It's not about thinking. It is or it isnt. Looking at specs and going by what amd say it should be. We will find out soon enough

I'm betting their close. I decided to get a 1070, so I'm anxious to get that.

I don't care about having bleeding edge graphics but being able to run today's games would be nice.

Does the $200 AMD card allow me to play games like those on PS4 or X1? I'd like to play Killer Instinct and other X1 games not available on PS4.

A $100 750ti allows you to play games like Ps4. An Rx480 would pretty much be able to max every game out there at 1080p and still be able to pull 60fps even if the performance is on the lower estimates ( equal to 970) and if its on gtx980 performance ( that some leaks suggested ) i expect even 1440p 60fps and max settings will be easy doing for rx480

Well, KI is on PC, and so will future X1 games.

This is not a SW topic - plus the impending benchmarks will speak for themselves. Locking
