Very exciting stuff to come but in those charts are u sure the 2ghz hbm will produce 1024gb/s because current hbm at 500mhz does 512gb/s, Theoretically shouldn't it quadruple that on the same bus size?

If they deliver 390X performance in 380 price range it will sell like hotcakes
I`m already saving money for 480 or 480x

After seeing those values, I would not call it 'Close'.
Undying
If true that will be a hit.
Anyway ,is that the chip that will be in PS4.5?

Am I the only one reacting to the fps of the onscreen results?
They look eerily akin to v-sync frame cap at 60 fps.
Taking the offscreen results into account this new card seem to deliver 46-72% of the 390X' performance. Not very impressive.
However, since we know nothing about the rest of test system, these values are sadly all but irrelevant.

Im not buying until i see double frame rate from 290x/390x .(example. from 60 to 120 fps in 4K)

On screen is pretty close, but off screen could be a little higher.
But if this sucker can handle some voltage and some overclocking, that should either lessen or eliminate the gap. 😀

155.2 FPS vs 215.7 FPS
121.8 FPS vs 182.9 FPS
528.3 FPS vs 749.7 FPS
how is that close? am i missing something here or did everyone check the onscreen performance which is capped by vsync at 60fps and ignored offcreen the one that actually matters? :3eyes:

So let's say the specs of the 480 system aren't as good as the 390x one and the performance delta is closer to 20%. A 480x could definitely come in at 390x speeds, which is basically what we saw with the Hitman benchmark.
A 390x @ $300 / 232mm2 isn't bad at all. If they want to compete with Pascal, they could easily just xfire them or do a dual GPU based on it.

We don't even know if the systems were similar, right? It's just teasing from all sides.
