Is there any reason for me to go for a 1070 over a 480 when I only play weeb shit and emulators at 1080p?

From what it seems, it looks like the perfectly 1080p card.

RX 480 is like the perfect card for you, my dude.

Benchmarks generally don't lie, hype/meme-trains do. Be it AMD, Nvidia or the fucking pope.

That's what it seems, skipping 1440p and waiting for decent

>OC 480 up 20%

>980ti/1070 for $199

Where where you when 480 BTFO 1070?

From the benchmarks released the 1070 is looking to be the best 1440p card yet
We don't know much about the 480 but it looks like the new max settings value card for 1080p

The more niche things you do, the less you should use AMD. AMD doesn't have the resource to cater for niche stuff.

Once I did something really niche like running Boom Beach in an Android Emulator, AMD GPU didn't render correctly, but Intel and Nvidia was okay.

...

Nope go for the 480

Both are 1440 cards. You'll be absolutely fine with either.

I'd suggest AMD because, obviously, $199, lower tdp, async, less gayman aesthetics, no gimping after a year. Might want to get the $230 for the 8gb version but eh.

Should I sell my 390 for a 480 or 1070?

Btw I play minecraft on 640x480 monitor. I need a powerful gpu to play my minecraft.

Emulators are mostly CPU-bound anyway, right?

1080 for 1080p.

Only if you play at native res with no AA.

When you want to re-render with AA, that uses GPU power.

A friend just offered me his 390x for $200 so he can get a 1070. Do I take the offer and use the 390x, sell the 390x on eBay and get a 1070 or just buy a RX 480? I'm leaning towards keeping the 390x for myself to save the hassle.

I'm only gaming at 1080 with no plans to upgrade anytime soon btw

Not an awful lot though. I can play anything in Dolphin rendered at 4K with MSAA using a mere GTX 780.

Buy a 480. Less than half the power consumption for the same performance give or take before the next driver updates.

You shouldn't buy it at all. It's a bad deal with the 480 coming soon offering more performance for the same price whilst using half the power.

The 780 is still a fairly beefy card.

Not to mention many emulators are beign worked on now that will use more power than Dolphin.

Xenia(360), RPCS3(PS3), and Citra(3DS)

Cemu(WiiU) is so flawless it'll run a toaster though, fucking wizards likely using stolen code(hence why closed source)

I say wait for the reviews for the RX 480 and non reference 1070s. Both look good, but that's the advertising talking.
