The AMD Radeon RX 480, the Virtual Reality-ready graphics card, has been receiving praises from critics and fans alike, and users can imagine the AMD Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 getting some love as well.
The video cards are now on the market and are offered to gamers who aren't crazy for 1440p resolution gaming, but still want their game to look and perform stellar.
The AMD Radeon RX 470 will cater to the gamer of the 1080p and 60 frames per second experience. It obviously is not on par with its bigger brother, but the hardware certainly packs a punch, according to TechFrag.
Considering the settings it was designed to support, the AMD Radeon RX 470 will be off the charts. Based on the 14nm FinFET Polaris 10 Pro architecture, the card clocks 5 TFLOPs with a memory bus width of 256-bit and 224 GB/s bandwidth.
In a benchmark test done by TechFrag, it was proven that the graphics card's power and performance is comparable to that of the RX 390.
On the other hand, the AMD Radeon RX 460 is billed to perform at its best when used on eSports and multiplayer online battle arena or MOBA titles. It is the entry-level model out of the three, but is still amazing for the price.
Although it has the same 14nm FinFET architecture, the Radeon RX 460 is lower-specced than its big brothers in the sense that it is based on Polaris 11.
This basically means that it will render half the power its big brothers have. It boasts 2 TFLOPs paired with a 128-bit memory bus width and 112 GB/s bandwidth.
The AMD Radeon RX 470 comes in two different GDDR5 configurations— 4 GB at $149 and 8GB at $179. The AMD Radeon RX 460 comes with a $99 2GB edition and a 4GB one priced at $119 only.
Both graphics cards should be up for grabs now.
