AMD Radeon RX 480 versus Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 - pricing and performance comparison

[SLicK]

Agreed

You raise some valid points regarding stock and AIB partner cards, but as it stands currently, the RX 480 is not available readily or cheaply - at least until AIB cards arrive.

Comparing the pricing of Founders Edition cards with Radeon reference cards exclusively would have to be the subject of more specific article, and may be skewed towards AMD due to their lack of a FE premium.

The point of this article's pricing was simply to compare the pricing of the cheapest, currently available graphics cards, regardless of partner brand

Fair enough.

I just got some pricing of one of the local distributors on a Asus GTX 1060 Turbo.

Local retailer pricing should be around the R5399 price mark, which is not bad.

That's an interesting cooler design, looks quite cool. Stock and pricing of the GeForce GTX 1060 seems quite good at the moment.
