Should i wait for the rx 480 or buy a r9 380 now?

Solution
Straight up, WAIT. The rx480 is supposed to out-perform the r9 380, why jump the gun, spend that money, regret it, and just sit there complaining about how you should've waited. For $200 the rx480 is supposed to be VR ready meaning that its almost on par with the GTX1070 for JUST $200. I honestly can't wait for it and I'm hoping you wait with me pal.

no, performance wise they claim it will fall between a gtx 970 - gtx 980

a 1070 is a lot faster, faster than a titan-x



they are banking on the low price, not the performance
