is he claiming vsync as an AMD new feature?

Yep....

Sounds like Radeon Pro's Dynamic Frame Rate limiter feature has been included into AMD's official drivers. Pretty handy for ppl who don't use RPro.

It's vsync without input lag.

360 for $109... price is right.

Started..

"World's fastest GPU performance" and "World's most power efficient GPU".

Bold words.

Yup. It does not agree with the leaked slides a few posts above.


Will leave it streaming in the background and switch as soon as I hear something about the fastest graphics card or the like.

Give me a break talking about the R9 3 series.. don't even bother. Why not harp on Fiji, forget those other cards. I just don't get it. Why not focus on the only interesting thing they've got going.

 

[Udgnim]

going to have to wait to the end for Fury

 

[cbrunny]

$199 for the 380...

Well launches always talk about the best products last nothing new here.

$329, $429 for 390 & 390X... Available Thursday.

 

[tviceman]

$429 290x rebrand.

 

[Azix]

$429 for a 390x. hahahhahahaha . bye

buying ps4. screw this

 

[96Firebird]

Didn't Nvidia compare GM104 to GK104? It's not uncommon to compare to older generations instead of direct competition in marketing slides...

 

[Silverforce11]

I just wanna know the perf & power consumption...

 

[DiogoDX]

Not vsync. Frame limited on the driver. Not a big deal.

 

[cbrunny]

390 & 390X are 8GB? I must have missed that...

 

[beginner99]

$429 for a 390x. hahahhahahaha . bye

Yeah, thats a joke. Either it's not a rebrand or bye bye AMD. At that price I will get a 970/980 or get a 290. (So 290(x) are not that cheap here as in US).

Wow....yeah, just get 2x290 now instead. lol

But AMD is comparing a product already out on the market, rebranded with a new name - to a card / gpu chip still already out on the market. Nvidia compared a brand new chip to a chip that was immediately being discontinued.

From TWO generations ago??

 

[Head1985]

wtf 429usd for 290x rebrand

 

[AnandThenMan]

Everyone does, but given they are saying nothing about it I'm gonna assume everything but Fiji is a straight up rebrand so nothing to talk about. If true this is really really bad for AMD. Like epic face plant bad.

 

[therealnickdanger]

Bold move selling a rebranded 290 for the same price as a 970. Although, 8GB VRAM will sway any fears when comparing them side by side at Best Buy. LOL

Lots of DX12 focus. That will be HawaiiGrenada's strength, I think.

 

[MrTeal]

Wow, a $430 390X. If there's not a bunch more performance over the 290X, that's a complete failure.

 

[exar333]

Yeah. Feels like AMD just ignored the 980Ti launch and said 'full steam ahead with our previous pricing!'
