>>55311370
>You can get a 970 for $250 that beats this shit.

>>55311370

>>55311393
There were more 480s than 1080s
this means AMD just sold thousands more than your shitty nvidia paper launch. kek

>>55311291
Because they most likely released a lemon and therefore put NDA on it until the very very last second?

>>55311397
Uhh it uses the same power and is even faster than a 480

There is literally no reason to buy a 480 if it's selling for $250

>>55311395
Classic AMD price inflation, remember this is only a reference who knows how high custom cooler prices go

let's hope

>>55311355
are you sure those stocks were ever up in the first place, or are those just placeholder pages and the actual launch didn't start yet?

All jokes aside, there are so many leaks showing the 480 being barely better than a 970 or 390. This can't be a coincidence. Amd either fucked up really fucking bad or we're missing something really obvious here.

Also about the pricing, why is it so absurdly high in Europe? I don't recall there being this much of a price difference between US and EU prices with the 390 or 970. There must have been some major hiccup with their sales team or something.

Scalpers are impressed from the 1070 1080 profits so they're making multiple accounts and buying all of the 480s because they don't really understand the tech behind it. I'm in a discord chat with like 20 of them and they're all talking about the 480 like they bought into bit coins at $10 it's fucking hilarious

Literally fuck off with that shit waste of money, Only poorfags would waste money on a shit card that barely performs at the same level as the r9 380

You should have gotten a real card that actually works, like the 1080, the MOST powerful card ever made. And fuck AMD, the only shit they have to try and compete is the fucking fury, which barely even comes close to the 1070 in terms of performance, OH and guess what, it's over five HUNDRED dollars, which is a fucking joke considering the 1070, which is better, only costs 375$, and performs better than three of these shit fucking poorfag 480's

This is sooooo good for my soul...

I told amd-fanboy that this amd isn't the holy grail. I told them they lie as much as nvidia.

I told them it will be more expensive in europe.

I told them it would not perform as good as initially speculated.

I told them it will be wise to wait until the market is more clear.

I told them not to believe in memes.

I told them... Next time they can suck my cock if they won't listen.

>purposely waiting to buy a cuck tier poorfag card

literally fuck off with this shit, the 1080 is the most powerful card literally ever made, and it would be a mistake not to buy it. Thanks to BASED Nvidia, you can get an unmatched power from a single card that outperforms any shit tier AMDrone cuck card, especially the fucking firehouse fury, and there's literally no excuse for not buying a superior Nvidia card. Also any jelly AMDrone cuck that tries to rebute this needs to fuck off, one: there's no argument for superiority, two: AYYMD opinion dis""Carded""... Also don't expect anything near as good from AMDrone, the 490x? more like the 490nothankyou

>inb4 muh powerdraw
>inb4 muh temps
>inb4 muh powerdraw

fuck off, there is nothing from with a 450 watt TPD, and 100C is a temp the card was tested to run at, so it literally doesn't fucking matter.

Is there a 4 GB version of the 480? I only see 8 GB versions all around. I want a 4 GB version.

Guess I'll just keep using my 1gb radeon 7850 lol

What the fr*ck? that escalated so fast

>the Radeon RX 480 is said to cause lots of artifacts with a mere 5% overclock. A 7% overclock will cause the system to freeze entirely. This means that a average overclock of 1350 MHz is possible with the Radeon RX 480 while anything near the 1400 MHz will crash the card. It could be due to thermal instability due to the cheaper cooler design which we had discussed here

Please don't do that AMD, not a Fury X 2.0....

Sapphire, powercolor pcs+ (that one specifically. The lower tier model has been known to be shit) and Msi are the only options. Xfx and Asus are the worst. Msi isn't much better.

buy one of those reference models immediately at launch, or wait for custom models and for how long?

Yeah dude it's so "mid range" that it's beaten by cards 2 years older than it. The point is that the card shouldn't fucking exist. It's a re-release of the fucking 970 at the SAME PRICE POINT, what is the FUCKING POINT of making a card like this? nearly identical price and identical performance. Nobody expected it to be a 1080 killer, but we expected it to be a 970 killer by offering the same performance for a much lower price. Couldn't even manage that.

Because the 970 was over $300 and when you say the 970 beats the 480 you mean the 970OC not the 970(because the 480 is faster than the stock 970). the 970OC was at $365 before the 480 came along so yea a 970OC for $200/$250 if fucking fine by me. This is what it takes for Nvida to drop prices.

It's solidly beaten by a 390 which is now selling at the exact same price ($250).

AMD can't even compete with their own previous gen cards, I don't understand why they would even release the 480.

>>55312083
ok
good to know

>>55312072
the rx480 is actually not available anywhere because of AMD's incompetence, so it doesn't have a real price at all right now, but the listed price of items that are IN STOCK right now is $239.00 at the least, which is $270 minus an oil change or a crappy restaurant dinner

Ok so thats the overclocked version...You will get the same performance from the reference 480. Best bet is to wait for the custom cooler versions, you should see better results from those.

>>55312162
if you just play at 1080p60 then the 480 will be enough.
if you want more in the near future id save a little more for the 1070.

MSI Lightning cards are the best money can buy, but for some reason they decided not to produce those cards for the GTX 900 and R9 300 series.

In the past Sapphire was always a shit to mid tier vendor, even though people seem to think they were #1 for some reason. Their quality has improved significantly from the R9 200 and GTX 900 series forward though.

