AMD will most probably showcase Polaris 10 and 11 during this event.
We’ve heard lately a lot of rumours surrounding Polaris 10, 11 and Vega. Vega is the high-end GPU from AMD and according to the latest rumours, this high-end GPU will be released this October (instead of early 2017). We strongly suggest taking this with a grain of salt, as those rumours really sound ‘fishy.’
Stay tuned for more!

cant wait.
Hope Amd beats Nvidia in performance per watt can’t wait
Is 1080p gaming dead with all these cards being 1440p 4k ready ?
1080p was old like 3 yrs ago, we all should move on, aiming for something more definite
Yeah i thought so that’s why i’m getting the gtx1080 sli setup and a 4k monitor
lol pss the gtx 1080 is only 6fps faster then the older fury x under real dx12 tests..lol here you go real dx12 tests no bs vulkan tests.
So, if you compare this to OC3D benchmarks, published on the 4th of April, you get this.
980Ti – DX12 -1440p/Crazy: 36.8
FuryX – DX12 -1440p/Crazy: 44.2
————————————————–
GTX1080 – DX12 – 1440p/Crazy: 49.6
there is only a 6 fps difference between the fury x and gtx 1080 in dx12…lol

Shut your mouth man… You can’t look at the Ashes benchmark and extrapolate all DX12 performance from that… Besides Ashes is Async Compute which is only one feature of DX12. It’s not a “DX12” (meaning using the complete feature set of DX12) benchmark it’s a “Async Compute” benchmark. You REALLY should stick to consoles fanboi…
not really 1440p is still expensive to game at 60fps.the gtx 970 is about the 1440p card you want right now not everyone has it. by next year 1440p will be killing it imo.
I got a 4k TV and monitor and yet i still use 1080 all the time 🙂 I think i wont switch to the new resolutions just yet. Heck, the lower resolution, the longer i dont have to upgrade my GPU. Thats how i last 3-5 years with 1 card. 🙂
Yeah whatever, i’ve been playing at 1080p for the last 6 yrs, but started feeling pretty 3 yrs back
we still arnt even close to a single card for 4k/60fps gaming thats when 4k will take off.
pss yes they do the gtx1080 is only 6 fps faster then the fury x in real dx12 tests not that bs doom vulkan tests.

try again.
people are blind to the truth.
my bad i though you said 380x.yea the 390x is more in line with the 970 and 980.i can see amd releasing a cheap mid range card with that power.for polaris
polaris with fx zen i cant wait.
we are still off from 4k/60fps gaming a few years by how things are going.when a single card can do 4k/60fps thats when ill game in 4k.
i talking about a mid range card not a $600 gpu or sli and crossfire.
when a single mid range card for about $260 can run 4k/60 thats when ill 4k game.
ill wait a few more years and the consoles will have 4k gaming even at 30fps it still 4k gaming.
id rather spend money on vr instead of 4k gaming right now.if you spend $3k on a pc save some money and get vr .
VR isn’t ready just yet, Need 2.0!
Resolution is crap think 1080p through a fly wire screen.
Here is my 2 cents,1440p is a massive jump I could never go back, It’s even more impressive if you get a 1440p 144hz or higher hz screen.
IPS isn’t as great as some people make it out to be unless you are into photography and want pictures you take to actually look like they do on camera.
I own an old 27inch Asus 1080p 120hz, Both 27inch Asus ROG swifts 1440p TN 144hz and the IPS 165hz, And a 28inch Samsung 4k TN 1ms response.
Dropped back to 1440p because 4k at 60hz is utter crap although the picture is absolutely stunning and the colours! I’ll go back when we have 120hz 4k G Sync/Free Sync monitors with display port 1.3.
One other thing is on latest games at 4k if you want eye candy cranked up you will need two high end cards, Even my 2x980ti EVGA overclocked cards can struggle on some games.
Side by side the two 1440p ROG Swifts I actually think the TN is slightly better, I can’t stand the IPS glow which is unavoidable on any IPS screen, Both are calibrated and I think the TN also has better colours, Seem a bit deeper/richer. lol
The so called superior viewing angles on IPS don’t mean anything to me at all seeing as I sit directly in front of the screen like 99% of people do at a pc. Only reason I am using the IPS now is that lovely 165hz.
Can you notice a difference from 144hz to 165hz? I certainly can.
Open a folder on windows desktop and drag it around on both screens, On the 165hz it feels so smooth that it’s almost like a fluid motion dragging it around as if there is no refresh rate.
Also if you are a gamer that spends many hours make sure your next screen has either Free Sync or G Sync, I honestly could never go back to a normal screen, Been spoilt. 😉
4k on a single gpu at a constant 60fps is about 6-8 months away in my opinion, It will be on AMD and Nvidia’s full die cards which will cost a small fortune.
Hope this helps in some way,
Shane
We will destroy the competition.
looking forward how this will compete in a performance per watt comparison with Nvidia’s latest! Hope Amd wins.
Yey cant wait.
Has to be better Performance per watt than Nvidia.
The 1080 is only 20% faster than a 390x on Ashes of the Singularity and Hitman and yet it costs twice as much.
Give us a break Nvidia, no wonder consumers as well as big businesses are buying AMD lately.
