So much for reaching 1070 performance with 1600Mhz OC. Review cards aren't making it past the 1400Mhz mark

'bout what I figured.

AMDrones are completely delusional.

Once the reality check hits them next wednesday they may start killing themselves.

480 at 1266 MHz is about 95% of stock GTX 980 performance. 1400 Mhz is 10% overclock which is not much. That means a GTX 970 at ~1500 Mhz will be just as fast if not faster than a 480. A 980 at the same clocks will leave the 480 in dust.

I'm sorry, but you are just expecting too much from a 200$ card.

top fucking kek, looks like it's fiji all over again.

I hit 1900mhz on stock cooler 480.

>1400 Mhz is 10% overclock which is not much
It's actually a 30% overclock. The 480's stock clock is 1080MHz. It's why I figured these wouldn't be great overclockers. Not being able to label 1266MHz as the stock clock says they weren't sure they could even maintain that. Having a $200 card at their top also says it was the most they could push out of it. There was no way this was going to be capable of $400 performance with AMD just being kind enough to underclock it and sell it for half it's worth. They lose millions every quarter. They can't afford charity.

Still not bad for a 200$ card if you have GTX 960 or lower.

>The 480's stock clock is 1080MHz
No it isn't, the stock is 1266

i don't think anyone was expecting the stock reference cards to hit 1600mhz. It is the AIB cards with the 6+8 pin power connectors and better cooling fans/heatsinks that can potentially achieve the 1600mhz clock.

>he thinks a boost clock is a stock clock

AMD cards don't have a boost clock you moron

Kyle was right yet again.

>AMD Radeon RX 480 failed to OC to 1400 MHz

>Like I said 2 days ago, most review samples are having trouble reaching anything beyond 1350 MHz. The highest reported clock is 1379 MHz. The member of the PCGamesHardware team confirmed that their sample did not reach 1400 MHz.

IT'S OVER, AYYMD IS FINISHED & BANKRUPT

AYYMD HOUSEFIRES
AYYMD HOUSEFIRES EVERYWHERE

KYLE WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG

AYYMDPOORFAGS CONFIRMED ON SUICIDE WATCH

nvm, they do, but it's still shit

FINISHED AND BANKRUPT

We doubted him all along
AMD CONFIRMED FOR BANKRUPT BY TOMORROW

So, it's literally all over again.
NVIDIA won again.

Everyone go home.

It must be just a straight rebrand again, except for the die shrink. Meanwhile Nvidia cards are hitting 2000 mhz+

Pushing over 9000 niggawatts through a small die will make it impossible to cool no matter what because there simply isn't enough heat transfer area. It could also be unstable at high clocks because of its architecture. No cooling or voltage will fix that if the signals can't propagate fast enough at >1400 Mhz

No they won't, haven't you guessedo their pattern?

They will nitrogen cool & OC one, test in ashes of singularity and compare against stock 970 to claim victory.

Why does anyone even bother with these threads? What do people get out of this?

are you retarded? the 1070 isn't a mid range card

5 rupees per post :^)

>480 is a shrunk 390 which is just a rebranded 290

>They will nitrogen cool & OC one, test in ashes of singularity and compare against stock 970 and still somehow lose

No matter, you can get two to beat a 970!

Ask the AMD poorfags who were claiming the 480 would have 1080 performance. When you're barraged by that level of baseless shilling for weeks, it's satisfying to see them get their comeuppance.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I TRUSTED RAJEET

When will my 3570K become a bottleneck?

I got one which can't be overclocked...

Should I just stick with my 390 or should I try to sell it for the price of an 8gb 480

definately sell it for that sidegrade bruh

AMDPOORSHIT RX480 confirmed to loose against stock GTX970.

MY FUCKING SIDES ARE IN ORBIT

Told your motherfuckers Samshit's 14nm process is junk and there's a good reason why only AYYMD uses GloFo and the rest of the industry uses TSMC for mass production, but no, lets believe in the Pajeet and AYYMD

i'm crying irl right now

it isn't fucking fair bros.

>AMDrones thinking it would actualy be 1070 levels of performance

>kept telling them if that was true there would be no way AMD would price it at 200$

>actual benchmarks come out and it turns out it's just a rebranded 390 with better power effiency

why would you compare a 200 bucks card with a 450 card?

it's no a rebrand if it has
- different litography
- different shader count
- hdmi 2.0

Because AMD fanboys said it would be equal performance

These just keep getting pushed further and further away from reality, the 480 is supposed to be around about 390/390x performance

>mfw rx480 @ 1.3ghz still trounces the gtx980

Stock 980 maybe, not an oc'd one, Maxwell was one of the best overclocking architectures

>GCN
>8 stage pipeline
>expecting highclocks

How many times do you retards need to be told? The sweet spot for every GCN card ever made has been right around 800mhz to 850mhz, and process has nothing to do with it. Its a trait of the architecture itself, it is not a high clocking arch. Hitting 1150mhz-1250mhz is already incredibly high for a stock clock.

So it's going to compete against a 970 on the best case scenario?

