I got a 980ti, using EVGA stepup to upgrade for free, selling 1080 for $450 ($150 loss) in a year, upgrading to AMD Navi (HBM2 card) for $100-200 Q1 2017.

Navi is going to destroy Nvidia. They're going for multiple GPUs on a single card again (like 2-3 of them), but the yield will be much greater than a single high end GPU (less chance of defects)

>Navi is going to destroy Nvidia

i wish your fantasy world were true bc competition is good for the market and consumer but sadly amd has only been relevant in terms of price for the past decade, nvidia and intel have always blown amd out of the water in terms of performance EXCEPT for compute performance like mining for bitcoins, AMD was/is great for that barring ASICs

be charitable and buy amd because they've been barely hanging on as a business for years

>amd destroying anything
They always hype shit up to impossible proportions with all the destroying rhetoric only to release it and post a 100 million dollar net loss next quarter.
The only thing AMD destroys are it's shareholders.

>Why is /v/ is easily tricked by Nvidia's marketing?

I'm an AMDfag but picking up a 1070 because it has insane price/performance and I'm sick of waiting for Polaris.

It's a $380 Titan X

By the time benchmarks come out for the 1070, AMD will have blown the competition out of the water with a release in late June.

>>336914307
It's not $380 though. The reference model is $449. It's very unlikely that non-reference models will be cheaper.

>>336914638
That was because of their architecture, they're using FinFET now and they're getting 980ti-tier performance at a fraction of the wattage meaning less heat.

Expect a $200-300 card that outperforms the 980

Non-reference will probably be around 50 dollars more expensive, but I'm holding off for the extra 1-2 months it'll take to get a model with better OC potential. I don't buy cards every year, I have a 580 still.

It'll be the same as the 970 situation. AMD had plenty of more powerful cards available, but 90% of games designed specifically for the 970 at high/max settings so it was the most consistently good performance overall. The 1070 is going to become the new max settings standard and will run everything great, the 1080 will be for 4k/intensive VR.
>>
>>336914825
Listen to the presentation carefully. They never mention a $379. They just say the MSRP is $379, but MSRP is meaningless if there is no product it applies to.
The only models you can actually buy are the $449 founders edition and whatever non-reference cards other manufacturers produce. None of the 3rd party manufacturers will make something cheaper than the reference model.

And you think that the consumer will go for a $379 card?

The 970 didn't become the norm until a year later when it hit the $289-$319 market. After seeing how badly they fucked up with le 3.5gb meme and DX12 asynchronous compute, I think the target demo for these cards are going to be wary to say the least.

Nvidia literally admitted it. The bin rate is much higher for the founders editions.

>>336916653
Nvidia's architecture is based on high end performance on a single wafer. This leads to defects, and only about 15% survive the top tier bin process

AMD's strategy of combining multiple wafers with a significantly lower defect count will lead to high performance at low pricing.

Also, look at AMD's performance recently. Crimson drivers and asynch compute is kicking Nvidia's ass.

I wasn't.

If anything I severely pissed at Nvidia for saying Pascal would be an entirely new design overhaul with slimmer cards, quadruple the VRAM and quadruple the performance for a lower price.

Instead we got around 20% of a gain over a 980 Ti after billions of dollars in research and development and the same fatass cards with 2 GB of extra VRAM.

At least it's more power efficient I guess

lets compare both high-end products from nvidia and AMD together

typically nvidia bros pay $200 for a maximum %10 increase.
but in dx12, the best stat i can think of, which has been already confirmed, is the 290x beating the 980ti in all native dx12 games. this has been tested more than once.

2016 will also see more than several dx12 games emerge. not sure why nvidia bros think dx12 is not important

hey, you think the tessellation is the only thing which nvidia ruined within that game?
nvidia had the devs scrap all of the gfx at the last moment because AMD would still do a better job rendering. this is the reason why TW3 was delayed
they literally had to burn down the entire playing field because nvidia marketing really thought TW3 was going to be some epic masterpiece (nvidia bought the cdproject red hype) so they payed millions to cdproject red to do this

Then why aren't they getting the contracts that amd is? AMD is up 57% for the year (even with poor er) while Intel is down and it'll keep up this way as long as amd keeps pursuing pc, console and vr tech. Intel might be better but they are losing ground to amd this year.

yeah sorry,
but its true

nvidia really did cause cdproject red to downgrade all of those graphics at the last moment.
their reasoning behind this was because nvidia marketing department (who coincidentially don't know shit about games, like most other people of the entire company) really thought TW3 was going to be this generation milestone in gaming. so nvidia really poured a lot of money into cdproject reds pocket to "modify" the game to best suite nvidia. the hard evidence of this would actually be the tessellation, but that is only one piece of a larger puzzle.
the entire graphics of TW3 were scrapped at the last moment because it was the only other way to give GTX cards a clear advantage.
nvidia cards are better at rendering when graphcs become "less complicated".
this is actually because of the maxwell architecture

all this async shit is done in dx11_3. there is currently no game engine in a popular AAA game that supports dx12 fully. you have to actually build a new engine from the ground up to support dx12. all these games like hitman, gears ultimate and quantum break all use dx11 (dx9 for gears ultimate) with bolted on dx12 'features'. and we all know how shitty all 3 of those games run on both amd and nvidia hardware.

390x doesn't have a lot of headroom with uber mode enabled. It is already pretty much the maximum it can attain from factory. Maxwell on the otherhand shipped out severely underclocked. You could easily boost core by 600mhz and memory by 1000mhz and maintain stability. Superior yields are superior.

Because then they would make less than now. Providing semi custom stuff is literally a penny business, that wouldnt make sense for Intel as this would cause them to lose ressources for markets that actually matter.
The only reason AMD is the one doing all the semi custom stuff is exactly because they are poor as fuck and will do anything for 1 buck and a hot meal.

this is a gpu thread so i assumed we were talking about gpu shipments. they can't be so off the mark with their charts. there may be a half percent margin of error but i very much doubt that they can be a whole 5% off the mark. either way, nvidia holds a commanding lead with shipped units and this will ultimately benefit them, along with their (sometimes misleading) marketing when it comes to the new gpu generation.

It has to do with the execution of multiple types of instructions on a GPU at the same time to maximize utilization of the GPU.

It can be thought of akin to Intels Hyperthreading in a way.

It's not something tied to any one graphical technique, but more a general shader performance improvement.

It was such a bad decision to get 770 with 2 gigs back in 2013. It doesn't hold up solely because of it.

First generation 28nm flagship was 680 just like the 1080 is now the first generation 16nm flagship.
It will be a year at least before they can produce a big version of Pascal in sufficient quantities to make a 1080ti or 1180ti or however they will call it.
The chip is already in production today (GP100), but it's not available in quantities until early 2017 even for server manufacturers. Consumers will only get their hands on it mid 2017

It was 6 months from the release of a cut down GK110 card, the 780, from the full GK110 card, the 780 Ti

780Ti was obsolete when Maxwell came out. I sold my two 780Tis for 900 USD total when the 980Ti launch and bought a 980Ti which easily out performed both cards in all games. Gonna sell my 980Ti and get a 1080 until the 1080Ti comes out early next year.
