RX 480 with FX-8320E Eight-Core benchmarks at Ultra Quality settings

I just got a VisionTek AMD Radeon RX 480 8GB Video Card with ryzen 2400g gskill 2933 ram and a b450 legend and 650 power supply what do you guys think about this set up

i3 6100 rx480 or i5 6500 r9 380x
Which of them is the Better Combo For 900p Gaming?
Thnx

For 900p? Both are overkill!

As a gaming setup, the i3+480 will consistently beat the i5 and 380x by a huge margin in most games

RX 480 4GB or RX 470 8GB
I'm looking at the msi gaming X 480 and armor OC 470

It's a tough one. The RX 470 is close to the RX 480 performance wise and some games do benefit from high VRAM. For example, I'm playing Forza Motorsport 6: Apex at ultra settings and it really requires 8GB of VRAM for a stutter-free experience on that render setting. I always had problems with Forza Motorsport 6 as it really uses loads of VRAM when playing, my experience has been a lot better since moving to an 8GB graphics card in general.

However, most games will be fine with 4GB VRAM and in those games the RX 480 4GB will be easily outperforming the RX 470 8GB.

RX 480 same PCB as 580
I'm wondering if the reference PCB in the RX480 is the same as the one the 580?

Each manufacter probably makes small changes to the printed circuit board. Why do you want to know about the PCB? You can flash the bios of the rx480 to make it a 580.

RX 470 OC vs RX 480 stock vs r9 390 stock
looking to buy a new gpu. where i live, the 480 is around 110 usd more than the 470

The 480 is the best card and the best deal, just avoid Gigabyte this time around as they've been having problems with cooling the 480. I'd go for something from XFX or MSI. Unless you can get the 390 for under 0 from a trusted friend that hasn't beaten it to death for months in a mining rig then there's really no reason to buy a 390.

Rx 480 4gb vs rx 470 8gb
Hi.i wanted to buy one these 2 card.but im strugle.btw the price is same in my country..

The difference in performance between a 470 and a 480 of equal memory can be closed by overclocking the 470 by approximately 10%, which is more than doable on an air-cooled solution.

The biggest impacts RAM has on card performance is for handling high-res textures and AA. More available video RAM means your card can handle higher-memory textures, and use better AA options. For any game you can buy today, a 4GB card is more than enough, but once 1440p and 4k resolutions become more prevalant, you're gonna want those extra 4GB.

For your comparison, I would recommend the 470. The 480 is only a better card if both price and RAM are equal, otherwise the biggest thing the 480 gives you is more overclocking room. Personally, I would only consider a 480 if I had a water-cooling solution to implement on it so I could overclock the piss out of it.

RX 480 / I5 6400 or RX 470 / I5 6500
What is a better option?
I5 6400 with AMD RX 480 or I5 6500 and AMD RX 470

Whats your display resolution??.Do you prefer to play at ultra setting or high enough?.Also how many years are you planning for next upgrade?

RX 480 or R9 390X or GTX 970.
RX 480 or R9 390X or GTX 970. Now that the official benchmarks are out RX 480
which one i should get?

390x will perform the best, but I'd hold off for about a week to allow that market to settle.

Upgrading gtx 770 to rx480?
Would upgrading to an RX 480 from a GTX 770 4gb be a big upgrade? And/or worth it in your opinion?

I'm in your same shoes. It's supposedly going to have equal performance to a 980(according to AMD), which would be a sizable upgrade.
Like turkey said though - waiting is the best thing to do at this moment.

XFX RX 480 and XFX R9 280 Crossfire
Is it possible to put an RX 480 and R9 280 in Crossfire? I didn't think you could, but figured I'd ask.

No. They have different GPUs. CF requires the two cards have the same GPU.

r9 380 2gb worth the upgrade to a RX 480 8gb?
Hey lads I have an Asus strix r9 380 2gb, and wondering if it would be worth the upgrade to a rx 480 8gb?

If nothing at least because of VRAM but I would wait until someone comes out with non reference models with better cooling.

gtx 960 vs r9 380 vs rx 480
Which card should i buy for 720p gaming..r9 380 or gtx 960 or rx 480...i will be pairing it with core i5 6600?

It might be overkill at the moment but I presume you don't want to only play current games, the point is that the RX 480 will future proof you better. You may buy a 1080p monitor, future games will require better GPU's. If you got the 960 you'd find yourself replacing it sooner so if you can afford the RX 480 that is the best option. If you can't really afford it at the moment then I would suggest you wait and get the RX 470, it should beat both the previous gen cards and save you a bit of money over the RX480.

rx 480 VS gtx 970
some reviews i see rx 480 is better and in some other i see gtx 970 is better

so what do u say? thanks:)

Ashes and Hitman are both AMD-optimised games, so they have an immediate advantage. If you look at the broader picture, an RX 480 doesn't come close to a GTX 1070.

AMD have done well with the RX 480, but I felt they could have done more. Once the GTX 1060 launches, supposedly next month, AMD will have a tough fight on their hands.

i5-4690K + gtx 950 OR I3 6100 + RX 480
Which combo would be better for 1080p gaming? Also, what fps would I expect from both builds.

Thank you.

