>AMD spends 200 million on R&D every quarter for both

>>55661752
It's only 10% faster on average and costs $100 more

in addition we all know AMD cards age better, in a year the 480 will be as fast as the 1060 just like with the 7950 vs 780ti

You faggots really need to tone this shit. Everyone with a functioning brain expected it to perform better since it's considerably more expensive.

>>55661776
>$250-$300 is $100 more than $250
I guess AMDpoors couldnt afford an education

>>55661752
stop posting nigel with these garbage threads

>>55661810
the 4gb 480 is $199

>>55661752
I just wish AMD fucking died so we could finally stop making these threads

>>55661822
I thought having unnecessary shitloads of Vram was super important, AMDtards

>>55661810
>$230 RX480 vs $250 GTX 1060 is fine
>$200 RX480 vs $300 GTX 1060 isn't
Get better bait. Fuck you OP.

>>55661842
Not if you're gaming at 1080p

i'm gonna need some sauce OP

>>55661752
>$300 card beats $200 card
>so hard to believe
Eh?

god he's sexy

>>55661851
the thing is Nvidia could sell it for $200, kill AMD, and still make a profit

technologically wise Nvidia will always be superior to AMD, and them deciding not to prematurely support Async or HBM has nothing to do with it

>>55661953
i don't care about your videogames

i was talking about the dashing rogue in the pic

>technologically wise Nvidia will always be superior to AMD
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

>>55661752
I prefer AMD's business practises.

>>55661765
5€ difference in Italy
Can't order a 480 for cheaper than 274€

>>55661849
>benchmarks cite 8GB cards

>using 4GB prices because fuck it

Real talk:

Does Intel even consider AMD real competition in the majority of the markets they share?

r480>gtx480

NVIDIA BTFO!!!

>>55662349
Realistically speaking, Intel could stop selling processors to home system builders and still be very profitable. AMD is competitive in certain categories but overall isn't much of a threat.

More spending doesn't always equal a better product. There was a brief time where AMD caught fucking Intel off guard and were kicking their asses.

AMDKEKS ON SUICIDE WATCH

>>55662417
During those times the gap between intel and AMD in terms of spending on R&D and revenue were closer to each other.

>>55662417
It was just intel being retarded with netburst. There were desktop MBs for pentium M which OC shitted even on athlon64 at the time.

>>55662479
Proof? I don't believe it at all. AMD were a much smaller company then and were the underdogs. They didn't even have their hand in GPUs yet.

According to this, Intel spent 3.1 billion on R&D in 1999, the year the Athlon was released. I highly doubt AMD spent anywhere near as much.

>>55662507
The losing party of any competition is "the party just being retarded with x". My point stands that the money isn't everything.

>>55661765
it's $10 more stop fanboying you retarded AMD faggot

>>55662366
> 1080 is 600 more than 480

>>55661860
>$300
Non-Founder's are $249. Founder's is, admittedly, just a cash grab to make a quick buck on low availability.

Plus, the $249 price tag is the same as that of the 8GB RX480, which means the 1060 has better performance at the same cost with less VRAM than the 8GB RX480, or better performance at a worse cost with more VRAM than the RX480 4GB.
