I was kinda mad cause i just gave up on it and went gaming x. I had a strix in cart but didnt pull trigger. next day shipping would have been monday at that time of day.
Getting my gaming x today. whatevs

[jinkazama]

it did. I had it on auto notify and woke up to it saying it had been removed from my car due to stock limitations ;(

[jinkazama]

Everything back in stock now, plus an MSI card with built in waterblock http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127942

ouchies

[jinkazama]

mother fucker, by the time I built everything it was sold out and removed. thats horse shit ;(

[haroldsaxon]

After seeing the prices for the 1070 in the UK, fuck that.

What's the damage international?

Supposedly leaked benchmark

*NOTE* The 480 in this is underclocked, running at 1080 Mhz, final product is expected to run at 1267. So at full speed it could be squarely in the Fury/980ti range at a $200 price point if this is true.

[Arkanna]

This could be a huge coup for AMD if it ends up true. AMD needs a product that's a good performer as well as a great value, in a big way. I'm not for team red or team green either way, I just want sustained competition to keep our options wide open for years to come. Now here's also hoping Zen ends up better than I expect... but that's a topic for a different thread.

[DrClout]

I wasn't expecting huge results as it always seemed to me that they preferred dual card setups versus the "single-gpu solution" but that's seems really underwhelming to me.

Unless of course, there is something I'm really missing.

[Krandor]

You have to look at it from a price/performance ratio. $200 for max/ultra 1080p60fps is some serious shit. It hugely opens up the performance of budget minded builds, bringing max spec 1080p builds down into the sub 600-700 range.

Yeah it's not exciting for people chasing the uberest of the uber, but it's AMD going for the throat in what is by far the largest market for GPUs

[DrClout]

Okay, that's probably the perspective I'm missing. I suppose the shock factor was that it's better than a R9 390 but still not equal to or greater than a 980Ti. I was expecting a few benchmarks to be much closer in range. But you can't really argue with the price point with the performance as you said.

The kind of hardcore nerds who would frequent this thread are obviously pretty hype about the 1070/1080, but the $200 and under range of cards pushes substantially more units then the high end models.

AMD flying right underneath Nvidia with a potentially MASSIVE performance increase in that area is pretty exciting in quite a few areas. It feeds AMD some much needed capital, it hopefully generates some great competition when Nvidia starts digging into that range, and as Prothescar has said, it shows exciting potential for the future of consoles (as well as likely more mid range laptops). To say nothing of what we might see when AMD gets around to targeting the enthusiast market, assuming the higher end hardware sees similar gains from the 14nm architecture.

I'm Nvidia fanboy but this is needed so bad. I wish AMD would wreck Nvidia but it doesnt seem to be happening soon. Needs more competition to fuel more advancement of tech and keep prices low. Nvidia just fucked everyone with their founders edition bullshit and they are getting away with it too thanks to AMD's lack of presence.

[Arkanna]

They didn't fuck everyone ... they only fucked the people who are too impatient to wait for AIB cards to come to market.

[Adajer]

AIBs are typically $20 more than ref.

Most are $50-$80 more now

[Kalmado]

Which is why I'm going to wait. And I'm cheap. Honestly, it's so tempting to do xfire 480s @$400 and pocket the extra $245 from selling my 2x390x (sold both for $645). I'm going to hold out to see what the 490 will be like and the other stuff. Worse case I can play my PS4.

Give it time.

that is a 1070

normal 1070 are prices $379. That onei s marked up $40

[Kalmado]

I'm still interested in how bad the used market will tank. I'm sure it will be another 2-3 months, but if the rx 480 is that huge of a value I'd expect the 390(x) and 970(980) to wildly tank. This should also effect cards such as the 780(ti), R9 280(x), etc. I almost bit on a Gigabyte R9 290x for $170 after rebate/tax at my local Micro Center but just couldn't do it. I have a Sapphire 7970 Vapor-X on the way as a holdover that I paid $110 for. Should be interesting how bad that tanks as well.
