Which non reference rx480 is the best?

>>56398944
none they have multiple issues that amd isnt acknowledging

go look at the amd support forums at all the problems people are having with them

>>56398944
sapphire is pretty much best amd aftermarket regardless of card

Sapphire or the power color Red Devil if you plan to overclock.

>>56398974
Normal sapphire or the nitro one¿?

>>56399097
Nitro is faster because cooling lets it overclock more before overheating

>>56398944
the MSI aib shits all over the sapphire one

or get powercolor if you're serious about OC'ing.

>>56399019
I'm afraid of buying from Power Color because a lot of their products have poor reviews.

>>56398974
you a bitchass nigga, the best rx 480 atm is the powercolor version or the msi.

>>56398944
Yup I had and still have a shit ton off problems with my rx 480, now my pc is somewhat stable and the performance are good but it's not necessarily a card I would recommend

Im poor so i dont want to buy a monitor with more than 60hz and 1080p

>>56398944
the one with an 8-pin instead of a 6-pin

but you should get a rx470, unless you really, really want 8GB VRAM, they have almost exactly the same performance

Sapphire, XFX GTR and surprisingly HIS IceQ. All of them has nice clocks, and overclock really well.

About temps and noise:

I can safely say that Sapphire's Nitro is a bit hot and loud, XFX's GTR has excellent temperatures and basically no noise.

All I know about HIS' IceQ is that it overclocks really well. There's a review already somewhere, can't remember wich website exactly.

>>56398944
Bouncing off of >>56399896, the 480 is in a pretty awkward spot. The sapphire nitro Fury is a better buy if you can find it around $300 or less, giving you better performance than most aftermarket 480s at around the same cost. Otherwise, if you're on a budget, the 470 will give you similar performance to the 480, while actually managing to stay around $200.

I like the look of the MSI one, but got a Saphire rx 470 4GB (pic related) and very happy with it, no problems at all , love this card desu sexy asf with a nice backplate, if's pretty quiet if you have fan on auto only time you'll hear it kick up a bit is during prolonged and heavy loads if your not gaming for hours it runs cool and silent around 36 degrees at stock but if you turn the fan all the way up to 5000 RPM man is it loud but it keeps it cool thats for sure I use headphones anyway so I barely hear it in the background

honestly AMD did a great job with these GPU, 470 is the new standard in price / performance per dollar ratio more so than the 480 is, plays all the same games my GTX 970 does and uses less power because 470 has a 120W TDP

>>56398944

Not had any problems with it

I got a nitro+, it's great. Barely fit in my CM 690 II, though.

What is Vulkan?

Can anyone provide me with physical size for the rx 480 nitro? Amazon and other sites like superbizz have different numbers.

Either the Powercolor Devil or the MSI Gaming X.
If you can't grt one od these then XFX or Sapphire.

XFX GTR Black is pretty good, temps hit about 70c for me.

I've found my XFX is pretty darn quiet under normal load with reasonable temps. If you've got something demanding like furmark it'll be louder of course.

Looking at a GTR Black for £244.

>>56403735
You have a very salient point that Direct X 12 simply doesn't matter to the 1080 and 1070.

>>56398944
MSI.
Sapphire card is the loudest of them all(still less then reference though)

In the UK the MSI is only in stock at an insane £299, but was in stock on ebuyer for £253.

I'm hoping the xfx is better than the sapphire.

What do you guys mean when you say nitro is hot?

I agree it's idle temp is worse than 1060 (delta t 15 to 10). The issue I had was that it would sometimes go all the way up to the sixties, but then the fan would kick in. Is this what you mean?

>Powercolor Devil
Gets rekt in every possible by the XFX GTR. I dont know why people are still shilling this card. Not to mention the size of that shit.

Nothing wrong with Nitro+ sound/temps, since most of it was a bug by conflicting sapphire/amd drivers. The OC version is probably binned so its probably worth it.

All around, the best one is probably the XFX GTR.

Anyway, im giving up my build to a shittier CPU and cooler just to get a 1070 instead. Everyone should do it to teach amd to stop releasing cards that are one year behind Nvidia cards.

>>56403714
>loud

nope, unless you classify "I CAN HEAR IT ON A SUMMER DAY WHEN I PRESS MY FAT NU-MALE NVIDIOT HEAD AGAINST THE CASE" as loud

480 is garbage compared to the 1060. if you want a value card that's slower than the 1060 just get a 470. otherwise the 1060 is always the better buy.

>>56407571
>480 already beating 1060 in DX12
>12+ games coming this year have or will have DX12

Hmm... really makes me think...

Also, if you intend to use your card on 1440p, a good number of games are already pushing 5-6 GB VRAM with high settings, like GTAV and Tomb Raider. While it's likely not to make too much of a difference since the amount of VRAM it uses is going to be bottlenecked by the card itself, it could make a difference in some games to have 8 GB vs. 6.

The problem is the 480 being so scarce and its demand that makes its pricing so shitty. Im not complaining, the 1060 and 1070 have great prices.

For the same price I would get a i5 6600k+480 last month I can get a i7 6700+1070 today.

Thank god I didnt preorder the 480, let alone the 470.

6700k with 1070 you faggot. If you can save up for a i5 with a 1070 you can certainly save a bit more for the best of both worlds.

If you cant, 6600k+1070, obviously.

>>56408125
What about this guy? Not saying it's the superior side, but it sounds somewhat decent

The best 480 is the one that you can overclock to 1450 without burning your house down. In other words wining the silicon lottery. Sadly I did not on my MSI Gaming X. Best I can get is 1390 and even then it's touch and go and demands high voltage and temps.

Just wait til Nvidia releases the GTX 970 to compete with the RX480, amdrones, just wait...

Yeah, I know 8gb is pointless and I only ever expect it to reach 6gb at most maybe.

But what I like about the 470 is it's quiet and cooler at load than the 480.

I wish there was a list of games confirmed to be developed with a vulkan option.

To get one for £190 with 8gb would be great, thought shame about the lack of backplate for easier cleaning.

Choice between the trade agreement or being shilled about immigrants, not that the immigrants most had a problem with were EU nationals anyway.

Also more sovereign control, admittedly the raises in things outside of currency will sting a little but most of the benefits of the EU were seen as for the middle class (travel, study abroad), or science and research (not valued enough in comparison.
