  • Thread starter Thread starter Deleted member 50521
  • Start date Start date
No prices yet in my country.
 
It's the 29th already, what time do the reviews come out?
 
I think NDA lifts today, 9AM ET -> 13:00UTC
 
So.
490 surfaced.
("coming this year" :D :D :D)

New card for wait for its benchmarks after 480 NDA is finally lifted... :D

Nice find....

Awesome. That makes sense. Retailers here say they are delivering the cards starting at 8pm (13:00 UTC). I'm honestly quite surprised that they are following the rules as a lot of the shops are "mom and pop" type stores
 
Sry to everyone I can't post a screenshot from my distributors website with a price I am basically not allowed to doubt for customer prices and so on, but it's in my order queue and I wanted a Sapphire branded one not another brand since I always trusted Sapphire when it came to Radeon cards I tried Asus and MSI but not that good cards even they might have oc'ed better bcs of custom pcb's but this here is stock AMD ref cards so there shouldn't be much difference can't wait for being able to test it out :laugh:
 
Only one 480 listed where I live, at 2703 SEK, or $316.

Not much hype in stores afaik.

EDIT: NDA lifts when I get out of therapy, excellent. :D

SWITCHED SIDES> ASUS 4850 (was meh) > Sapphire 4850 (Pretty nice) > Sapphire 5870 Vapor-X (Awesome)> Sapphire TRI-X 290x (Awesome.)

All AMD cards still working, 5870 in my HTPC =].

Telephone conversation with overclockers UK

OCUK: OCUK how can I help?
Me: You guys should have RX 480's in stock, are they only going up after NDA lifts
OCUK: Yea, that right
Me: So that'll be at 1pm right?
OCUK: sorry can't tell you that.

too bad that DP to DVI adapter properly only would support 1080p@60hz max not higher resolution :(
Time for that monitor upgrade, right?

I already run 2560x1440p@100~120hz but that's DVI-D only so I will just buy an active adapter don't want to change my monitor too:(

Card has DVI-D pinout, they just couldn't fit the port well, because of the cooler type. (it would block the airflow)

AIBs should have it.

Also, adapters should work just fine, signals etc are mostly common between the two.
