We finally have confirmation of the RX 480 8GB price: $229.

AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB to cost 229 USD

According to AMD Poland, Radeon RX 480 8GB will cost 229 USD. Of course this is just a suggested retail price, so it will likely be higher at launch, especially in regions where stock is limited.

Translation:
Suggested (retail) price is 229 USD (for 8GB model, 199 for 4GB). The price in Polish zloty will be determined closer to the launch, to avoid differences in exchange rates.

Meanwhile, according to Andrew “Gibbo” Gibson from Overclockers UK, there won’t be any custom designs available at launch on June 29th. Gibbo also speaks a little about RX 480 performance (obviously without any specific data, but I encourage you to check the link above for more info).

For those who don't know who Gibbo is, he works at Overclockers UK, one of the largest stores in the UK, and he usually knows the stuff he sells.

Arrr! Can't wait for these cards! For the full lineup of custom versions and OC tests. I hope stock is around the performance of 980, while after OC it gets near 980Ti. It would be the greatest steal in history of GPUs

Though unfortunately I really don't like what Sapphire showed, which is sad, considering I wanted to buy their card. I hope MSI and others release a sexy looking card.

Playing at UltrawideHD and using mods is the reason why I'm also going for 8GB. The difference in price is so indignificant, that there's no point risking devs will forever optimize games to run under 4GB.

If the RX 480 ends up being close to 980Ti in performance, it will be the deal of the century.

Which is a way to say that I don't think it will be that fast.

With current consoles having 8GB, it's worth getting the 8GB card even if you only plan to play at 1080p.

By the way, some weirdo chinese has made a livestream "review" of the RX 480. Nothing interesting has come out of it (so far), besides a few details like that it uses 14W at idle, or a picture of the new overclocking tool from AMD

I find it a bit high, to be honest.

For example, looking at the Tech Power Up review of the GTX 1070, there's plenty of cards that use less than that, even the 390...

I wouldn't put too much credit on the numbers from that "review". For example, he didn't even peel off the plastic protector

Videocardz has made a part 4 of their RX 480 rumors.

AMD Radeon RX 480 Rumors, Part 4

http://videocardz.com/61340/amd-radeon-rx-480-rumors-part-4

The article features a very detailed look at the reference RX 480 board and the heatsink, which looks quite simple.

Also, thanks to Newegg, we now know the base and boost clocks of the RX 480 at stock speed: 1120 and 1266 MHz

You beated me for 5" >.<

Just 7 more days. And with Steam sales in between, they'll fly by.

Asus and Gigabyte made small, single fan version of the 970. I don't see why they wouldn't do the same with this card too.

I'm waiting for the versions designed for OC. Double fans, extra power pins. I can't wait! I'm so excited about this GPU and what AMD releases this summer!
