i'm starting to doubt what I should do now OTL, I have RM700 in my bank account now I don't know if I should wait for the new 3xx's to come out or just get a 2nd hand 7970/280x. Any advice? By the time 3xx's come out prolly can bump my budget up to RM1000.

well when nvidia launches the full maxwell and later the nerfed titan X with 6gb.. the 980 will drop close to 970 prices and 970 will go down.

so wait.

390x pricing will depend on how good the titan x is. If it exceed. It wont be cheap. Wont be suprised if it beat the titan x and pricing is at 2.5k.
AMD/NVIDIA pricing is reflective of each other on where they sit on the charts unless there is a workstation combo which titan x is not. Since compute this time is nerfed.


290/290x will be rebranded to 380/380x. and hence forth.

Dont see the 290 price change and a new 380 rebrand might actually cost more in the beginning. Just like what happen to 280x vs 7970ghz.

anyone using asus 280x matrix?
was wondering if any of the user have these kind of temperature

was just playing evolve and the temps can go up to 90 degrees

that game is generally the same as what you get in crysis 3 but because the AA on it is not as crazy you get higher fps. is ure clocks stable. youre hitting at the power target. and ure fan profile is default. so max ramp normally 60-85%

I guess it'll be quite a long time for the 380 rebrand to reach the same "price level" as the 280x is at the moment? So what do I wait for right now? The 970 to drop in price?
*
280x price went down already. the 290x now should be the cheapest. When 380x launch will be more.

Again this is all assuming the 390x is between the titan X and the nerfed version of it. If it beats both hands down. Expect 390x not be cheap.

play enough 100-120fps.. 60fps is slow, 30 fps just kill me. Try it with a high refresh rate monitor.

So 390x is a beefed up 290x with 8gb gddr5 n higher speed mem
Same as titan x is to a 980.

N fury is a hbm version of 390.

So question
Is fury or fury x??

Personally what i fear the future will be one sided

Maxwell is akin to time of core2duo for intel. Everybody thought amd will challenge soon.

Amd better not sit on their laurels. They need to make more efficient gpu.
They have lost the desktop cpu, then notebook cpu n igpu and nowhere to be found on small form factor pc/tablets/ultrabook etc.

290x was ok because alot of ppl ignored the power requirement it used.

If they dont challenge nvidia in all levels this time.. I fear whats gonna happen with pascal. Maxwell is a truly incredible jump from kepler.

390x n Fury X or whatever the naming scheme better rise up. Nobody even cares or even bothers on amd cpu refreshes n updates but all know intels roadmap. Lets pray this does not happen with discreet gpu.

the problem is just wasnt from AMD, practically their GPU team are doing fine minus power consumption and heat.

its all go back to their main resources, customers.
there are still people who stuck with "nvidia are better than ati" era.

they basically delivered few new features and doesnt really shy to share with their competitors.
*
so ure sharing all the $you earn with ure neighbors??
dude as i explained before to others

AMD shares thoughts. Just like most ppl share their dream of sharing their dough with everything.
Actual sharing money spend on tech different story.

if we stick with AMD vision
We all will be playing 200fps DX11 console ports

Gameworks giving us new tech that developers has no time to develop to use all that extra FPS.

As for AMD sucking is basically 290x issue with tessalation. Its the key and paramount tech in DX11 and they just like ignored it. As for gameworks using it.. well its the tech for DX11. so..

that being said. This cannot go on with Fury. Already got screwed with 390x. Just a "Enhanced Refresh".

AMD users to me personally at the moment seriously fanatics. Their loyalty is akin to BN supporters. They buy cheaper, Hotter, Uses more power cards to compete with a smaller more efficient NVIDIA.

Nvidia Users are really not fanatics. More like ppl who just want gaming easy. Install game, Let GE scan and optimize. Play Game.

i dont get the first para at all.

totally not just "thoughts" and its way better than just keeping it to your own party instead of maybe get together for better pc gaming development
but no, its amd that need to work out and maybe also need to get down to the same level of playing own "tech games".
then people wonder, would there later be an "_____ exclusive games", fill in the blank with either brand*.

its a small business world, with big azz market and one party tend to kinda play dirty?.
damn i put money based on perfomance/value, but i still have humanity in me.

everyday new people get into all this pc world, and someone somehow keep shoving up all those "nvidia better than ati" bs.
power consumption is basically problem since people need to spend more, but heat?. well this isnt 90's.
*
How is it playing dirty dude. They are investing and is passionate about gaming. 290x if it had better tessalation that its suppose to have would have been slaughtering gameworks.

Lets just look at uniengine. Were they paid to show 290x sux??

Its a dx11 feature. Ure buying into amd excuses.
Even now their ceo few months ago proudly announced a whole new line of gpu. Now we are hearing its only two n rest are enchance refreshes. Like wtf.

Fury performance. It needs to beat or atleast close to titan x 2800 score in 1080p heaven 4.0. If its still bad we already know the tessalation on it sux big time.

