Much later? He's saying the Sapphire 480 wont be in til mid August.

And we know for a fact that 3rd party 1060's will be available *tomorrow*.

Powercolor Devil 480 is shipping this weekend and will be delivered mid-week next week apparently.

So enlighten me, if AIB 1060s are 'launching' tomorrow, what are we talking here, worldwide launch or soft launch in 'Murica only? Where are these 3rd party 1060's 'ready to go'? There isn't even a product page up on OCUK.

We had the 480 Nitro page up weeks ago.

The 1060 NDA isnt up til 2pm on the 19th. OCUK can't put the page up until then. Gibbo has already said that they have 3rd party 1060's ready to sell tomorrow.

Pretty sure Gibbo has said he will have custom 1060's available for sale tomorrow.

Why are you asking me anything? I'm simply responding based on what your source actually says vs what we actually know.

I apologize if it's not what you what you wanted. But life is like that. Dont blame me.

Gibbo mentioned in another thread that some 480 AIB manufactuerers are going to commence manufacturing later this week.

1070 & 1080 product pages didn't go live until the day of release. Some enterprising people did find some hidden product pages though

Yep, he's said customs are in stock.

qwerty567111 · 19 Jul 2016 at 00:46

Are these early 1060s going to be fully custom ie pcb and cooler, or just reference pcb with custom cooler on them

Custom cards go into product this weekend at numerous board partners.

How does that look re. the 22nd July availability date for the Nitro+? I've had mine on pre-order since the 2nd and I'm eagerly anticipating it like a Schoolboy on the coach to a field-trip!

It's amazing. So many people here are better informed than Gibbo.

How about you wait for the 22nd before declaring "overhyped underdelivered". We currently have little firm information apart from a rumour, which sounds like it came from Sapphire Ed being taken out of context.

Maybe they will be here, maybe they won't. Maybe they'll be garbage, maybe they won't.

fastboy · 19 Jul 2016 at 10:38

yes its amazing..

retrofly · 19 Jul 2016 at 10:39

And here I am just waiting for confirmed clock speeds

He sat on his stream and said "they haven't gone into production, we've been tweaking everything."

He said it in the first five minutes of his stream.

Gibbo has said about 3 pages ago that Friday is looking "unlikely."

August, in other words.

RavenXXX2 · 19 Jul 2016 at 10:42

They have not even confirmed specs and supposedly they land on the 22nd, it aint happening.

Bantu · 19 Jul 2016 at 10:46

Gibbo obviously wanted to shift more of that old AMD inventory so forced them to delay. Obviously.

We have listed Boost locks and memory clocks, just not base clocks for some reason
