Khorne posted:200 Mhz of a higher base clock is a lower percentage overclock. Newegg's Ebay store has EVGA 980 Ti BNIB for only $450. http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-980-Ti-DirectX-12-06G-P4-4997-KR-6GB-384-Bit-GDDR5-PCI-Express-/291724081067?hash=item43ec1c37ab You can get used 980 Ti from [H]ardForum for around $380-$400. The only conceivable upgrade for me is a 1080 Ti or a Titan, being a 980 Ti owner. The 1080 is just not price per performance valuated for any current 980 Ti owner.

PBCrunch posted:There is a weird set of circumstances causing people to compare the RX480 to the GTX1070. It's pretty simple. Yeah, the 480 is going to come in below a 1070. But people want to know just how much lower. Because if it's not a lot lower, then they might go with what's easier on the wallet and/or more available.

Anime Schoolgirl posted:Visiontek listings To be fair, I had to go through their RMA for the 4870X2/5870 era a few times (Their Refurb replacement cards ended up all having the same issue almost all 4870's did. Deat from Heatstroke) but they handled it well and were pretty good about getting me replacements quickly, then "Upgrading" me to a 5870 that still kicks it today. In other news, drat at least I feel better knowing my 980Ti really does have the grunt to hold me off perfectly fine till the 1080Ti at least. Mine seems to OC even farther than the reviewers all seem to get (Do they not report on the actual clocks the card is holding vs what the app used to OC says the turbo will be? I have been confused on that since Fermi). EdEddnEddy fucked around with this message at 01:47 on Jun 22, 2016 |

The only reason to buy these is if you were planning to rip the cooler off and slap a waterblock on in the first place.

There are some issues with this lol. The 980ti was the best card I've ever owned, I cannot speak more highly of that card. However it will not be better than a 1080 apples to apples ... Simply because its not better than a 1070 OC to OC. Its practically the same in performance and trades blows Now ill agree with the overall message that snagging a used 980ti for a good price is a very valid idea, even a great idea depending on your situation. This is doubly true if you use a normal 60hz 1080p monitor, you literally wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a 980ti and a 1080. The sole caveat is how worried you will be with DX12 in the future. Frankly, I wasn't very concerned but time could change that. But showing pics of ebay listings at $300 and heavily implying that it's just as good as a 1080 is retarded. Sorry. And did anybody see the ending ? Lol.

THE DOG HOUSE posted:I believe the highest stable I got (in Firestrike Ultra, specifically) was "just" 2064 (? 2060 something), I dialed back to 2038 for a buffer. The highest stable memory OC I'm at is 9600 mhz, although I should note it actually never crashed and ran at 10,000 which was the highest possible memory overclock in Afterburner for this card lol, something I've never been able to do. However there was an occasional memory related visual error down to around 9700 mhz so I left it at 9600 mhz. Thanks for this, it gives me something to compare with when tweaking my settings. Though I can't seem to up my core voltage in Afterbruner, it's greyed out and doesn't let me use the slider. Trying it out at +40 core and +500 memory to start with and go from there. e: Is there any reason to not just leave a fan setting on auto? Like do some people always want their fans running at a certain level to ensure airflow or what? e2: This is what I've seen after running Doom and FFXIV for a little while:  68C max temp on the GPU over maybe 2-3 hours of the games running at max settings in 1440. Still not sure why Core Voltage can't be tweaked but since games seem to be running well so far so it shouldn't matter I suppose? CPU temps were 50/53/46/43 max as well (CPU is not overclocked atm).

So apparently leaks on MSRP launch prices for the reference 400 series cards will be RX 460, 2GB: 99$ RX 460, 4GB: 119$ RX 470, 4GB: 149$ RX 470, 8GB: 179$ RX 480, 4GB, 199$ RX 480, 8GB, 229$ RX470 4GB looks to be in a dominating position if it's hovering just under 970 performance, so much so that it kind of makes only the extreme ends of the price range worth considering.

No, especially since I don't think the RX 470 has enough horsepower to ever take advantage of it. That' and it's only 20$ less than the better performing RX 480 4GB so :|

I likewise got one of the aforementioned MSI Gaming X 1080s, and I am historically not really an early-adopter type, but I figure it'll last me a while. Downside is, I'm pretty lazy as far as recouping money by selling my old cards. I'll have a MSI 970 ME that's being replaced. Hell, I still have my old HIS 7950 that that replaced in a box somewhere. Part of it is issues I've had with Paypal in the past making me fed up with trying to sort it out with them. Maybe Amazon will let me sell them.

To people worrying about upgrading their 2500K, I just tested my i7-920 @3.5ghz playing the Witcher 3 @1440p: From ~30fps on a 270x with it's balls overclocked off, to ~90 fps with a 1070 out of the box. My 6 year old cpu lives another couple of years.

Finally broke down and played it recently, and I was getting 30-40 fps at 1200p (with occasional drops during cutscenes) on my stock 3570k/HD 6950, a GPU that is technically unsupported. Genuinely surprised and pleased by that. Definitely waiting for a new card before tackling the DLC, though.

Those prices look daft, as in 'there's almost no reason at all to get anything under a 480' daft. Although I suppose this is before the vendors all shove their own logarithmic scales on, to ensure there's a 50+ difference between the '80 and the '70. Honestly don't know whether or not to pull the trigger on a 1070 here (at 540 euros, heh) or wait for a 480 and just get another 480 if that gets sluggish. Couldn't give a bollocks about 'brand loyalty', just no idea what to do. That said, this 1080/1070 launch is leaving a very bad taste in my mouth. I shudder to think what will happen when Nvidia truly has no competition at all, if this is a preview. E: Of course, they have a perfect right to re-coup their millions of R&D investment if people keep buying 'em. Capitalism, ho!

SLI mid-range GPU's is never a good idea, you'll end up with enough games where scaling is either mediocre or non-existent and you'll be lamenting the 200+ dollar brick in your PC. I'm still holding out for a GTX 1070, probably won't be able to order one at a price I'm interested in until after the RX 480 benches come out, so at the very least I'll see if the 480 is the actual Miracle Bullshit Magic some are really hoping it is with 50% overclocks on air.

Shouldn't be too long until we get the full picture, so hopefully you don't NEED a card between now and then.
