Hey guys I have a deal for an RX 480. With AMD drivers getting better and better this card will definitely be a great performer especially at this price point.

There is also a $15 rebate but I am unsure how that works, if it does work then total comes down to $211.30 USD (~ $283.22 AUD).

Another GPU I have seen on special and it appears to the best performing card at $250 AUD especially with the rollout of the new AMD RELIVE drivers.

    I fear that by the time AMD drivers are up to Nvidia standards, I will need to upgrade from a 480.

      The new RELIVE drivers are looking pretty neat with performance gains across games.

      • HomeAlone on 09/12/2016 - 17:34

        Any idea if the 4K black screen issues are finally fixed with the new driver?

        • Neis on 09/12/2016 - 20:28

          No clue to be honest

      Agreed AMD install manager is a joke. No way to get around it.

      • LiMaaa on 14/12/2016 - 14:38

        I think we have some AMD groupies here. The downvotes are real ;)

    Here's the PDF containing the terms and conditions for the rebate form

    The rebate is paid back not by $ to your account but via a prepaid Mastercard worth $15.

    In short, there's so much hassle you might as well not go through with it.

    • Neis on 09/12/2016 - 01:59

      Yeah nah thanks for the info defs not worth the rebate tbh.

    All 480 cards get a code for Civilisation 6, which is a solid bonus.

    • LeifSmart on 09/12/2016 - 06:42

      really? How does that work? I got a 480 recently from amazon and didn't see anything about a civ6 code

        Buried somewhere in their shocking website.

      • jazoom on 09/12/2016 - 08:39

        I did too. I just emailed Amazon and they gave me a code. Then there's a bunch of mucking around on AMD's super crappy website. Then I got the Steam code.

        • papalaz on 10/12/2016 - 12:12

          Hi Jazoom,
          I just emailed Amazon and they were not helpful and did not know what was going on.
          They said I should ask AMD, and they said I should ask Amazon.
          Can you tell me what you did specifically to get them to help?

        • jazoom on 10/12/2016 - 15:35

          @papalaz: Sounds like you got a dud support person at Amazon. It is true that the retailer is supposed to provide you with the code. Here is the email I got back after asking for it:

          Hello Jazoom,

        • papalaz on 10/12/2016 - 18:08

          @jazoom: Yeah I must've got a dud support person.
          Thanks mate :)
          That amazon link of the T&Cs will come in handy.
          I'll just send them another carefully worded message soon.

        • jazoom on 10/12/2016 - 18:30

          @papalaz: No probs.

        • papalaz on 28/12/2016 - 17:06

          @jazoom: Did you do anything special in order to get them to help you out? Maybe you worded you email in a special kind of way?…
          I've contacted them many many times already, they are quite useless. Nobody knows what's going on, I get told different things every time.
          I've had my issue escalated to the Promotions team twice and they have not bothered replying, days later… maybe they're busy enjoying their christmas.

        • jazoom on 28/12/2016 - 22:00

          @papalaz: I just sent them an email asking for it. There was nothing more to it. I was lucky to get an email back from someone who knew what I was on about. Maybe ask for Nadeem M?

          Usually it's me that gets mucked around by disorganised companies. It feels strange being on the other side.

        • papalaz on 31/12/2016 - 01:32

          @jazoom: After being told a bunch of different things, I'm about to give up. The last thing I've been told is that the offer is for USA customers only.
          I can't find this little titbit stipulated anywhere of course.
          I'm sure they're freaking making it up because everyone I've spoken to doesn't know how to finding the solution for me.

        • jazoom on 31/12/2016 - 08:51

          @papalaz: That is so frustrating. Maybe there's a way to complain to AMD to tell them that Amazon is being ridiculous?

    These are now Faster then gtx 1060 6gb in dx11 and dx12.. So they are a better buy in that regard.. Drivers are better then nvidias also.

    Man its crazy how over time amd cards start to pull ahead.. The driver team must work really slow and getting everything they can from the new cards

    • Caped Baldy on 09/12/2016 - 07:08

      damn really? i just got a 1060…
      Anyway for those interested it's possible to get the 8gb for around $335 from HN. Requires amex though.

  • mooncake111 on 09/12/2016 - 08:39

    is this better than the shopping express 1060 from yesterday??

    • ChickenAdobo on 09/12/2016 - 13:32

      Yep. Latest driver from AMD improve the radeon 480 and 470. I'm still rocking a Radeon 290. This will be a sidegrade at best for me. Waiting for Vega

  • parkies on 09/12/2016 - 13:23

    No warranty at all if you buy these?

    • Neis on 09/12/2016 - 20:29

      I believe no, probably have to look into the company's own international warranties see what they say
