Rx480 vs Gtx1060
which one is more futureproof and better current value performance-to-price wise?

>>56001829
480 for both, 1060 is only better in outdated dx11 games with gaymeworks

RX 480. It's cheaper, better, and not only has more vRAM but faster vRAM as well.

These things are selling like hotcakes and they sellout really fucking fast though. I would get pic related asap before they are sold out.

1060 is a lot better in nearly everything:

On average, a 1060 is 13.72% better than a 480.

On average, when using DX11, a 1060 is 15.25% better than a 480.

On average, when using DX12, a 1060 is 1.02% worse than a 480.

On average, when using Vulkan, a 1060 is 27.13% better than a 480.

1060 has great price-performance, you will have 65+ FPS in any modern game on settings maxed out. not so futureproof, will be outdated in 2 years.

480 has shitty performance and horrible architecture, underperforms in everything. But it supports all the next-gen tech and with some bios updates you will probably be ok for the next 4 years or so.

You decide.

>>56002103
1060 does dx12 great, in fact it's nearly identical to the 480 dx12 performance.

Same with async, in fact the 1060 is arguably much better at dx12 and async going into the future because it beats the 480 in the DX12 benchmark Time Spy.
>>
>>56002122
>time spy again
it's not a full DX12 implementation

1060 performs better in dx11, and has about the same perf/$ as the RX480 in DX11 (costs slightly more, performs slightly better). RX480 performs better in DX12, so it's going to surpass the 1060 in perf/$ as more DX12 titles are released.
RX480 consumes more power, though.
>>
>>56002062
You realize that it wasn't a problem right? Nvidia has been going over the pci spec for years and nothing bad has happened.

To make matters worse AMD undervolted Rx 480 GPUs with a driver update and as a side effect of getting close the the pci spec they've increased overall performance as well.
>>

Nvidia never went over the pcie spec, not even once.

480 was literally the only card to do that, a complete disaster. Another good reason to avoid the 480 because it still goes over spec even with the new patch.
>>
>futureproof

Neither. If you want "futureproof" your best bet is the 1080.

As far as 480 vs 1060 you're better off with a 1060. Every 480 that goes in stock is being snatched up by a memecoin miner within seconds. At least with the 1060 you won't have to wait 6 months before getting your hands on one.
>>
480. If you actually use your GPU for more then playing console ports and jerking off over your 200 dollar RGB LED mouse and keyboard set with matching video card.

10 series Nvidia is trash. From the Titan down to the 1060 so far. Its only saving grace is it's the only thing out. Because AMD is fucking broke and can't buy enough silicon wafers for production to meet demand.

>>56002296

6% better at a 50 dollar premium in year old vidyagames, with less VRAM. No compute to speak of, and shitty OpenCL support. We won't even go in to Vulkan and Direct X 12 band aid fixes. And now we have some machine language effects via shader intrinsic functions for gaming that Nvidia hasn't even allowed outside of CUDA.

Meanwhile on a 480, I have better crypto, can run OpenCL OR CUDA with no performance loss, superior rendering, but you can sure as fuck do machine learning on that GTX... very, very, slowly.

Fuck it, let's throw on that "SSG" on a W4100 and laugh as it chokes the life out of Nvidia "competition" for rendering real-time 8k resolution at 30 frames per second.
>>
>>56002472
1060 is $10 more for 13% better performance in all games overall.

I know it's annoying when you think you've got a "gotcha", but then find out out don't have one.

Seriously, if you want to measure Vulkan performance use Doom and if want DX12 performance use AotS, Hitman or Total War:Warhammer.

Oh AMD went from helping to create to "input", Ohhh ok I get it.

You seem to read a lot why arent you talking abou the fact that 3DMark uses context switching to do Async and not using proper parallel processing for AMD cards JUST LIKE DX11. 3DMark did a good job of not pissing off Nvidia. iD and Microsoft are the only company so far thats using the new APIs with out a care or concern about AMD or NV.

