Review: MSI Radeon RX 480 GAMING X

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 08/01/2016 01:46 PM | source: | 54 comment(s)

Join us as we review the MSI Radeon RX 480 GAMING X, we test the model fitted with 8GB graphics memory (there is a 4GB model as well). This TwinFrozr VI cooled mainstream graphics card series 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 roughly 269 USD.

Still a little disappointed in the performance of the RX 480 overclocked. At least this one has the thermals under control.

MSI really seems to have done well with the sound levels (same with 1070), sadly I don't see these cards anywhere in Finland.

Very sad that it has less OC, and less efficient.

That is why never over hype product.

AMD didn't over hype this product as much as the Fiji at least. The AMD users however were predicting 1070 performance or more with 1600Mhz OC on air.

It's getting to the point the overly faithful AMD base are hurting the brand.

Nice review,thanks. :)
And yeah you need to test in Vulkan without AA or TSSAA 8x for Async Compute.Or you can do without AA in every DX 12 games,for testing purpose only.

A really good implementation of RX 480 from MSI.
The drivers will be better and better with newer games,and the performance will be much higher.

Prediction for 1600 MHz on air?Who says that,some users or click-bite sites?
Official I dont see coming from Amd.
