The price is fine if you are buying reference. But I have a feeling most people won't be happy with a $300+ AIB 480. Because then, what extra value or performance does it offer? If it does do a lot better then maybe it's worth it. If I have to pay over $300 with tax for an AIB I might as well spend $99 more and get that $399 gigabyte 1070.Reading through that thread now. It seems the biggest complaints is the price. Which is odd considering the biggest praise for the RX 480 is price.
It seems some where along the way, the price is getting skewed out of line. I wouldn't be surprised if it goes for more. More so if it starts to nip at GTX 980/Fury Nano.
We'll have $250-300+ custom RX 480's versus whatever NV does for GTX 1060. Gonna be some fun times for the buyers in that bracket.
But for now I'm hoping $270 is what the AIB models come in at. Also if 8gb models don't provide any more power then I'd probably be better off with a 4gb AIB.