>>55312364
No. 4gb is still perfectly fine. There are people who are still using older 2gb cards like the 750 ti and are running modern games like gta 5 just fine. Just because this one game (with bad reviews) has a setting that's specifically made for the new 1070 and 1080 and doesn't work on lesser cards, it doesn't mean those lesser cards are suddenly obsolete. The fact that the game goes from 7.5gb utilisation at hyper settings to ~3gb utilisation at ultra proves this. Also the 970 actually averages ~10% higher fps compared to the 390 at ultra settings according to the exact same digital foundry video. Don't base your opinions on one shitty game with absurd requirements for a single setting.

> unironcially recommending a 970

3.5gb and crippled dx12 support won't make this card survive the next 12 months.

>>55312418
>not getting the purpose of releasing a low end card at the same performance as a card $70 more

I'm a giant fucking idiot but I'm gonna ask anyway because I can't find anything online about it

I'm running a shitty GTX 750 with a 300W power supply. Sources say the RX 480 needs 150W

Does this mean I'll be able to use it with my current power supply or will I need to upgrade? Power consumption is never something I've had to worry about as the PSU that came with my shitty desktop before I upgraded has handled most things.

>>55312433
you can

>>55312409
Thing is it's not just Mirror's Edge. Doom has a Nightmare setting that locks out cards with 4GB VRAM. These games show a trend that's most definitely going to continue. Sure these cards work but it isn't senseable to buy a card that you know will have bottlenecks when there's alternatives that don't at the same price.

>>55312422
wanna bet?

kepler was abandoned because of how different maxwell is, pascal and maxwell are very similiar though.

with the 970/960 being the most popular cards on steam, and with the 970 probably being the most successful graphics card of all time, i highly doubt the developers would be retarded enough to gimp the performance for majority of users.

>>55312433
i definitely recommend upgrading your power supply to 450 watts or more eith bronze certification or better rn, because 300w is dangerous m8, especially without certification

>>55312444
both mirrors edge, doom and rise of the tomb raider require much more gpu power than a 480 or a 970 if you want to enable those settings regardless of vram

and yet a 970 it's 312€ in my country

>>55312652
I wish I was getting paid to talk about how shit the 480 is, would be the easiest job in the world

>>55312671
A stock 980 can't beat that 970

What you don't want your cards to be able to cook your dinner at the same time?

>>55312671

Plastic? What's that? I pay extra for coolers that actually perform.

>>55312524
No it's not, they used the non-Core

Jesus you amdtards can't even do a basic google search

>1/2 a 1080

Are you high? It's 41% slower than a fucking 1070 in ashes of the singularity and confirmed by mr amd adored tv himself. That puts it nearly 70% slower than a 1080. You're fucking brain dead if you think it's going to be within 50% of a 1080. It's barely even better than a 970 or 390 going by early benchmarks.

>>55312588

Yeah they should have pulled an nvidia:

>our card costs only $500 dollarydoos
>but we will not release them only $800 founder edition. The AIBs will release the cheaper version
>1 month later
>1080 is $1000 because nvidia decided to use heatpipe cooler on ref cards

>>55312684

>buying a reference cooler model

all the serious buyers know that the true potential of the RX 480 will be unlocked through custom coolers and factory OCs

>>55312704
They should just not bother with reference coolers at all. Just offer it OEM and nowhere else.

>>55312684
>shit talking before anyone actually tests the card.
what if that card was tested with 1 fan, or even in a 100° room, who knows

will we ever have another era like the 9700Pro and HD 4870?

>>55312726
Nope. Same with AMD cpus. AMD cucked themselves out of ever being a market leader again, except in consoles I guess.

If I buy a reference card, am I only missing our on a custom cooler? I wouldn't mind buying a reference card if I can just replace the cooler later on down the line.

>>55312726
your forgetting the 5000s that stomped nvidia so hard they skipped them entirely.

>>55312707
no the card is just a dud, wait for 2017

>>55312671

970 Omega amp core edition is out of the box faster than a 980 at stock.

why does this faggot OP post the worst possible performance rumors in the headline instead of the most optimistic rumors?

>>55312756
that wasn't the card used

>>55312701
AoS is also literally made for amd gpus.

THIS ONE FOR $425 AH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

>>55312764
That's the whole point. It's nearly 50% slower than a 1070 in a game which has heavily favored amd. In real world games it'll probably be much slower than the 1070.

>>55312771
>980
I think you forgot to read the most important number in that picture.

>>55312780
fuck off nvidiot, the 1070 is dogshit slow

>>55312771
You do realize this card is no longer in production hence the high prices? I can't tell if you're trolling or legitimately thick in the head.

>>55312744
Only if you have a custom water cooling loop. They sell water blocks to use them with water cooling, but thats it. You can't just buy an air cooler for a GPU.

>>55312787
AH FUCK you got me there let me look more

>>55312457
Let's just say there are a lot of poorfags on /g/ who desperately want the 480 to be their savior

Message to all poorfags: The 970 or 390 are actually a better deal.

Sadly AMD can't even beat their own previous gen card

I can't tell anymore guys. Are we seriously happy that the 480 could possibly be a dud?

>>55312761

But it was:

Yes but do you guys realize is a over clocked card vs a reference?

>>55312820
That's not the core

Jesus are you retarded?
