Unclicking that puts the fans off while watching YouTube, so I think I reenabled passive mode. I might play some more XCOM2 and see how the temps are. Hilarious that taxes the GPU far more than Dark Souls 3. It really is poorly optimized. Sweet, better chip than mine I could about touch 2100 but it was doing uncomfortable things.

Ok sounds like people are saying keep the Gigabyte and the improved performance on that Gainward in the Hardware Unboxed review was just silicone lottery? Even though the memory and GPU are clocked higher out the box my assumption was the Top end of both cards is the same as most 1080 so it's all lottery. Could increase the G1 to the Gainward speeds if Alls well?

AVeryLargeRadish posted:Don't get your hopes up, I very much doubt the 480 will come anywhere close to a 980 Ti or overclock nearly as high as people want it to. If it could AMD would be touting it, why let Nvidia sell 1070s when they could be shouting from the rooftops about 980 Ti level performance for $200-$240? Why would the 480 need loads of power to OC like mad but not the massive cooling that generally comes with shoving tons of power through a chip? If it can OC so high then why not make cards with an AIO built in? They already did that with the Fury X and even if it added $50-$60 to the price it would be well worth it to be able to talk about how your new card can come close to the 980 Ti for only $300. i do think there's some logic in AMD keeping a good card under wraps until the 29th and then dropping the bomb at once. like, "here's our card, it's as expected, it's actually available at the price we advertised (instead of the $80 premium for 1070s), and we have plenty of stock. go nuts." people get hyped up on launch days and they'd probably get a lot of potential 1070 buyers to pull the trigger on a whim. whereas they might not get the same sales if you have weeks to think about it.

There's also a big difference between performing like a 980 Ti when overclocked and performing like a 980 Ti that is overclocked. e: Thanks phone. Overclocked is a word. xthetenth fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Jun 19, 2016 |

 Also I will say that this EVGA 1080 SC on the default clocks has locked up hard once (static noise filled screen) and had two "the video driver stopped responding and has been restarted" errors in the past 12 hours while just browsing the internet or sitting idle. Not sure if the card is crap or the drivers need work still. Power supply is a Corsair 550 RMx and idle power at the wall is 120W. Even maxed out, this computer only pulls ~405W at the wall.

So once my GPU gets here if I want to try overclocking it (or my CPU) should I just download and use Afterburner since I have a MSI motherboard? It seems to be very popular for OC/monitoring and looks really handy.PerrineClostermann posted:AMD has been known for bad drivers. Er, nVidia. I saw a bunch of posts about issues with the newest Nvidia drivers and people mentioning 382.22 or so from a few weeks ago seems much more stable. I know Nvidia had issues with a couple driver sets earlier this year as well, but it doesn't seem anywhere near as bad as that span about 5-6 years ago where they kept loving up constantly. I know when I built my last PC I got a 5850 instead of an Nvidia card in large part due to the constant driver issues.

Paul MaudDib posted:The really funny thing is that while that's a good price it wasn't actually abnormally low or anything. 290 prices bottomed out around $180 for ref cards and $200 for aftermarket cards (in the time period right before the 390 launched). I had no idea they were this low for a while. At $200, a custom-cooled 290 seems a way better buy than anything in nVidias stack at the time.

For how terrible the interface for EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner still are, does anyone use the latest version of Nvidia Inspector and just use its super simple but easy to use OC interface? You can even save each OC profile as a shortcut to your desktop and set ones to run on boot once you have one you like. The only reason I use Precision is for the custom fan Profiles and the G19 LCD screen stats for stuff like Clock speed, usage, temp, fps, etc. Trying to get it to work as easy as Inspector for overclocking has never appealed to me personally.

I wouldn't be surprised if there *was* some wheeling and dealing going on. I mean, my personal pet theory is that AMD is going to move to Samsung wholesale anyways, so to me, this is just more evidence to being integrated into Samsung's vertical ecosystem.

It's also possible AMD due to significant losses on the GPU front are working with Samsung on their mobile products in exchange for a discount on DRAM. I wouldn't be surprised to see a new phone soon with "AMD Graphics Technology" from Samsung married to their current ARM core as a marketing tool to offset the GPU in the latest Apple phones. That said, unless you're a shareholder in AMD, you will pretty much be told to see the door when asking about stuff like this.

So I bought a EVGA 980ti FTW at the firesale, returned it when a Asus 1070FE was in stock last friday and recieved it saturday. Been really happy with it since it's way less power hungry/hot than the 980ti, performance was about the same. But now my local store has a MSI 1070 Gaming X ready for pickup, gently caress my life am I really going to return this 1070FE?

More RX 480 leaks:  Apparently it's running at stock clocks. A stock GTX 980 averages between 5800-6000 for comparison. It's going to be interesting to see how far the AIB guys can push it with custom coolers and power delivery.

My reference 980Ti wouldn't boost past 1075MHz. It ran happily at about 1200MHz after just increasing the power limit and max temp. There's aftermarket ones that boost over 1400Mhz. (mine now happily runs at 1600mhz now that I have a water block on it) I can definitely see people getting mad clocks out of a new process.