Sure, when most of them are using DX11 or OpenGL. IIRC the review that figure is from intentionally left out Doom, ran Hitman in DX11 mode and had a whole bunch of games people don't play anymore like Battlefield 3 (yes, 3, not 4).

AMD literally signed off on 3DMark, just like Nvidia did.

Time Spy is a balanced benchmark created to not favor either card, that's why both Nvidia and AMD created it together.

It's really too bad that the 480 is just inferior hardware though compared to the 1060, it just shows in a balanced benchmark such as Time Spy.

Hello Mr graphics card debaters :∆D
>>
>>56002611
>Thinks AMD could have actually forced FutureMark to create vendor or architecture specific branches when FutureMark specifically said that they weren't going to make any
Time Spy used the absolute minimum feature level of the API so it can be run on Nvidia hardware going back to Kepler (600-series), AMD hardware going back to GCN 1.0 (7000-series) along with Intel integrated graphics going back to Haswell (HD4000).

As a DX12 benchmark Time Spy is is joke. Any proper DX12 game is going to have vendor and architecture specific paths that utilize higher feature levels.
>>
>>56002695
>ny proper DX12 game is going to have vendor and architecture specific paths that utilize higher feature levels.

Do you not realize that would create a bias benchmark?

It literally has to be vendor neutral, that's the entire point.

Time Spy is a neutral benchmark with no optimizations for either side, and unfortunately it shows the 1060 is just plain superior to the 480.
>>
>>56002626

I've got a GTX 980. Would I gain anything from upgrading? I'm thinking about acquiring a 4k monitor. Would I gain much from either an RX480 or 1060?
>>
>>56002713
It's a neutral benchmark only in the sense that it runs on the widest possible range of hardware, but the result of that is that it doesn't properly utilize the extra features in more recent hardware.

In other words: As a benchmark it's worthless. I'd compare it to a weight lifting competition between someone who can bench 100 KG vs someone who can bench 90 KG at a gym where the maximum weights only go to 80 KG.

The performance in Time Spy is marginal.between both GPU's on the same AIB Partner card. Also driver updates are already eating into any performance gains the 1060 has.

The 1060 is a good card but you're better off with a 480 if you're gonna keep it for more than 2 years. Also depends on what games you play. If you're not interested in new games the 1060 is a better choice, if you wanna play new upcoming dx12 games like bf1, forza horizon 3 or deus ex then the 480 is better. With Nvidia you get shadowplay which is a really neat feature, AMD has freesync which is good if you're on a budget and planning to get a 144hz monitor down the line. I've been using a 660GTX for a while now and switching over to the MSI Gaming X 480, it's the best aib 480 card so I recommend it.

>>
>>56002138
They designed it together with Nvidia and AMD.
The implemented it based on how they thought most devs would implement it.

Watch the pcperspective interview with one of the lead guys at FutureMark.

Dont know how much truth there is in that, but if Vulkan and DX12 turn out to be a pain in the ass to implement "properly" then most devs will skip it.

They have been selling 480s like crazy, hence why their stock has nearly tripled in value in the past few months.

How much of a fps boost does give me my 1050 monitor over 1080? Im looking into a gpu that can handle witcher 3 max settings at 60fps and both the gtx 1060 and the rx 480 fall just short on that goal at 1080p.

How do Nvidia cards do in an Nvidia sponsored DX12 game like Tomb Raider?
>>
>>56001829
Clearly 480 for long term

>>56001935
Correct. 480 does well in ALL current DX11 games. It'll do even better in DX12, while the 1060 will see no performance increase.

>>56001975
14% better (now) for at least 25% more $$. Most new games will have DX12

>>56001982
>>56002014
Cuck'd hard by nvidia

>>56002122
>1060 does dx12 great, in fact it's nearly identical to the 480 dx12 performance.
You do realize that the 1060 is a LOT more expensive, right?

