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.

You still haven't answered my question. I'm asking why the 1060 flopped in DX12 in those games. Mainly because they are all of interest to me so going with nvidia would mean having to settle for laggy gameplay. Is there a driver update that will fix this?

I'm curious, how does the GTX 1060 do in VR. I keep hearing about people with nvidia cards becoming sick after playing with VR because of some kind of stutter or something. As I understand nvidia cards lack full hardware async support and so they're not recommended for VR.
>>
>>56004844
Mini ITX 1060s are actually very good. Check reviews for EVGA 1060, it's one of the best.

4GB 480 is very bad, even worse performance than the above benchmarks.

>As for the 4GB R9 290 vs. 8GB R9 390 comparison, there was nothing to see here. Most games didn’t consume more than 4GBs of VRAM, but there were cases such as in Assassin's Creed Syndicate where with almost 5GBs of memory usage, there was still not a single frame difference. Moreover, in this Assassin's Creed Syndicate example the 290 and 390 were good for just 26fps on average, so clearly the quality settings will need to be reduced for achieving playable performance and consequently memory use will drop.

>The 390 and 390X are really graphics cards we never wanted. At the time of their release the Radeon R9 290 and 290X were exceptional buys. The 290X cost just $330, while today the 390X costs around $100 more for no additional performance and it is no different with the 290 and 390.

>We see plenty of gamers claiming that the 390 and 390X are excellent buys due to their 8GB frame buffer ensuring that they are "future proofed," and well, that simply isn’t the case, as neither GPU has the horsepower to efficiently crunch that much data. Perhaps the only valid argument here is that the larger frame buffer could support Crossfire better, but we haven’t seen any concrete evidence of this yet.

480 4gb reference would be a killer deal if it didn't blow on ice design wise and had any kind of availability. The aftermarket 480 cards are so exorbitantly marked up. If you didn't buy the $275 sapphire fury, newegg paypal code $230 meh aftermarket cooler 1060, or $170 premium cooler 470 you got cucked and are why the market sucks so much dick.

Must be why they keep compute in their consumer cards, have TruAudio DSP's built in to every GCN, have higher double precision in the lower end over Nvidias top end consumer cards, and don't have to resort to vendor lock in to keep you as a customer.

Who is cutting corners here?

Same price or cheaper than the 480 in many areas.
More than enough vRAM for 1080p gaming, you won't get high framerates above that resolution anyway without lowering the quality which will lower the vRAM requirements.
FP32 performance literally isn't important for gaming.
It's okay.
>~20% less FPS in DX12 than a 480
In which title?
SLI is shit.
They couldn't do an 8GB vRAM option without it being like the 970 due to the configuration of the SMs in the GPU. In order to have all full speed it needs to have six chips, so 6GB or 12GB, or 9GB if you can get 1.5GB vRAM chips.
I bought a 1060 and I have no regrets. The only recent game I am playing is Doom on Ultra settings 2560x1080 and I'm averaging 80-100FPS. In the older games I play my minimum FPS is over 100. I have no complaints.

It's too late anon. Triggered AMDrones already left the thread convincing themselves they won the nonexistent battle between AMD and Nvidia. Truth is Nvidia slaughtered AMD with the release of 1060 and upcoming 1050. AMD had an open window of opportunity but because AiB 480 is a paper launch of 1080 levels and 1060 came out in thousands from dozens of different manufacturers it's over.

Both RX 480 and GTX 1060 are decent cards, I don't think you would go wrong with either choices for 1080p gaming.

Don't get why people need to argue so much. There are pros and cons for each.

It's kind of nice we have at least 2 companies making PC GPUs, how much dick would it suck if either of them went belly up? If you think only AMD is at risk, think again and remember what happened to 3DFX.

Proprietary drivers anon. AMD either releases the source or a binary blob and instructions. Instead I have a shell script that does a full stop when it detects Fedora and a shitload of .deb files.

I'm aggravated but not enough to return the card just yet. A lot of Linux users aren't going to hop on the *buntu bandwagon over this, and if AMD requires full on ubuntu & unity for its drivers to work you can bet your ass I'll shill nvidia for the rest of my life.

