R9 Nano, AMD Dissapoints again

[don_svetlio]

Which, still, you are paying $150 more for 3fps...totally worth it!

Jk not

Titan X is 350$ for more VRAM - people don't shit on it.

[ANewFace]

k, whatever(thats not the point), still this is a stock vs stock comparison.

Yep I know, and a card that cost $150 more beats the 980 by 5fps

Who ever said anything about the Titan X?

I do. I don't like the Titan X at all.

Trying real hard to get people to hate on this card...

 

I think it's cool, it finally offers a decent, though overpriced, solution to those who are into super compact builds.

I am - people are okay with 1000$ Titan X but not with a 650$ mITX powerhouse? le what?

These were non overclocked results, it's beats the 980 by less then 5 fps in most games, the 980 is a overclocking king, the Nano is barely going to be able to OC since it is already running hot. You up the 980 be 100mhz, and boom you are beating the Nano, so IMO the Nano doesn't beat the 980.

Also, stop with the, "Well this card does't suck because it's impressive that AMD, did this, or did that" it's an overpriced card, that fills a very small niche, it's pretty pointless

Again. "lol what"

Not everyone overclocks. No matter what you say some people are terrified of overclocking. Shove a 980Ti in a mATX and overclock that "beast". Also the aftermarket versions haven't come out yet. AMDs only thing with aftermarket is it has to stay at 6 inches. Asus, MSI, sapphire, and more will be very creative with this. It's not a pointless card. Like GodlyGamer said, mATX cases are coming more and more popular. Some people wanna pax Big performance in a small area. Well you could easily make a 8x8x6 inch case and have this card in it. Not everyone sees it as pointless. AMD drops the price $100 this puppy would sell BIG.

It's a Titan it's been around for years, people just accept they are $1000. Like the OG titan was like the same as a 780 and not any faster, but with 6GB of VRAM

But if the airflow sucks, RIP CPU

Well - It's a Nano - just accept it's 650$ and move on. Your words - not mine

You didn't read my post in less then a 30 seconds. You just skimmed threw it as fast as possible. Case makers are VERY creative now a days with mATX cases. There is always a way for them to get airflow to each part, no matter what.

The Titans are also made for video editing, and rendering, they are not gaming cards

Titan X branding was different. The original Titan advertisement was to show you could have a decent compute card and gaming graphics card together with full 64-bit computing. Titan X changed that - NVIDIA advertised it strictly as a gaming graphics card with no proper 64-bit computing capabilities and that's why I don't like it.

Also, I agree if it drop $100 it will sell great, if it were $550 I would have no problems

Titan X is not a compute card - it's a sorry excuse for a quick cash grab.

And is half the size....

 

You guys really need to learn how to value things more than just pure numbers. Using this whole "it cost too much" argument, my $650 cell phone doesn't have nearly as much GPU power as a $650 desktop GPU so is the phone shit? No its just not in the same category of desktop GPUs(despite them both being able to process 3D). Same thing with the Nano,  its not meant to directly compete with regular sized GPUs, this is targeted for SFF builds(which are gaining in popularity so calling them "niche" might soon be a thing of the past, especially with machines like Quantum and Steam machines literally right around the corner).

 

If you want to build a full size desktop though, I still don't see why buying a Fury isn't a viable option considering its cheaper than the Nano and still outperforms the 980.

Your making a big deal over nothing. Yeah they are over pricing it a smidge bit but once again. More and more people are wanting compact rigs. You could easily get a case with a Length x Width x Height of less then inches and still have great air flow. I'd personally love to have a case that's 8x8x6 inches. Imagine that, it'll be smaller then A shoebox with tons of power.

[don_svetlio]

Thing is - the only real competitor to this is the 970 mITX which is roughly 30% slower. So yeah.

Show me a pic of one of these cases, with cables and all I see no way that it could have good airflow

The CoolerMaster Elite 110 has vents directly in front of the GPU fan, so it has a lot of cooling for the GPU. As for the CPU, get a water cooler and call it a day.

 

My sister has one and her Zotac GTX 560, a pretty hot card in a normal case, tops out at 50c and the CPU, a Core i5 4690k tops out at 40c watercooled.

Did I ever say one existed? I don't truly know if one does but again, I'd love to own one. It would be amazing, companies are creative. They always find something, somehow, to do what the goal is.

Great case, just don't expect to be air cooling and use a non-modular PSU in there

Cooler Master Siedon 120 already has cooling for this . I'd have to look into this, no where near building a new PC right now.new things will be out by then.