Hbm is expensive to be early adopters. Y does amd need it now. They should concentrate on architecture and drivers or do they think amd fanatics will just love it

What i am suprised is how tolerant amd supporters are. Currently they are akin to voters of BN. Ready to pounce on PKR but dont see how they are getting farked by BN. Bad driver update etc.

dude first i am not about the dough. and titan x vs 980ti put price point etc aside. To me 980ti is a failed binning. 6gb maybe enough for ure gaming but aint enough for mine. So again leave that arguement aside if price is always going to be talking point.
IF amd could challenge they will price likewise. Who doesnt want to profit??

My opinion theres more hate on NVIDIA rather than AMD themselves. It seems to be fueled by AMD lack of performance.

Seriously Tessellation is a DX11 main feature.. Does it matter how much tessellation?? As for realism etc.. if that's what it takes to create that. Y frozen had ridiculous amount of hair-count??

Thats a stupid comment about power.

I had up to 3x290x. A 1200 PSU couldnt even boot while a titan X/780ti tri-sli had no issue. The heat amount from it was ridonkeylous. Even a Mora had trouble cooling it on water. As for overclocking. please. The margin you get on Nvidia atm is ridonkeylous.

if 290x had a lot of tessellation power which it should had.. there would be no issue. So many games/benchmarks was out before 290x came out.
They can gauge the need for tessellation performance. Samething Nvidia Gauge giving up double precision in Maxwell had more benefit to single precision based on ppl who buy their cards. So they gave it up. You dont see titan X ppl bitching about double precision??

So Fury or whatever it is called better preform on Tessalation. If it does then ure talking about what 290x should have been.

as for the political comparison.. its was the best analogy i could find.

Free sync.. yeah.. but ure screwed on refresh range .. and was totally lied about the max full range as its based on panel.. panel makers fault. No cf while ure at it.... panel makers fault.
Mantle.... microsoft fault.
Gameworks tesslation....nvidia fault
Profit loss....Fanbase and Nvidia Fault
Drivers....lack of staff fault.
current CEO lied. Nobody cares.

No syngate, Gamegate, DriverGate, Mantlegate.

hence y i put them up as the equivalent to BN.

btw compared to nvidia i actually always test AMD cards. My opinion on its performance is based on what i had tested.

Jeez..tak baik salah sangka yo.I myself like the AMD GPU i use,does that mean i'm an AMD fanboy?N freaking o.
Some people do the settings to their liking.
It pisses me off when someone say "Oh,you use ..... card,so you're a/an ..... Fanboy/fangirl eh."
I see nothing wrong using AMD or NVidia.

If you use AMD/NVidia GPU,you like it and dislike NVidia/AMD GPU..so be it.

Yes,that too.Remember when R9 290 was priced around RM1300-1400?When GTX970 was released for a cheaper price,BAM!Rolled over.

Also most probably a cut down of Fiji XT with fewer stream processors. With cooler that small, i guess the TDP is <150w? Or AMD is pulling 95c again? laugh.gif
I hope the performance is better than 290x though.

Fiji nano
I think its 28xx sp with hbm. Exact spec as 290x with 4gb hbm but gcn 1.2

Hmm that 8.6 teraflops of single compute is no joke.

Looking at the math
4096/2816x5.6= 8.15. So theres extra .45 from fiji that indicates new gcn improvement.

Really need to see the new gcn feature level support. If its tier 3 on all categories seriously interesting.

This card is perfect for a itx build.

Lol hwlabs.. Wilbert didny deny yet confirm.

Those are hwlabs nemesis gts rads.

AMD spared no expense on quality this time. Fark it. I am buying either the quantum or Fury X.

Lets face it. Single gpu 290x was good until it face tessalation issues with new games. Amd blames gameworks.

The revamp tonga showed they cam correct that tesselation flaw.

Seeing theres a indication of a new gcn on fiiji..

If fury x solved it. With that 8.6 teraflops of single compute. Hwlabs rads.. That logo color thingy.. This card is gonna sell.
I am expecting it to dominate 980ti n titan X

So the question now is on vram compression tech.

Over tessellated gameworks.
Tonga tessellation was an improvement but it's only on par/slightly lower with Kepler tessellation anyway.

Did they announced what GCN revision Fiji is on? My stream was extremely laggy last night.
*
No. No info of a new gcn.

Dude tesselation is tessalation. Dont buy into that excuse. Its like we race a drag race n then ure blaming me for winning because of insane amount of torque. My question will be.. Dude we are drag racing so expected..

So dx11 tesselation is a feature. Amd screwed up. Realism is created using that. They comprimised.

Think about it. Amd has to use extra 75 watts to compete with Nvidia. 25 percent more. With that.. The poor tesselation performance is not acceptable. You can see from heaven benchmark. Not acceptable.

Thats a driver feature dude. Drifferent topic.

Think alot of ppl dont know how good hwlabs nemesis rads are. Eks are crap. XSPC etc all mediocre. Hwlabs is the only rad company thats totally focused on pc cooling n all rads are made in their own factory. Everbody else is a oem from china with different housing.

Dude thats a wrong analogy.

Ure suppose to bring a car with insane torque. Not blame that drag racing is unfair.

Gameworks is based on dx11 feature. Tessalation is a feature. It creates realism.

If its overtesselated than y did they make tonga more powerful??

Amd screwed up. They had a 75 watts / 25 percent more power on 290 vs 780ti. It should have gone to tesselation performance.

Samething maxwell 2 sacrificed dp.
