[Rumor] RX480 AIB Card Leaked and Tested!

more leaks/rumours say that the RX 480 can clock up to ~1.5Ghz, almost Fury X performance (wccftech) achieved with voltage control and new OC tool

WCCFTech also rumoured Pascal to reach 2.5Ghz (or was it videocardz - the two are symbiotic anyway). Thing is, Pascal is pretty much stuck at 2.1Ghz. Only an LN2 cooled board modded card hits up to 2.5Ghz. So the rumours should kept at that expectation - rumour.

Also - the node shrink means containing voltage is harder as the spaces between traces get smaller and smaller. I'm not so sure we have much of an overclocking future with the newer manufacturing processes.

Theres no way Amd can release a card with that HIGH a performance level for that cheap. It doesn't make sense business wise. If Amd has a ton of Available cards or past architecture cards....yes. Can't think of one new launch that ever that did. Or is this like a Black Friday sale with incredibly reduced prices and extremely low to no stock sale just designed to get you in the store and spoil the competition? If its true.... I'll buy two, but the pessimist in me is waiting for the catch.......
I FULLY BELIEVE IT WILL TAKE TWO CARDS IN CROSSFIRE TO REACH THIS PERFORMANCE LEVEL. .....wait I think he said that in that Linus Tech Tips exclusive.....

1070 should be around 40% faster than 480, no amount of OC can close that gap and the price will reflect that.

the54thvoid · Jun 17, 2016

Hexus has a wee bit of news.

Scroll down though to get US price equivalent for 8Gb with minor factory OC = $300. That'd end up as £300. Not as cheap as thought? EOL GTX 980's are £300 (though I guess the RX 480 is better choice).

Back in the days OC meant 50% more power.
Do anyone still remember Radeon 9500@9700, Geforce 6800LE@6800GT or E2140 1,6GHz@3,2GHz?

hmm, so the custom ones ends up being more than 300 USD then?

8gb version + tax + extra shop price...

240(8gb Version)+42(TAX18%)+18(Shop Addition)=300

Soo... flops.

Floating Point Operations Per Second that is.
One GPU shader can do 2 floating point operations per clock: add and multiply.
RX 480 has 2306 shaders running at 1266 (or 1288) Mhz.

So: 2306 * 2 * 1266 = 5.83 teraflops

OCed to 1400 (11% overclock): 6.46 TF
OCed to 1500 (18% overclock): 6.92 TF

(Fury X has 8.6TF, Titan X 6.6TF, apparently, just crunching more numbers isn't enough to be faster)

Still interesting, how close to Fury X can OCed 480 get.

Don't recall that.
I think WCC were spot on starting with Fury rumors all the way through 1070/1080.

It sure does, when the goal is to re-gain huge swaths of the market and when what most customers know about your company is mostly.

It was probably Videocardz. They had a short on GALAX GTX1080 HOF card with link to the video interview from Comutex:
http://videocardz.com/60923/galax-overclocks-gtx-1080-to-2-2-ghz-on-air-2-5-ghz-with-ln2

Also there's already a higher OC record for EVGA ACX3.0 Classified reaching past 2.8GHz on LN2.

also import tax.

it wont be $100 more for that in the US.

they have been releasing 2 to 3 drivers every month.

and its been reported there is zero thermal throttling.

ah, i see you have a MSI GAMING GTX 980. now your post makes sense.

Funny, because I just had an R9 380 for the past 3 months and saw "hotfixes" every month , but no official driver update.

Also, I said core clock throttling, not thermal. And it definitely does, check MSI afterburner during benchmarks

Ah, I see you know nothing about me, now your post makes sense.

Basically the same clocks as the R9 380, but performing like a GTX1080: http://www.3dmark.com/is/3839928?_ga=1.172079783.507117041.1462523653

I'm honestly not an Nvidia fan boy. I own three FX CPU's right now and still run one as my main setup.

I tried their GPU's again, did not have a good experience and switched. Maybe I'll go back again one day.

I wonder why everyone thinks these cards will be sold at their msrp of $199 and $249. The 380 with an msrp of $199 was being sold for 275-280 EURO at the time which is around $310. I've already seen a webshop that listed an RX480 8GB for 241£ which is 305 EUR or $345. So if i had to chose between say an EVGA 1080 that retails for $649 or xfire RX480's for $600-700, it would be an easy choice for me. As i curently have an SLI setup, i will be going back to single card setup, a lot less issues. I will snag myself a 1070 at $400 when i'm going back to the usa in September.

The Mac · Jun 17, 2016

you guys have vat, and import costs. That tends to inflate the price.

Plus im sure there will be early price gouging.

xkm1948 · Jun 17, 2016

4GB version $199, 8GB version $229~$249

Custom overclock version > 249

Base clock 1288MHz.

And there are metric tons of Maxwell cards in the stores, they have to get rid of them somehow and make at least some profit. At one retailer here four of the eight 970 models is marked with +100 in stock. They have hundreds of every Maxwell card. That can't feel good right now. :laugh:

Zotac GTX970 is already down to $239 @ newegg to compete with an upcoming RX480. I'm already tempted to sell my liver and buy a dozen :laugh:
