Ahmm how about pro AMD and Pro Nvidia forum? Cup half empty or half full in other words?
I think here it is more in getting to the bottom of things or finding truths. Sometimes it takes a torturous path finding it.
Kyle and Brent, you might want to wait for the bios fix to the power issue before investing a lot of time in benchmarking, so that your numbers reflect what cards will be doing once AMD fixes them. Have a nice weekend instead.
Maxwell had control of power draw from slot/connectors in BIOS, FYI.
CMOS power is approximately linear with clock speed. Drop the clock by 25%, and all else being equal, the power dissipated by the circuit will drop by 25% too.
TL;DR: Jay recommends getting a single higher performance card that costs less than two RX 480s, by which he means, the GTX 1070.
We all aren't anti -AMD. There are some folks here that still know what scruples are. The whole world has filled with band-wagon wanna-be's. They think they always make the right choices and anyone who chooses otherwise is a tool. It's OK though, because the higher you go the further you fall. They are like cult followers. You can thank stupid fucking churches and companies like Apple that foster the cult like mentality. Oh and the US Government for propaganda for making its population feel like they are better than everyone else, when in reality this country was built on slavery and genocide. /rant off

This is false. The chip itself AMD states is rated at 110W (I have seen reports/screenshots showing it exceeds this). PCPer is showing pretty much an equal power load from the PCIe and 6 pin.
Nice. Maybe they like those extra cores. I definitely want to see more crossfire results with both regular quad core cpu's and the 8 core guys like this and the FX series.
I didn't know. Link?
So, no link. hehe..well alrighty then.Because I trust Brent.. he is not paid by AMD to say good things on forums. but answering the fact that brent doesn't have issues doesn't mean issues doesn't exist out there. just check several of the few threads about the RX 480 powergate no need to derail this thread re-posting things.
You are new here.. nothing strange.
Why dont you say the same thing about the "you know who's" that bash anything and everything AMD 24/7....If your gonna call Elmy out call those out who freely admitted working for Nvidia today! Also i believe Elmy is "sponsored" but not employed by AMD. Slight difference i think.
i call it like i see it. Know one puts that much effort into doing "that" day after day on every web site for free.....but hey we can disagree
Did you raise your power target to +50%?