>>56002272
Here's your (you)
>>
>>56001829
For future proofing, the RX480 hands down. The 1060 is an amazing card and you can't go wrong with it however. There are reasons to choose it like better open GL and DX 11 with better performance on Linux as well. That being said, Vulkan might be the saving grace and the RX480 is still cheaper.
>>
>>56003484
>You do realize that the 1060 is a LOT more expensive
Not the same but [citation needed]
480 8gb MSRP is $230 and the 1060 6gp is $250. Both of them suffer from a lack of supply but I don't recall the 1060 being "a LOT more expensive."
>>
>>56003484
>You do realize that the 1060 is a LOT more expensive, right?

really now. i can pick up a 1060 aib for the same price as a reference 480 8gb and cheaper than the cheapest aib 480.

let me rephrase that for you:

You do realize that the 480 is a LOT more expensive, right?

>>56003262
Even that is a misrepresentation. It is balanced in the sense that it is designed to run on basically any hardware that can theoretically support dx12 most basic feature set.
Like damn even if you designed it to include all features supported by the gtx1000 and rx400 cards and said to hell with older generations it would perform much better without even getting into vendor specific optimizations.
It's true that on average "across the board" meaning from the old to the new Nvidia performs better, but in modern titles which do utilize modern API features and even some vendor specific optimizations the gap closes significantly or even flips.
So it just depends what you are looking for and what you expect to play in the future. I'm willing to bet a lot of smaller or mid-sized studios won't be switching to dx12 for a few more years, but at that point it will be the new standard and dx11 will go the way of dx9 for legacy support.
It's this reason that if you don't plan on upgrading again for 4-5 years (like me) a rx480 would be better, unless you also play a lot of older games.
People always try to peg it as one beats the other in absolutes when it's more dynamic than that.

>It is balanced in the sense that it is designed to run on basically any hardware that can theoretically support dx12 most basic feature set.
That's not an aspect of being balanced. That's an aspect of being a benchmark for DX12. What kind of benchmark for DX12 would it be if it didn't run on any hardware that is DX12 compatible?

I'm beginning to think you are intentionally trying to act like an idiot.

The stock price isn't just about the 480. It's about AMD's partnerships with Microsoft, Sony, and Apple. Private equity firms are dumping cash into AMD. Intel is abandoning the x86 market because profits aren't high enough anymore

I've seen Zotac (read: Sapphire) 6gb versions for $250 but I've never seen a 480 for sale at MSRP. I guess it is reasonable to conclude that the "a LOT more expensive" was just more AMDrivel and misrepresenting the facts.

futureproofing with these budget mainstream cards is a meme. they will barely last 2 years just like the 960 and 380 are nearly 2 years old and can't run the latest games at decent settings 60 fps for shit. just get the faster or cheaper card based on what you want. right now the 1060 is the cheaper and faster card so it's the obvious choice for me. everyone is different.

Just google it. It comes down to whether the game is CPU intensive or not. If you're playing something like ashes of singularity, you're gonna profit from a high end CPU with hyper threading. If the game isn't that heavy on the CPU side, you won't gain much.

>by using an overclock and recent i7.
How about an i5 or something that an RX 480 or 1060 would most likely have?
>>
>>56006901
Most people who buy those will have an i5 6400, 6500, or i3 6100.

The 6100 and 6400 will suffer, the 6500 will suffer less.
>>
>>56006901
I guess, but that still wouldnt make up for 32% (not 34*) of difference.

>>56006901
Vulkan also boosts cpu performance, i bet even i7 970 would be good enough with vulkan

>fast, but inefficient, not even sure if my I5-6500 can power it (it favors i7's)
can people stop it with this fucking bullshit. you don't need a fucking pile of shit skylake i7. it doesn't favor it. it doesn't favor anything. as long as you're not running a potato from fucking 2009 with core 2 quad performance you are fucking fine. fucking shit /g is full of blatant imbeciles that parade around acting like they know shit.

