1080 is bigger than 480 so it must be better

The 1060 and 480 look to be very competitive cards. Just go with whatever non reference card you can afford. The 480 will be better in dx12 games that take advantage of async compute (so only the big AAA games going forward pretty much), the 1060 will be better in gameworks optimized titles, which is a lot, making it pretty much a draw.

>>55512621

Don't be silly, they're using Communist rhetoric for Capitalist purposes. It's part of marketing that they are idiosyncratically passing off something that cost $200 as the working man's card.

I love my 480

Well that settles it.
I'm not giving my money to Communist sympathizers.

nvidia's cards are made in china, a communist country

>>55513569
China is state capitalist friendo

>>55513569

But AMD is made in Taiwan, which is a democracy.

>>55513628

Same thing corporations that shit out Che t-shirts mean. They think that it's cool and edgy to be anti-capitalist so they try to market it, regardless of how contradictory that may be.

>>55513138

>>55513756
>reddit communists and bernie bros

if they're targeting those two groups they'd better release a card they can afford (read: $1.73)

>>55513858
Such witty banter

>>55512651
>970 to 480
>upgrade

I would understand enthusiasts for whom cost is no object upgrading to a new flagship GPUs every year for the best performance possible.

But upgrading a budget card so soon for minimal performance gain is completely retarded.

Congratulations on being a retard, retard.

>>55513931
i agree

>>55513058
It means AMD can't win this generation unless Vega is significantly better in power highly doubtful.

>>55514368

>>55513058
>>55512986
I give the 1070 3 months before the 480 eclipses it.

Already got 3% performance increase in the first week, so it's nicely on track.

Workers unions in the early days fought for unemployment pay, maximum work hours, safety regulations, health insurance, etc.

they mean that their cards are cheaper for the same performance, therefore it is a revolutionary undertaking of the big "nvidia".

>>55512621
simple, they mean that "the people" aka "poorfags" now have powerful GPU for very affordable price.

So that's why AMD shills are brain washed poorfags who can barely speak English. It all makes sense now.

>>55513281
Async isn't even part of dx12. Also results vary to say the best where the tw:w gave older cards performance gain but rotr literally made no difference.

>>55517784
Their representatives sometimes had communist leanings. Their actual involvement with the soviet union was fabricated.

>>55513957
You're jelly? Holy shit.

>>55518814
it's actually a good idea to move from a 970 to a 480 8GB if you can find a retard to buy your 970. the nvidiots usually pay full price for these shitstains

>>55512675
Guarantee you will find a 480 for much cheaper.

>>55518814
>Replacing a card you already have with an innefficient housefire card that doesn't even give you any real performance increase

I'm not jelly, I've got a 1080. But you're still a fucking moron.

claiming that nvidia actually had stock to push in the first place...

they sold a little bit over 30.000 cards and that was pure uninterrupted sales of 5 weeks till 1070 came
