I agree with the Air 740 looking bad. The angles/arc angles just aren't appealing to me.
 
Now the 460x is something I could get down with.

Anyone else think the game looks boring and overhyped?

My guess:
rx 490 is the full Polaris 10 GPU that costs 300 bucks and has near 1070 performance (but a little below it).
Release date: sometime in July.

There is no known date, but AMD did say that their Polaris lineup would cover the 100-300$ range. I think the RX 490 might be the 300$ part, being a "full-fat" Polaris GPU (since the RX 480 is supposedly a cut-down version), with performance around the GTX 1070 level (or slightly lower). It makes no sense for it to be a Vega GPU, as nothing could compete with Nvidia's lineup for another half-year.

I feel like part of that is missing. And I ment with the supposed 480x being Fury performance at $250.

GTX 1070 (aka 3/4s GP104) and 100% Polaris 10 have similar processing cores numbers and die sizes. Whether one performs better will depend on architecture nuances but that marks them as a very clear "will compete" pair.
I heard that this rumor might be debunked? That perhaps we're seeing Vega in Q1 2017 after all.  Video cites the source. Start at 11 min.
 
 

Dumbest thing I've read. 

Can you even hear your new DAC if the walls of your descending colon are obstructing your auditory canal?

Everyone needs to see this video:
 
The boost clock enables the cards to pull out bigger numbers in reviews and benchmarks that use open case systems at which the boost clock can be maintained.
 
However, when tested inside an actual PC case, the GPU rises to 85 degrees within just 5 minutes of gaming, causing the GPU clock to deactivate its boost and throttle down to 1607 Mhz.
 
******** THIS ACTUALLY MAKES THE GTX 1080 FOUNDERS EDITION AROUND 10% SLOWER THAN A FACTORY OVERCLOCKED 980 Ti AT 1440p ********
 

It will probably settle at $399 for most cards. You probably can get low quality heatsink and fan 1070 for $379 though.

They could be showing off Polaris, Vega, Zen, and Bristol Ridge.
 
My assumption is that Vega and Zen would be the main NDA'd information while they are briefing the press on what to hype for Polaris and Bristol Ridge at Computex.

With Ivy IPC

If I was you, I'd go for the HyperX

I have had it for a year and a half now and it's awesome!

ok , i had the dumbest idea the other day , what if i was to use liquid nitrogen in a everyday system and make it work. at first i had the idea to put it in a conventional water cooler but then relised it would freeze up the pipes . then i had the thought " what if you where to put it in a custom metal loop and effectively cycle it around with a pump " then it would kinda be like a hardline loop.
 
this is a dumb idea i know but does anyone have any opinions on how to make it work

Seriously.....,

On the bright side we know that we will be getting good custom boards that include hybrids
 
Seems like the MSRP of $599 will only apply to ugly coolers, expect to have to shell out more money for a better card.

I know better than to listen to AMD marketing hype with how well Bulldozer went down.

i never trust cpuboss, their scores are so inaccurate.

You want a $600 GTX 1080 or a $700 GTX 1080? 

Zen's not exciting anything within me anymore.
Last i checked we're looking at Haswell IPC.
Maybe the Octacores and Hexacores will do well if they perform similarly to Broadwell-E at a much lower price, but i'm not impressed this late in the game.

AMD has already debunked this rumor saying that they will be at Computex. 
 

Yeah. I'm talking about the heatsink and fan as it relates to the 1070.

For the most part, these are just out of your budget, but some are pretty close.
