QUOTE(goldfries @ Jun 10 2016, 03:23 AM) And your HD 7950 was a reasonably high-end card. I bought mine for about RM 1.1k range last time. lucky you. I used over 3 years already. no warranty. Bought it when it came out at 1.4k rm My HD 7950 KOed too, shop allowed me to trade with other cards so I went with GTX 960.    |

QUOTE(HurreDurre @ Jun 10 2016, 03:30 AM) R9 380x price with R9 390x performance and R7 370 power draw I'm setting the expectations low, definitely great if can go with the above. Should be R9 380 price. |

i can only hope it is 380 price.. whats to stop them raise till 380x price and if they can still sell like hot cakes initially, why price it lower. so in the end it's up to demand right.

QUOTE(goldfries @ Jun 10 2016, 02:52 AM) RX 480 should be about RM 1200 range, the R9 380X region. I sure hope the performance are on par with GTX 980 or higher than GTX 970. Im looking for options to replace my old ASUS 7950 TOP.Plus im still gaming at 1080p LOL |

QUOTE(HurreDurre @ Jun 10 2016, 02:48 AM) Don't forget the 'Gimpworks' - the urban myth surrounding Nvidia's method of gimping the older generation of card in favor of pushing more sales and support with the newer lineups. Dude, are you serious? no wonder my previous GTX 260 was doing badly when newwer cards came out. It's somewhat true, GTX 770 was better than the 280x on debut, but ever since then the 280x has climbed the rank, beating the GTX 780 in most games and even the 780Ti in DX12 titles. You can fix AMD's buggy launch driver issue, and efficiency issue (which they did with Polaris) But you can't fix the Gimping and and the missing DX12 Async Compute feature. Some says that DX12 is just a fad, kinda like the terrible epic failure of DX10, and will be superceded by DX13 or even going for another API standard Whatever the reason is, it's your money and just get what you want. Just don't be fanboy that is completely oblivious to the pros and cons of your chosen Red / Green team. But Im guessing the issues lies on more driver optimization of latest GPU cores and features that might not be available on older cards. Like the latest API and Async features in latest trends. |

QUOTE(HurreDurre @ Jun 11 2016, 02:19 AM) not refreshed, definitely more efficient, lower power draw and TDP, better performance per watt I sure hope so too, or else my budget of rm1.2k-1.6k gpu gonna be smashed but best case scenario it should perform close to a 390x, not just on par with the 390 i sure hope that benchmark is true, BUT for a 470 Lets see the official ones soon. |

Well R9 390 and R9 390X are pretty close to begin with so I'm fine as long as RX 480 comes to R9 390 performance level.
Like what I said in other place (or was it here) - I'm hoping for R9 380X price (or less) with R9 390 performance (or more) and with R9 380 power draw (less would be better) If AMD hit those points it'll definitely a seller ............. and kill off their own R9 series cards! |

QUOTE(HurreDurre @ Jun 11 2016, 02:26 AM) 8gb version is $229, exactly the same as r9 380x No need rage. In fact you should be happy that the price that people once paid for R9 380X can now acquire R9 390 performance and as a bonus, lower power draw.which after the conversion and shitty gst and MYR value, goes for rm1.2k WHICH WAS HOW MUCH THE CHEAPEST GTX 970 ON DEBUT GOES FOR RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE This means cooler card and runs more silent. I can't wait for AMD to send over some samples. |

Well. If rx 480 is just around 1200 definitely go try this card. Rather with expensive 1070.
And ready for crossfire it. As amd claim two of this card outperform 1080. This post has been edited by hyperspeed: Jun 11 2016, 02:35 AM |

1. AMD claims.
2. It's only based on 1 title. So don't put your hopes too high on that one. If the price to performance is excellent then I'm definitely getting at least 2 units of it. And I end up keeping my R9 390 only for PSU testing purpose. |

try vote and get from here, if don't want cut throat by the local retail. The shipping fee is pretty cheap. Cheap and better value card should be okay without warranty. Lolz |
