The editors didn't like
The reference cooler is fine for stock clocks but falls way short for overclocking unless the fan speed is cranked up
Drivers are somewhat immature and they are expected to improve as is typical of new architecture
We cannot comment on the $199 4GB vers
Not as powerful as Nvidia's newest cards
Too large for some cases
Power In Line With 2-Year Old Maxwell GPUs
Still not as power efficient as GeForce cards
Stability and performance issues with slick new overclocking software
Whilst the RX 480 may not be appealing to hardcore PC gamers and enthusiasts, gamers who look to play games on 1080p and 1440p with playable framerates will find this graphics card rather appealing. Adding to that is the fact that this graphics card only...
The AMD RX 480 retails at RM 1,299 and it's certainly a sweet card. You might come across some shops selling it at RM 1,249. The card is great, it performs well, runs silent and draws little power and it's something no card at that price point has ever ac...
One year and 4 months have already passed since AMD released the Radeon RX 480. Our testing results and those from other reputable online publications have already shown its impressive value for playing games at 1080p using a monitor with variable refresh...
Good pricetoperformance ratio, Good voltage control via software (Wattman), Improved power efficiency vs. oldgen, 8GB VRAM option
Runs hot, Reduced clock speed due to high thermals, No zero fan mode during idle, No DVI output
Let's break it down for the AMD RADEON RX 480 8GB graphics card:Performance. Performance-wise, the RX 480 is positioned well for most 1080p games with a most eSports titles going to run fine up to 1440p but for the bulk of the games out right now, the RX...
Now, focusing on the benchmarks we've done for this review, both the GeForce GTX 1060 and Radeon RX 480 delivered an admirable performance at 1080p. We were able to use very high image quality settings and still managed to have a pleasant gaming experienc...
150W TDP, Competent 1440p performance, Perfect for 1080p gaming
Slightly more expensive here in the Philippines, Gets a bit hot, No Dual-Link DVI ports
Looking at the benchmarks, it is unfortunate that the RX 480 was tested against stronger cards. If you think about it, however, those cards are more expensive than the RX 480. In synthetic benchmarks such as FutureMark 3DMark, the RX 480 performed relativ...
Delivers great bang for your buck, Performance is impressive for its price, Fairly low power consumption
Lacks new features that are readily perceived by end users, Not much overclocking headroom, Same old reference design
The Radeon RX 480 doesn't intend to play in the high-end market.After getting a taste of what the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 and 1080 offer, some might say that the Radeon RX 480 is considerably less exciting. We wouldn't even fault you for saying that. Yes...
Great 1080p performance, Needs only one 6pin power connector, VRReady, Affordable price
Not meant for extreme resolutions, No backplate
From the benchmark scores that we have seen above, the AMD Radeon RX 480 clearly beats the SAPPHIRE Nitro Radeon 380x to the punch, and is more or less on par with the ZOTAC GTX 970 while having an efficient power draw of just 150w. To think that the Pola...
