Sorry for my ignorance, but this is the Nvidia equivalent of what?
I am currently using a GTX 750 Ti, how much is this better (say in %)?
Also power consumption is crucial as I don't want to upgrade my PSU. Thanks.
Really good reviews here: http://bfy.tw/80pr

GTX 1060 would be the closest from nvidia's latest gpus
the gpu hierarchy at toms hardware has always been a go-to for me:
That chart has to be incorrect. The RX 480 > GTX 1060 in DX12 games. This will be more apparent going forward…
from what i understand its going off the average performance of a collection of games and as you know, theres only a small number of dx12/vulkan games out.
the hierarchy may change over time but for now the 1060 is the "winner":
http://i.imgur.com/zT3XB7H.jpglooking at this chart - the advantage the 1060 has over the 480 in dx11 games outweighs the dx12 games on the 480.
You'll be ok with a 450w PSU. These new cards use a lot less power.
Not too shabby… am after a RX 480 but 4GB not 8GB :(
4GB is barely enough for 1920x1080 now.
As someone who games in 1080p with a 3GB gfx card comfortably now i totally disagree with that. Reviews everywhere demonstrate there is few (as in 2-5) fps difference between the 4GB and 8GB even with most of the latest games at HD res.
GTA V, a game from 2013, at 1920x1080 using maxiumum settings uses 3.9 GB.
As I said, barely enough.
The FPS difference isn't the main issue here IMO, it's the worse frame timings as a result of the lack of ram which manifests as stuttering. But it's only a problem in few games where you're blindly turning up the settings to max (if you want to blindly max out everything i think you should be looking at the 1070/1080 anyway).
Here's a nice test of the ram hungry games, but you're going to need google translate

Isn't this only about $30 more than a 4GB Reference Card?
The difference is usually $50 USD between the 2 so enough for it to matter in terms of getting little for the extra $. Here the price differece seems to fluctuate depending on the sellers and deals.
The 8GB also has faster ram (2GHz on the 8GB vs 1.75GHz on the 4GB).
See this for comparison.

Don't forget cashrewards for a couple more dollars off
Do you happen to know what courier they use for their standard delivery?
Fastway, which is quite bad…
