TL;DR, what's this shitty Founders option? premium content?
>>337915686
A shiny sticker.
There was a thread about this 2 days ago I think.
Was talking about how AMD has no endgame graphics chip for the next year, but they still survive due to mid tech focus and deals with consoles, etc. They also have a chip that should prove alright eventually, but Nvidia is dominating many future breakthroughs.
Also most games the last 4 years never fully utilised all cores 'Nvidia holds a bit of the blame' but now this card as the ones before it can just brute force it's way to the top.
Now, we just need games that will make the most of it. Does PC have anything good?
>>337915315
Is there any news about the ti model?
>>337915686
Shitty cooler and power limit that limit OC potential.
Wait for custom models. Expect moon prices.
>>337915914
AMD's flagship HBM2 GPU is due next year first before Nvidia since AMD secured R&D earlier.
That will push future breakthroughs over Nvidias downsized Maxwell chip AKA Pascal.
>>337915686
to keep the reference design around longer so it can compete with aftermarket coolers
>>337915315
Considering I have a shit ton of games on Steam that are dated prior to 2012 and I need an upgrade soon (Radeon 5450 HD wooohoo), is the investment worth it?
>>337915315
>buying nvidia cards after all the shit they've pulled
It perform better, but nothing impressive.
Around 30% better than 980ti on average, but
>stock clock is 1.6mghz
>barely any overclock headroom
>80c ~ 85c on load
So the rumour that saying it perform worse than 980ti clock per clock is accurate.
>>337915315
>there are people that are gonna buy refrence cards at release date
>>337915315
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cLYn937ZFE
Yeah, nvidia lobbies are hard at work.
Gotta quickly sell that overpriced shit because a $400 console is about to play 4K.
I don't have $600 to blow on a video card, so I'm going to wait and see if the 1070 isn't misrepresented in regards to memory, and has proper build quality, unlike the previous generation's more affordable option.
>Rehashed Maxwell chips
Boring
Wait for next year when the real next gen leap happens with HBM2, VR and games will take full advatange of it especially with DX12 and Vulkan APIs.
bwahahaha
> 4fps over Fury X on DX12
> F O U R
Protip: Pascal is nothing more than Maxwell with a new coat of paint. Wait for Volta or whatever AMD is making.
>>337915315
I'll wait for the non reference 1070.
So what free game do I get for buying it?
>>337916067
>>337916113
Unfortunatly I would of been more sympathetic to AMDs plight if I didn't have a bad history with their cards. Probably due to bad luck, but their shit never lasted more than a year and half for me, with the last time I got one whirring like an apache chopper.
As of now AMD use using the marketing term potential since there hasn't been a stellar product for a while, there's always been a draw for their best selling cards. Noise pollution the biggest grievance for me.
>>337916496
DX12 is a meme desu
Founder edition have shitty cooler, stay the fuck away from it unless you guys are a huge Nvidiafags who line up Titans on their shelf.
>>337916496
DELETE THIS
1080ti it is then
>>337915315
Speaking of shit cards, I have a 7850 that is in dire need of replacing.
I was thinking of going with the 380, but it seems the card is garbage. What card should I get for around $300 dollars? I can go up a bit more if needed.
So should I throw my 980ti or not
kek
inb4 b-b-bbut what about 99th percentile frame? minimumf rame?
>people fell for the Titan X meme
Yeah, I think I'll stick with my 980ti for the time being.
>>337916548
>xx70

>>337916538
Protip: Volta is nothing more than Pascal with a new coat of paint. Wait for the next architecture.
Also
>AMD
>>337916650
oh tell me what is the next API standard then? Vulkan? OpenGL?
>more than twice the frames of a r9 390 in witcher 3
RIP amd
>>337916705
Wait a couple of month for Polaris, and grab 1070 when Nvidia were forced to cut the price for it.
>>337916496
NVIDIA ALWAYS WINS
Thank fuck i only fell for the 3.5 meme
About 6 months ago I upgraded and was about to pay 900 AUD for a 980ti
How well does the 1080 run Uncharted 4 and Bloodborne?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXhHivCLBwc\
AMD on complete suicide watch
>>337915315
ah good the shilling campaign has begun
Now let's just wait what AMD brings to the table and get whatever is the best for my budget.
>tfw gtx570
The upgrade will be staggering desu.
What's the point of these new cards? Every game runs at 60+ FPS maxed out with a 970 unless you're trying to play at a meme 4K resolution
>>337916726
im an amd guy and even i know that games biased. post something on a resolution and game most people use and play
>>337916906
I ran both with my 770 just fine on youtube.
so, thinking about getting the 1070 when it comes out, but here in slavland it'll probably cost around 700 euros, and i was wondering how much would it cost me to ship it from america plus tax and shit, seeing how it will cost 300 and something in america but a hige fucking price jump here.
>>337916906
Silky smooth 30fps using the YouTube emulator.
>>337917000
I want a card for VR and I want to use a 1440p 144Hz monitor.
Why don't they use games that will really see big jumps, like fucking Arma 3 instead of DOOM ?
>>337917038
wait a year and get something cheaper
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZG54Da2pMM
Turns out Nvidia wasn't lying.
>>337917038
probably about 700
>>337916906
How well does the PS4 run XCOM 2 and Star Citizen?
>>337917068

