PowerColor Radeon RX 480 RED DEVIL review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 07/29/2016 08:31 AM [ 85 comment(s) ]

Join us as we review the PowerColor Radeon RX 480 RED DEVIL, we test the model fitted with 8GB graphics memory. This dark spawn from PowerColor is a mainstream graphics card series that will allow you to play your games in both the Full HD 1080P range as well as gaming in WQHD (2560x1440) range. And all that at a rather reasonable price of 269 USD.

Like 2 sentences before you stated that it costs 269 USD. I guess that quoted sentence is from the reference card review ?


No that price is correct as the MSR sales price is:

Suggested retail price of 269USD with availability on the 29th

I expected a much higher overclock but still a great card I would take this over 1060
Great review as always

AIB 1060s are faster, cooler, more efficient and have more overclocking headroom at the same or even lower prices. I don't think this card is a wise choice at this price.


But a 1060 doesn't feel as futureproof due to the non-implementation of asynchronous compute.

So this card require more watts then GTX 1070 ,however, it is 50-60% slower.


Yes, Nvidia has fantastic efficiency currently, but at least here in Finland it costs at least twice as much too.

/ I'm getting a 4GB card to cut down the price further. Vega is according to AMD's charts more efficient than Polaris so I may pick one of those up next year. 1060 and 480 won't be fast enough for 1440p in a short while.

you are wrong. Pascal supports full DX 12.1 features including asynchronous compute.
