Vega 56 is 210w TDP and if it's 20% faster than a 1070, then it's competing with the 180W GTX 1080
>>
>>386013949
these are literally only rumored benchmarks, all of this is speculation. 20% would be nice but it isn't enough to justify the fucking millennia since pascal launched. Everybody that wanted to buy something with performance around a 1070 bought a 1070 already, and everyone that's waited for vega would benefit from either buying a used 1070/80 or waiting for volta.

>As long performance is relevant and price is great it doesnt matter
shame the price isn't great but only passable. If it was $300-350 then it would be a no brainer, but if these benchmarks turn out to be unrepresentative of the final product then a mere $50 price drop for a very considerable increase in power consumption doesn't seem very attractive.
>>
>>386015097
They won't, they need margins to survive.

everyone always brings up freesync, but they never mention the ranges on the majority of cheaper displays. By the time you move up to a decent high-refresh rate panel with an effective range, you're already in g-sync pricing.

>>386016471

Be honest now.

You guys are using your 1070s and 1080s on mostly Dota, overwatch and LoL.

Rest of the time is spent getting high benchmarking scores and posting it on /v/.

Im really curious to see Wolfenstein and Far Cry 5 benchmarks with use of that FP16 thingy.
>>
>>386017235
No one here actually plays video games. People watch shitty twitch streams for 80% of their free time and call themselves gaymers.
>>
>>386017240
There's nothing special about FP16, just more perf for compute heavy effects that don't require full precision.
For example, smoke.
>>
>>386012159
I would have gotten one. Fuck.

My 8 year old PC up and died a little while back and I had to build a new one but this was directly in the middle of the crypto currency bubble when everything from a 1060 to a 1080ti was $600-700 so obviously I got the 1080ti. Thing is I rarely use that much power. I was playing Witcher 3 in 4k/60 but the 4k didn't really add much at my view distance, I turned it down to 1080/60 since why bother when the difference is so small? I guess I "future proofed" for 1080p but it's a little ridiculous.
>>
>>386017029
freesync is definitely better for the lower end, but people have been waiting for a 1070 competitor for 144hz at 1080p/1440p. At that point the difference in price begins to level out. Never said every monitor was the same, if you compare the cheapest gsync and freesync displays you'll have trouble finding ranges for the freesync panels, kinda seems like a smart move by the manufacturer.
>>

>>386017735
>a 1070 competitor for 144hz
1070 can't do that, 1070 avg fps is 1080 min fps

It's a rather long explanation but the short of it is I need a large TV sized (50-55") monitor since I'm not the only one viewing it and the only monitor in that size (UHD550) with good latency also happened to be a 4k/60.

Reminder that AMD's drivers suck and are now slower than drivers that were thrown together on Linux by college students and guys in their spare time.

It will be interesting to see how much faster Vega is as the open drivers continue to get faster, and Nvidia's drivers for the 10** series cards get slower once the 11** series is released.

No Rise of the Tomb Rider runs well on pc. Atleast did on mine. And I also watched the dumb video because my friends are retarded. The reason why Tomb Raider did not really run was because it is so VRAM hungry with its textures and kept choking the cards.

Backlight bleed is a defect which pretty much every single one of those IPS has, you might get one with minimal BLB if you exchange your panel 3-5 times.

IPS glow isn't a defect, it's a feature all IPS panels have to some extend. Those fast gayman ones tend to have a lot of that.

BLB - yellow light at the edges of the screen, usually only seen on black background. IPS glow is silvery, seen on darker backgrounds and changes position as you move your point of view. They put a special film on the more expensive IPS TVs that prevents that glow, but they don't do it for those monitors.

Well, desu with you bro, I have a Kabylake Alienware R4 with GTX1080 *second gaming notebook*, but I travel abroad A LOT from work, so I much rather prefer a notebook.

Got a brand new refurb on warranty for ca. 1700 USD (not kidding, I have a weird source for tech who gets a hold of some 'hot stuff' if you know what I mean).

When at home, I connect it to either a monitor/speaker system or 65' OLED TV for some console'like games.
>>
>>386021546

BF1 is fine; so is BF4 (I play both alternatively).

Truth be told, I mainly purchased it because it was practically a steal (as explained in my post above), as well as an upgrade from 780M (OC'ed nonetheless) so I could enjoy newer games at ULTRA instead of high/med.
>>
>>386021823

I still play bf4 but got bored of Bf1 months ago. Mostly due to lack of guns and better ww games like Ro2.

