RX480 Giveaway.

Good Morning All,

AMD are doing giveaways of RX480 on the twitch channel (http://twitch.com/amd) later today in 3 hours and again on friday.

im not affiliated in with them just thought you might like to know to try and get in your hands the new asus (non reference) card (not even available on retail yet).

Same time friday?

In the specs the memoryclock is like 1650mhz, while the 480 is 2000mhz. Most of the speed is related to the memory.

However they come out next week so we will see how they actually perform.

The 470 won't be good for ETH mining probably because of the low memory clock speed.

I read some speculation that if there are aftermarket 8GB versions, those would have higher memory clocks. Somewhere I read that the 470 should overclock more easily than the 480 for some sort of technical reason. If both of these happen and are true than some 8gb 470's could achieve what the 480 hashes.

Even if the 470 is weaker which is natural, it still draws less power and cost less to purchase.

I think (and Phil also) that aftermarket 480 will be around fall semester starts. Which is ~19-20th of August

You can already find the Saphire 480's on Amazon, but not for sale yet

Are these aftermarket ones?

Saphire Nitro+

sold out  but I think yes

RX 470
http://videocardz.com/62642/amd-radeon-rx-470-to-launch-on-august-4th-rx-460-on-july-28th

Another page mentioning August 4th. And speculation about 8gb AIB's with faster speeds and more OC headroom than the RX480.... possibly faster and more efficient than a 480 for mining?
http://videocardz.com/62672/amd-radeon-rx-470-and-radeon-rx-460-official-specs-and-performance

There are already leaks of the Saphire RX470 so it is possible the custom 470's won't take too long to arrive.

RX 480's, and they all use 8 pin connectors
