
Meanwhile, AMD already have mass quantities of 480 and by the end of the year sales will see $179 4gb reference models.
Not to mention the 470, which is looking like it will have within 5% of 970 performance for $150
>>55292837
brb you might be right
>>55292879
It's not as powerful as a 980, it's already performing at the level of a 980 as confirmed by multiple leaks and multiple videos.
Once again, this is on pre-release drivers. Give it a couple months and cards clocked at 1.3-1.35ghz will be easily beating 980s.
While using less than 150w, and costing $199.
>wah CPUs wah
Welcome to modern gaming. Tons of CPU and tons of RAM use to compensate for shitty console ports.
>>55292849
If all I did was wait around for the next best thing for my needs, I'd still be running a 9800GT.
This card is a great value and it fits my needs. I don't see see any issue with this card or buying it as soon as the non-reference cards come out.
>>55292837
The reference is 1266 at 'full', not base clock. 1025 might very well be one of its lower power states.
>>55292944
>Once again, this is on pre-release drivers
Just give up AMDrone, nobody believes that bullshit anymore
>>55292970
It's so cute how you have no points.
Feel free to keep supporting nvidia, though. It's cool that they have the GTX 1080, it's the only product they have with any point for the foreseeable future. That fact will keep them warm at night when they're selling the 50 a week they can actually produce.
AMD will just be over here selling 500 480s a day.

>>55292837
>>55292954

>>55293120
No we already have benchmarks showing it using at least 147W in stock
>>55293139
>>55293120
Average doesn't mean shit, strix 960 still managed to pull 250w from the pcie slot regardless how low average was, 295x2 pulled more than rated capacity from the psu power connectors.
It will pull up to 150w without an overclock, and higher when overclocked.
You're a dumbass AMDrone, go lick SUs asshole.
>>55293138
Nobody has found proof of performance going up by reverting back to older drivers.
>>55293154
I was agreeing with you actually, the morons are the AMDtards who have no clue
>>55293159
The gimping is not because of the drivers. It's the goyworks games utilizing needless features (excessive tessellation) that made Kepler cards run like shit. Even if Pascal really is mostly just a higher clocked Maxwell, Nvidia will find a way. Stay cucked though.
are these cards worth the cash as a canadian or will i be messed up by customs and duties that i should just use my intel graphics.
>>55293194

You're like a nigger you can't think ahead of yourself, tackling this problem now means you don't have to worry about it later.
In a few generations more using tessellations 64x will barely have any impact on performance.

>>55293388

Literally what's the point? And why would you need more than integrated graphics on a hackintosh, OS X has few games and everything that else would require a GPU can also be done on Windows or Linux better than on OS X.
How is the 480 a fuck up at $200? It's not a high end card. You get a great entry level gfx card for vs and great 1080/1440p gaming for 200. Stop expecting so much. It's not a 1080 at $700

You're fucking retarded if you think anyone is going to pair the rx480 with a recent, and overclocked, i7.
No one will get advertised performance because it's a budget gpu for budget builds with budget CPUs that will suffer from the driver overhead every AMD card suffers from.
I'm not going to buy an old nvidia card, they age like milk. Coming from a 7970 I've been spoiled with actually good driver updates.
>>55293550

If your cpu costs more than your gpu then you fucked up, and driver overhead will always be Issue unless you're playing at 4k on AMD.
>>55293575
Drivers have been improving but until they remove the single core limit and fix the high overhead, they will always be shit. Now it's just shit that doesn't smell as bad as it used to.

>>55293591
????
are you paranoid or something?
>>55293592
what I can see in that comparison, is the result of the fury X having a much wider bus, which means, it can transport a lot of data much faster. which is why it's better at higher resolutions.
>>55293638
I'm sure it has nothing to do with the driver bottlenecking the cpu.
I'm sure higher resolutions don't reduce the cpu load making it easier to work with horrible drivers.
>>55293592
>If your cpu costs more than your gpu then you fucked up
that's stupid, you're going to have the same processor over the span of multiple gpus is you care about game performance. you also gave an example of one gameworks game and it doesn't show the CPU used.
>>55293634
if you are implying games don't use more than one core you are literally not worth further keystrokes replying to
>>55293256
>Is google gimping me?
No, because android doesn't get any updates to begin with.
>>55293652
CPU usage depends on the game, not on the drivers (not much at least). and comparing games that use a lot of CPU only makes sense for higher resolutions. plus, fury x clearly was made to be used with high res monitors.
the graphs clearly show that fury x are actually good, powerful cards, not as bad as nvidia fanboys want us to believe.

