Faster than RX 480. Tue will be interesting day to read reviews, if it will be very good at OC at 2GHz+ on air in games then GTX 1060 would be easy outsold RX 480 and Nvidia got a winner.

People have been showing that 1350-1400mhz RX480 and 1.9-2ghz 1060 get around the same scores.

Probably thousands, but they'll put the price up an hour after launch due to "supply issues".

AMD Radeon RX480 born 29/06/2016 - Died 19/07/2016.

Asus Models

Missed this posted a few days ago, sorry if was posted here but didn't see.

After seeing what the asus 1080 AIB supply was like..

I guess the "The Power Of 10" means they only going have 10 cards available ...

In time for launch a few hundred and by end of next week we should have had 2000-3000 arrive, so plenty.

Be good to finally bed the 480 vs 1060 benchmark battle.

We still looking at a £250-£300 launch price from OcUK?

Iirc that's pretty much where you expected them to be priced

Yes.

melmac · 16 Jul 2016 at 22:03

So these will be available to buy on Tuesday?

When are the reviews coming out? Monday?

jimferno · 16 Jul 2016 at 22:04

Looking forward to seeing how this stacks up against the RX 480. My 7950 is looking a little long in the tooth.

should be closer to £250 if it's closer to £300 it's just too close to the 980 Ti that'll be 15% more expensive but offer much better performance, so a 1060 that has a purpose to offer good bang for the buck would be pointless, all the price cuts from last Gen could hurt this card whilst stock lasts. Fury at £299, 980 Ti at £349.99 980 £275 meh... we should be getting a performance uplift at a reduced cost, that's the point in a new release at least with an x60 product, I still say one of the best launches we had was with Kepler, were the 660 Ti and above beat out the last flagship 580, and prices were sensible, and if I remember correctly they were bundled with Borderlands 2 and Assassins creed 3

Tbh, I'm not buying a xx60 card for more than £200, so I'm out.

you'd be suprised even if it is only around 10% faster people would be willing to spend more than 10% extra simply because it's Nvidia, brand loyalty, and like I said it's Nvidia, they know how to sell pretty well.

typically 9 out of 10 people would buy a Nvidia card it it was the exact SAME in terms of price and performance compared to an AMD card. just the way it is unfortunately, this enables Nvidia to add a little extra on and people will still pay.
