Case doesn't have any LED's in it, sun will come up soon though I'll take pics then.

And yes it's running at 1487 Mhz but it can't get any more power over 6 pin, temps are fine with the waterblock though, 65~ ºC with an H100.

can you run some other benchmarks at those clocks?

Thanks man, I'm extremely interested in seeing how these things perform when massively overclocked.
From the reviews I've read it looks like reference cards are seriously limited by heat and power so hopefully vendors will be able to fix that with custom cards and unlock the 480's true potential.

I'm probably gonna sell my fury x and buy a custom cooled rx 480 with additional power connectors

It's a budget card for poorfags, did you miss that part of the AMD shilling? I'm waiting to see what Vega has to offer, if it disappoints I'm going to wait for Navi vs. Volta generation. Either way I'm not upgrading any time soon since I'm content with the card I have.

rx 480 is not a "high-end" flagship card like Fury X, what are you doing wanting to get a card on the completely opposite end of the spectrum?

I have a cheap Asrock Extreme 4 Z77ITX and it hasn't blown up yet so shrug.

man, I said it before, the RX480 just needs a proper cooler and more than a 6-pin connector so it can get enough power.

I'm gonna get the 4gb version with the two power connectors once they come out; then slap on my old gpu cooler and OC them to 1600MHz and get 980ti performance for $200.

>>55334152

>>55334166
>Video cards have been doing this for years, it's not a problem at all unless you have a bottom of the barrel PSU and motherboard.

The problem is that the RX480 only has enough connectors to get 150W of power, but the card itself can use over 160W. It has to draw more power through the single connector and the PCIE slot than what they are specced for. This can damage motherboards, unless you specifically get some that can deliver more than 75W on the PCIE slot.

Reference RX480 is a catastrophe. The card needs a 8-pin connector or two 6-pin ones, and a decent cooling solution, which AIBs will release in a few weeks. But AMD had to release the card gimped like that so they can market it as a cheap low-power solution, when it isn't.

Nah, those drivers caused the cooler to shut down and the card to bake itself, the cooler is clearly working on that card so it isn't a driver fault. The VRMs just burnt up.

I've seen a review on linushilltips showing the sager 980 preforming exactly the same as the traditional desktop 980. Although for a lot cheaper(about 400$) the 970s preform as well as a 980. In the Heavonly benchmark on ultra/normal tess/2xAA my average fps was 99.5.

Hmmmm, so the 480 has average of 80W over the PCI rail, which is higher than the 75W specification, and the factory OC'd 960 has an average of somewhere around 55W over the PCI rail.

Thanks. This proves the RX480 doesn't conform to specifications and is poorly designed.

Partner board will most likely have a completely new custom board with their own power control.

AMD reference board have an overkill vram setup, which is most likely where all the voltage went to waste seeing how fucking hot it is compared to the chip itself.

Sun should be up now , pic of gpu with the cooler on please OP.

>>55338407
This. The main reason for shit overclock is not enough juice. 8-pin will provide 150W + 75W from motherboard for a total of 225W.

To be honest though most will probably stick with 6-pin connector. AMD never intended this to be an overclocking beast in the first place, I mean it's only 200 fucking dollars, jesus christ.

>>55334899
Beats le downboat echo chamber. And I frequent Reddit.

Can't help but to think that this card perff/watt sweetspot is actually higher than what AMD has set it up to be
Based on the results so far it would have about 35% performance increase over 25% wattage.
1.5MHz/200watt is where it should be.

>>55338560
they probably tried to make more space for vega cards.

>>55338585
They chink out on the cooler shit to meet the shitty MSRP they imposed.
Seriously, if they clock it higher, get better cooler and charge it for $270 ~ $300 it would still be a damn good GPU.

But nope, $200 lol.

>>55338319
well according to reddit someone made a list of the sites and who used what driver

They did say $199-$300 though, so it's not out of the question that some great chips will sell near the upper end when paired with nice cooling solutions.

>>55338609
I imagine they left the meaty clocks and cooling to the AIB parters. They probably accounted for the increase in price and know a $300 AIB will smoke a 980ti.

Been waiting to upgrade my 45% OCed 7850. My body is ready. Fix this reference injustice, sapphire.

>>55338695
Sounds like you never figured out how to unlock your OC program or something. Most 7850s hit 1050Mhz without even touching the voltages.

>>55338754
OP is probably full of shit, but the scaling performance might be real based on those multiple OC benches where they all got more than what they clocked.

>>55338780
bullshit i tried to oc it multple of times with all existing oc program out there (only asus gpu tweak let me control voltages, newest versions doesn't worked even tho they had power limit which didn't worked), voltages are locked to 1.21v so i can't go past that and anything more than 1050mhz crashes my drivers. I tried to install bios from other cards or increase voltage but it didn't let me oc more than 1100mhz anyway so it's pointless since temps were much worse.

480 FS graphics score looks like it scales with about a slightly below 10:1 ratio with the cards clock speed plus about 1000, i.e 1100 mhz core = 12000 score, 1230 core = 12700 score and so on. Something like a 15000/16000 firestrike at 1480 mhz isn't entirely unexpected.

>>55338861
Well that does suck. Which card specifically?

>>55338014
Sauce on that?

>>55338346
Polaris could have been a good chip if they hadn't cut it to bone to hit their price target.
64 rops, 8 pin power, 2 phase vram power, and aib coolers would have made this thing so much better.

>>55338935
Also, look into Msi afterburner. I think they changed it so you don't even need to edit confit files with a pledge or whatever. Just tick a box in advanced options.

Sounds like your specific card may be locked down, though. Gigabyte?

Nice photoshop skills OP, no actual links or proper pics of the gpu in question. Also that score doesnt seem to exist on the firestrike site.

People always spout "IT ONLY HAS 3.5GB!" When in reality it's far worse

OP is a fag, no record of this bench on 3dmark. nothing to see here folks. also, i7-3570k....ok

No, it actually actively tries to avoid allocating within the slow 0.5GB of VRAM unless it has to. It only does when it would otherwise be forced to swap from system RAM as that would be like five times slower than even the 0.5GB of slower VRAM.

>>55339489
Nvidia cards generally stripe data across all the memory interfaces they have, so that they pretty much all get used fully/equally.

A 980 has a full 4 GB of 224 GB/s memory that can be used without special considerations.
A 970 has 3.5 GB of 196 GB/s memory that it tries to keep the most accessed data in and 0.5 GB of 28 GB/s memory it uses as a last resort.

The bad part is that when the 0.5 GB slice is used, it competes for L2 cache space with 1 out of 7 memory accesses in the big, faster pool, and you suddenly have the GPU repeatedly stalling on memory accesses for data not in the slow region too.

This is a very nearly intractable problem, and it would probably have been better to just completely disallow the GPU access to the last 0.5 GB.
In practice the best the drivers can do is put data in that memory that it basically never hopes to use anyway.
