hey everyone so despite being with AMD a few days ago they gave us a 4am news announcement that we had to get up and do in 90 degrees in Taipei at 7am so this is the Radeon r x 480 I just got this information we have the specs of the card the price on the release date before getting into that all this coverage is brought to you by msi and their new x99 a broad well II motherboards including the gaming pro carbon first off it is a two-hundred-dollar card the Radeon r x 480 they are not using the r9 r7 branding and the RX 480 has these respects 5 teraflops it has 36 compute units or c use its running 256 gigabyte per second memory bandwidth has eight gigabit per second data rate on the die for the gddr5 memory so g5 memory as it is shortened is maxes out at about eight gigabits per second and most cards in the mid-range to high-end do run that eight gigabit per second data rate it has four or eight gigabytes of gddr5 and we're not sure what the price is on the eight gigabytes or the four we don't know if it's if it's different or not the memory interface is 256 bits there's a 150 watt TDP for polaris 10 architecture probably polaris 10 anyway the card is branded as a giant air quotes VR premium I'm not quite sure if I really care about that since every manufacturers branding everything as if you are ready now it's got free sync support DP at 1.3 and 1.44 DisplayPort it supports HD are on 1.4 release date is jun 29th and released price is two hundred dollars it is probably on Polaris 10 and we're unsure if the 8 gigabyte model will be 250 or if they're all going to be 200 definitely 4 gigabyte will be below two hundred dollars for the reference card though and as far as the the high end of Polaris it looks like there's not going to be a high end that's kinda what the rumors have been for a while now Polaris seems to be pointed strictly at the mid-range market and budget market and then we'll see viga or Vega whatever for the high-end later this year that is slated for 2016 and it is also slated for HB m2 which would be the first card that's art sit outside of the p100 Tesla accelerated card which is not a gaming card as far as competition the 8 gigabyte version of the RX 480 would be directly competing with the gtx 1070 which is 8 gigabytes of gddr5 we just reviewed it and how the performance metrics online that card at the low end is priced at three hundred eighty dollars so even if the 8 gigabyte are x 480 is 250 which we don't know if it is that would still be kind of separate markets for the two of them they wouldn't necessarily directly compete in price there's 130 dollar gap so that's all we have for this radeon r x 480 we were not given information on other cards just yet again release date jun 29th priced $200 5 teraflops and that pretty much wraps it up for the reference card the aib models the partner models i don't know if they're gonna be cheaper than two hundred dollars not but we will certainly try and find out so as always stay tuned for the rest of computex coverage you can find the links in the description below for information on this video card thanks for watching patreon link apparel video we'll see you all next time
