Re: Need suggestions for 4gpu setup

Is this the only solution you know of? If so 2 systems with 2gpu in each would work out far cheaper maybe I should wait to see what zen offers on launch.

Need suggestions for 4gpu setup

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

since the new drivers are out i thought id ask for those that have the 480 has it affected your power draws using f@h or you general ppd it would be great to see reports of what the 480 is doing f@h wise but it seems very few people have this card yet or arnt using it for f@h at least.

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

OK will do since some pics of a sapphire nitro have been seen and the change to 8pin and 175w tdp looking forward to what the card is really capable of since initial rumors of this card being able to hit 1.5-1.6ghz would see a fair increase in f@h performance and to see what the power draw is with t...

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

Rumor has it and from suspected leaks the 1060 will be somewhere between the 970 and 980 in performance estimated tdp of 120w which will be quite interesting as we could see sub 100w for around 250-300k ppd but im not expecting the 1060 to be same price as the 480 I'll guess there will be a £50~ inc...

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

Is there any more updates to how the 480 is performing now it's been out a few days. The custom coolers from board patters should be out soon also rumors of a nvidia 1060 are circulating on the web

Re: AMD Polaris GPU

Looking at early reports are saying around 300k ppd for the 480 which is kind of dissapointing considering the floating point performance of the 480 is similar to the 980ti. From threads I have read I think this is allot to do with optimazations around amd cards is lacking in compared to nvidia am I...

Re: Amd rx 480 now released

I know amd took over ati I still thought they used the atI branding as ive seen in shops I've adjusted the topic discription. From review it seems in terms of performance the 480 is similar to the 980 still wondering how it will perform on the f@h front
