Will it be the same for RDNA 2 cards? I hope there won't be region restriction for those.

Cheapest RX 470 might be a long-term good deal in a few weeks, when price presumably drops a bit. Based on some leaked benchmarks the RX 460 does not seem to be a winner card, of course those numbers can be completely BS.

I'm using a Fury Pro in a PCI-E 2.0 x16 slot without any problems or performance drop.

The Fury series is actually pretty decent at 4k. Even with monster games like The Witcher 3. When other cards take a big hit in FPS, the Fury's just slow down a bit and beat Titan X and 980 Ti in many tests. So even if you switch to 4k with no immediate VGA upgrade, you would be quite okay.

Very good price, indeed.

+1 for Fury Pro

Why would Nvidia optimize for old hardware? They business strategy is to sell a new shiny card to you in every generation for a little more. :) It looks like the 290x produces some great numbers these days, while the Nvidia cards are clearly left in the dust. Thanks for the topic to confirm this.

Not gonna happen. They need bad boy AMD to sustain high prices and avoid turning into a monopoly. So on the contrary: Intel is slowly moving ahead to eliminate discrete GPUs. That means survival for both Intel and AMD, not so for Nvidia.

Buying a 980 Ti doesn't make sense anymore. It's yesterday's tech and ages badly. Go for an 1070 or the Fury. The latter will be still among us, when Maxwell feels like distant history.

1080 Ti should have the raw power to overcome any DX12 issues for a long time.

What is the purpose of this card? To make 1080 owners feel bad they don't own the fastest card anymore?

The blue line is the reference pricing, which does not exist in the real world, at least not at the tested shop. You can find the real price of the 1060 higher. :)

https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_1060/28.html The RX480 has the best performance-per-dollar ratio today. AMD is not in a position to give away a similarly performing card for half the price Nvidia set. And quite frankly, if they did, people would still buy Nvidia, because...

Too bad, vBulletin does not have sortable tables AFAIK, that would solve the problem. Overall, CPU and GPU scores in different columns and you could just sort them the way you want. Or maybe storing the data in a Google Docs Sheet and putting it here in an iframe.

Well it looks like the typhoons only hit AMD's factories. I suspect it was financed by Nvidia thru HAARP.

+ 10% faster in DX11 + significantly lower power consumption - 10% more expensive - significantly worse DX12/Vulcan performance - less VRAM - no SLI 1060 is good, if you spared more money, than the cost of an RX480, but cannot afford an 1070, you live in a region with high electricity cost...

Glad I only have the demo and did not pay for biased results.

With AMD optimized settings there is no noticeable hit, but it still looks very-very good!

You mean 1060? The 960 is nowhere near the 480 and also it is previous gen.
