I too, found the GIF in consideration pleasing to my tastes in humor.I agree with the guy above.
Are you meaning the 480 or 490?I agree. And the price will put the 1070 to shame. Feel sorry for those paying for the 1070 now.
who knows if there is a 490, i would love to see an amd card smack dead in between a 1070 and 1080 for 400 squid

For a bit of sport i'm going to make a prediction.
RX 480 2304 shaders @ 1266Mhz (+26.5%)
2304 = to 90% of 2560 + 26.5% = 114%
RX 490 2560 Shaders @ 1450Mhz?
= RX 480 + 10% shaders + 15% Mhz = + 25% @ 0.7 scaling = + 17.5% performance.
So come in thread hit last page to look at any new news to see its Nvidia talk again straight away in first couple posts at top of the page. Thought id go back couple of pages to end up seeing same person talking about Nvidia again in top of the pages. Why dont we just name the thread Nvidia hijack thread.
Was hoping to see if anyone found any news of any other amd cards 490 maybe.
That's a big jump in clock speed between the 480 & 490. I think the 490 would be in the range of 1385-1400Mhz.
You feel sorry for people based on speculation on where the 480 will be, that is being used to further speculate on where the 480X/490 will be and then deciding what the price will be as well?I agree. And the price will put the 1070 to shame. Feel sorry for those paying for the 1070 now.
Yup it is getting frustrating, catching up on ocuk forums after having a nice break away from the PC and wanted to see the latest news on the GPUs only to see the same old Damage Patrol in full force again, it's worse than drunkenmaster's pro AMD PR editorials now
This 480 looks mighty good if performance and UK pricing is as expected. Hopefully we see a 490(x) soon as I would need something more beefy coming from a 290. It is a shame that crossfire is so **** now though as 2 of these would be superb bang per buck!

15% is not that big
The 480 clocks are pretty low, a bit like the Fury-Nano to keep the power really low.
IMO the 490 with get two 6 pin plugs to give it more juice and more Mhz.
I was meaning it's a high Mhz for an AMD card if you factor in potential overclocking (say 10%). A big jump from previous releases.
And here is the real thing for you enthusiasts who don't care about high efficiency.
That would be the RX 490.
Thats the way ATI and AMD of early GCN used to do it.
i think Raja is returning us to that.
It is, looking at the Fiji and Hawaii cards its always 5%
However if you look at the Tahiti-Pro to Tahiti-XT Ghz its 17%
Pitcairn was the same 860mhz 7850 to 1000Mhz 7870.
I just think the RX 480 is the cheaper high efficiency 100 watt kudos VR card, Like the Fury-Nano just to say here is a fast card thats also very efficient.

Re the 490 (if there even is one) - Why would you not announce that you are doing this though to steal sales and pre orders from the 1070? It makes no sense, for a card coming out 2 weeks after the competition. It would certainly make me think twice seen as at the moment I am going more towards getting a 1070.
If...just...may... if...
But in all probability, the 480 just got even better relative to the 1080.
