AMD RX 480 PCB and GPU Photo Surface - Meet Ellismere
The launch of the AMD Radeon RX 480 is getting closer and closer. Today the firt photo surfaced of a (what seems to be) reference Radeon RX 480 with the cooler removed, and this the photo shows a glimpse of the PCB and GPU.
The product would be Polaris 10, based on the Ellismere architecture as spotted on NewEgg. The 14 nm FinFET+ process based Radeon RX 480 will perform above 5 TFLOPS. With it's 150 TDP it'll have 36 CUs x 64 shader processors per CU = 2304 Shader processors). The card will be available in both 4GB and 8GB versions and has 256-bit GDR5 memory at 256 GB/s (= 8 Gbps effective much like the GeForce GTX 1070). The card will run in the 1267 MHz range on it's boost clock. The card will start at 199 USD for the 4GB model. 8GB models will also become available. The product did not get a launch date.
Judging from the photo the reference PCB and this GPU and memory are powered with a single 6-pin PCIe power connector. You can see a 6-phase VRM power supply design. Monitor display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.0a connectors. As you can see there are also traces on the PCB for a DVI connector, socustom-design AIB cards should implement it.
Small note, this could also be the Radeon RX 470, we are fairly certain that both cards will share the same PCB design as well as the same chip. Also I added a more close-up photo of the Radeon RX 460.

So that is the 480, thought it was the 470 myself after seeing this though it doesn't really say which is which although the exposed one with the fan is probably the 460.

EDIT: Maybe the 470 and 480 kinda look the same?
(The article actually does state that the 470 is the one shown on top which is the same as the PCB shown here, I missed that when I initially read the article.)

RX-460 with cooling weaker than many chipsets have...
Reminds me of GF-MX4000. Just change of cooling allowed me to reach 50% OC.

I like the way amd operates lately. Like the low power consumption and for entering the mid range market. Not everyone has money to spend on 1070 and 1080 and keeping the power consumption low helps for people without proper PSU's to be able to have a good experience. Also having great dx12 performance is great. I'm no amd fanboy but having lower price/performance does help us here in South Africa where things aren't exactly cheap.

I'll be optimistic and go 250€... some friends of mine are visiting the US next month, maybe I'll ask them to bring me one back if the EU price turns out to be ridiculous. 200$ is cheap enough that I don't mind not being able to use danish warranty systems.

Or maybe be realistic as this will be more like 300 £ at the beginning. At least in the UK/ireland.
Scan and others are asking 600-650 £ for a 1080....thats 850 to 920 $
Crazy MOFOs...

I checked them in Switzerland shops. They have custom GTX 1080 cheaper than we have Founder's Editions. That puts custom vs Custom as quite cheaper there.
And Their buying strength is like 4 times as high as ours
Those big shiny buildings in Brussells are probably reason for Brutal prices things Sells at in EU.
- j/k, everyone loves EU. - j/k again

No DVI port... oh well, looks like korean monitor owners won't be happy with it.

Yes, but unfortunately adapters ruin overclockability of monitor.
I still don't understand why Nvidia keeping it, but props to it.

NICE
Think only having to use a GPU block, and not a large cooling block to cool with it,cheap to have water cooling on
