A discount on the FURY X's would be nice or nicer on the Zotac 980TI AMP Extreme Edition (sold one for $460) but anyways, those cards will blow past gtx1070 reference and probably catch up to GTX1080 once the TI is OC to about 1550mhz..... they perform about the same but obv pascal is more efficient and will thus last longer without the OC. However that being said you're better off with AMD and cheap FREESYNC screens and bang/$ on DX12...
a 1550 980TI will not hold up to a 1080, it won't even keep up with an overclocked 1070. And price performance wise a 1060 is the card to beat. AMD really had it going for a bit with the 480, but the 1060 kinda made it so the only reason to get one was if you had a hard budget
my local microcenter has 11 rx480s in stock.
this is in NY.
i've got 2 1080s for sli, so i won't be needing these. but for anyone around the area, buy them fast cuz they will be gone.
hell, maybe i should be a scalper and buy a couple of these for ebay.......NOT.
dude... wait the custom rx 400 haven´t even came out yet, they just started to customize all the cards. the nvidia custom cards haven´t even came out yet and the 1000 series came out earlier.
I'm just wondering if the 480 gets on here, will it be an actual price drop? Or will it be like the 1080 "drop" which was full price and shipping was 1-2 months after release?
You should signup to the mailing list , make sure you have Tech in your fav sections or whatever its called. you'll be getting daily mails with new offers and new drops. If the card you're after will be up there - you'll see it in that mailing.
Aside of that I don't know much , am new too.
