Guy's just wanna confirm 7970 and 280x not much of a difference right except for Mantle? I can get a Windforce 7970 for 550 and a vapor-x/asus 280x for 700. Is it worth the price difference to go for the 280x?

QUOTE(Acid_RuleZz @ Feb 23 2015, 03:49 PM) 280x is just a higher clocked 7970. Everything else is exactly the same and performance wise is exactly the same too clock per clock imo. alright thanks might as well go for the cheaper one then haha.Owh mang, i'm gonna buy a new card soon before something else happen to my budget.  Most of my trusted sellers don't have ready stock for Sapphire 290/290x.. maybe will jump side.  |

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.

QUOTE(cstkl1 @ Mar 8 2015, 01:18 AM) 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. 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?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. |

QUOTE(Acid_RuleZz @ Mar 16 2015, 06:05 PM) Worth it imo, but i reckon you can barely overclock it because AMD use HDL to cramp more transistor. whats the expected price? ah thats too bad since it's watercooled.This post has been edited by siles1991: Mar 16 2015, 06:44 PM |