Top fucking lel

well, if it is close, it would be great, if not, why do you care?

it only would be fair to compare it to a similar price bracket card, when and if there is a 1060/1050

Its going to replace the 970 since the 970 isn't in production anymore.

Thats the only point. The R9 390 and GTX 970 are considered to be the base line minimum recommended GPUs for VR. That is entry level VR performance.

That is why AMD stressed the RX 480 as being a cheap entry level VR card. Thats all it is. Everyone making these claims of competing with the GTX 1070 are just FUD spreading children.

It's not going to be close, are you fucking delusional?

only way AMD is gonna get ahead is if they invent the next gen technology for gfx cards

even then nvidia will just copy them and make better cards

If you care about performance any higher than that then I wouldn't expect you to understand why anyone would be interested in the 480

When will AMDrones stop moving the goalpost?

1/10

Rx480 prerelease BIOS are set to prevent more than 1380mhz OC.

After launch expect at least 1600mhz OC for reference cooler cards.

Lol, you shills never give up

>Rx480 prerelease BIOS are set to prevent more than 1380mhz OC.
Nigger what the fuck is the point of that? Especially on the reviewer samples?

Overclocked krippler 3.0 with less ipc than a 980 ti somehow

>1380 mhz drawing 137 watts, memory alone will eat about ~30 watts
>max wattage is 150 with a 6 pin
>undoubtably hitting the board limit with just the 6 pin

wait til the 8+6 pins come out you silly geese

What are you trying to say

TDP is not power consumption, sherlock.

Based on early benchmarks RX 480 seems like a solid card for $200. AMD seems to be focusing on mid-range which would make sense since they are making a lot of mid-range chips for locked down gaming PCs. Also that segment is probably bigger profit-wise than the high end.

>people actually believed currytech

At least in dx11 mode.

>omg, some post on a forum says so
novidias straw man arguments are getting worse with time

>mfw ncucks will reply to this post with amdrone shit

>expecting the 6 pin reference to hit its full potential

what are you OP, retarded?

Prevent leaks

>he thinks they're current regulated

75W + 75W is all they're allowed to draw and still call themselves "PCI-E." It's not all that can be supplied.

>moving the goalpost
We all know where this is going to end
>wait for vega

In b4 "drivers will fix it."

Wait for navi.

If AMD survives that long

They will actually

When will drivers fix 300~ series shitty overclocking?

Please stop, my sides can only take so much.

Like async or HBM? Doesn't seem to matter much

go back to don't you have a console war to be fighting?

Vega doesn't exist. It's just a shrunken Fiji. Polaris is a shrunken Hawaii.

Nothing but rebranded housefires.

So what is Navi?

What the hell is that guy trying to tell us? Did you translate that with babelfish?

Two shrunken Fijis glued together

Now this is what I call desperation.

So a shrunken pro duo?

>moving the goalpost

>amd sets original goalpost 390x performance
>false flagging nvidiots set new goalpost at 1080 performance
>card reviewers say it has 390x performance
>nvidiots proclaim amd finished and bankrupt

>>false flagging nvidiots
You mean AMD fanboys, who are now backpedalling hard when actual benchmarks show what fucking idiots they were

With a 480?
Nah, not really, depending just how the game is optimized. I got a 390, and the performance levels between my 3570k, and 390 are snuggly paired. Over clocked or not, 3570k is still mighty powerful.

No one has ever said that unironically. Leave that straw man be.

>taking anything posted on Sup Forums seriously

And at only 200% the price!

at 200% the price you get a 1070 retard

Not him, but I've been waiting for a good cooler and 8+6 pin since day one as well. Maybe you're just dumb?

That would be the case if the problem was thermal throttling, it isn't.

You're just tech illiterate

PCGH are known Nvidia shills. I wouldn't trust anything they say.

No, it's power throttling. Which will be solved by extra power connectors and more generous power targets on non-reference cards, like always. Back to Sup Forums, kid.

>like always
You mean like with fiji and Hawaii?

Oh wait

i expect all your apologies when the custom cooler 8+6 cards come out in 3 weeks

Crashing is not "power throttling," and a 6 pin literally does not care about how much power goes through it. It will keep pumping power until the PSU pops or it melts.

why do 8 + 6 pin cards exist then? apparently they can draw all the power they need through a single 6 pin

He said their card couldn't reach 1400 MHz. Also that their office is air conditioned and that noise tests are done in a sound proof chamber.

They're putting an Arctic Accelero Mono Plus on it next to see if they can reach higher clocks with a better cooler.

PCI-E standards

Nope... The spec for 6 pin connectors literally doesn't allow pushing trough anything higher than 75W similarly to how the spec for the 8 pin connector isn't allowed to push trough anything higher than 150W.

God you n/v/idiots are idiots... Of course a card with a single 6 pin connector and stock cooler isn't going to be pushing 1400 MHz when it's stock clock is at 1080 Mhz. I don't think anybody really expected the reference RX 480 to beat the 1070 regardless of how much it could be overclocked. We already know that a non-overclocked reference 480 beats a GTX 970 and comes worryingly close to a GTX 980. As for how much the overclocking will boost the 480, that's something we'll see once the embargo lifts, but it's obviously going to beat a non-overclocked 980.
