You mean those powercolor-sapphire-xfx ones? With ref cooler? I am not counting those, i'm talking aftermarket cooling solutions, obviously. Aaaand lets not forget, US isn't all the market, how about the prices rest of the world....that right...
edit: Ie here at this moment, there is no RX 480 stock sub 300euro...likewise no gtx1070 sub 500...

Hold on, so now we are just changing our statements... You said and I quote:
You never specified if it was ref or custom and by putting down a dollar sign you are pretty much aiming at US prices.I doupt you are going to see 200$ for RX480
I think AMD said the 4 GB ref coolers will cost 200 dollars, the 8 GB ref coolers would be 230-240, with custom models being more expensive probably adding another 20 dollars. In Europe prices are 220 for the 4 GB model and 260 for the 8 GB model. At the moment they are selling for a bit more than that in NL and DE.
So you should probably adjust your expectations to info that AMD released...
Who the hell is going to be buying a reference model? Are you? If not why are we even talking about it. Deal is both companies are screwing us over, thats for sure and you are looking for a neeedle in a barn.
I don't have expectations Zeara, i learned that a long time ago, i accept things as they come on this matter cause there is jack you can do about it.
Threads like these man. As if we can even pretend people aren't going to buy reference models. Not like the GTX 1080 was a barren wasteland of supply, and still is honestly.
Yep, that is it.
@Thorianrage I wasn't referring to modding ....
Unfortunately those who fell for the "o wait we have a driver fix" for the 6 pin reference models will be replacing them soon.
never buy reference..those who do are the guinea pigs for testing as with the RX 480 and GTX 1080 issues. Wait for AIBs

Are people thinking im modding the power delivery? Well undervolting the card and running it through firestrike nets 133 watts on the powerdraw apparently but people buy reference models because they are easier to mod and get third party components for.
Custom cards are horrible for this, think waterblocks as an example, theres far more support for the reference boards then custom and they tend to be cheaper as well.