So i'm my PC today and settled with a 970 should I even bother with the 1080? I'm only going to be playing on 1920×1080 anyway
>>337917149
Bruh, I have a 780 and Star Citizen runs like shit on my pc
>>337916906
Not running it at all is still better than 10 fps with 10+ minutes long load times.
>>337916812
Vulkan and DX11/13
Don't you remember the fate is Vista exclusive DX10? No one fucking used it.
>>337917136
They actually lied about the temps tho.
>>337917236
And over 98% of your steam games don't need a GTX 1080 to do 1440p@144hz
>>337917251
>and settled with a 970
Already outdated, shitty fps in new games, wait for 1070.
>>337917251
Are you happy with your performance?
>Yes
Don't upgrade
>No
Upgrade
Odds are a GTX970 is plenty enough for 1080p 60 fps
>>337917265
Star Citizen runs like shit on every PC. It's a tech demo designed to sell more virtual spaceships for a game that will never actually release.
>>337917148
>angry green frog with a red hue all over that jpeg.png
>>337917265
Depends. The Universe bits run okayish (but I have an i7 6700k) on a gtx 570 but yeah I'm bottlenecked by my GPU.
its melting
>>337917338
Yeah but VR certainly will. If the 1070 is good enough I might settle for that or whatever AMD's high end card will be.
Also I haven't upgraded since I got my GTX570 so I'm definitely getting a good card this year.
>85 degrees Celsius while gaming
Jesus fuck this is a housefire card, keep in mind that this is AFTER a die shrink too.
>>337917012
Ashes of Singularity is not an AMD title
Dx12 will be the next API standard just as Dx11 has been
>that most people play
what is this? 2014?
we're taking a step into the future, not looking back
this card are new and meant to be the stepping stone for the upcoming releases of Dx12 games
the only thing that you're doing is proving how good Pascal is over Maxwell and how Nvidia handles Dx11 features better, which is exactly what is supposed to do
>>337917343
Friend of mine was getting 60fps on overwatch (not implying its super demanding but its not bad looking either)
>>337917265
kek >buying into the vaporware meme
m8 by the time that shit is finished youll be using a 7778000 card
>>337917251
You'll probably be alright, but you should have waited for the price to adjust after the 1080/1070 come out. Also, you probably should have waited for the 1070.
AMDfags literally on suicide watch
>>337917449

What's the cost difference?
>>337916431
>a $400 console is about to play 4K
>implications
>>337917529
A die shrink means the heat is spread over a smaller surface so it offsets quite a bit the expected heat tradeoff.
Gonna sell my r9 390 and get 1070.
>>337917449
Why crop the picture?
>>337917449
wasn't the whole deal with this one that it was supposed to use less power and produce less heat?
>>337917538
i dont think dx12 will be in most games by the time the next set of cards is out.
dx12, 4k, vr are all still memes. by the time the net lot rolls around they might be the standard but ill wait
>>337917449
IT'S FERMI ALL OVER AGAIN

>>337916431
Play 4K netflix movies maybe
Waiting for reviews of the 1070.
If it's a card that will get me consistent 60fps at max settings 1080p for at least the next 3-4 years I'm in.I also want to get rid of this damn 970, there are so many issues with this damn thing.

>Reference card
AMDkeks aren't too bright
Who the fuck is actually going to buy a rehashed GTX 980?
>>337917298
and what makes you think Dx12 will fail?
you do realize both Win7 and Dx11 were meant to REPLACE Vista and Dx10 right?
Win7 and Dx11 were not simply successors, but they are replacement to fix the previous el ebin failure
If anything, Dx13 will only improve on Dx12 and what will that prove?
That Maxwell and Pascal is still shitty? You'll have to wait for the newxt generation of Dx13 cards?
While Polaris would probably age better throughout the years? Handling both Dx12 and Dx13 fine?
That will only add insult to the injury we know as the Gimpworks.
I never understood why people want to drop £900 on a single component, especially considering graphics hasn't advanced at all in this generation.
My friend only plays Rust and Gmod, yet when this card was announced he now wants to get rid of his 980 to purchase one.
>>337916609
I had similar noise issues with my old AMD card, the issue is caused by the lubricating oil in the fan drying up.
What card did you own?
>>337917626
Fury x is $ 470
Nvidia is $600
>>337917995
Now post power consumption.
>>337917907
m is mili, M is Mega.
>>337917863
I don't have a GPU to put in my computer in the meantime, and my work laptop is too shit for anything but word documents. I'll sell it when I have the money for the rest, which will likely be when 3rd party designs start coming out.
>>337917897
I won't lie, the 970 is a good card. But damn, the niggling problems and that VRAM issue makes things so annoying. I'll be upgrading to a 1070 then an i7 4770k from my current 4690k, then I'll be set for a few years until VR and 4K become the norm.
>>337916097

>>337917449
AMD fags literally have nothing now
>>337916113
Yea better buy a AMD card and run at 99c and with 40 fps in new games because all games are optimized for Nvidia
>>337918189
Are you afraid of posting them? I understand why.
You need minimum 750w for any amd card.
>>337916496
And what about the other games? did you miss the 33fps extra on BF4
>>337918027
Except when Win 7 and Dx11 were the new hotness, DX11 was still compatible with Vista; not quite the same situation.
>>337918101
m is the si abbreviation for million. Giga is the unit modifier, not m. Git gud, tim. Beside,
>1.6*10^{-6} GHz
I still don't think so tim.
>>337917626
Is it worth to jump over it now?
Nah.
>>337918291
I didn't post that but m is mili, 10^-3 you mongoloid.
10 mL is 10 mililiter, 10mW is NOT 10MW.
according to /g/ and tech sites, these new Nvidia cards are just overclocked Maxwells with a higher price point and smaller die.
Anyone who upgrades from their 970 or 980 to this is retarded as hell.
>>337916609
Not him but I've had massive bad luck with Nvidia, then after jumping on AMD nothing but good things. Not even any driver issues.
The one thing I miss though is Nvidia Inspector. RadeonPro is fucking dead and I'm really starting to miss all those tweaks. I'll probably come back around to Nvidia in the future, but I'm pretty comfy with my 290 at the moment.

