thats my plan, i can afford 1070 but I'd rather spend my money on something else, certainly not a stock variant, gonna wait for msi version, taking one for a team, lmao gtx 780 has worse performance than 960 in doom, unlike nV amd doesn't degrade their cards

RX 480 8G listed at about 230 euro.


That price is without VAT. With VAT it's around €287

http://www.guru3d.com/news_story/geforce_gtx_107_and_1080_dvi_pixel_clock_at_330_mhz_issues.html

The reference / founder editions of the 1070 and 1080 has a (bios?) issue making the DVI-D connection broken if you go above a 330 Mhz pixel clock.
(Which seems to correspond to roughly 81 Mhz refresh rate for 1920x1080)

Quote:

A bug for Pascal seems to have surfaced, while it only effects a very small number of end-users, the impact could be serious if you own a high refreshrate monitor that uses Dual-LinK DVI solely.

As it stands right now end-users with a founders edition 1070/1080 card (thus not AIB custom cards) that make use of the dual-link DVI connector could notice problems with booting in-to Windows with pixel clocks set higher at 330 MHz. Now, the circumstances of that happening is slim, VERY slim. The issue was reported on GeForce.com and now is confirmed by multiple end-users.

So basically users are reporting that if the refresh rate on their (dual-link DVI) monitor exceeds 81 Hz (the highest number achievable while staying under 330 MHz pixel clock), they are unable to boot into windows and the welcome screen is replaced by flashing colors on their monitors. They are unable to boot into Windows until the pixel clock returns to a number under 330 MHz. All this means that dome users with an overclocked Korean monitor (Qnix/Yamakasi) as such could be effected. We assume this could be reproduced on any DL-DVI display that surpasses a 330 MHz pixel clock, but most monitors with a pixel clock of 330 or higher simply use something like Displayport.

If you run into the issue, simply use DisplayPort. If you can't, you'll need to boot into safe mode reset your monitor Hz to a lower value (under 81 Hz) and continue + repeat from there on until Nvidia fixes this (if they can fix it).



EDIT: Also the 480 compatible display driver leaked.

http://www.guru3d.com/news_story/raja_koduri_creates_a_bit_of_hype.html

Quote:

RTGs Raja Koduri today creates a bit of hype, likely trying to go viral. He posted a photo which states, Vega 10 Celebration. As you guys know, the Polaris 10 and 11 products that will be empowering the Radeon RX 460, 470 and 480 are to be released soon. However thus far things have been quiet for Radeon RX 490.

That Radeon RX 490 series will be based on a GPU called VEGA 10. Hence this is why his tweet is kinda interesting. Apparantly AMD Radeon Technologies Group (RTG) chief Raja Koduri was in Shanghai last week to meet with one of the design teams of the "Polaris10" and the upcoming "Vega10." Koduri tweeted that development of "Vega10" had just crossed a milestone, although it's a long way to go before you can see it.

AMD was supposed to launch their high-end class VEGA product in early 2017, as it now seems that launch is being moved forward towards October. Vega10 will be the GPU that replaces the Hawaii/Grenada series. Vega should hold HBM2 memory and that's the culprit, it is just not available in volume. Perhaps some stuff now has sorted itself.

[Image]

"Vega10" is lined up to replace the 390 -> 490 series. Vega11 will replace the FIJI Fury parts. Rumors right now indicate that Vega10 has 4096 stream processors and could compete with the GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070. Vega11 on its end would feature 6144 stream processors and would be lined against the GP100 big pascal GPU (think Titan).

[Itty bitty shitty twitter quote in super-small size.]

Quote:

Design team is thrilled with your response.
Celebrated a milestone with the team.
Long way to go before you see it.



