Sometime mid August. AMD has to fill back orders on their reference cards due to high demand. So AIB partners are running late. AMD expected high demand just not this high. Blame coin miners and overhype.

Gibbo 'This Friday looks unlikely to be honest, but I am awaiting an update from Sapphire.'

Oh FFS! 1060 reviews are out later today and AMD has no AIB reviews for the 480. AMD fucking up AGAIN!

>>55643140

>>55643881
You can't unless you import it. Mid to late August for you guys I would guess. AMD really fucked up by not allowing AIB partners to release their own cards on launch day like Nvidia has. Now there will be no reviews of AIB 480's to compare against 1060 AIB's later today. People will go buy the GTX 1060 because there are no 480 AIB's to buy.

>>55643911

Fuck off cunt reference cards are also "Add In Cards"

>>55643924
I blame /r/amd.

>>55643911
to be fair nvidia didn't this time around. aib partners had to wait i think two weeks? before they could release theirs.

granted not as long as of a wait like amd.

Can someone even tell me what's difference between pic related and AMD's reference card? Is it just the reference being sold by Sapphire instead?

It seems fucking useless....

>>55643953
3 Sapphire cards

-Nitro
-Nitro+
-Toxic

Yes, AMD does not sell cards directly to consumers(well not a lot of them). They use distributors to sell their cards. This way AMD does not have to worry about the promotion in stores, warranties and other sales related things. So yes its just a reference.

>>55644025
Holy shit I thought Nvidia was going to release a slower card! Who the fuck would have seen that coming!~!~!~!~! WOW!~!~!

>>55643981
ok?

but sapphire nitro or asus strix?

>>55643236
Sapphire have better clocks but get what has better warranty in your region.
Sapphire almost always make better coolers than Asus.

Oh sorry I read your question wrong. I have personal experience with both cards. Asus quality with motherbaords are good, with Graphics cards...fucking horrable. Their 480 Strix looks really nice but I don't like the quality of their coolers. I would go with the better built Sapphire or MSI

didnt amdrones expected 1400 or 1500 clocks? KEK

>>55644025
its a pajeet

and what is he running the ashes and tomb raider on? dx11 or dx12?

also some of his benchmarks don't match most review sites. his are lower.

also how the fuck did a random ass pajeet get a 1060?

obvs lower, since his rig is shit compared to reviewers. i think reviewing cards like 1060 and 480 with 6700k and 32gb 4000mhz isnt fair or actually shows real performance. It just shows potential max performance, but IRL thats just retarded setup,

I have until 6pm to pre order the Nitro+ so I am gonna look hard at the benchmarks later on today and see how the 1060 performs. It does not give me a lot of time to make a decision plus I have a fucking dental appointment at 3pm. The 1060's go on sale at OCUK at 2pm! They'll probably run out when I do get to decide. Jesus fuck this is the worst GPU launch ever!

>>55644171
I should go get some sleep thinking about it. UK fag here.

Can you cancel the preorder at any time?

>>55644191
Yes I cancelled once already. I was going to get a 1070 but cancelled that too. Twice. I can't make my fucking mind up anymore.

yeah but i just got done looking at a few ashes benchmarks and the 480 is faster than the 1060.

like pic related. processors are at stock and in ashes are near the same to each other in performance.

>poolaris

>>55644230

>>55644215
This is what I fucking figured out before anyone else stated it. The code just treats both cards as dumb GPU's instead of pushing each GPU's strengths to their max. It's comparing apples to pineapples. Fucking pointless. It should lean on the strengths of each card and fucking use them to give a fair benchmark.

Depends on what yo're doing with them and if it's gaming what game? I play BF4 works really well with crossfire. I use double the energy of one card but I get higher frame rates than some top end cards.

I wonder if they're going to offer the same warranty deal on their fans as sapphire.

So if I must buy a GPU right now, and leaning towards the RX 480, would it be wise to pre-order the Nitro+ or just wait for the whole array of different vendors?
I don't have a dedicated GPU right now, just the intel hd 530.

>>55650039
Asus has a Strix model coming out in August that knocks the boost clock up to 1400 MHz. If you can wait, you should at least wait until you can see how the two compare.

I'm super fucking confused now. After the release of the 1060, local retailer just brought down the price of the R9 Fury to 500 dollarydoos.

Considering the Nitro is going to be at least $450, I'm really not sure whether or not it's going to be worth it anymore.

Is there any reason I should go for the 480 over the fury?

Question time,

Should I wait for rx480 nitro+ and get it for 250 quid or just get a 1060 for the same price?

I'm coming from 770 and use it for 1080p.

How much is the Nitro+ in murrica?

>>55650756
480. It's a lot more future proof keeping Vulkan and DX12 in mind.

Plus njewdia literally the 1060 un-SLI'able because they're fucking chinky kikes. No reason to support that shitty practice.

>>55650806
Well I do dislike nvidia for their shitty practices and how keppler cards were gimped.

Will just wait for nitro then.

>>55650806
One other question, should I get nitro+ or nitro+ oc
the only difference is 40mhz on the boost clock and that it is priced at 239 instead of 249.

It'll be really interesting to see how a MSI 480 twin frozr does up against a 1060 twin frozr


Linustechtip review of 1060 is avsuolutely fucking hilarious. It literally only shows 4-5 games and all of them are GameWorks titles in DX11 and games that have the option for DX12 mode are still only running in DX11 mode. I shit you not it's actually disgusting.

Dumb question: how does the 480 fare for OpenCL workloads?
