[Rumor] RX480 AIB Card Leaked and Tested!

And, LAST, BUT NOT LEAST: this is a thread about RX 480. You were responding to:
Nobody expected next 600$ card to be 25% faster than previous gen card of the same price tier, wah

If you insist on using price as an argument, then your argument is invalid. Pricing is a reflection of what the market will pay. That is why AMD cards used to be so much cheaper than Nvidia. Comparing price tiers means Nano was the same (or better) than Fury X. Pricing was used to differentiate the product (Nano was niche). Likewise, Titan X is perfectly valid as a comparison as it was priced according to market demand (higher memory full core card).

You cannot use pricing as an indicator for what product is replacing what product. Pricing is a very transient concept. You can actually only use your logic because Nvidia decided to price it so much higher this time around because AMD have nothing to fight it with at the high end.

And, LAST, BUT NOT LEAST: this is a thread about RX 480.

So stop talking about Vega.

Move to your desktop (can an iphone do that?) and use TPU image hosting.

Or, Whats App it to an android contact and they can do it.

my pc now is a mess so........tomorrow hopefully i can finish my rig . I hate amd for this small void stamp so...i cannot use waterblock on these, tomorrow i will get about 4 to 8 mores .

Card shouldn't need water blocks but that void warranty is a standard. Very few brands (EVGA excepted) allow tampering. By the way, what is the enormous water block I can see in the 2nd last picture? Or is it a custom light? It looks custom whatever it is.
 
it's psu cover i make it into a water tank panel, i guess we can only post picture not the number due to the nda right ?
the temperature here is quite hot i just love to wc the things...
 
me it's +60% for a additional $50-100.
You'll complain that the gains are not impressive, I'll complain that the price is not impressive.
Yet when 1080 Ti will be released, it'll be above 1080 in both price and performance, won't it?
ood job picking up bizzarred priced item, it sure validates your point.

Theoretically, you arent supposed to post anything at all unless AMD specifically says you are alowed to.

Are you an owner or employee?
 
i'm a normal user but i do have friends work in here and china so i can get my hands on new stuff just sometimes
i'm an owner but of a clothes store
 
NDA doesn't really apply to random people who acquire things.

your friends may be in trouble as in your picture appear the S/N of the card;i assume HIS can trace where it should be...

As you have a card could you measure the distance between the 4 main mounting holes please?

I'm trying to figure out if it's 53x53 or 54x54mm.
 
it's 54mm i have them waterblocked by now ( only gpu ) i don't know if seperated vram aluminum or copper heatsink is enough to push it to +200mhz on the ram.

Thank you, I'm almost certain I'm going to get one so I can now go ahead and order the 54mm bracket for my gpu block.

Actually, neither does Nvidia have the product to fight at the high end as they are merely phantoms occasionally sighted.
Perhaps when AMD's Vega comes out Nvidia will have produced some more stock.
 
sounds like nvidia PR nonsense to me...

no one can get their hands on one, so it must be selling like hotcakes...

lol

If you bother to follow the links, you can get to a mention of the Amazon sales rankings from last week: "The GTX 1080 and the GTX 1070 had 8 of the top 20 spots in Amazon's best selling list last week, including 1, 2 5, and 9. This week is full of the much lower cost Maxwell deals that are out there now. NVidia is having terrific sales lately."

That came from comments on Fudzilla, which reported AIB reports to them, NOT Nvidia.

You realise how ironic your doubting is? You can't buy them because they've sold out? That's the point of the article. People think they're not in supply but they are selling out as soon as the inventory arrives. It's okay to not believe one rumour but believe others though, that's what bias is for.
 
i think you missed my point.

but whatever blows your skirt up...

Resellers are still getting $800+ on amazon, if stock was widely available, they wouldn't be able to. I haven't even looked at fleabay, im sure its worse.

prices are starting to drop, but thye arent there yet.

over $1000 for the EVGA FTW...

lol

And quoting Amazon prices is lame. However, I didn't write the article, only referenced it from the same site that has been releasing a tonne of RX480 rumours.

So like I say, pick your stories, believe what suits your bias.
 
me like how this thread evolve.... thought my wife is a gossip queen but seems was wrong; i don't know how many users who posted in this thread are females but sure males are majority...need to change my opinion about wifeeee :laugh:

View attachment 75570

Welcome to the real world, men like gossip as much as females if not more :P
ITs just that the usual subjects dont interest men (or society tells men they should not be interested in that).....or so we like to think, lets be honest The Walking Dead is one big ass soap opera.

I came from that same site, to this site: because I heard this was a good place to flash my bias.
