To compare, an RX 480 delivers roughly 5.8 TFLOPS in single precision performance, a reference RX 470 offers 4.9 TFLOPS. The card has a TDP (peak power consumption) ranked at 120 Watts. The model tested is dual-slot based, 24 cm in length.
The 14nm FinFET+ process based Radeon RX 470 will perform at 4.9 TFLOPS. With its 120W TDP it'll have 32 CUs x 64 shader processors per CU (= 2048 shader processors). You are going to spot a single 8-pin power connector that feeds the six phase design.
Basically it delivers 150 Watts and then another 75 Watts is fed though the PCI-Express slot (depending on how the phase distribution is configured). In theory this means enough headroom for tweaking.
As stated, monitor display outputs include one DVI, two DisplayPort 1.4 connectors and two HDMI 2.0b. That's plenty and quite lovely to see... Overall the card design is terrific in terms of aesthetics. Nice dark looks.
The card measures 27cm in length. On top you'll see the MSI / dragon logo, that one is RGB configurable. Of course, you can also turn them off as well. That RGB coloring of your personal preference does work wonders in a color toned PC. The LED system can be controlled individually by choosing any of the animation effects available in the MSI Gaming App, ranging from responding to your game sounds or music to steady light, breathing and flashing.
