I highly doubt the monitor is at fault. I'm trying to find a picture of that benchmark now, could someone find it?

Said it wasn't likely. I would, but trying to work on an English project.

Agreed, something looks different.

 

It could be the monitor angle or something, but hard to tell.

 

Weirdly enough, to me, it just looks like the one on the left is just more zoomed out...

Yeah, the right side is definitely more detailed.

All we know, the monitor might be faulty. While that's not likely, lets try and find out the whole story before jumping to conclusions.

Nvm, I forgot that youtube live can roll back . I will capture some screen now

Already been posted don't worry about it.

notice how one has the brown on the mountains and one doesn't, yet it's the same position on the map.

This is every single different scene in their "benchmark", I think the different in terrain detail is quite clear, and in some case the number of unit it also really different too. I'm not too familiar with the AoS Benchmark so anyone can tell for certain can you set those setting up in the benchmark? (like number of unit etc?)

The presenter also said clearly that the right one is the 700$ card, so we know without a doubt which side is which now

Yeah, this isn't gonna be a big shitstorm for AMD or anything...

I'm totally not pissed at AMD for lying about that.

 

Absolutely not mangling a baby right now because of it.

 

Man, I thought Nvidia's temperature thingy was bad.

This may be a stupid question but I don't know enough about AMD's naming scheme -- is the RX 480 the R9 480, the R9 480X, or a different card altogether?

The name for this card is RX 480. They want to confuse all of us LOL. I guess R10 isnt as catchy of a name as RX. There will probably be a RX 480X later

so it is separate from the R9 series? those will be coming later?

we might not see any r9 series. They switched up the naming scheme

They never said what side is what GPU. And it's a live feed so it could of been set up wrong but the benchmark is still right. So so far those pics mean nothing, but speculation.

Pretty sure they did. Lemme look at the video again.

They said CLEARLY that the one on the right is the $700 one. I listen to it again as I took those screenshot.

[Energycore]

Found it. VOD at 36:59

 

 

[Energycore]

Then at 38:10 Raja talks about utilization on those cards. He says it's got more headroom (so basically, hasn't been fully optimized yet).

I'm hoping AMD isn't just going down the flush, financially.

They wont. They still have the console market and they just sign a deal worth 1.5 billions USD recently if my memory serve it purpose. 

[lonewolf5460]

They just posted a video check it out 199 is confirmed cant wait for some review this changes a lot for my upgrade plans since my goal was 1440p gaming and since a r9390 can handle 1440p and this is supposed to be that powerful. I can get my ultrawide without a major upgrade to my rig and wait for something new in the cpu space in the upcoming 2 years.

But they pretty much bid so low on console that they pretty much gave them away, as far as I know.