I dunno, there's been a decent performance gain for every new GPU generation over the last few years. With the 4k and high framerate gaining popularity, there's been a high demand for increasingly more demanding GPUs. Compare this to CPU market where Intel have been producing chips with +2% difference with the last year's models. Sure, GPU prices have been on the rise but you can't deny you're at least getting an increased performance at reduced power consumption for what you paid.

If you're buying Nvidia cards yes, you should always make sure you have the latest and greatest card.

AMD on the other hand, its not that bad buying a year old card. It will be faster, more stable, and unlike Nvidia who can introduce code that slows their old cards down with nothing users can do about it AMD's good drivers today are developed in the open with lots of input from third parties and the ability to reject intentional slowdown patches and fix unintentional regressions.

If you don't live in a shithole, consider uneven backlight bleed to be a defect.
So once you get a monitor, test it, return under warranty, and then reject the purchase if it turns out its a problem inside the series.
>>
>>386023404
It is a defect. It's just a defect most of those IPS panels have.

IPS glow is not a defect and it bothered me way more, anyway.
>>
>>386023520
So it would be a better idea to just get a TN panel instead when going for 1440p144hz?
>>
>>386020475
AU Optronics is shitty company with non-existent QC. I wouldn't bother with any of their matrices unless you're willing to return the monitor multiple time until you get a decent one. Still waiting for any other company to produce a quality 1440p@144 panel so I could finally upgrade. I just cannot go back to TN after using 1200p@60 for the last 10 years
>>
>>386023520
Some Backlight Bleed & good contrast, is by itself is a feature.
Uneven backlight bleed all over, completely uneven? Manufacture defect.

>>386023603
Nothing is stopping you from reading the pixel blending time that is reported, even if they report for the wrong value, meaning it bleeds more.
That said, its pretty faulty on both IPS and TN. You basically wanting 144hz + strobing.

All the monitor drama just makes me miss CRTs.

>>386023210
The performance delta between Windows and Linux comes from porting games built for DirectX 11 with its extremely non-standard, but well optimized code paths to OpenGL which requires very different code design for efficient operation.
With Vulkan games can be brought over more easily and with less performance degradation since its lower level by design as seen in this benchmark of the Linux exclusive Vulkan version of Mad Max pitting the unofficial Mesa RadV Vulkan driver vs Mesa RadeonSI OpenGL.
Don't think that RadeonSI is slow either, its now the fastest OpenGL driver available for AMD hardware on any platform and actually keeps up with and even surpasses Nvidia's OpenGL driver.
RadV is actually the one that's still slow and immature.
>>
>>386023603
It depends. IPS glow doesn't bother some people, and IPS does have better colors, though modern 8-bit TN aren't terrible either. Try going to a store and maybe ask them to show you IPS and TN displays from different angles and with lighting. Ask them about their return policy, too.

>>386023702
>AU Optronics is shitty company with non-existent QC
Shouldn't actual display manufacturer do the QA for BLB? Because well, it's they who affix the bezels to the panel. But AOC, Acer and Asus are perfectly fine with selling you monitors with ridiculous levels of bleed. At least AOC is cheap, what's the other two companies' excuse?
>>
>>386024092
I've heard some good things about ViewSonic xg2703-gs display which also uses the AUO panel but they actually do some binning so the result is better than asus/acer. It's more expensive though
>>
>>386023921
>Graphics Preset: Low
>>
>>386019440

How is it a shitty console port?
>>
>>386024224
There are actually two version of those AUO panels, something-something.0 and something-something.3. I think Acer XB270HU uses the latter? It's supposedly better, but who knows.

As long as you can return it if you don't feel satisfied, it's worth a try.
>>
>>386024241
RadV is still very immature, it was only a month or two old when that benchmark was run. It still had some major issues with some of the shaders used at higher settings.
For two guys in their spare time it was amazing. So amazing Valve has since hired a bunch of people to work on it and its rapidly picking up feature support and even greater performance.

3 years ago u could get a 970 or 290 for 300 bucks

This is mostly due to no competition on 1070 and up, looks like 1070 is getting btfo by vega 56 though

Also high end cards are fucked, instead of 500 bucks for the top end like the gtx 580 and previous the high end is now 700-1200

Vega looks very good and attractive for content creation. The problem is that that means the gaming part of the card ended up being lackluster because they can't make a miracle that's amazing at both.
It still seems like RX Vega 56 will be a good value card for gaming however that will last a decent while before you would need to upgrade again.

Sure, but by 2015 you could get a 970/290 for as much as you can get the 480/1060 now (or at launch at least, before the mining craze).

We got something close to a 10% increase in performance with the new mid-range, and prices didn't improve much beyond 30 to 50 usd.
