So how many times has this happened now? >Bulldozer >GCN

>>60097833
Ryzen and GCN don't belong in that list

>>60097855
Dont give the obvious bait (Yous)

>>60097867
tbf bulldozer, fury and to some extent polaris do belong in that list.

>>60097833
Polaris is the best at midrange and budget right now though
and Ryzen is good

>>60097833
>ryzen and polaris
>disappointing
keep shilling, goy xD

those are powerful products at very competetive prices.

the only reason they are not widespread is because intel and nvidia are monopolizing OEMS by making backdoor deals, like microsoft.

It hasn't happened with Ryzen. Don't be an idiot.

No (you) for you.

>>60098411
no
it's because intel has been better for a long time and AMD is only now coming back
Same goes with Nvidia, except they still dominate the high end market, having no competitor

>>60097895
>Polaris
How so? It's exactly as promised. A decent, cheap mid-range card to compete with the 1060.

>Fury
To some degree. It was held back by 4GB VRAM.

>>60097833
what a shit list

godlike:
> K8
> R300

great:
> K7
> GCN
> Ryzen

OK:
> K10
> Polaris
> TeraScale (VLIW5/VLIW4)

lackluster:
> Jaguar/Bobcat
> Fiji

crap:
> Bulldozer

Naples and HEDT Ryzen will be at least "great" and potentially even "godlike".
Vega is still anyone's guess though.

>>60098681
>godlike
>R300

ROOOOOOOOOFL

>>60098681
>Polaris
>ok
It was lackluster

Fucking mods are too shit to ban this autistic shitposter and his bait threads.

>>60098740
> dustbuster owner detected

Ryzen is great and Polaris is exactly what every non retard expected it to be.

>>60097833
Except Ryzen has been very successful for anyone who wants an 8 core 16 thread processor without paying $1000? It also completely stomps the i5 line up

>>60098740
The 390 now destroys the 970

>no RV700 in Godlike
>no Evergreen in God Emperor-tier
>no K6-2 in great tier

>>60098681
>>60100277
TeraScale as a whole should be bumped up to Great. Not sure that RV700 and Evergreen/HD 5000 series should get their own entries, but they were bretty gud.

K6-2 also clearly Great, but that goes back a while. AMD and ATI made good things pre-K7, but that goes back over 15 years.

Three words. Neural. Net. Branch. Predictor.
I don't give a shit if the rest of the architecture is dick, this shit is pretty fucking impressive on its own. MOESIF cache coherence would make this GOAT, but that's theoretical anyway.

>indecisive between 960 and 380
>decide to go nvidia because everyone says 380 is a rebranded house fire with shitty drivers
>380 goes on sale
>fuck it, it's just a graphics card
>buy 380
>my card still outperforms any 960 and I didn't have to blow $200 extra in a g-sync monitor
That's the story of how I learn not to listen to /g/

>>60098740
>>60099391
>They think R300 is the R9 300 series
Get out

>>60098681
Jaguar was actually very good

>>60098681
Out of GCN Hawaii and especially Tahiti deserve a mention, Tahiti could do a 35% overclock and still has decent performance for a 2011 GPU to this day.

>>60097833
lol

> 2014
> buy Radeon 7850
> use it 3 years

> 2017
> buy RX 470 because the 7850 only has 2GB RAM
> probably end up using it for 3 years or more since it's got 8GB RAM

>>60101297
Probably shoulda gone for the 480 8gb though for the extra cores

4gb rx460
>exactly what I needed, single complaint is release driver quality. No longer an issue

Amd is fine, read the specs

Except AMD have clearly fucked up with their idea of "mid range" because there are more 1080s on steam than 480s

I know steam isn't an idea representation, but it is shocking.

Though Nvidia have memes and marketing on their side.

>Except AMD have clearly fucked up with their idea of "mid range" because there are more 1080s on steam than 480s
Fucking Fermis outsold Evergreen according to Steam.

>>60102122
True, with the money you "save" by buying an AMD card you can get enough cash to buy a 1080 in about 6 months.

>>60102122
>And performance. Amshit uses less power than a 1080 in a card faster than a 1060
FTFY

>>60102256
>most cases*
>*gameworks titles with x64 tesselation

>>60097833
how's that autism champ?

>>60102256
Except both of those are bullshit, unless you're looking at benchmarks comparing the 480 at release. If you think 120 is less than half of 165, you need to go back to primary school

>>60098511
>To some degree. It was held back by 4GB VRAM.
No it's held down by god awful geometry engine.

Thanks for the laugh

>>60102326
You're a lying, retarded, goatfucking piece of shit.

>>60102326
Didn't Nvidia shills spam /g/ that a 6 pin GPU can't pull more than 125W?
How's that TDP possible then?

THANK YOU BASED MODS

HAHA YES DIE YOU FUCKING PAJEET DIE
Now i can properly discuss Zen. Or Vega. Whoa. Thank you mods.

>>60102105
This, the PC gaming master race meme has grown so much in recent years, I see so many kiddy redditors buying 1080s and above to play minecraft on 1080p screens.

For AMD polaris was pretty successful, cheap to produce, made them some money, allowed them to invest more into ryzen as it was approaching release, then focus on vega later.

Just like HD3000 back in the days.

>>60102647
From what I recall HD3000 wasn't particularly successful.

>>60104110
It sold somewhat decently and have ATi/AMD time to cook R700.