The i3 + 480 would be WAY better and it wouldn't even be close. I recommend option number 3 though which would be an i5 6500 + RX470.

Crossfire RX 470 & 480 worth it?
Would it be worth it to get a 480 or higher to crossfire with my 470 or would it just bottleneck the higher end card?

In most cases it would limit the faster card to the capabilities of the lesser card. However, if you used the RX480 / RX580 as the primary and disabled crossfire on titles that don't support it, you would then have that level of performance.

Really though it is best to get a single faster GPU. Sell your RX470 while the value is still higher than normal, and pick up the fastest card you can afford. (Also buying an RX480 or RX580 is practically impossible for reasonable sums right now)

R9 390x or gtx 1060 or rx 480
Which one should I buy? Thank you

390x is about 120$ more expensive than gtx 1060

Rx 480 is the cheapest one around

There are about 5 games in the world that run DX12 and/or Vulkan. There are hundreds, if not thousands of games that run DX11 and older, or Open GL.

Newegg is having a "sales event" right now, and I'm seeing a lot of GTX1060's right around the 0-0 mark. Much better than the 0 GTX1060's I was seeing two weeks ago. The cheapest 390x is still around 0, and the RX480's are right around the 0-260 range as well.

My vote goes to a GTX1060 if you're going to buy one in the next 3-4 days.

GTX 970 or RX 480?
The gigabyte GTX 970 went on sale for 0 here in Canada. Is that a steal or should I wait for the RX 480 to get in stock?

I haven't seen one. I see 12 RX 480s and everyone of them has the reference design. Take a peek, every one of them has the exact same cooler, only thing that differentiates the cards is the sticker on the fan.

here's what some of the new cards look like ,, as to when, who knows

R9 390 or Rx 480
Simply put, Im wondering which card is better, an R9 390 or an Rx 480 because I own both. Also, would you be able to crossfire these cards?

R9 290x vs r9 380x vs rx 480
Sapphire tri-x R9 290x 4 gb 217$

Xfx R9 380x 4 gb 235$

Xfx rx 480 8 gb 300$

I have i7 4790 non k
And 650 watt corsair psu

RX 480 reference has a slight voltage problem on released and currently already rectified with the latest driver. It can no longer be called a problem.

Yes, 290X was and still quite a heater. But AIB's solution proves sufficient to handle it. Just don't get reference design of it, and you'll be fine.

Power draw is another talk entirely.

rx 480 or 470 for gaming
i want to play current games at ultra and maybe next gen games too i currently have a 768p monitor but will get a 1080p (maybe) next year

At 1080p, in US, the best choice is the GTX 1060 3GB @ 5
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137034

Or the Rx 480 4GB @ 0

Using MSI Gaming X prices for all proces and performance so as to stay apples and apples

The 8GB 480 is 5 and the 6GB 1060 was 5 also but is sold out on newegg

Which you choose, depends on what games you play.... but keep in mind the following:

Based upon results of tehpowerups game test suite ....using the GTX 1060 as the baseline

a) The MSI RX 480 8GB is 7% slower, on average, than the 1060 reference @ 1080p ... it overclocks 8.6% beyond that for an overall 1% advantage over the 1060
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/RX_480_Gaming_X/23.html

b) The MSI 1060 6GB is 3% faster, on average, than the 1060 reference @ 1080p ... it overclocks 15.1% beyond that for an overall 19% advantage over the 1060
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_1060_OC/23.html

c) The 1060 3 GB runs about 6% slower, on average, than the 1060 reference @ 1080p ... it overclocks 14.5% beyond that for an overall 8% advantage over the reference 1060
\https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_1060_Gaming_X_3_GB/29.html

So ranking the 3, based upon the overall performance in the entire test suite:

MSI 480 Gaming X 8GB = 101% of the reference 1060 for 5
MSI 1060 Gaming X 3GB = 108% of the reference 1060 for 5
MSI 1060 Gaming X 6GB = 119% of the reference 1060 for ? (whatever it is when back in stock (last saw @ 5)

I have not seen comparative test results for the 4GB 480 on TPU.... but a) early Sapphire cards could be flashed from 4 to 8GN (supposedly reviewer samples only but few escaped in the wild) and b) on the 10690, cutting the RAM in half for the 1060 cost 7% in performance at 1080p. If we assume the same 7% hit on the 480 from 8 to 4GB, that was seen halving the 1060s, that **might** make put the MSI 480 Gaming X 4GB = 94% (0) of the reference 1060 for 5 but that's a logical guess.

As i said above, best to start here and look at what games you play and how each card under consideration does against each other:

Rx 470 8gb or Rx 480 4gb?
Hi was wondering which graphics card would be better, a Asus ROG Strix 8gb Rx 470 or MSI Rx 480 4gb. The prices after rebate both come out to 0.

That's not entirely true. The 4GB RX 480s have slower-clocked memory than the 8GB RX 480s, and as a result tend to have around 5% lower performance. The 4GB RX 480 should still outperform an RX 470 though, so yes, between those cards, the 480 should be better from a performance standpoint.

There are of course other things to keep in mind though, like whether one has a quieter cooler, though if you're just looking for the best performance for the money, that might be less important.
