Just a heads up, new cards are coming out next year and the year after and the year after and the year after and then after that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that and that

Should be much cheaper then..

Now that is just silly. I'd wait 85 years but not 86 for a decent refresh.

Changed significantly, there's a few good articles out there recently which dictate how AMD have improved the drivers to such a degree that the 480 has eclipsed the 1060.

Both of these were before the recent 16.12 ReLive driver set which I'd expect will have further improved performance. In addition, with Radeon Chill you can now ensure your card is working as effectively as possible whilst still delivering your frame target (lower power, less heat, less fan).

The nVidia fan boys of this site don't like it though... They'll be cold voting.

Not worth an upgrade.

You beat me to it :P

Stonking deal. Depending on what Santa delivers tomorrow, I might order one (if there are any left).

An up to date review for anyone considering one:

Any RX480 8GB would be a good deal at this price, but this one is the 'all bells and whistles' model.

hooooootttttt :smiley:

this or gtx970?

Is the MSI RX480 any better then this?! Just like satchef1 if nothing else comes alone might get this. Missed out all Black Friday and since happened deals. :neutral_face:

Tempted, still on a 7850 that is slowly dying.

if this comes with civ6 you can sell the code which reduces the effective cost as well.