>They're just the previous gens but with a smaller manufacturing process, less power consumption and better performance
So they're not the previous gen at all?
>>337918396
depends on case, room temp, etc of course they won't all be the same
I still don't know what DX12 does that 11 doesn't
I just heard it released but didn't see anything like the difference between 10 and 11
>>337918357
Milli is the SI for 10^{-6} and there's no such thing as e.g. a millimega or a nanogiga because a modifier can't modify a modifier. Go be inbred somewhere else, totally-not-tim.
>>337915315
>ever doubting nvidia
that was your only mistake op. We can forgive you for that.
>>337918435
The performance increase is small in real world scenarios and the less power consumption is barely noticeable. It's like comparing 290 to a 390 with these new Nvidia cards.
>>337918396
Lots of variables involved like ambient temp in the room. Also, they're using a Palit aftermarket card, you might not be.
>>337918113
Probably will do the same for my GPU but I got to make sure I got the cash to spare first. Third world currencies grossly inflates the cost of new cards.
i5 is probably good to go for a long time to come though. I don't care too much about VR so a 1070 needs to be a purchase that will go the distance with a vanilla setup.
>>337918386
Says the guy who follows AMD blindly
hello mr sheep enjoying your 50 fps in dark souls 3 ultra?
>>337918269
Nah, its just that fucking nobody uses an oscilloscope so none of the power draw figures are correct
>>337918495
>gigamegahertz is legit but your miligigahertz isn't
Okay so a modifier cannot modify a modifier unless it's in your post, gotcha.
Also the SI for 10^-6 is µ you retard.
>>337917449
the meme never dies
>>337916063

>>337918242
>>337918535
One of the reviews compared an overclocked 1080 to an overclocked 980 Ti and the 980 Ti actually made up ground on it due to having more shaders. Pascal is nothing but Maxwell on a smaller process at higher clocks. Which I guess is fine if the performance is there, but the price they're charging for it is gross.
>>337918495
>>Milli is the SI for 10^{-6}

>>337917670
We have to start somewhere don't we?
Pascal and Polaris are supposed to pioneer the move from Dx11 to Dx12 .
We're much likely to see Dx12 as the mainstream standard than Vulkan, it's more feasible.
Compared to Dx11, we've seen 50% loss of framerates on Vulkan.

Why are PC hardware threads on /v/ always filled with people who don't know shit at all about hardware? I mean god damn it's like dumb console players just recently switch to PC gaming or something.
We can all agree both AMD and nvidia are shit though
>>337919109
yes
>>337917782
>>337918273
do you even get the memo?
we're talking Dx12 improvement, NOT looking back on games released in the past 3 years.
Both Pascal and Polaris promises die shrinkage, 2x the performance over last gen, on 1/2 the power draw, FinFet design, new VRAM chip design and improved API handling, which includes Dx12.

What's wrong with your 970?
>>337919108
I don't care, let idiots be idiots. Let them sell their GTX 980tis for the same price as a 970 so they can "upgrade" to a 1080z
>>337919109
Yes
>tfw based intel will never make dedicated graphics
>>337919108
no shit, dont you remember all the 'hey guys i just joined the PC master race' threads?
>>337919278
Actually going to keep the old card and put it into another pc.
Have fun with that AMD card
Currently have a 760, thinking about upgrading.
Would a 1070 be more worthwhile than a 1080?
>>337916346
There are people here who have used the same GPU for over 5 years, and can drop $600 on a 1080, which will easily last close to a decade for 1080p gaming.
The price point for the 1080 on release makes it the top value priced card by miles.
>>337919265
I'm incredibly sensitive to stuttering and in many games it's really, really terrible. I had to lock TW3 to 30fps because the stuttering was so bad at 60 on anything but the lowest possible settings.
It's why I'm also getting an i7 since that seems to reduce stuttering in quite a few games.
But how about the GTX 1070?
>>337919263
Guess I will just hold out 2 years until the next GPU generation comes. The 980 can't be that bad, right?Right?
Is SLI still shit? Microstutter issues? No support?
Still on 770 and it's enough for me.
Won't be updating unless it breaks or until we get HBM.
>>337919438
What's your 970 brand? And did you get any stuttering in DS3?
>>337919425
1070 is far better price/performance. For another 200 dollars the difference will be negligible
>>337918484
It's mostly low level performance stuff. You won't see it really increasing frame-rate if you're already running a game well, but it can be useful in avoiding cpu bottlenecks. So the same max frame-rate, but usually much better minimum frame-rate resulting in a higher average.
That said, cpu bottlenecks are almost always a sign of a poorly made game.
>>337919450
It will be the same situation as getting a 970 over a 980ti. The 980ti is massively a better value buy than a 970, but still very expensive comparatively.
>>337919547
MSI, and only got stuttering in DS3 when it autosaved which I can handle. TW3 and GTAV are the absolute worst examples.
R9 390 is still the best card

>The price point for the 1080 on release makes it the top value priced card by miles.
Not really accodring to this chart >>337918293
And this is based on the $599 msrp stated by Nvidia, which I doubt most of their partner would try to follow.
>>337918281
that only proved my point even more
Dx10 failed to deliver what it promised to do, and Dx11 fixed that, and even rought new tech like Tesselation.
Sure we can't tell if Dx12 is going to succeed or fail, but we've already seen massive improvement over the countless demo and released games.
Don't blame Dx12 if the games / devs are at fault.
Don't put the blame on Dx12 if your card is the one at fault.

