Now you just need to wear blue as well and ditch red altogether.
I'm wearing blue and white right now and blue is actually my favorite color. My computer is all blue and white even.

In all seriousness, good read: http://wccftech.com/radeon-rx-480-3d-mark-benchmarks/

Your about a year late.
This makes me happy that my 390 isn't totally useless now. It's just a really power hungry 480!
Seriously though, this is insane. The R9 380 was a pretty noticeable step down in performance from the 390 tier and now the 480 is that price if not cheaper. My (ex)roommate has a 380 and plays games at 1080p. I run games at higher settings and higher frames than him while at 1440p with my 390. He bought his 380 about 5 months ago for over $200. :/

to be fair, my D-Blocker (darren block) app is working stunningly well..
This is hugely ironic since your responding to me in my own thread. Might want to check out the D-Blocker.

The app was down for maintenance...bugger off!
I'm again dubious, I've heard less than stellar reviews of this site but if this is true then holy sheeiiittt

It confuses the ever-living shite out of me when they don't include the 980Ti in benchmarks like this.
Anyway, that's some extremely impressive performance for a $200 card
(provided the article/benchmarks aren't a sham).
Benchmarks are going to depend a lot on the game and the resolution and settings used. Some games/benchmarks may be more optimised for NVIDIA and others AMD. Would be amazing if we are looking at performance like that though. $200 and faster than the GTX 980 and not far off the R9 Fury X. @Origin Saint this RX 480 might be about the same speed or a little slower than the GTX 980 Ti given its performance in relation to the 980 and the Fury X in these benchmarks. This would be one of the biggest generational leaps we've ever seen!
We will have to wait to wait for the card to be released and see what the benchmarks are like then.