1. Be already very rich

>who plays windowed/windowed borderless mode

Anyone with more than one monitor. I don't know anyone who plays fullscreen anymore. I don't know anyone without atleast a second monitor too.
>>
>>56012571
Because unlike a video card my monitor is going to last me at least 5 years, makes sense to get one I can grow into. Also having a second monitor obviates the need to play in windowed mode because any shit you might need to look at while gaming is already on it. Windowed mode adds a ton of input lag too, it's pretty silly just to save one second instead of alt tabbing.

Only semi related, but the perf/W gains that Nvidia made this gen pretty much runs AMD out of the mobile buisness entirely, though they were pretty much gone as it is.

According to leaks (go google it fucko) the 1070M will be on par with the desktop version, thanks to more cores to make up for the lower clocks, with the 1060M being only slightly behind its counterpart due to the same cores but a slightly lower clock.

I guess its not a big deal in the sense that AMD were already dead in the high end mobile end anyway, and it looks doubtful they'll be able to make a mobile GPU that can compete due to lower perf/W.

But as long as Nvidia doesn't go total jew (and lets face it, they might) that means you'll be able to pick up a laptop with an i5-6300HQ, GTX1060, and a mobo with an NvME slot for less than $1000, maybe even less than $750. I don't know about you, but that's about all the computing power I'm ever going to need.

Vram is how much RAM a GPU has, which doesn't fucking matter considering how a 3.5gb GTX 970 destroyed anything AMD could offer last gen.

DX12 is an API only a few games use, especially shitty games like "Hitman - the "Episodic" series" , but AMDrones like to show it off despite AMD being complete shit at DX11 or OpenGL.

Basically its just retarded AMDrone arguments that mean nothing, kinda like "Moar cores"
>>
>>56004132

"destroyed"

a 290/390 would come close second, or beat it in most case, and the 290X/390X would be trading blows with the 980 before any overclocks.

Yes Nvidia has the advantage now, but doesn't mean AMD hasn't made competative products.

the 480 is trading blows with the 1060 pretty consistantly, while being same/cheaper.

Also more ram = faster ram.

>>56014735
>a 290/390 would come close second, or beat it in most case, and the 290X/390X would be trading blows with the 980 before any overclocks.

At much higher wattage and temps, more than you should be paying for with a midrange card. You need a fucking $100+ PSU just for those.
>>
>>56014751
not really, they used only slightly higher power.

and the reason for that is because Nvidia removed allot of compute abilities.

remeber the house fire the 480 was? you know how they *fixed* it? simply cut out the compute abilities.

this why we see AMD beating Nvidia in Dx12.

same reason why the 290/290X was so popular for bit coin mining.

also I run my 390X off a $60 600w PSU with no problems, even have a nice 1150mhz on the core.

cheapest gtx 1060 in stock (£235)

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/zotac-geforce-gtx-1060-mini-6144mb-gddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-106-zt.html

that's a massive £35 (45 dollar, 40 euro) difference when the 1060 is also currently 10/15% faster. you also get a 2 year longer warranty with the 1060. you'd have to be legitimately thick in the head to pay more for the rx480 which is currently slower and has a shorter warranty length.

deluded fanboys will still defend the shitty 480 prices though. come at me.

Easy, man. Intel/nvidea are for overclocking. If you have do desire to overclock cpu and gpu, then there is no reason to not buy AMD. However, Intel/Nvdea over clock way higher than amd does and if you plan to overclock, you get more for your money with Intel/nvidea.

Why the fuck do you guys rage over graphics cards that are a used XBOX 1? Seriously it's about as stupid as arguing over whether the Big Mac or Whoopee is the better burger. Who gives a fuck, they're budget video cards. Are you that pathetically desperate to justify your purchase either way?

Nothing uses anywhere near 6gb vram at 1080p or even at 1440p
The cards are not even fast enough to utilize that much vram
They are budget mid market, where mostly idiots shop.
Smart people bought either last seasons high end 4gb at discount or 4gb rx chips.

Some do, but many don't in order to not fall out of AMDs favor.

Notice how with the i7 the AMD card is actually in the lead, but with an overclocked i5 or weaker it actually trails behind the nvidia.

Found this, hopefully you've got auto translate.

Looks like its less of an issue with the rx480. An i5 won't hold you back as much as it would if you had a 390

Wow nvidia drivers are shit tier now. I was planning on a 1060 but i guess I'll get a 470 or 480. Better price and drivers at this point.

