Exactly. It was funny because the Indian brought it on himself like the Irishman who said "too much ass" about those women lined up along a fence and everyone called anyone who said anything about an ass being too big Irish.

But these faggots just won't quit. Calling a top of his field GPU developer a "pajeet" or "pooinloo" just isn't funny. It's just fucking retarded and you might as well be posted facebook frog and POOPOOPEEPEE for what you post is worth.

>>
>>54868671
Well the graph is bullshit mainly because it's comparing dual cards to a single one.
DX12 works much better with dual cards than dx11. Dual cards in dx11 games would not have the cards scale like that, it wouldn't be 2x performance of one card, it'd be 1.2x performance of one card, so in dx11 games the 1080 wins even in cost effectiveness.
And ashes is used because it's the only dx12 game.

If ashes is all you play then go for it.

Oh and mantle games of which there are significantly more than one game.

"AHHHH why are you using a $200 card>twice?? not fair"

DX12 works much better with dual cards than dx11.

>Stop using newer APIs!! I need my Crippppled DX11 Benchmarks to stay viable!!

Dual cards in dx11 games would not have the cards scale like that, it wouldn't be 2x performance of one card, it'd be 1.2x performance of one card, so in dx11 games the 1080 wins even in cost effectiveness

>Guys please, stop using APIs that are not catered to my single clock speed efficient card!! How dare you scale up at 2x for less money, we should all agree that Nvidia are better because they cost more!!

And ashes is used because it's the only dx12 game.

Protip: By the time DX12 games come out and are common, there will be one or two new generations of cards from both AMD and nvidia. When you buy a graphics card you are buying to play the games that are out right now and the ones that will be out before the next generation of cards.
Buy the best for the current games.

That might actually still be the 480 since it's very well priced, but you're not doing anyone any favors by being a rabid butthurt piece of shit
>>
>>54866370
Are you fucking kidding me? The whole fucking board was full of amdegenerates saying the 1080 is worse than the holocaust
>>
>>54868888
You have selective memory. That's okay, both set of fanboys do.
The truth is that there are simply more nvidia fanboys shitting everywhere because of marketshare. If your perception of who shits more contradicts the marketshare of the two camps then you should consider that your perception is wrong.
You don't understand though- the 1080 is better than the holocaust means that it's a really good card.
>>
>>54868865
Protip: If we only ever buy cards that are meant for NOW, and NOT for a couple years, then how come my 280x is still viable and is a refresh of a 5yo GPU??

Oh yeah forgot Nvidia users are used to yearly upgrades once the previous gen is cucked.

And I think it's a slip of communication personally, I don;t think Raja is saying, "here, 2 cards = better than 1 card" I think the fact he said "For $700, this is what you could have" and that's pointed out by the fact for $400-500 you can have two cards, that function as good, if not better than a 1080, for less.

Nvidia can have the High end in my opinion, it's a tiny market and they can charge a kidney, it's not "poorfag" it's common sense.
>>
>>54868937
>then how come my 280x is still viable and is a refresh of a 5yo GPU??

You really didn't hit anything, the fact you failed to grasp that the majority of buyers won't spend $700 on a card that can be attained by a CF 480 is proof enough that you don't live in the real world.

Throwing fanboy around is the get out card of /g/, I could right a blog on both card manufacturers doing shit that fucked users over, but /g/ is not for blogs, read around a bit on actual tech sites and see that while Nvidia has been crippling the market with DRM hardware and software and "the way it's meant to be played", AMD have gone the other way and forced new fair APIs, sorted there shit drivers out, and while I see VR as a gimmick, they have taken another gamble for US the Gamers/Enthusiasts/Shitposters whatever.
>>
>>54869006
I can't wait until you see the DX11 480 benchmarks and you start crying or whatever.
Better start preparing your excuses, like

>it's 2016
>why are you still playing dx11 games

or

>No-one cares about dx11 games

or

>still cheaper than the 1070

or

>who really needs more than 60fps anyway

or

>Turn down the settings, save $200


Okay my example excuses ended up becoming reasonable but that's the point, there are good reasons to get a 480 but ashes of the singularity is not one of them.
>>
>>54868997
Might as well not buy anything from Apple either, and Intel since some of Raja's expertise ended up in their iGPU's through IP
>>
>>54869043
I guess you missed the fact that many tech nuts speculate the 480 will be somewhere between the 970/980 in performance..... so even for DX11, it will still be viable.

And here's the thing most of /g/ misses, not everyone buys a new card every year.

If you are 7850 man, then for you to jump from that to a 1080 is a big cost, and brings big gains yes, but AMD offer another option of: Lower cost, and just below the BIGGEST gains, why not, for the same money, buy 2?

And even in the worst performing games on Crossfire, 1 card is akin to having a 390x according to specs and stuff, so for 1080/1440p this is far more than needed, hell even a 1080 is too much for 1080/1440.

There's more to GPU market than "buy the fastest, most powerful one there is"

We will have to wait for benchmarks, and if the 480 is total ass, then I'll give it another month for Vega to compete, but it's not looking likely to be anything more than a great Mid for single card or high fo x2 cards at this rate. I personally, do not want to be DRM locked into Nvidia ever again.

