New version of GPU-Z with Polaris support is out, so shouldn't be too long before we see some proper leaks with all the vital statistics.

this thread has more leaks than the triton wc one..cant wait for the release of this card,should be a healthy upgrade from my 960..no firm details on uk price tho?

Why havent we seen any benchmarks done with the Rx480 overclocked past 1266 mhz yet ?

kalniel · 20 Jun 2016 at 13:24

I wouldn't get too hung up on driver versions - it's entirely possible that release/review drivers are based off a stable version rather than using the absolute latest betas available for existing cards. At some point the changes will be merged.

Really doubt that. The new cards won't be cheaper than the old ones. A 390 8gb is around 220. Pretty sure we've only seen the price in dollars. It's my understanding that cards from the US are much cheaper than over here.

Most (all?) states don't have sales tax on internet purchases. Back when the exchange rate was 1.6USD/£1 I would just stick 20% on the price and that would be roughly correct. Now the dollar has strengthened you may need to put 25 - 30% on top.

Speculation, positivity, negativity, just a repeat of the 15 pages before that.
