hmm just worried with the thermal issues with the stock fans, but you never know maybe AMD has a real kick A#S GPU.

At this price can consider buy two for crossfire.
But NVIDIA will release GTX 1060. Dunno how much the expected price and not sure how is it performance.

Now we see why AMD price it around 199USD

if RM800, it still a good buy, but at local market of RM1299, its definitely better to get second hand GTX 970

Some more there is no room for Over clocking.

USD199 is for the 4GB model
8GB is USD239, which is around RM960. Then need to include import tax, GST, slight mark up, etc. So end up around RM300 more sweat.gif

Didn't expect rx480 to be such inferior gpu that can't take on GTX1070 during end of last year where AMD bragged how superior this polaris would be.
Oh, did they say that? biggrin.gif

Well it won't make sense. RX480 is basically R9 390 performance level. GTX 1070 is GTX 980 Ti level.

World of difference.

I suppose this rx480 is improved version of r9 380. Is there rx490?
No, totally different stuff. If it's the "improved version" you won't get R9 390 performance at R7 370 power draw.

Last year's rumor before I buy r9 390x. Many suggested to.wait for rx480 if i'm not interested with fury. This rx480 reminds me of AMD fooling people when launching r9 390 that turned out to be same old Hawaii architecture gpu that is improved version of r9 290. I suppose this rx480 is improved version of r9 380. Is there rx490?

You have been fooled, thats for sure, but not by AMD.
You have been fooled by rumors and your own expectation.
Also, pretty sure that R9 390 have been known to be a Grenada gpu long before its release, I am not sure what and how do you expect it to be any different.

RX 480, as it name implied, is a replacement for R9 380 with a much more attractive price point, performance and power draw.

For us, Malaysian, A RM1.3k for GTX970 tier GPU with 8GB of ram is a damn good deal.

At that price you might as well get GTX 1070.

This is correct. Unfortunately many people don't see that.

The price to performance ratio is superb, it's just that at this pricing it's not as attractive as what it could be.

It is still good to get 2pcs RX480 to crossfire.
The price around RM1,299x2 = RM2,598 can beat a single GTX1070 RM1,999 (Palit GTX1070 Jetstream)
However, the power consumption is 437watt for RX480 crossfire and 236watt for GTX1070
You need to buy at least 700watt PSU to support the two cards.

cross fire you will get severe temp issue since the gpus are sandwich close together.
More power = more heat. unless you going to spend a bomb on water cooling its just not practical.
Maybe in the future there will be better 3rd party vendor cards with better cooling. thx