1070 is what I'm really interested in. Playing at 1080/60 High/Ultra with a 960, hoping I can transition to 1440p/120hz with a 1070. Have we seen benchmarks for it yet?

it will have 7.5GB of vram
>>337919689
On the other hand, it's AMD so it's going to be shit in actual games.
>>337918358
It's okay Polaris is still the same architecture as the 5xxx series, just on a smaller die and severely overclocked.

As someone who owned a 480, that shit is nothing
The 480 would get up to 90c+ playing fucking TF2
>>337919737
DX10 not delivering on promises is not the reason it failed. It failed due to lack of support because no dev/publisher in their right mind would needlessly alienate their XP using customers. Mark my words, Vulkan will prevail.
Look
Im buying my first Graphics card
What should I get, 980, 980 Titan, 1070, 1080?

>>337920039
Buy a 1080 bro it's the absolute best it got a 100/100 score you can't go wrong it's Nvidia
I've got dual 980s in SLI. I'm also getting a Vive. Is there any reason for me to switch to the 1080?

I've actually only ever owned AMD cards and I'll be glad to get rid of this one because pretty much any time I've bought a new game on release, it's had shit performance compared to similar Nvidia cards.
>>337920039
Why don't you tell us your resolution and FPS target you sperg
>>337916609
I've a HD7850 for at least 4 years now, and it's done nothing but excel at running the games it can run. It chugs on newer stuff but that's to be expected, it was mid-high when I got it towards the end of it's lifespan in the tech industry, but even after gathering dust for months it still works perfectly after booting it up and blowing some dust out. Never suffered heat problems, driver crashes or anything else like that either.
Should I sell of my gtx 970 for a 1070?
>>337916783
55% of the price for 80% of the performance. Going with the biggest card is always a mediocre investment
not him but in my case I have a 1080p 60hz monitor anyway. basically zero reason to go with the bigger card.
How often do graphics cards come out? I'm using a 7870 and it clearly struggles with the big games. Quantum Break was unplayable even while looking worse than World of Warcraft vanilla on low and 720p.
But considering I don't really play much of those games, I feel like I could wait a dozen or so months
>>337920241
funny, I can say the same for Nvidia. My 970 has always been performing worse than the 290 in non Gameworks games and on top of that I've had loads of issues ranging from coil whine, driver crashes to desktop, and that 3.5GB performance degradation issue.
>>337918632
He's talking about third party versions. Like MSI or ASUS.
>>337920319
no.
>>337915315
who cares?
a powerful graphics card does not make good games
>>337920334
Don't blame your 7870; Quantum is an awful excuse for a port.
>>337920241
AMD matches the power of nvidia, but their build quality is utter shit. It's why they sell at a cheaper price. AMD runs hotter and louder, which ultimately results in worse GPU than nvidia equivalents.
How any of these AMD shills can see AMD constantly offering similar power cards at a lower price point, yet AMD never trumps nvidia, and they don't connect the dots that there's more to a GPU than power, is beyond me. They're fucking idiots.
I have an R9 290X
How do I make it less INCREDIBLY FUCKING JET-ENGINE LOUD when it's running under stress? It also claims to be running at 89 degrees, but seems to heat up the entire case to that temperature.
>>337919939
nigger my 470 went sometimes to 110c
>>337917538
>Ashes of Singularity is not an AMD title
Funny fucking joke.
Not that Im just assuming nvidia has dx12 locked down, but we need more actual fucking games to decide that. bad time to buy a card right now in general, even the shiny new ones.
Seems to be performing as expected.
No reason for me to upgrade from my 980 Ti.
>>337920196
Cool, didn't think so. Thanks, bro.
>>337920516
AMD actually has better hardware design than Nvidia. Nvidia has the better software support though.
>>337920334
Wait for Vega~
Wait for Zen~
Keep waiting, never buy anything~
>>337920517
>How do I make it less INCREDIBLY FUCKING JET-ENGINE LOUD when it's running under stress?
buy nvidia next time you pleb
>>337920517
Get a decent case with sound dampening.
>>337920672
I was memed into AMD by /g/ and a website sale
>>337920567
It's actually a good time to buy a card now since retards are selling off their barely 1 year old graphics cards for steal prices to get the shiny new expensive cards that are 10-15% more powerful than their current card.
>>337920515
It's still a pretty old card.
Bioshock Infinite couldn't keep up the 60fps on max, and that's not a very intensive game.
GTA V made me do some heavy option tweaking.
Dark Souls III worked perfectly, but of course it will considering it's running with the exact same settings as the PS4
>>337920517
you literally cant. its meant for max watts, max heat, max loud but max performance. they squeezed everything they could out of it
you could underclock it
>>337920728
Which 290x did you buy?
I seriously fucking hope its not the goddam reference.
>>337920039
360 > 750ti
skip 950 > 370
380 > 960
skip 380x
390 > 970
skip 980, 390x, 980ti, fury/x , titan x
get the new 1070 / 1080
the equivalent AMD will only come out earliest October this year or March of next year
you could skip 380 / 390 and just get the new $200 480, which would be close to the 390 or 980
Polaris 470, 480 are mid-end / mainstream card that will come out the same time as the higher end 1070 / 1080
>>337920174
Im the kind of guy who likes to keep my graphics at the say level 4 of 5 but will turn shadows off because I prefure Silky smooth over graphical fluff
>>337920281
I dont even have a monitor for this shit yet so its up to interpretation
>>337920640
So AMD aren't releasing HBM2 until Vega either?
Fuck this shit, there wont be any of these cards available for like 2 months after release, will there?
>>337916496