Stop spouting this bullshit. 150W are the absolute maximum power the Polaris cards can use. Their power consumption is more likely to be in the 100 - 110W ballpark.

Also, there is no Nvidia card that consumes only 150W and offers Titan X performance. Stop believing Nvidia's lies, you moron.

>>
>>54870193
AMD might be less efficient than Nvidia, but the gap is seriously insignificant now.

150w for the 480, 230w for the 1070.
>>
>>54870383
The gap was always insignificant.
At least until electricity stops being cheap. An extra 100 watts, assuming 4 hours of gaming a day, costs you $14-18 more a year in electricity. Doing the calculation with your own electricity rate (I did this with my rates) will verify this.

If you're spending more on a graphics card to save on watts, it'd best not be over $30 more.

Uh try a consistent 50+ fps with those games on max settings.

Games graphics have marginally improved over the past few years, so even if these new GPUs are that much better (they are probably only marginally too), then what's the point?

No reason why anyone should be paying more than 200 or 300 for a GPU in this day and age, unless they're doing professional rendering or some shit.

I know it is but that's just for the US. Different countries have different tariffs/import taxes/etc.

I'm looking forward, though all I know is that the RX 480 4/8gb will be up for sale on June 29th for $199 and $230 respectively.

E3 has big Vega afaik, little Vega I have no idea. Probably around next month like you say.

Then there's nothing until next year with Navi and the 1080ti going up against one another.

So the vega chip that's going to be released in August-September, the one that was supposedly delayed but no back on schedule, that's little vega? So this month is just the 480 being released?

>>
>>54875878
1070 could claw its way back to relevance if Nvidia slashes prices down to a reasonable level.

I think the $380/$450 non-ref/ref split was them trying to be able to shift downwards if AMD was aggressive and to gouge their customers if they didn't, but they were unprepared for AMD to go down to the $200/$230 level.

A 1070 at $300 would be something I would at least consider. $400 no way though.

please summarize this shit or at least give some context.
my 30 seconds of skimming and uninformed background makes this just sound like they are trying to do variable width wavefronts/warps to cut ALU processing waste.

how much does this improve over past GCN, and how much comparative advantage if any will it bring over what Nvidia is already doing?
>>
>>54878038
ok
till so far amd had a really big problem on dx11
the cores where just sitting doing nothing because of the card being highly paraller and dx11 being highly serial api

now this patent shows us that amd changed their core with power gating tech meaning that they will only activate the needed cores while powering down everything else that is not in use
that makes the base clock of any card with such a tech irrelevant because while you can see a 1GHZ let say those cores can be boosted for some ms to 2/2.5ghz while the rest of the card is sleeping thus creating the bigger than expected effiencency we saw(2.5x said glofo that their 14ff node gives amd said it has 2.8x)

nvidia currently doesnt have any flexibility on their cores pascal is just a maxwell on a die shrink and nothing more volta will be the one card that will actually be competitive on dx12
>>
>>54878132
what you say might all be true, but the patent linked to describes a GPU with multiple width SIMD subunits where different sized parallel workloads can be routed to in order to cut waste.

nothing about overclocking or power gating at all.

Right now a GCN CU looks like this

Do you see SIMD0, 1, 2 and 3? Each are separate SIMD units with a 16 lane vector ALU.

What the document you linked suggests is that RTG have changed the organization of these Vector ALUs so that they can match the incoming workload. Meaning that the Vector ALUs can automatically re-arrange themselves to suit incoming workloads and thus leave far less units idling (boost in efficiency)

overclocking=boost clock

Nowadays, how much could an used 280x be sold for?
>>
>>54879153
not much but it could still get you half of what you need for the 480

com'on son it's $200 just go mow like 1-2 lawns a week for a month and you'll be able to afford it by the time it's out.
>>
>>54879205
Yeah it's not expensive, I was just thinking of selling this to save some.

I just don't know when it's coming out so I don't want to go on with intel 4600hd for months. Also I'm very paranoid about that thing lacking support for like a full year on linux.

in my opinion they've gone for the wrong market at release. it's obviously great value for the performance its offering but i feel they have missed out on a great opportunity here. i mentioned it in another thread yesterday when i said that everyone i know have said they're going to be upgrading to the gtx 1070 even though they know of the 480x's low price and good performance and when asked why they all said that it looks like a weak offering for playing games at the highest settings. this is obviously understandable because most of them have 390/970 and by upgrading to a 480x they're getting marginally better performance so its not weird that they want that 980 ti (1070) performance as an upgrade, but whats funny is that even the people i've asked that are running pc's with 5 year old gpu's have all said they would rather get the 1070 over the radeon 400 series. what i'm trying to say is that amd have missed an opportunity to trump nvidia in a price/performance range that actually matter and sells the most. as we saw last gen the 390 and 970 were by far the best sellers and the most popular gpu's because of their fantastic price/performance. amd had the 380/x series which were superior to the gtx 960 but even that didn't give them a massive sales boost and had little to no impact on their market share.

to round off, i believe that nvidia have won in the price/performance bracket most people will be looking at and i get this feeling that we'll see another repeat of the 970 by which i mean the 1070 will become the most popular gpu with the most sales (and not the 3.5gb vram issue lol). amd really should have put out a competitor alongside their lower midrange 480/x cards.

remember this is just my personal opinion.

in my opinion, it's perfect. there is absolutely no con in recommending someone an amd card when the rx480 hits the market.

where as if you want better performance, the 1070 might have come down in price

Define decent.

