    480, not 480x and yeah but keep in mind it's not competing with the high end offerings of Nvidia nor is it meant to be. Expect performance between 390 and 980 level. Still amazing price to performance though. The higher end comes later this year.

      Cheaper than what my 280X was.. and its a newer card. That's tempting

        True. The price is pretty crazy for that kind of performance. I paid $339 for my 390 not even a year ago. Hopefully it overclocks well too.

          You plan on getting this or the higher end one?

            I want to wait until at least the 490 is released but like you said, it's tempting. I'm gonna wait until I see a few benchmarks and how well it OCs before I decide though.

              I'm gaming in 1080p anyhow so no need for me to think about anything higher right now

                I'm wondering if AMD will have a Polaris card sitting at that $300 price range (480x?) before we get tot he Vega chips.

                  I think they'll have one below and above the 480 before Vega. The one above will be either the 485 or 490 imo. They stressed in their conference that the Polaris chip would address the $100-300 price range.

                    As a bonus, you'll probably be able to cook your dinner on it as well.

                        AMD cards run notoriously hot. There's even videos of people cooking things like eggs on their cards.

                          Sounds like some fanboy nonsense that I was hoping we'd avoid on OS. There have been instances of cards running hot on both sides. AMD cards are no more "notorious" for it than Nvidia. Using more power? Sure, but that seems to be resolved with Polaris.

                              AMD really is known for running hot... lol.

                              Drivers are why I'll continue to stay away though, 5870 was my last AMD/ATI card.

                              Interested in their response to things like Ansel, but if they're targeting mainstream and conceding the high end market to NVIDIA they're no longer making products for me anyways.

                                plot twist, the egg doesnt cook. Probably should have watched the video before you posted it.