okay buddy you can stop projecting now
>just bought 970 like 3 weeks ago.
welp.
>he sold his 980ti for this
>>337920130
Single card is more efficient
Stabler frames
Works on every game / no need for SLI profile
The 1080 is pretty much 2x 980s anyway
>>337920640
Remember when the Fury was going to wipe the floor with the Titan?
Yeah, I'm going to nvidia.
>>337920039
If you don't have more than 1080p 60hz monitor get the 1070.
>>337920861
After the whole 3.5GB mess with the 970 I wouldn't buy one for months after release anyway.
>>337916906
What kind of a retard enjoys artificial scarcity?
They'd run stellar if they were on PC.
>>337921000
The fury was never supposed to go against the Titan retard
>>337920783
I would underclock it, I had it underclocked for a while, but D44M absolutely dies at anything less than maximum.
>>337920813
I think it was the Gigabyte one.

>>337920516
Every thread I go into people bring out the usual GOY memes, etc. when talking about nvidia
Theres no reason to have bought amd unless you were in a deadly strict budget. more power, shit overclocking, hotter temps at idle and load, louder, came with lamer free games, gets worse driver attention, and runs gameworks badly but thats usually minor shit nvidia wants included in max settings for benchmark's sake so it doesnt matter.
when there was a problem with a game on my amd graphics it was a crapshoot whether it would be addressed, if known. nvidia has fucking 80% marketshare, if you have an issue with a green card youll have an army bitching about it.
>>337920827
*close to the 390x or 980
>>337915315
>AMD's face when
>>337921139
Nvidias market share has been dropping steadily since last year dude
I'm going to sell my 390 and wait for the custom 1080
Reminder that Polaris will be unremarkable. And the drivers unusable at launch.
>>337916496

>Shadows Off
what
shadows aren't usually that demanding anymore like how they used to be
Just drop Shadows to Medium oruse Soft-Shadows (as in GTA V)
And use low AAs like FXAA or SMAA over the crazy MSAA
SSAO or whatever instead of HBAO
As long as you got a 380 card you should be able to play on mostly High / 60fps on 1080p
Or mostly Ultra on a 390 card
New lineups offer close to twice perf. at the same price so wait for the 1070

>>337921070
Then why before its release did AMD and fanboys market it and saying it's gonna be better than the titan.
God you fucks with sort term memories, no wonder you keep believing the same fucking bullshit they spout.
So far I had
GeForce2 -> FX5200 -> 8800GTS -> 560Ti -> 770GTX
I guess going by the same principle I'll wait for at least the next iteration to upgrade.
>>337921735
AMD never marketed it as a Titan killer. Fanboys are retarded, more news at eleven.
You spend way too much time on this website
>mfw seeing that Ashes of the Singularity benchmark.

guys I need help
I'm going to Best Buy to get a new PC for gaming since ps4 and Xbone sucks, what type of graphics card and CPU should I look for? I'm looking to spend no more than $1400
Well, that was underwhelming.
Here's hoping Polaris won't disappoint.
>>337922060
Woah woah
What? The fucks a reference card? Like a first model?
>>337922180
>I'm going to Best Buy....
please explore your options, best buy has shit parts and high prices. I dont think their stores sell actual cpus. and they have one good prebuilt, and thats by prebuilt standards. best buy bad, dude.
>>337922069
The fury x is an older gen card, and the 1080 is not released yet.
Stupid comparison
>have some kind of GTX 660 because it was cheap as FUCK
>never notice drops in any game I've played
>don't care/want 4k or VR

>>337922180
i5. gtx 970
>>337921602
>cheapest fury x is $650 and 1080 is $600
Not that anon, but I doubt you can find $599 GTX1080 on the market even after the third party start releasing their own version of the card.
Pic related is what you will get if you want to pay the msrp price for the GTX1080.
Also, comparing it with Fury X price point is as retarded as comparing this GPU to Titan X price point.
Fury X is a water cooled GPU with exclusive HBM memory and even if you compare it to the other Fiji counter part it have shity performance per dollar.
>>337922275
Its the "official" model and cooler design by nividia/amd.
They are most often worse than aftermarket designs
>>337922275
reference cards are the original card made by amd/nvidia. they use blower coolers and are generally worse than ones made by the aftermarket companies.
nvidia is urging people to buy reference cards so I dunno whats going on this time but wait.
It's over, AMD's Finished.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXhHivCLBwc
>>337922275
Yes. After a short period, companies like EVGA, MSI Gigabyte etc get theirhands on them and produce cards with better cooling and default clock speeds
>>337922327
Because they play on higher settings than you do. A 660 wouldn't even keep me happy during emulation.
>bought a gtx 970 4 months ago

