Most of us don't complain about the price-performance ratio of the card. I'd say this is a nice product overall. The point is, some of us see the bigger picture already, which doesnt look good for AMD when power consumption is considered. Think for a second, how much power does an AMD card require to perform on par with a GTX 1070/1080? If their mainstream/mid-budget card consumes 160 watts+ and performs like a GTX 970, how much power will the high end AMD cards require? I'm really worried for AMD right now, imagining how good would a GTX 1060 be when perf/watt is considered.I have to say the amount t of people that thought AMD's $200 card was going compete against nvidia's $400 is amazing, get real. What amd did do was bring last gens $350-400 cards performance down to $200. They delivered there first card to clock over 1200mhz without massive cooling, and beat the performance of there last gen 275 watt card with a 150 watt card. Will be interesting to see what the board partners can cook up with better power delivery and cooling see if that 1.5ghz is within reach,only 150mhz off on reference with the limited power delivery they designed into it.
