I don't understand the 'deals' on these cards. The 960 and 380 were both often hovering at £139 a few months back. I know, I know, time machine comments etc. but GPUs tend to fall in price, these are going the wrong way. Market's pretty stale at the moment!

The R9 380 is also a good buy for around this price.

Nice, so I infer there were problems with the Nano and you wanted to get rid of it.

Cry wolf? I did no such thing.
Why did you switch from Nano to Fury X? You are avoiding the question.
GTX 960 and R9 380 trade blows in most games, perhaps with the GTX 960 having a slight advantage.

That explains Async Compute, but it doesn't show how much impact it'll have on future DX12/Vulkan games. That's what's important here. AOST is not a good example.
Why did you buy a Nano in September when the Fury X was available, then switch to the Fury X?

You could say I do the same for Intel then.

You've wasted at least 6 months of your life marketing for AMD, congratulations.

lol.
I have never even visited reddit.
I am a fan of both Intel and AMD products. If you have to call me a fnboy so be it. But slating me for pointing to benchmarks that were only meant to help people out and were not cherry picked is just ridiculous.
Especially if as you say, you prefer AMD. Its not like I was lying about anything. I fail to understand what your drama is tbh.
PS I am also very much a huge fan of Intel products.
So that makes me an AMD and Intel fanboy.

Being a fanboy of anything is completely irrational.
In my personal experience, for budget Intel CPU builds (dual core) pick a Nvidia GPU, for a budget quad core or higher CPU build pick an AMD card. AMDs driver overheads cause issues on a dual core rigs - GTA V etc was PAINFUL for me until I swapped my G3258 for an i5-4670k, even though my R9 280 is still a decent card.

I have never said I was not. You are the one who accused me of cherry picking so I have a right to defend my actions. How is that a problem to you?
I never Cherry picked and if people wnat to check for themselves they are perfectly entitled to do so. You are being completely irrational.

Please stop. I'm a big fan of AMD GPUs but you're not doing yourself or them any favours - people see you as a fanboy now so it's too late.

This was not cherry picked at all.
For anybody wanting to find benchmarks themselves simply google
evga superclocked 960 AMD 380 benchmarks then click and see for yourself. You will see the images I posted here are near the top of the images shown as I cherry picked nothing.
God, I was not even trying to make a point before. But now I am.
The 380 is faster than this and there is plenty of evidence to prove it if you look yourself.
There are plenty of other articles on that site that point to Nvidia being a really bad company to buy your GPU from in 2016.

Exactly. I'm no fan of Nvidia but I can't be doing with people cherry picking figures to prove a point.

This is cherry picked SOOO hard.
Check this review out, it shows both the 380 and the 960 winning different games.
(Note this is a review of a 960, so the fact there is only one award given doesn't mean they believe the 380 is a bad card, they say they trade blows.)
Who would play GTA V with a 2k display using the R9 380 or the Nvidia 960? Who cares about synthetic benches that show about 6% difference?

Yea, retailers need to be reducing these but if anything they are quite high most places right now.
However this is a decent deal and should have more heat than it has.

I might buy it just to spite Ferrari and his ridiculous bias (for an upgrade).

Was there a GTX 960 4GB for £139? Maybe it was 2GB version?

Yeap, everybody is waiting for pascal to launch after summer, then we will see all these cards tumble in price, we just have to wait, and that's the hard bit, as i am in the market for a 970/980, but i know waiting until pascal launches will snag me a cracking 970/980 at a really good price.

So this will play 4K movies to a 4K TV without issue?

Yeah. Supports native HDMI 2.0, hardware accelerated HEVC, 10bit too. Very good HTPC GPU.

That's just one benchmark though. I'm not disagreeing that the R9 380 is a better card but not for everyone.

25 Jan 161#4
Yeah agreed at this price point it's really going to be preference between Nvidia & AMD as both these cards will comfortably do 1080p and can match and even surpass a GTX 970 when 2 are in sli moving towards 1440p if you can afford a high end monitor.
Little surprised this hasn't got hotter, oh well.
Daz555 to rev6
25 Jan 16#5
Indeed. The 380 drinks a lot more juice though at 190W v the 120W of the 960.

25 Jan 16#10
Yup with the Saphire Nitro card (which has a tasty factory OC) is reguarly on offer for around £140-150, I honestly don't see why these 960's are gaining heat at this price.

Was looking at this the other day but decided to go for the MSI instead as I managed to get a barely used one on ebay for £135.

Don't think I've seen this variant before. I've been watching the 4gb SSC version of this which is the one I'm after.

On top of that who would want to buy products from a company who consistently lie.