>>337922516
Get in early, wait forever, or don't give a fuck.
>>337922607
yeah
All I ask for is a 1440p/4k benchmark that doesn't also use redundant and intensive shit like MSAA.
Rendered AA at those resolutions is a meme
>>337922481
They will also ditch nvidia single 8pin power and opt to add more juice to it.
Right now GTX1080 is squeezing everything it canout of that single connector.
Also, expect the price for these GPUs to be hovering around $700 mark.
So when are those cards coming out?
>>337922424
SILKY SMOOTH 32 FPS
So we have an accurate UK price yet?
I have £700+ coming in next month so I am tempted in getting the 1080.
>>337922746
I doubt it's gonna be more than around $600, so you're good

>FX5200
>>337922481
>>337922419

Well how long will this take?
This shit is getting to complex
>>337920839
>Not buying a cooler
Damn son, you done goof'd
I think we are all losing the big picture here. This card is primarily coming out for VR stuff, of which there is very little at the moment. I don't need the power that this card offers to play hearthstone.
>Buy a GTX 1080
>Only play upscaled PS4 games and MOBAs like Overwatch and Dota
>>337922845
$ != £ though.
UK and EU always get fucked on the price for GPUs.
>>337922921
Why get a cooler
My cpu never goes above 50c with the fan that came with it
>>337922862
A whole month from now.
Most of the third party will launch their version of these GPU in computex end of this month and you can expect the shipment around a week or two afterward.
'Founder' edition of GTX1080 will be shipped 3 days before Computex.
>all this excitement and discussion for a card when the PC has no exclusives to take advantage of it in the first place
Gaming is a fucking retarded hobby, and you're all incredibly pathetic faggots.
>>337922862
Essentially. You'll need to wait around 3-4 months or so.
>>337915686
The Founders model is the one that Nvidia makes with the fancy cooler aka the reference model. The third-party models will start $100 cheaper but they won't be able to use that Nvidia cooler. My advice is to just go for the cheapest third-party model you can find that comes from a reputable company, don't get suckered into buying the "Founder's Edition." It has the exact same performance, just a "prettier" cooler.
>>337922985
That CPU doesn't include a fan in the box.
You have to get your own
>>337922637
I actually am. It doesn't even bother me what fuckhuge settings the game is on as long as it runs smooth.
>>337922926
These cards aren't even for VR, they are rehashed Maxwell cards with slightly higher clocks and lower temperatures.
The VR aimed cards aren't due until next year when HBM2 becomes commercially available. You need a lot of memory bandwidth for VR and HBM2 is a big step up in that department compared to GDDR5X
>>337921968
Don't get a reference model. This usually will come out first and people will flock out to buy 'em coz they're usually <$50 cheaper.
Get the ones with aftermarket cooler. EVGA are good, or get the usual Asus / Msi / Gigaybite.
It's advisable to wait a month or 2 more, just so more people and more 'gurus' can psuh the shit out of new releases and hope they don't break apart or find some el ebin 7.5GB VRAM failure.
If you're only playing Overgay just stick with whatever you got.. getting 1070 just over Gaywatch is overkill tho.
>>337923000
>console-only tards using the exclusivity line
Exclusives are not the draw here
>>337922857
I know. I still can't get over it. Had to suffer with it for 3 years before I could afford to get a new one but as a 13 years old kid I haven't really had much choice other than buy the cheapest card.
>>337915914
>Now, we just need games that will make the most of it. Does PC have anything good?
Total Warhammer and Witcher 3 expansion are the only ones on the horizon.
>>337922973
Huh, is it really that more expensive in EU? I thought it's like 5-10% at most.
>>337915914
Undertale, Stardew Valley, Rabi Ribi, there's plenty of games!
>mfw theres still no vulkan or DX12 games to really test these new cards on
Whats the point of brute forcing a bunch of 3-4 year old games on a 8 year old api?
Also all of these cpu bottlenecks most of the test bench systems are CRAP
i wunna see some benches on 8 core xeons and newer intels
>>337923000
Exclusives havent mattered in a long time since almost every game is multiaplat to pc
>buying 1080 only for gaming
waste of space
>look at out 700$ gpu!
everybody go home
>>337922275
Reference cards are usually the cheapest and released earliest.
Enthusiasts would still get them just because they can be the early bird.
Plus they're cheaper, and aftermarket Watercooler blocks will come out soon after, and they'll just slap those block on it.
If you're a normie, get aftermarket design.

Alot of the time we see $600 and expect it too be £515ish, forgetting to add Tax.

No idea what America adds to the price though, but prices are usually around the same.

