Hmmm, AMD Vega boasts significant performance increase

http://wccftech.com/vega-teaser-slides-leak-nda/

That's a bold claim. Will it live up to the hype?

Guys, I just recently purchase LG 29UM67-P. This is Ultrawide monitor with resolution 2560 x 1080 .

Planning to upgrade my current GC.. Which one the best value Rx 470 or R9 380 ?

Yeah.. thats good advice.

From several news I read,  Rx 570 will be much more power efficiency compare to Rx 470. TDP will be lower with higher performance compare to Rx 470.

hi guys, just to inquire about something. im torn between rx 480 8gb vs rx 580 4gb as both prices are quite similar. which one is a better buy?

Sapphire nitro+ 480 8gb to be exact. dont think im topping up for the 8gb on rx 580. so for now just rx 480 8gb vs rx 580 4gb (both from sapphire nitro+)

im using msi rx480 gaming x 8gb. bought it bcoz all stock finish for the 4gb version. played saveral games the division,witcher 3,bf1, watchdog,gtav in 1080p. vram usage max 3.5gb~4gb. almost never hit more than 4.

but i checked the rx 480 price
omg
almost 13xx > <
i think i just can aim rm 3xx gc lol XD

Slight performance doesn't really matter much to me but power consumption better hardware parts maybe? On the rx 580 are what I'm looking for. Read some where that it reduce consumption. Rx 480 about 225 and rx 580 about 150 ( same as gtx 1060)

Meh, Polaris doesn't need GPU clockspeed boost. It could use more memory bandwidth like using GDDR5X. RX 470 is close to RX 480 performance when the former using the same memory speed as the latter.

RX580 just 5% performance incease than rx480... tdp higher and performance/watt increase, i thought can be better of tdp due to better vrm or power design? @@

Price is cheaper usd10 than previous lolz... Where's vega= =

mind explaining why it sucks?

im looking for an upgrade for my gtx770, and the rx580 price n specs look good, and one more thing because i just bought a monitor with amd freesync

RX580 only increasement 5% performance from rx480 by power consumption increase 20%.
In US, RX580 cheaper than RX480, in malaysia RX480 dropped RM50, but RX580 expensive than RX480 bout RM200.
Roughly RM150 to get an RX580 nitro+ (Best clock speed), better top up some to Fury X which better performance or go more to used/new GTX1070.

For a 2 years old tech which rebrand, its not worth at all ....
RX580 is about 60fps to current 1080p maximum setting, after 1 or 2 years? Can it still handle?

I will go to RX570 4gb RM960 which possible chance overclock better clock speed than rx480, which only 5% performance lower, if only willing targeting on current 1080p gaming.

In conculsion, RX580 not a real sweet point.

Aftermarket 480 is oc one, need hit 1440mhz very hard.
580 is oced 480, can hit nearly 1500mhz easily.
For this line rx480/rebranded rx580, increase bit of performance by consume much more power, in result, performance/watt drops.

This is from tweaktown (3D marks and Metro Light). Yours from tomshardware (gaming and tortune).
Tourtune test in tom's hardware result more power consumption than rx 480 nitro.

If tweaktown is true, 27w~37w increase just for a gpu is not a performace/watt choice. Anyway, the performace/watt oledi lose to gtx1060 long time ago @@

Who's right? I dunno 

If there's no increase of  power consumption, its great, actually, even there is increase of 30w average, wont hurt u tnb bill so much per year @@
If really willing for save tnb bill, just go to gtx 1060 @@
But still i wont happy, RM200 from nitro 480 to nitro 580, price increase 20% to get u 5% overall performance increase, 10% for game optimization.

For our mid-range testing, we're shifting over to testing the cards on our AMD Ryzen 5 1600X system. It represents more real-world results compared to benchmarking them on the Core i7-7700K, especially when the Ryzen 5 1600X is priced at $100 cheaper than the 7700K, and offers 6C/12T of performance over the 4C/8T chip from Intel.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X (6C/12T)
Cooler: AMD Wraith Cooler
MB: ASRock AB350 Gaming K4
RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) GEiL EVO X 3200MHz DDR4
SSD: 1TB OCZ RD400 NVMe M.2
PSU: be quiet! Dark Power 1200W
Chassis: In Win X-Frame

With the overclocked Polaris 20 core hitting 1505MHz in my testing, the SAPPHIRE Radeon RX 580 Nitro+ sitting on the Core i7-7700K system was using an average of 270W, while peaking at 290W.

AMD card power consumption varies depend on BIOS and chip binning

Agreed. But i need some explain, gaming in tom's is according to what game?
Because there is quiet weird that gaming maintain almost nothisng sifferent power consumption but the tortune which is benchmark give a noticeable different.
As common, i know that a benchamrk may push a gpu as hard as possible, is it possible that the power consumption under gaming in tomb's for game which not really gpu intensive?

Actually, is it worth to have a RX580? Its depends on different ppl different need, different choice.
I feel sucks, just because of improvement performace lightly from rebrand, consume more power if utilize?, the most i care is pricey more 20%

Just for my 2 cent of logical, i may getting a used/new GTX 1070 or RM1650 fury-x over a RM1550 nitro+ RX 580.
If i'm in condition of tight budget, why not i just choose better value of nitro pulse RX570 4gb which possible oc higher clock than rx480 by oc.

AMD card power consumption varies depend on BIOS and chip binning<- this doesnt apply to nvidia as well?

RX 580 has no reference model, however I've used RX 480 reference model.

Power draw really is estimated to be around 20% increase.

I think you're missing the point, RX 480 was designed to be under 150W whether reference or custom, it's just that some custom models draw a little more.

RX 580 on the other hand was designed to be at 180W right from the start, whether reference or custom. However for RX 580 there is no reference design. So meaning actual one (custom) will be drawing 180W onwards. Sapphire model comes with 2x PCI-E power connector.

I read a comment before, the comment is against something bout  a thread starter which stated that ati tflops > nvidia, its should better than nvidia => Game developer who didn't optimization is wrong.

The one who comment stated himself is one of big company game developer who if field about 20 years, admit ati is more future proof and futher tech than nvidia, but's the tflops better doesnt result better performance, due to many kind of problem, include coding which how to optimization performance of ati arch should be. Till today, they still in hard for optimization to get fully ati potential, but unfortunately, they still cannot handle well, even vulkan tech is still try getting optimization for gaming.

From analysis of several comment or review, i more to believe AMD got better arch and tech etc, hopefully their hardwork is granted, and make a real king which can compete Nvidia @@

Its kinda a sad that a gundam which more powerful but sucks OS installed XD

Full load, 30w x24 x7 x52 = 262kW = 262 unit  = RM 78/12 = RM 6.50 per month = ayam burger double tambah cheese
Actually is nothing big dfferent of burden for full load 365 days XD

Just because there is better efficiency of nvidia, that's why will feel dissapointed.
But as video befoe, nvidia done a really right decision of archive efficiency.@@
