It's an OK card, but since I already have a 1060, I'll wait for Vega.

Looks like a refresh done right! Performance is so close to the Fury and in some instances, surpassing it, it's insane! And... it even has decent headroom for overclocking!

what i dont get , how every reviewer managed 2250 on the vram , meanwhile here i am with a msi gaming x 480 8gb and wont go over 2140stable , and other users report this to , got to love those chery picked samples reviewers get
Tho on a side note , my rx480 can do 1450on gpu core(sadly fans go wild and make a lot of noisse to keep the gpu @ 72c)

Terrible power efficiency ... Eats 20-30% more than Rx480 for like 5% more performance ?
Not even trying to compare to GTX 1060/1070, must be like 60-70% difference in consumption.

It has nothing to do with cherry picked samples. By default you assume the memory used is the same as on RX480, that is a wrong assumption. You'll notice most boards RX 580 will do 2250 MHz. Wait until you see some customer reviews.

But my MSI RX480 Gaming X 8GB was reviewed here on guru3d , and in the review the memory reached 2250mhz , while i can't and many users cant go over 2150 w/e artefactig, so what should i get from it? that not all vram on the same model is the same?
and that you just got lucky ?

meh, too expensive for just a, almost, 480 rehash.
I'd have probably rushed off to the nearest store/online order for my 2nd PC for a more reasonable ~200eu that would fit the lackluster performance. Wager these will actually retail closer to ~300eu

They are between $250-300 here in the states. They can keep them at that price.

Typo
Hilbert - in the overclocking the card section:
In the above chart you can see relative performance difference in between a reference RX 480 card, thne the AIB RX 580 card and then added the applied tweak and this our overclocked results plotted in percentage.

What a disappointing series. Such a marginal improvement over the RX400 series...

They are not disappointing in my book:
The 570 is as fast as the 480;
The 580 is faster than the 480;
Both are slightly cheaper;
You now have a more balanced line-up with 580, 570, 560 and 550.
I do agree Vega should have been here months ago.

So it uses more power than the 480? However the process change does seem to have given it roughly a 100MHz higher ceiling. Wonder how I compares to a updated 1060 6GB with the faster VRAM? Probably a good 5% faster on average.