So how long does it take for third party cards to come out after reference?
>>337916067
Feel free to post sources
>>337924526
It's a benchmark not an engine test faggot.
It's meant as comparison to other cards, not for letting you know how the game will run.
>>337915315
>he bought a 970 in the past 6 months
>>337924857
it'll last me another two years r-right?
>>337924446
Probably just 1920 x 1080
So 4k at decent framerate is achievable now, this makes a 1080p fag like me interested in 4k, does it look really good gaming on 4k?
>>337924912
Try another 6 months after Nvidia gimps it through driver updates to force people to upgrade.
>b-but then I'll just never update my drivers!
Enjoy your new games crashing
>>337920956
So, its not a bad card.
>>337924918
If you're planning on getting a stop-gap you plan on selling in a few months, grab a 750ti, or a 960. Might as well get it used too if you don't plan to hold on to it long.
Waiting 2 more years for a new card.
No point in upgrading with nothing to play.
Vega pls come save us from these jews
>>337925005
This. New cards are still expensive as fuck, so unless you're willing to shill out for them might as well get the 970.
>>337925075
>Pre owned
Sure if you want to get a hot glued one
Why does every gpu thread on /v/ and /g/ turn into a cherry picking contest?
But can it run Crysis?
>>337924526
>max clock speed - ~1.9GHz
>actual clock speed in games is 100-300Mhz lower
>pay $100 extra for a shitty edition that doesn't even reach its advertised potential.
Nvikeks will eat this shit up guaranteed.
But hey, at least it makes the way for 1080Ti real easy as all Nvidia has to do is slap a better cooler on it and overclock the gpu.
>wird oft zu farm
kek
>>337923664
I have a 670 and it's a great card. Don't know if I should get the 1080 or wait 9 months for the 1080ti.
>>337924929
4K gaming is overrated. Not many games support it natively so you end up with ant sized HUDs or overly stretched camera views. Also, you're forced to update every year to get decent framerates unless you drop the resolution which looks absolutely disgusting on a 4K monitor if you aren't running anything that is native resoluton.
>>337923056
>playing every game on low with 20fps @720p
You really don't belong here m8.
I really don't see how this is a must have upgrade if i'm still rocking 1080p.
>>337923284
>1440p
Why the fuck would you invest in a meme resolution?
>>337925074
>huurr ill shit post because I have no argument
Kill yourself, my man.
>>337915315
WHO the fuck needs a card this strong? Tell me 1 fucking game that warrants a powerful card like that, that my years old 670 cant play.
If youre still in 1080p, you simply dont need to upgrade.
Still skimming by on a 770. Consider upgrading but then, what is there to play really? Only thing I haven't been able to do at a decent framerate is play witcher with fancy hair.
>>337925404
4K isn't feasible for most people, 1080 is now the new 720. 1440p is the sweet spot.
>>337925489
>If youre still in 1080p
This isn't a card for people playing at 1080/60
>>337924385
Why would I want a 4k tv (monitors are exceedingly small) when consoles don't do 4k? The moment consoles do 'em I will be interested.
What... pc? Oh yeah I have a gaming pc, not worth it, which is why I mock this card, it can't do amazing things yet, it's not worth it, console players will buy a console for a few coins and 3 games to go along with it while you have to invest your whole subsitance money on a pc that can manage 14fps on a shitty port.
New nvidia cards are per definition 100/100, the bees knees, the gold standard etc. No surprise here.
>>337925489
Just you wait for the next big console port nvidia always finds a way.
Daily reminder Nvidia would have lost this race ages ago if it wasn't for jewish contracts with gamedevs to deny AMD any kind of early access.
>>337925432
>>337925528
why is Crysis 3 such a bitch to run? it doesn't even look that good.
>>337925537
1080p will stay the sweet spot until 4k becomes playable.
Should be around the time VR becomes relevant, so in 5 - 10 years.

Insane tessellation. Someone post the infograph
Is 1440p a meme?
>>337925537
Goof luck with your shit native support on anything lower than dx9
>the 384-bit memory bus of the Titan X and 980 Ti has been downgraded to the same 256-bit bus used by the GTX 980 and thus limited to a 320GB/s memory bandwidth.
why is nvidia so retarded? this is why my last nvidia card was a 580. they do stupid shit like this.
they could crush AMD so hard if they wanted to.
>>337925528
That's 1440p not 1080p
There's been some stuff about new drivers crippling old cards. I've a 970. I assume that's still fine to update drivers for at least for a while, right?
>>337915315
you have to be kidding me
are you telling me that the new nvidia card, that is overpriced as fuck, turns out the winner on every test? unbelievable
whats next? paid reviews? nah

>>337925537
>implying 1440p > 21:9
Pleb all of you.
>>337925706
Thats 4K plus 4XSMAA
even if the game doesnt look insanely good (which imo crysis 3 does), it will tax the shit out of any system.
>>337925763
>fuck year, the top end card can run a game that was released some time before the card even existed on the marked at buttery smooth 30fps!
>>337925763
>w10 meme
lol
>>337925694
More like we would've had much more advanced graphics cards if it wasn't for AMD not being able to keep up, making Nvidia rehash their shit instead of making leaps because they had no competition.
>>337925763
Quantum Break could probably run twice as good on a better Windows.
I still remember 8800gt days where everyone is trying to max games at 1080p, now people are benchmarking at 4k, I feel old
>>337925787
o god where is this webm from?
>>337925489
Me, so I can sit in my undercrackers and play Minesweeper or solitaire on glorious 1080p.
>>337916906
You'll know when you see the first demos of Uncharted 4's ps4k edition.
>>337925784
thats crysis 2
crysis 3 was unnecessary taxing on the cpu in the first more linear levels to promote multithreaded cpus because thats where the game would be benchmarked the most
>>337925984
Not really the fault of W10; it's just a lousy port either way and the semi-forced console parity with XBone isn't helping either

