RX 470 (4Gb) vs GTX 1060 (3Gb)
For a long time was without the card, my 780Ti was sold a year ago for$ 500. Since the game for me has long moved away a little into the background, decided to allocate new only 250$. And when I looked what is going on in the market is slightly ofigel. How is it possible that nVidia sells higher-performance product at a lower price relative to AMD? What has changed for this year?It was always clear that memory capacity is not important and remember the days when video card manufacturers were not put at the time 2GB of memory and sold them for pennies hoping for a sucker, as only 800 MB then it was enough to wipe the dust various offers.
But in the days when 4Gb may not be enough, nVidia still with their three gigs is killing AMD but puts its price tag is not twice as expensive, but also cheaper, while that of the GTX 1060 fps in some games may be higher by almost two times than that of the RX 470.
Can anyone dispel my doubts on this? In fact where's the catch? Did AMD beat Intel and nVidia in a few months so that takes the money not for performance, but for the brand?

UPD all disturbances above at the moment are out of date, as speculation of prices RX 470 come to naught and the pricing was ustakanitsya. However, the topic based on the content of your title remains relevant.

Already chase 470, do so for your money :) 1060 for 6GB is of course even very good, but the 470 cost me 1.5-2 times cheaper. Took one person off Amazon, since there is no such markups...

You probably do not head friends. In the days of the geforce 7800 from AMD was a RADEON X850 XT. Which 7800 anal just and punish. I in those early years just bought their first top graphics card and since the amount was large, 600 bucks is chosen thoroughly.

Yes, those days were fun..
7800 gth released in early summer, if my memory serves me, it was 2005. ATI fell behind a competitor and released х1800хт only in the late autumn. And х1900хт/XTX in the spring of 2006 released because х1800хт, their opinion. not pulled, and NVIDIA had already kind of rolled out 7900гтх and 7900гт. I imagine in the early summer of 2006, just a new pitch took, took х1800хт with 256 MB RAM version. The card was a beast. Though very hot and noisy.

Inadequate pricing policy of AMD began with the release of 300 and fury series.
Take 1060 6GB on the benefit of almost 250$ will fit)

Why buy these cards as rx460, rx470, gtx1060 3gb? In a year these cards will be bent... should at least take a gtx 1070!
Shock Burst
And 1070 a year bent, because it is a 980ti, which is already more than a year)
Well toys already eating five gig of VRAM. I would not say that 4 gig will be bent in a year, the same 780ti 3gb still gives a head start.
Listoman
and it is not much cuts?

as it is we are either talking about some other time or on other maps.
I upgrade came in the spring - summer 2006 then the most powerful tolstushki cards was as pitch remember the Radeon 1900 and 7800-7900. other cards were not as I remember.
next, I smorel on the results of 3D mark. which card is gaining more the better. and as far as I remember the 7800 was not to lead.
what I eventually bought was a slightly different story is 512MB and I was then very weak and hungry.
NVidia cards also support Vulkan. )))

mm, I love to read clean imagined nonsense from victims of marketing. In fact just the opposite - game score of VRAM the same or less in the cards from AMD. Don't believe? Come look at the tests.

Vulkan, a very promising API that supports AMD
Yeah. Sooooo promising - came one game if I'm not mistaken, and it is unlikely that another track will be released. Bent and mantle, in his time.

7800 came out in the early summer of 2005. х1800хт in the fall of 2005. Before the release of х1800хт have 7800гтх had no rival, because Athy was х850хт re, which was a competitor to the 6800 ultra, and I. of course, poured 7800гтх.
And 7900гтх as х1900хт/XTX is already 2006.
Because 7800гтх and not in the lead, for by that time she was already a map of the past generation.
PS: although there was a more advanced version 7800гтх with 515 MB of memory in which the memory clock, and chip were notably higher than the 256 MB version is Huang issued a killer х1800хт, which is output slightly ahead of 7800гтх 256 MB.

Yeah, not what DX12, which puts Nvidia in Quantum Break, Rise of Tomb Raider and Hitman.

just do it in Rise of the Tomb Raider cards NVIDIA AMD cards faster. And дх12 there performance is higher than the dh11.
As for the Hitman, this game's engine is designed for AMD cards, as in the previous section Hitman. There is nothing surprising in this. There are games that are more loyal to AMD cards, there are those who prefer NVIDIA cards. The second more.
And дх12 it's all irrelevant.
