Nvidia wins again, RX 480 can't even beat the gimped LAST GEN 970.
This is why I buy Nvidia.
I want to support the company with the best engineers, creating the best hardware and software that just seamlessly works together.

Is it second hand? How much for the TI?
Adam Torres
Yes.
Dominic Lee
I have no affinity, but a legit question: gimping cards? As in purposefully making performance go down? This is a thing?
Brayden Butler
no
Luke Hill
well no SLI for me...
Adam Nelson
Yes, second hand, not TI
Blake Anderson
Yes and no.
AMD cards increase in performance over time as AMD fixes their drivers even for older cards.
Nvidia doesn't do driver optimisations on anything but their latest gen.
So the overall effect is that it looks like nvidia cards are being gimped
The only proven gimping nvidia have been doing is to AMD cards
Jonathan Miller
Nah that's a shit price, when you can buy a brand new one for £276.
Leo Perez
Yes.
Just look at any Quadro and GeForce card manufactured after 2010.
Nvidia now purposefully adds additional hardware to cards in order to prevent softmodding GeForce cards into Quadros.
Adrian Morales
Nvidia's more recent drivers get worse performance on older hardware than older drivers on older hardware do.
Basically nvidia intentionally gimps their older hardware to push you towards buying new hardware.
Nathan Carter
I think you're misconstruing not optimising for gimping. There's a world of difference.

i feel depressed now. i had high hopes, but turns out it's pretty shitty. the only thing you get by buying rx480 is 8gb vram. and burned mobo, it seems: RIP AMD.