>>56004132
There was the small but shitty non SC cooler EVGA 1060 for $217 earlier today. Was a little mad at first, since I just ordered a msi gaming x rx470 for $168. But that MSI is a beast cooler that is dead silent at full load overclocked apparently, that never drops boost, and the 470 gets twice the performance increase from OC as the 1060 does. And I saved ~$50 and amd tends to age better so I'm not mad. 2gb loss pains me, but at 1080p it'd probably not huge.

are msi's "gaming x" cards just binned cards? they have the same cooler as their regular "gaming" cards but they're usually $20-$30 more and have higher factory clocks. i was thinking about getting a regular gaming 1060 and overclocking it but i'm wondering if they're playing silicon lottery with with their pascal/polaris cards
>>
>>56019895
Is it shitty due to the lack of heat pipe(s)?

One review I'd seen for the SC seemed alright.
>>
>>56019982
3d guru said it was the best overclocking 470 they got, and I don't think they really tweaked it well enough since thetheven admit the review was rushed. And I trust that site for benchmarks before just about anyone else, even though they seem to lean slightly green.

I think the 480 chips suffered bad yields in addition to a shit reference, and there's a shitload of binned 470s on aftermarket boards and shrouds for cheap as a result.

Look in the back pictures of the non SC small 1060, it looks like it has no heat pipes and very little fins. Not hating on it. I would have gladly snagged that deal.
>>
>>56019953
This has got to be the worst meme I've ever seen on g
>>
>>56020005
For $10 more, the SC model is the one to get. It uses the 960 shroud instead of the borderline useless 950 shroud. Neither are the best options, to be honest. Even if you have to spend $10 more.
>>
>>56018428
Pretty true unless youre buying games on day one. Nvidia tend to have better drivers first and fast for particular games. But AMD cards seem to age better beyond the 2 year mark. Both definitely have their merits, though amd seems slightly less evil.
>>
>>56020598
I understand that idea, I do that very rarely only one I've done that with this is Deus Ex Mankind Divided.
>>
>>56020598
That's because Nvidia drivers are already good, but AMD drivers gain more performance with better processors.

Look to driver overhead, there's a reason why the HD7950 is so much faster on the 6700k compared to a gtx 670.

Part of it is having more vram, and 384 bit, and better parallelism for dx12, but in dx11 the main advantage is reduced overhead with a better processor.
>>
>>56020796
Well, as someone that overshot because of the shitty cpu market and a good deal, I got a steal on a 6600k that runs less than a degree centigrade above ambient at idle at stock; I'm literally cool with that. Probably sell my GPU for $110 in two years if the market as a disappointing as it now.
>>
>>56020796
So there's still and advantage with dx 12 ?
>>
>>56004132

dat feel when i got my msi 980 a year ago for 350, welp gonna wait for another black friday sale for a better card
>>
>>56020987
The OCed 470 trades blows or outright beats the OCed 1060 in dx12 about a quarter the time, I'd guess based on benches. For much less.

We will see if AMD Fanboys are right about vulkan and DX12 adoption. I can't wait to see how far I can push my 470 clocks. I think it will be the price performance king at some point. If you want VR, fuck the 470, 480, and 1060 (though the 1060 would be your best bet there). Grab a 1070 or 1080 or fucking wait.
>>
>>56021164
AMD definitely has an advantage in dx12, but don't forget that GCN itself relies on a powerful cpu to scale well too.

A 480 and 1060 should be about even with a 3470 though, so anything newer than that will be plenty.
>>
>>56021164
I think DX 12 will be adopted but less so Vulkan probably on familiarity.

>>56021220
I shall find out soon when Sapphire Nitro's are out in the UK.
>>
>>56013795
You fucking moron we're comparing performance loss on AMD and Nvidia with the same i7, i5 and i3 processors.
>>
>>56013795
Just to make things easier for you:

Nvidia performance loss from i7 4790k to i3-4170 (crysis 3): 0,8 / 1
AMD performance loss from i7 4790k to i3-4170 (crysis 3): 8,9 / 10
>>
>>56021220
I have an unbelievably chilly 6600k so I'll be fine on overhead. It really does depend on your specific situation. As a whole, this generation is mildly disappointing though. expected more from a die shrink. 1050ti might be a slaughterhouse if it's released, but that might be 8 months down the road with the paper launches we've been seeing, with accompanying price inflation.
