Radeon released RX 480. (Card is Released)

what is the equivalence of rx480 (280x 380 390 7970)  ? Cooler blower is so loud.

The Nano scale step being so big, it would be close to r9 390x but using much less power.

Thank you for the clarification!

........... Where are you guys pulling these numbers from? Your asses? No one knows what speed these cards will reach.

before saying bullshit, you need to search more around here, there is an insider that did run the card and told us the value

not to mention the 1080 is already out....and 1070 is just 25% slower

Oh, I'm "say bullshit" am I? You've got a funny way of seeing things. An insider, eh? Yeah, OK. I'll wait to see real numbers from real people instead of throwing bullshit numbers around.

I've seen the other post of the 27mh on 1070.

There is zero evidence to backup his claim.

Until I see pictures or posts from a trusted user then I will remain suspicious.

The best guess right now is that the RX480 is not a standout card.

The reason I believe this is because you would think that all the GPU vendors would be flushing their inventory.

Looking at newegg, the only cards that have gotten cheap or there aren't many of them are the 270, 360, 370 series.

Contrast that with the 380 and 390 cards. The 380 card pricing has held pretty steady since Feb/Mar till now.

Consistent with observations made in the press, AMD will be addressing the portable/laptop market with their 14nm FF technology offering better graphics performance at lower power draws.

A guess is that the RX480 will be more along the lines of an improved 270,370 with an even lower TDP.

What do you guys think about 480?
Its only costs 200$ . And 2 480s beats 1080 .
1080 costs 600$ so instead of spending 600$ buy 2 480s for 400$.

im waiting someone review it, if the Rx 480 can reach 40mhs for etherum i will buy 50 vga

his claim are backuped by genoil was tried the 1080 and it was done 24MH

and i don't see any reason why he should lie, for what? we would know the real value anyway before buying...

RX 480 is aimed at the "mainstream" segment.

 Specs so far indicate it should fall somewhere inbetween the R9 380 and R9 380x, while eating less power.

 If I had to guess based on ALL of the information that has shown up so far, I'd guess 24-30MH/s at 100-120 watts.


 I also suspect availability is going to be a BIG issue for a while, though since it's Global Foundry not TSMC they shouldn't be affected by the earthquake a few months back that took the TSMC production offline for some weeks....


 The price however, even if the card *IS* in very short supply, should put some serious pressure on the price of EXISTING card models - which is indirectly a bonus for us miners.

I'd say 30mh is really all we're going to get on the 480, but 2 of those for $400 getting 60mh @ 300W is still a pretty good deal. I'm considering picking 2 up, but want something to hold me over for the next month. I'm going to see if my microcenter has any 380's and if they'd be willing to take them back for the 480 when it launches.

I read few articles about 480, The performace is pretty cool.

It will be less than 30 MH/s. The memory bus is just 256bit, it is lower than the 512 used by the 390.

How much impact on performance can the new memory controller have with the same bus? With optimization it can be faster?

 Memory is also a lot faster - 8 GB/s vs 5GB/s or some such bandwidth figure.
 The increased speed should make up a lot for the narrower bus, and archetecture upgrades *might* make up the rest - or might make it worse - THAT is the real wild card we can't judge without a card in hand.

 All indications are that it shoud solidly beat the 280/380 and probably the 280x but not sure vs. the 290 or 390.

i would guess a right estimate around 25MH at a lower wattage than their tdp, like it was for eveyr other gpu

you cna expect to maintain the same hash at 33% lower consumption, this only with etheruem because of the low memory usage

If that is the case, it is not worth selling my R9 390 and upgrade to the newer 480 cards. I will wait for the 490.

390 can do 25MH at 120w or lower? no way... tdp for 480 is 150w the same as 1070, but the 1070 can be limtied to consume 100w only, while maintaining same hash

it will be the same with the 480, since they both have 16/14nm manufacturing process

I will probably be ditching my 390s for 480s if they do 25mh simply because of the power/heat difference. I have to way underclock/undervolt my 390s to get their temps in acceptable range for the environment i run them in. On my Quad Crossfire box I have them each clocked at different speeds to maintain temps of 72C or less. Each hashing anywhere from 22 to 25MH

...It's my hope that the 480s will easily do 25mh and maintain the temps I want at less power.

I have 6x r9 390 on a Asrock H81 mother boards. They are running at 0.977v, 97x/1000 MHZ. The system total is 165 MH/s. Power on the wall 1030 W. But I use 93% platinum power supply.

If you assume the system use 100W, each card uses 155W for 27.5 MH/s. So it is possible to use 25MH/s at 120W if you undervolt further. But I did not try.

still worse than 26.7MH at 100w, there is no way that a 28nm card can match the same consumption of a 16/14nm card, absolutely impossible, no matter how good is your undervolt

besides that 1070 can be undervolted also, and it's probably possible to do 26.7MH with 80-90w