Oh. Razz

Also yeah I was under the impression that DVI was almost replaced by HDMI and DP by now but still used on cards for legacy compatibility so most people will probably be able to avoid the 330 pixel-clock DVI issue either via direct HDMI or DP connection or adapter. Smile

i ordered couple of dp to hdmi adapters, using dual setup and one screen has only one free dvi input, so i'm just gonna use hdmi to dp and dvi to hdmi cable, unless of course 480 will have an extra dvi output, then again those adapters are like 1.50 Laughing

It irks me that they are talking about Vega releasing in October like it's a sure thing. The source for that is a random forum post on 3DCenter. There was also that Italian reviewer but his source was wrong about Polaris so his Vega info isn't trustworthy either. Plus, wouldn't this contradict Koduri's tweet? I don't think 3 months is such a "long way to go".

@jbeckman i'd love if they'd get rid off legacy dvi support honestly even the screens i bought over 6years ago don't use dvi anymore and the panels that don't use hdmi are usually cheapy pos (there's a few exceptions but in my book no hdmi = a dead screen for me these days)

i'd rather see 2 hdmi ports replace the 2 legacy dvi ports on alot of cards hell it's not like dvi > dp connectors are that expensive

God no. DVI is still the highest used connector by average people and average gamers.
2 of my 3 my monitors are DVI. They arent bad monitors by any means, not top of the line but the 24" decent display dell ones. just a few years old.
All my sons are DVI connected.
No way Id want to shell out over $100+ dollars to get all active adapters.

Until DVI is truly gone the way of vga plugs, they would shoot themselves in the foot to remove them.

Id be all for it, if they include the adapter you need like they use to with DVI to VGA.
I hate trying to figure out which needs passive, or active adapters depending on what other channels its tied to. Wouldnt be that big a deal to just get active 'incase' if the price difference wasn't like $20 between active and passive adapters.
Like one of mine needs active if I want to use 3 monitors and the vive, while my sons BOTH need active to use 2 displays and the oculus.

dafuq. no. poor people don't upgrade screens until they die. I'm on a viewsonic screen since 2008, and without DVI i'd have to spend the monies saved up for a new gpu, for a monitor. you gotta realize, that outside of the states, people don't treat equipment nearly as disposable as you guys do.

First reviews for the 480 started coming out. The results are... Well. Let's just say I'm glad I bought a 1070 Laughing




Some quotes:

Quote:
The new Radeon is slighty slower than custom oc'd 970 but beats stock 970


Quote:
Reference model we had in test was pretty bad in terms of oc, it overclocked by 5%

That and the 8GB will most probably be the only things it will have going for it.

A shame that they won't release a 480x or 490 anytime soon.
I bet Nvidia will yet again get more shares of the GPU market than AMD.

oh i see Laughing
still wait for a proper tests and reviews from much more reliable sources than kurwastan, even if it is as fast as 970/390 it is still a great news, mainly cause 970/390 will cost much less now, cheapest 970/390 still cost 280 euro's, where 480 4gb should be 200
everyone talks about 1070 and 1080 but how many can actually afford one, most people i know use either 960 or 380 and lower

Zotac gtx 970 OC is as fast as stock 980 so it's all pretty much good and as expected, again 480 is not competing with 1070 for the 123453454564644 of times

of course it's not competing. (again) it's shit, like everyone said for ages now. poor amd and those fanboys. Laughing
hell it may be same as good as a 970 oc on paper or in some current games/benchmarks but just wait for the amd cripple drivers to get the best out of it. or games which are meant to be played with nvidia cards, which are way more then games which are tuned for amd. it will probably fall back then even more.
nice budget card for people who don't want to pay too much, because they can't but that's it. like always.

so glad i did not let me fool from amd or the "hypes" coming from 1-2 people. can't wait for my 1070.

AMDs drivers have a history of getting alot better with time though. Just look at where 290(X) was when it first came out to how it performs nowadays compared to Nvidia.

If your only complaint regarding the reliability is that it's from kurwastan, well than that's just sad. Instead you should question their testing methods and how those numbers came to be. I could point to several shitty american, english or german hardware guides.. It's all about the methodology.

@Freiwald: Well the numbers are based on the drivers that are out now, how is this card going to be any slower with these already released drivers? Laughing It's not shit, you are just on a hyperbole, for the price it's actually a quite great card.
