JismWell, hatts off for AMD bringing in cards to are equal to 1070 / fury performance, and starting from 200$ and above.

OctopussThat woman is butt-ugly.

FluffmeisterYou might be on to something, clearly the only obstacle to VR becoming a mainstream success is those pesky graphics card prices.

prtskgLisa Su said AMD will release Polaris cards in between 100 - 300$. How come this is full line up of polaris if we have seen cards between $ 100 - 200 only?

OctopussNot very representative of the company.[/QUOTE

medi01700$ for a GPU and 599$ for a VR
vs
199$ for a GPU and 599$ (soon 399$, thanks, Sony) for a VR

So, 1300$ vs 800$ (600$), hardly noticeable difference indeed.

ZoneDymoNot saying that, but more money is more money, people have a finite amount really.
and I think the biggest obstacle really is not price at all but rather what is required to use it, for most people a simple set of glasses was too much for 3d on the tv, this is glasses and then some.

TheinsanegamerNOK, but who has a gaming PC, can spend $800 on an HTC vive, but not mroe then $200 for a GPU? How does this individual gamer have the money to make a gaming PC in this case?

Im not saying its impossible, just that it is a very tiny niche that can afford a vive, but not a GPU to run it.

FluffmeisterThis is the longest launch EVAR.



Of course, but last time i checked those meanies nVidia sell cheaper cards too, and those VR headsets are expensive regardless as you say.

HiryouganWith the release of RX 480 nvidia as of now won't have anything in that performance segment.
Unless they'll sell 970 below 200$ and 980 at ~250-300$ which is impossible imo.

medi01She's a freaking CEO, not model, FFS, stop being sexist.

natr0nWith some fancy coolers on them it shouldn't even be a concern really.

FluffmeisterOf course, but last time i checked those meanies nVidia sell cheaper cards too...

Caring1Is it sexist to state the obvious, or merely politically correct not to say it?

Divide OverflowFull lineup? Vega won't be part of the RX series?

ViperXTR*Full Line of RX series
So RZ 490/Fury/Rage for Vega?

Small Single slot solution with 380X/970 speeds?

Jismwhen selling cards at 1070 performance for less then 200$.

Ferrum MasterNobody asks you to consider her that way... jeez...

OctopussThat woman is butt-ugly.

medi01As compared to, say, Huang, that sexy boy...
Sigh.

She's a freaking CEO, not model, FFS, stop being sexist.

Jack1nDamn, those cards look so 2006.

TotallySurprised no one has made a meme out of that pic

deuLets complaint about aesthetics like the real hardware entusiast we are!

FordGT90ConceptThere's a huge market for these cards. Just look at the options in the price/power segment now and prepare to be underwhelmed. Most of them are designs from 5-6 years ago. I, for one, am glad to see a recommitment to low power cards. Being stuck on 28nm had AMD and NVIDIA trying to out-power each other to get on top--the electric bill suffered for it.

BiggieShadyThat would be sexist if and only if he or she is less ready to point out an ugly male public figure in the same way. You don't know if that's the case here, but generally speaking it is.
