Why did it take so long to release a worse, more expensive 970 with no drivers?

They had to sell off their stock in power companies first.
>>
It's actually cheaper. Probably a good card if you're poor.

Can you find us a $239 brand new 970 with 8GB (not 7.5) of GDDR5 vRAM. Didn't think so.

You're making this a lot harder than it has to be. Just accept it, AMD won.

What you forget to mention is that no 1070 or 1080 is actually going at nvidias MSRP, they're massively more expensive cause of nvidia being cucked

No drivers? They've actually got open-source drivers on Linux now. Which means AMD is now the standard for anyone that doesn't want to deal with Microsoft's Bulls hit.

I ordered a 1070 half an hour after reviews of 480 came out and one more hour later I was installing it in my PC ( the store I usually get my stuff from is 15 minutes away )

I've been with AMD since 2008 with 4 different cards, but the 480 is just disappointing because of all the retarded hype they did. I'd put it in a new build though, I guess, or if I still had the 4850 or something
