I know nothing about anything but I have too much money to care.

Should I get a GTX1080 or 3xRX480?

How good will Vega be over RX480 anyways?

>3xRX480

Are you serious?

Never rely on CF/SLI when you can rely on a single powerful card.
CF/SLI is a meme tech full of shitty drivers, no supported games, microstutters, framedrops, and dumb shit.

It's not too bad these days.

I was running two GTX460's in SLI for awhile and most all games I played ran fine with no issues.

I got them on sale as well $150 each I think and combined they had nearly the same performance as a 480 on 1080p games.

>Sli/Crossfire
>no issues

top kek

> all the games he played
Quite possibly. Doesn't mean there aren't issues, just means he didn't have any. Chill.

Yeah, that's being disingenuous and pretending that SLI/Crossfire doesn't have issues.

Ever tested it yourself on a range of games within the last 3 generations?

Or do you just fall for meme's on Sup Forums?

>Range of games
If it doesn't have a CF/SLI profile it won't even run with two cards.

NEVER GO AMD

What do you mean?

All he said is that he didn't have issues. Maybe the games he played had SLI profiles. He never said SLI doesn't have issues.

Got source to back that up?

Cause I played plenty that don't have profiles.

desktop i5 i7 for 2way sli
from 6 core to go on for three way SLi, otherwise you wouldn't have enough PCI lanes (your sistem can't handel all the power of the cards.)
i have a 770 sli, and sometimes it stutters, i will buy a 1080 when the custom models will be commercialized

I have a 6700K i7.

But I wonder about performances of Vega.

>nearly the same performance as a 480 on 1080p games.

Wow, so your shitty poorfag PC managed to handle quake live. Turns out we were wrong about SLI/Cfire all along lads.

>Wow, so your shitty poorfag PC managed to handle quake live

Sup Forums please

> can't refute claim
> better make assumption
You people are the worst

with the i7 you should only consider a 2 way sli/crossifire.
With Vega you mean Sony Vegas?
If yes itr supports SLi or crossfire, but i would do a simple reasoning:
You take a powerful card now, and you obtain the power of the crossfire of three lesser cards
With a single card, in the future you can always buy another card, at an inferior price, and almost double your power, and that is something you can't do you buy from the beginning middle-low range cards. that's what i would do, and what i will do

>With Vega you mean Sony Vegas?
He means Vega

get sum nice fans

what ? vega from amd own mouth will have 155 to 18 billion transistors how do you even compare them to anything ? vega is meant to be on enthusiast level shit nothing to do with 1080 or 480 or whatever else

> vega is meant to be on enthusiast level
Are you implying the GTX 1080 is not enthusiast level?

hmm lets see
>only 8% faster than fury x on dx12
>only 10-11% faster on dx11 of 980ti oc 15 non oc
>using 2013 games to showcase the awesomeness of the card
>clearly being a cut version even the white papers is showing it
>pricing it as an enthusiast level card
>1080ti variant will come
>titan or whatever they will call it will come
>people thinks its an enthusiast level card

Not the first guy but I also have a CF setup
I'm not a game tester but I can confirm I never had a problem with CF.
DX12 and Vulkan will support multi GPUs and use what called SFR(Split Frame Rendering) This should stop all the current multi GPU problems.

This meme needs to die.

HD5770 crossfire here running perfectly fine for gta v and bf4.

>I dont have Crossfire but let me tell you how shitty it is and why I hate it.

Sup Forums consensus

If you want high end, buy custom gtx 1080

If you want mid end, buy custom rx 480

Don't fall for the /wait/ meme

Reference or "founder edition" looks pretty damn nice though?

yeah till it reaches 82c
then

And pretty damn hot too. I would never buy those. Customs have better cooling, better overclockability and better designs.

Another meme to avoid: The PREMIUMâ„¢ meme. I fucking hate when they use that word.

3xRX480 for maximum AESTHETICS
