AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB review - Product Photos

Overall the card can ooze out roughly 5.8 TFLOPS in single precision performance (based on AMD claims / measurements). The card has a TDP (peak power consumption) ranked at 150 Watts. The model tested is dual-slot based, 24 cm in length.

The 14nm FinFET+ process based Radeon RX 480 will perform at 5.8 TFLOPS. With its 150 TDP it'll have 36 CUs x 64 shader processors per CU = 2304 Shader processors). As you can see, AMD changed the Radeon font a little. Also, the RX in Radeon RX 480 is a bit of a change in the naming. RX is the product series (GPU) and then the 4 is the revision and 80 is the model number.
 

 
You are going to spot a single 6-pin power connector that feeds the six phase design. Basically it delivers 75 Watts and then another 75 Watts is fed though the PCi-Express slot. In theory this means very little headroom for tweaking as the card already sits at a max TDP of 150 Watts. We'll surely check that out as well of course. We expect board partners to add more wide configurations by perhaps adding a second 6-pin connector or maybe simply replacing it with an 8-pin connector. Please note that the reference configurations for the Radeon RX 480 are 4GB of 7 Gbps GDDR5 memory and 8GB of 8 Gbps GDDR5 memory. The AMD-built boards that are shipping in volume will feature one of those two configurations. 


Monitor display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.4 connectors and one HDMI 2.0b. There are traces on the PCB for a DVI connector, AIB custom-design cards could (should) implement it.
 

 
Overall the card design is terrific in terms of aesthetics. Nice dark looks. We expect board partners who use the reference design to add a back-plate though.