But for almost half the price and power consumption. Not to mention, Polaris is their mid-range cards. The GTX 1070/80 competitors are coming in Vega whenever the hell that gets released.
>inb4 waiting meme
YES. Vega should've been released earlier to better compete because everyone interested in high-end cards will have already gotten a GTX 10 series card before that happens. But AMD fucking admitted Polaris 10 was mid-range. How is GTX 970 performance underwhelming for a $200 card that was always advertised as being mid-range?

I don't normally buy into the brand meme but that's literally the only answer I can muster right now.

Any idiot that supports this fucking shit GAYMAN CARD bullcrap these days can go fuck off, you're not only killing gaming but PCs as well.

and downclocked from the 970?
i feel bad for the nvidiots today.
Behold the disappointment - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b048zpxhABA
Anyone that really thought a 200 card was going to be anything close to a 4-500 card is a moron and just foolishly buying into the hype.
This card is literally outperformed by my old GTX 970 Asus Strix, which you can pick up for about 200 now anyway.
Save your money for a 1070 if you're a cheapskate, cause the 480 isn't the card you're looking for unless you're on some old antiquated gpu currently.

>>55293734
it's just shit tier trolling
>>55294025
The 480 is just a bad upgrade for anyone at this point. The only place it would have is in a totally new build.
>>55294043
What are you suggesting in it's place? And don't say 1070
>>55291507
If anyone paid attention and looked at the fire strike scores this would have been known for a very very long time.

why do amdrones always say

"wait for drivers to mature"
wait wait wait wait wait
same fucking cycle
>>55294092
Uh.. yeah... Of course it's not a legacy youtube account, the guy is only breaking the NDA that allowed him to get the card early...
You can clearly see the card info in the Overwatch settings screen, so how is this not reliable?
I mean, I get it, it sucks that this 200 dollar card isn't all it's cracked up to be, but that's just the way it is. No reason to waste your breath trying to defend a card that isn't even out yet.
Maybe the non-beta drivers will make a huge fucking difference /s lol
>>55294070
If I was going to spend 500€+ on a GPU I would've done so already instead of waiting for 480.
>>55294078
Anything that doesn't involve more waiting?
>>55294090
Unless the outperforming mentioned at >>55293934 is significant I don't think it'll be worth it. You definitely can't get it for 'about 200' here.

That was Nvidia trolls and baiters. Nobody realistically thought that.
>>55294142
???
>>55294141
Oh that's what'll do, if it ends up being garbage I won't sell my 970, though I really do want to sell it, at the same time I don't want to lose the exclusive nvidia features.
>>55294137
Please see the aforementioned video. 480 struggling to maintain 80 fps in DOOM on max settings @ 1080.
My 970 can maintain 110 fps in the same game on the same settings @ 1080. That's a pretty big fucking difference imho.
Here's a link to a 150e gpu on amazon.co.uk before you go saying they are 500 lol https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B00UMVCYTM/ref=sr_1_4_olp?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1467087792&sr=1-4&keywords=gtx+970&condition=new

More like a gtx 960 v2 but hotter and more power hungry cause it's AMD.
Seriously though, you could heat your house with a 390 lmfao

did you even read the comments? the video is clearly fake.

Still pretty damn far from 500 tho amirite? rofl
so the extra 70-100 dollars from each founders edition went to shitposting on social media and 4chans about amd
interesting strategy nvidia
Uh, I have a GT 220 and I wanted to upgrade to this GPU. But I have an older i3 CPU. Does that mean that this card will run like shit? My other option was to get a 750 Ti
>Low midrange card has performance of high midrange card from last gen+support for new technologies and overclocking
This is bad why?
>>55291507
How long will a 480 last me? I'm thinking about overhauling my PC now that I have a real job.

Alright no but for real why didn't they put a god dam DVI input? whats their fucking excuse?

