Posted July 4, 2016 What's with the extension nonsense again? Looks awful. I know it's a marketing stuff but even then it looks ugly. Do you guys care about the GPU having hefty and unnecessarily long shroud? Or would you buy one regardless of the length as long as the cooler is decent?

Taking away options is rarely a good thing. I have had to replace coolers before. Of course that was years ago and chips aren't as power hungry today and the coolers are better, but still. This is not a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 4, 2016 I like that NVIDIA kept the 6-pin power off of the PCB, so you don't get that weird cable management like on the RX 480, but I'm curious what that'll mean for disassembling the card or even water blocks. if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

I think they didn't plan on anybody water cooling mid range cards like this. Also why it probably won't support SLI. So if you wanted to then yes it would probably be an issue, but I kinda doubt you'll be able to find a cooler. Still kind of annoying if you ever want to reapply thermal paste and such. ------- Current Rig ------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 4, 2016 Please don't fuck this up. Please don't fuck this up. Please don't fuck this up.... If the rumored 250 USD MSRP is accurate then it will probably be the same or faster than the RX 480. Hopefully we will get non-FE versions shortly after as well. Seems like they are better deals when it comes to the GTX 1070 and 1080, so it will probably be true for the 1060 as well. 2 hours ago, Mr_Troll said: nvidia doing the same mistake as amd did with the 480. Wow. GJ. and GL. I wouldn't count on it. The problem isn't that the RX 480 uses a single 6-pin per se. The problem is that the TDP should have been something like 170W instead of the 150W advertised, the card draws too much power for having a single 6-pin (draws above 150 watts) and the way it distributes the power draw between the PCIe slot and the 6-pin connector. Those three things together creates the problem with the RX 480. Pascal is a lot more efficient than Polaris, so it is very possible that it will have the same or better performance as the RX 480, but without any of the high power draws, or power draw distribution problems. 1 hour ago, Misanthrope said: And you had to reach so far you went back 6 years into the past, gg.

Posted July 4, 2016 GP104 = 1080 and 1070 GP106 = 1060, wut? Also the TDP is a bit of a mystery tbh. It says it uses 120W, and it has half as many CUDA cores as the 1080, which has a 180W TDP. Unless the IPC is higher on the GP106 than the GP104 i don't think this will be good... Also 1.7-2Ghz with 1 6-pin seems one hell of a challenge. It will be a nice comparison of how good their IPC's is. If you want my attention, quote meh!
