“The AMD RX 480 is a pro-consumer move towards affordable yet powerful GPUs which brings VR to the masses. It’s able to output superb frame-rates even when using a 1440p monito
Crossfire is NOT supported on all games
Current CF performance is wonky
Two cards = Lots of HEAT!
Slightly noisy under load
Not that much faster than a GTX 970
Build quality show the card's budget roots
Mediocre cooling system on the reference card
Throttling issues can occur unless fan levels and temperature targets are increased
the Radeon RX 480 is an awfully attractive card that screams quality—not something you'd expect to find in the $300+ price range. It's a big change from AMD's previous R200 series. But hardware is only half of the equation.Next page: The Radeon RX 480's...

The ASUS Strix AMD Radeon RX 480 costs about Rs. 30,000 because in part of the overclocks and lighting additions which look awesome. The 480 price ranges between Rs. 27,000 to 30,000. In comparison the 6GB variant of the 1060 starts at Rs. 23,000 and goes...
AMD's latest flagship is the Radeon RX 480. It is part of their new Polaris line-up of GPUs and AMD hopes that these cards will completely revolutionise the graphics card industry.How do they plan to do that? With disruptive pricing, they say.AMD'...
Abstract: AMD had the world on its heels when they revealed the RX 480, a card aimed to bring high-end performance at a low cost. Priced at USD 200, it may just be the cheapest VR ready card in the market, with the best performance/dollar spent. Take a look at the...
Excellent performer, Vulkan API performs really well, CrossFireX capability
Indian pricing is excessive
When it comes to 4K, the RX 480 needs a helping hand from another RX 480 and here's where the AMD card has an advantage over NVIDIAPROSExcellent performerVulkan API performs really wellCrossFireX capabilityCONSIndian pricing is excessiveAMD RX 480: Detail...
Excellent performance at 1920x1080 and 2560x1440, Driver updates might unlock even more performance
Reference cooler runs a bit hot and loud, Pricing is not competitive
AMD cites Steam's hardware survey data which says that 95 percent of single-monitor gamers have 1080p or lower-resolution monitors, and 84 percent of GPU sales happen in the range of $100 to $300. That's pretty huge for a sweet spot, and the company targe...
If you're out to buy a card that'll be ready for the future and don't have much to spend too much, AMD's RX 480 is hands down the best choice other than aiming for a second-hand card.(previously published in issue August 2016)...
New Polaris GPU is extremely power efficient, Amazing performance at 1,440p resolutions, A card that is real value for money
Card doesn't overclock as we would like it to, Has high temperature spikes despite newly designed 14nm FinFET GPU, WattMan OC tool still needs a bit of tweaking
For its part, the Radeon RX 480 is a step in the right direction for AMD and its RTG. The company was long overdue for a card that wasn't just another rehashed GPU die from another era, and Polaris was, at the heart of it all, that long awaited breath of...

Affordable price point, Great performance on 1080p and 1440p gaming, Significant performance gains on games that run Vulkan API
Unable to perform well in 4K gaming conditions, Temperature climbs to worrying levels even at 1080p gaming, Issues with overclocking may lead to loss of performance, Power draw is still an issue,
Overall, the RX 480 manages to achieve what it sets out to do: be a decently powerful card without having a bank breaking price tag. That said, the RX 480 itself is not a high-end card. Indeed, if your current graphics card is the GTX 970 and above, or a...
The AMD Athlon X4 880K Processor retails at RM 400, an excellent proposition at that price point. For example it performs like the Intel Core i3 that costs about 15% more, and it's outperforms its A10 siblings that costs 50% – 70% more.This makes the X4 8...