I meant 500. Got trigger finger. ;^)

-6 to -12 months from the specs we've seen so far
>>55294231
Which i3 is it? It should be fine. the Rx 460 will be a lot better than the 750 ti at the same price point. It should also be available this Wednesday, if I'm not mistaken.
>>55294258
I can screencap the US Amazon if you like. It makes no difference. It's all relative.
>>55294120
Just keep waiting, someday AMD will crawl out of the ditch they dug themselves...someday....someday...just not with the 480...

Oh, sorry I forgot the pound took a fucking pounding this week. I guess when you're national currency is useless, it probably is pretty expensive, huh?
>>55294059
970 and 390 are both better choices than the 480 at this point
>>55294266
Just looked, average is 300. Unless you mean used. In which case, kill yourself.

>>55294262
http://ark.intel.com/products/46473/Intel-Core-i3-540-Processor-4M-Cache-3_06-GHz
this one. i a europoor so I'd have to figure out a way to buy the card. ordering it from amazon means another 60$ to the price of the card, just wanted to know if i can actually use it and if its worth it
>>55294275
Look again newfriend. There's an option for used cards and an option for new cards from non-amazon fulfillment services, typically 10-50 dollars cheaper. I linked the latter :)
Might be a good tip for you to remember when you're building a budget computer with AMD parts, if you can't afford good parts.
>>55294266
just kidding bro.
trying to cause more hate in the thread lol
>>55294301
Uhh no they don't
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/4pzcl1/xfx_rx480_unboxing_benchmarks/
The 480 is literally worse than a 970
>>55294294
Average is $300 for a 970 yes. That's still more expensive than a 480 for a 2014 card.
>>55294276
Yeah dude, do yourself a favor and don't put a card with two year old specs into a new build. The extra bucks for a 1070 will be well worth it.
So, if my 280x stopped working, should I just get a 480 or get something else?
>>55294170
i don't get why people bother with fps over 30
your eyes can't see more than that
anyways...
can we all agree that 21:9 monitors are a meme?
>>55294300
lolololol
>>55294314
Thanks but I will take a cross section of official reviews on launch day and after to make a more accurate assessment rather than 1 or 2 supposed shitty leaks. But thanks for the input.
>>55294319
fuck off shill
>>55294311
Alright, I get it. You got tricked when the 970 was the hot meme card. But trying to dupe others into making a foolish purchase is just wrong dude.
>>55294325
That's just what they tell you in the AMD press releases, lol.
>>55294352
Compared to the 480 it's still pretty damn hot, lol. I've got a 1070 now though. I'm keeping the 970 so I can loan it to friends who make the mistake of getting that AMD jank card coming soon to a walmart near you.
>>55294321
If you can't afford anything else why not? It will equal or beat a 970 with more memory, less power and lower cost and is only likely to improve as time goes by whereas the 970 will only get worse.
>>55294321
Just switch over to integrated graphics until you can afford a gtx 10xx card. You'll prob get higher fps that way than with a 480, lol.
>amd shills vs nvidia shills, the thread
meanwhile, this thread is entertaining and i'll wait for official benchmarks and reviews
everything else is bullcrap
>>55294236

Man, don't let this trolls fuck with you.
Do you really think a card that performs worse than a two year old card does is going to last three more years?
I know this is 4chan and all, but are you guys seriously just trying to get people to waste their money for fun? I'd be ashamed of myself.
Used 970 prices will fall to $150-$170 after this release and will be a better buy for 1080p. And, I will be buying one to have exclusive and useful nvidia technologies like gamestream.
>>55294165
Holy shit same, especially shadowplay
>>55294440
AMDtards know no right or wrong, they are just blind fanboys
>>55294443
do you buy used dildos too?
>>55294440
You don't seem all that trustworthy either. Since the previous benchmarks that were leaked showing it preforming as well as expected.
>>55294452
I totally understand wanting to root for the underdog. I totally understand wanting to get a sweet deal. I totally understanding wishing that new gaming tech wasn't marked up like crazy...
But I don't understand the AMD guise getting let down over and over and over again, but still going back. Still holding out hope that one day they might put out a relevant GPU or CPU.
It makes me feel bad, they could just save a little bit longer and get a card that actually has value and maybe even holds value for a couple years.
