AMD Computex Event-Polaris, Bristol Ridge, and ZEN!!!

He said $500, so I'm guessing that means 8GB RX 480 is $250. They better have more benches, because Ashes is by far the best case performer for AMD. If he's only showing Ashes this is going to be a disappointing card. Crap, I was excited over R9 390x for $199. :(

Dude it is about equivalent to a 390(x). That was in 4k high settings or 1440p extreme (only way a 1080 goes under 60 fps.)

I guess everyone left after Polaris there is one guy double parked on the front row. 

 

This is apu has no zen, no HBM? Why get excited? Lol

I really was hoping for more deets on Polaris.

 

I'm having a hard time keeping my attention now.

2xRX480 8GB only beats 1080 by that little amount in Ashes DX12? Shit, it's not going to be competitive at all in DX11 games then.

Dx11 is not the future. Nvidia can revel in the past all they want while the industry moves forward. Just as suspected, BF1 is dx 12 with async compute.  Mass effect Andromeda is next since it uses this engine too. Watch dogs 2 confirmed to be working with amd.  Deus ex? Even doom devs just took a shit on Nvidia. I'm not a fan of sli or xfire,  but a 1080 getting shit by $400 worth of graphics cards in an API of the future is pathetic. It's a good thing they released gp104 now to make as much money as possible, because vega is going to make the 1080 and 1070 look like a joke.

Probably more around 230-235$ for the "480x" Unless they go with less SKUs

All the people who said "Nah DX11 won't go away in the next 5 years" are getting shat on with all new AAA games supporting DX12.

 

Also, in-podium Engineer count: 5.

In a few weeks. Q4 release hasn't slipped yet. Desktop before laptop. Interesting.

That presentation was sad.....

AMD sure didn't look very proud of Polaris 10. R9 390x performance at $199 might be a pipe dream after all. What a disappointment, they only showed a single benchmark for dual RX 480 8GB in Ashes of the Singularity, which is heavily optimized for AMD over Nvidia. If it was a good card you'd think they'd want to show it off instead of getting off stage as fast as possible.

I agree that wasn't very exciting for the non-techies
