???
By nearly every account, the 480 was on par with or slightly behind the 1060 6GB at launch, and now the 480/580 is on par with or slightly faster than the 1060.
- Nursie 9y agoMid/low market competitive sure, they had a 1060 competitor at a similar price point and performance level. But the 480 and 580 are where the range tops out, they couldn't touch 1070+ performance in that generation at all. Shortly afterwards the prices started to rocket.
- theandrewbailey 9y agoNVidia's product line extends beyond 1060. 1070 or 1080, anyone? Radeon can't touch those right now.