>tldr
all you need is a 2500k or higher. technically a 3ghz nehalem. haswell or above is absolute sweetness. you do not need the latest and greatest i7.
>tldr #2
all pic shows is the processor bottlenecking the 480. this is NOT a driver overhead issue as explained above. with async enabled, the 480 processes a lot of data and the potato processor x4 955 from 2009 with core 2 quad level of performance cannot keep up with the 480's async.
>tldr #3
nvidia does not have async enabled in doom - vulkan. all it benefits from is less driver overhead compared to opengl. this is why the increase from opengl to vulkan with both the 955 and 750 is the same 12fps. if you looked, with the 955 the increase on the 480 too is 10fps. similar to the 1060. with the 750 the 480 jumps to a 18fps increase, higher than the 1060's, because it enters a level of cpu performance that's able to start keeping up with the 480's async performance.
>tldr #4
i don't understand why they went from a 09/10 processor all the way up to essentially 2015/16 processor. little more than half a decade of improvements. but honestly, by seeing the leap from the awful 955 (core 2 quad level) to 750 (2.6ghz first gen nehalem), a 2500k should be more than enough. and if its the k, there is zero reason why it should not be overclocked to a minimum of 4.2ghz with a 212 evo slapped to it.
>tldr #5
all you need is a 2500k or higher. haswell or above is absolute sweetness. you do not need the latest and greatest i7.

you don't need the latest & greatest i7 even in dx11

i guess this debunks the AMD gpus are future proof? Or rather it will be Future proof in the way that they upgrade their cpu to see better gains and be more costly in the end?
>>
>>56004065
pretty sure youll get at least double your performance

>>56007140
Well they do definitely see more gains in dx12 than kepler and Maxwell did, but they need stronger CPUs, so they're not more futureproof unless you're upgrading everything else in your pc but the graphics card

I can find a GTX 770 for £100, meanwhile a GTX 1060 is £260+ and RX 480 is £240+

I'm on a budget, what would be my best course of action?

always been amdfag and have r9 270x. was thinking about upgrade to rx 480 but gtx 1060 seems like objectively the better card. however I'm not sure about the dx12 performance. maybe 1060 will be better now but rx480 will be more future proof?

They'll both be obsolete when the next series of cards are released. Enjoy playing gaymes on medium and low settings.

A 1440p 144hz monitor costs $700. In order to tell the difference you would literally have to spend 3x the card price. I get future proofing, but that is overkill in both bases.

Fact of the matter is that its still losing to the RX 480 90% of the time.Doesn't mattter how much money nvidia thorws at it,the 10XX series still dosent have a hardware scheduler,and in a year or two the 480 is going to be faster that the 1060 by a good margin simply because AMDs hardware is better suited for dx12.

480. 1060 is only slightly better for more money and gimped performance in dx12/vulkan.

If you're buying nvidia, I don't know why you're even considering a 1060. Poorfags should stick with amd. Don't ignore the meme.

After working at AMD for a while I can honestly say their outlook isn't good. They start and stop so many projects, waste so much money on shit they should finish and take away from their core business that I am surprised they're still afloat. Their stock prices reflect the management's decisions. If they stuck to their guns to once and got a good project completed maybe they'd gain back enough marketshare for people to give a fuck again. Easily one of my worst jobs as far as achieving goals goes.
>>
>>56016066
Yeah man if you dont buy a new GPU every year you're fucking poor.

Nvidia just put my 980ti on Legacy, shit was so cash. Just a year ago it was "The fastest single gpu" and now its complete shit because it cant run DX12. Good thing I'm gonna SLI 3 Titan X P's for 2016.

Hahaha fucking AMDpoors.
>>
>>56016677
What does "legacy" mean? Does that mean they are going to stop making drivers for it? Does that mean they are going to stop making improvements to it via software, aka mainline drivers? Does that mean it will magically stop working overnight?

Or does it mean that it is no longer current hardware because new technology has been released?

>>56018215
The 1060 is objectively better performance-wise, but the 480 beats it on performance-per-dollar. Honestly the 1070 beats them out in both departments. Best performance-per-dollar of anything released so far this generation.
>>
>>56001829
Like other recent AMD GCN cards, the RX 480 is more future proof and higher price-to-perf than its closest Nvidia counterpart, at the cost of being hotter/more power thirst and generally embarrassing to own.

>>56018353