just read the update notes before you do, its pointless to keep updating unless there's some card-related change. Best case scenario it'll do nothing, worst case it'll fry your card because it slows your fan down (see AMD Crimson)
1440p is LITERALLY a meme resolution
>>337920840
amd will be the first to release hbm2 anyway
nvidia is allowed to only release their cards with hbm2 after amd, so they'll most likely wait for the time they can do the most damage and hurt nvidia
>>337926074
forgot pic
>>337925489
So true, my normie friends are all hyping and nerding the fuck out of this card when all they do are playing at 1080p
>>337926120
Not as much as a meme as 4K
>let me spend all this money to play at 60hz and have 90% of my games look worse than 1440p because 4K isn't natively supported
AMD ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>337926249
>4K isn't natively supported
what does this even mean? 99% of AAA games support 4K and 4K scales perfectly three times from 1080p.
>>337926372
4k means 4 times 1080p, the k stands for thousand
so it's 4x1920 and 4x1080 which is in the end 7680x4320
the 4320 is where the 4k comes from
You're wrong, retard.
>>337926372
Miniscule HUDs, ant sized subtitles, and in some games a non adjustable FoV.
Basically console ports and old games aren't optimized to run at 4K so it ends up being worse. What good is no jaggies when the camera is fucked and everything is small and can't be fixed.
>>337926640
Here, I'll spoonfeed you this one time:
4k because 3840 pixels
3840 pixels × 2160 lines
3840 x 2160
Whatever, doesn't seem like that big of a jump, I'll just wait for Vega and HBM2

any benchmark comparing to 980?
Quantum Break apparently can't run better on Windows, since it still runs poorly on Windows10.
Sam Lake/Remedy have just sort of given up desu. I think Alan Wake not even receiving any notice until they FINALLY put it on PC years later broke his spirit. But what they lose in sales they make up for in bribes from M$ for exclusivity contracts. MS is willing to throw a few expected low-performing, sacrificial lambs up as Windows10 App Store Exclusives to see if people will fall for the "upgrade" to the botnet meme....which apparently actually has a lot of shitty problems with most games thanks to the OS' programming being garbage.

I don't get this "AMD is bad" meme. I've been using their cards since they were still called ATi and I never had a problem with them.
I always bought their mid range cards like the Radeon 4870 or the Radeon 7870, never had issues with them.
Games run just as good as Nvidia unless you mean the Nvidia Gameworks exclusive stuff but most people I know even on the Nvidia side turn those off or play games that don't even have them.
>>337925808
Or they can milk the consumer now, and reimplement it in the inevitable 1080 Ti and milk the consumer again!
>>337918293
Speaking of that. My old 7870 just isn't cutting it anymore. I was thinking of dropping a load on a 390X considering how my budget is around $400 for this.
Would this be the best option or are there any alternatives?
>tell myself i'm going to upgrade finally

I just wanna play D44M at more than 30 fps
>>337927350

Honestly, the flop of the Fury X really shows that AMD cannot compete anymore. Everything since the 290X has been shit.
>>337927471
Not him, I bought my 4860 for $150, how much the 4870 was again?
$400?

>>337927350
If you're going the economical route for builds, you do Intel CPU and AMD GPU. The CPU is vital to have single thread performance because that's what a majority of games utilize, and that's what Intel does better than AMD undeniably.
AMD GPUs just have higher heat and a tad less power than their NVIDIA counterparts, but for a much better price.
>>337926640
It is 4 times 1080p but it's 4 times the amount of total pixels. One 1080p screen fits 4 times into a 4K screen.
That means two times wider and two times longer as in 3840*2160.
6/10 for the effort though

>better gpus for the money almost across the board
>eeh idk they just cant compete anymore mang

Battlefield 1
>>337927487
Fury X didn't flop, it's still the most powerful GPU for its small size. It was never supposed to go against cards twice its size like Titan or GTX 980ti.
>/g/ thread read the reviews and discuss how fail the 1080 up to hardware level.
>/v/ thread is bunch of kids spamming benchmark pics.
Which one should I trust?

I'm not spouting memes, I'm saying in general AMD GPUs have higher temps on average than NVIDIA GPUs.
Which is fact. One statistic doesn't change that.
>>337927931
Mutli-billion dollar designs for maximum cooling efficiency. Obviously useless shit.
>>337926640
Flawless math skills
>>337919778
Well if you double the ram on a 970 wouldn't you only get 7+1 GB of ram?
So according to pcper, Pascal cores have the exact same flops/clock as Maxwell. It's literally just a die shrink.
Man I badly need to upgrade because my 770 does not handle VR wel.
I guess I'll buy the 1070 and wait for the HBM2 cards to go full in then.
>>337927851

>>337919210
We are also talking about officially endorsed AMD game. I'm not willing to judge the DX12 performance of the GPU based on a game with an engine that was developed as a mantle benchmark from retarded studio that wasn't being able to optimize games for years.

Are there any fans on that? because even a couple of fans that cases come with would keep that down to 40

This is cool as shit, why is no one talking about this?
So if i'm still playing at 1080p just getting a 1070 in a year or two is probably the best course of action no?
I don't think i'm ever going to bother with 4k or VR.

So how long until we see the ASUS/MSI/EVGA/GIGABYTE versions? And will they be more or less expensive?
>>337929696
what is that supposed to prove?
The card in that picture is being stressed to 100% and yours is fucking idle.
>>337929696
Oh wait, it's 1% GPU use and 100% fan use
There's no way the fans would do that on these temps unless you do that intentionally. Who are you trying to fool here?

Somewhere between the base and Founders edition, I'd guess 3 months or less

>>337930146
What math? Just put any proper GPU benchmark and show us the stats again after few minutes of running it
Plus I assume your Titan has aftermarket cooler and everyone knows that stock Nvidia ones are shit. I don't have high hopes for founders cooler either