150W TDP is the max the 6 pin + PCIE lane can output. The real card will only draw max of about 110-130w.
>>
>>54869565
An rx 480 is basically a gtx 980 while your card is weaker than the gtx 950 (which is stronger than a 580)

That is Polaris 11.
Its competing against the GTX 950 while drawing 50w. That puts it close to the Radeon R9 380 as well. Pretty solid for an entry level and mobile GPU.

> slot + 6pin + 8pin = 300W
> slot + 2x8pin = 357W

In actuality, no card pulls the full 75W off the slot since power draw fluctuates between frames a lot and it's not good for host system stability to have huge periodic swings.

A 6 pin card like the RX 480 will probably draw no more than 40W off the slot for a total around 115W.

The 1070 has 225W available like the 1080, but it seems to only use 130-140W in games.

you guys are praising something that's being market by the makers, while there's still no real benchmark, how much savage monkeys are you guys ?

first bring it to the arena, then we can discuss.
>>
>>54880991
Even if only 50% performance of 1080, it's 30% the cost so it's very worth it.

Current benchmarks put it on par with 390x, but drivers will need time to mature.
>>
>>54880911
the PCIe 6/8 pin supplemental power cables maybe, not from the slot, which frankly might melt under that much load.

Because we have seen some 3DMark benches. And it was running Doom maxed at capped 60FPS 1440p. Everything we seen so far hints on performance level of GTX 980. For 200$ its a steal.
>>
>>54881286
>>54880911
that's pretty spooky, but remember that where the card draws power from is entirely up to the AIB manufacturer and not the GPU, which doesn't care about anything other than its power pins being maintained at an adequate voltage.
>>
>>54881405
I've never seen an AMD card pull over 50w in reviews, from the pcie.

Not even the 295x2.

That's the only reason I'm sticking to AMD for now.

You guys know the 480 isn't going to be their only card, right?

Yes. What do you mean?

even though it's still a shitty card design, that's still extremely transient.

AMD will release other cards that compete more directly with the higher priced Nvidia cards. People are getting a little carried away with the comparison of unlike things.
>>
>>54881699
Other nvidia cards still do pull more than 75w, but nowhere near as much as asus.
>>
>>54881801
>will
And Nvidia will release even the titan and 1080ti to shit on them when they do.
>>
>>54881875
Funny how the 290x and 390 are beating the 780 ti now.
>>
>>54881911
Rebrandeon is still busy selling those cards and have driver optimizations for them. the 780ti has been grandfathered and doesn't have any performance enhancements due to architectural differences.
>>
>>54881875
so you admit that the 1080 is basically a product with a 6 month lifespan designed just to lighten the wallet of NVcucks by $700?
>>
>>54881929
Exactly.

I'd rather buy an AMD every 3-4 years instead an equally expensive nvidia every 2 years.

>>
>>54881932
>6 month lifespan
Nvidia also have the excellent option of cutting prices once these newer products come out.
Which they inevitably do.
Then you can crow about how you can get 2 1080s that shit on whatever the flagship AMDerp garbage is out ok?
>>
>>54881984
>Every 2 years
It uses far more power, and has terrible optimizations out of the box. Your 290x was at some point $800-$1000 in price so stop pretending that it's some sort of budget option. If you bought a GTX 680 your fucking card is so old the fans are probably dying. If you bought a r9 290x and used it heavily the fans and coolers are already probably dead.

Have fun hunting around for a cooler and installing it/pulling the card apart so you can 'have a longer lifespan' than intended.
>>
>>54882023
as bad a deal as the 980 ended up being, it at least was only $550.

the 1080 being $650-$700 is almost insulting knowing that Vega and GP102 will be out Q1'17.
>>
>>54882063
290X rapage was thanks to buttcoin miners, not AMD going full kike.

IIRC its release price was $550, same as the 980.
>>
>>54882096
So it's Nvidia's fault that AMD sold cards to buttcoin miners?
No, the effect is the same, stop pretending that AMD is always the cheaper option, market forces work for a reason.
>>
>>54882077
>knowing that it will come out
No, you don't know when things in the future are going to happen, You might get hit by a truck before this happens instead of enjoying superior graphics performance.
>>
>>54882142
AMD didn't raise the price, retailers did.
>>
>>54882209
>Retailers did,
AMD did NOTHING to alleviate the issue because they couldn't keep up with demand.
>>
>>54882241
If your product suddenly started selling faster than you could resupply it, would you stop it completely?

Look at it from a business perspective.
>>
>>54882465
Yeah so, $1000 cards.
>>
>>54882473
I paid $200 for my reference 290, slapped on the cooler from my old 5870, and I'm happy so far.
