I don't get how you guys only have 57k subs.
Every other review: "Here's some graphs. Card run quiet, card run good."
GN: (insert intense amount of information here)
it's too complicated for most people
Yeah.All of the people i showed this channel to are still having a hard time about delta C even tho i showed the video of our Tech Jesus here explaining what it is.
A lot of people care more about the appearance of the card than about performance analysis because they want to match the colours with their sleeved cables, LEDs and water loops. To each his own I guess.
Yep, love the fact he mentions the drivers being used and why the newer one wasnt used, other "reviewers" just throw in some old results and compare it with a "new" card and they call it a day, then they get upset when people start to call them biased and such...
It's crazy the depth that this channel goes into, It's one of the only channels that can appeal to the average user while giving more than enough information for the advanced overclocker. Also something needs to be said about the no bs approach, it is all facts in your face with no bias, I love it.
Added some annotations. The specifications table should read 1303MHz for the MSI Gaming X and 1120-1266MHz for the Reference card. Obviously switched those up. Thanks for letting us know! Lots of charts... so... many... charts.
hey man, can you do a video on the benefits of the number of cores and its relation to performance?
It seems like Nvidia has nailed the correct amount of cores in the 1060 but it seems like AMD went with to many cores and a lower clock rate comparatively. It seems like only a few games support this many cores but that would also mean when games adapt directx 12 and vulkan in the future these RX 480s will get more of a performance gain then the 1060 because they use all their cores fully now.
That might be something to test/look into and ultimately explain in a video. Seems very important, like understanding that its not about the CPU's clock speed but the IPC and the clock combined. Since you get IPC improvements with architecture upgrades.
150% more cat please. thanks.
steve.. msi gaming x 1060 or gaming x 480? temps and max oc scaling?
Thx man for the fact,I went mad with msi when I red that :D
support the MSI rx 480 crossfire ? pls help
Good review.. I chose rx480 over 1060.. because of FreeSync support and Crossfire support (if I decide to pick another one down the line). 1060 G-sync monitors are too expensive.
i totally agree
There is a AOC freesync monitor for $209 and the same exact version with gsync is $340 smh... I have a 1070 but I'd much prefer to buy a 1440p60 ips monitor for the price of a 1080p gsync monitor
+Tyler yeah i preordered my rx 480 yesterday and today it should be shipped, have a freesync that why
Same here. I mostly play Overwatch, which does get better FPS on the 1060, but I think Freesync will be more than worth it, and I think 100FPS on epic will be plenty for me coming from low settings 75% resolution scaling 50-60fps
do you guys think that two msi rx 480s can fit in the asus z170-p motherbord, sorry if i sound nooby but this will be my first pc so plz help
So Steve actually lives under the desk...
I see someone made it to the end!
Gamers Nexus First in last out ;D
i knew it.
I would still pick the 480 because I need a monitor upgrade and freesync is cheaper than G-sync, and also, the 1060 doesn't have a multi-gpu option.
Gsync is great though.
+Barry Cooper same thing
Barry Cooper the difference isn't worth $200. You could add a 2nd 480 for that price.
+Tuchulu mhm Hopoff
so is freesync, and its much cheaper.
btw, nvidia could enable freesync in their drivers tomorrow if they wanted to from the 900 series onward. but they hate their customers and the PC gaming market in generally and so they don't.
So the MSI RX 480 will be able to run 1080p 60 fps and above for next gen games?
Yep can even play some games 1440p 60 fps, you could also crossfire later since its such a cheap card.
You guys have come a long way makes me shed a tear
Why does BlackOps3 get called AMD biased, but GTAV which favors Nvidia more than most titles (nearly as bad as Pcars) is treated as the norm? I mean, a 970 is nowhere near a FuryX in most games or on paper, and yet it gets awfully close in GTAV, and in some reviews even beats it..
Other than that another fantastic vid from you guys, you're really up there with the best of them afaic. As far as UA-cam goes you guys are easily one of the best, you put most of the big channels to shame. Hope you get a load more subs in the near future.
Can you shut off the leds on msi card software or manual? i got a closed case.

Gamer-Nexus Should I Do the Update AMD Catalyst Software Suite /CURRENT-VERSION\ 15.201.1161-150821a-18472..... /AVAILABLE VERSION\ 16.30.2311-160718a >> Update Im scard to hit update! I got windows 10< Im scard to update! -- Im sry for spamming you put this in the normal but It keep comeing up and I just dont want to -SCREW- up my PC :( since your good with tech I wanted to ask ya
Please start to include Ultrawides. I really want to know if the RX480 or the GTX 1060 would be better with my 2560x1080 Freesync monitor (both MSI GAMING X).
Ok thanks :)
freesync you need amd do you not?
Why do the games that work well on amd cards, have really good optimization. Like black ops and hitman, which reach pretty high fps on lower end hardware but in general work better on amd also. This isn't a conspiracy theory just an observation.
AMD cards are generally more powerful at the purely hardware level, if you can fully utilize that power then you can get very good results.
well both Xbox one and Playstation 4 use amd products. so it's going to be naturally geared for amd products.
-T-X-M- Lay the blame at the feet of the developers who are lazy and use Gameworks. Nvidia isn't forcing them; if we want this to change, we as consumers need to complain to the devs who use it.
+Marcus Antonius eh. well if Nvidia and Intel made good soc this wouldn't be a problem, but Red ring of death sealed the deal for nvidia and Intel. plus it's was cheaper for Sony and Microsoft to go with AMD and get custom x86 soc
+Marcus Antonius sadly its true :(
Hey GN, one piece of advice if I may. When you reference other videos you've put out, I would recommend linking them in the description and/or annotations (I view you primarily on mobile, so I don't see annotations) rather than simply saying "search the channel." Eliminates possible confusion over finding the right video and improves your viewers' experience.
Aha. Yeah, UA-cam's annotations are in need of a facelift. We try to use "cards" to link related stuff, but don't always hit it. Will try to do this more diligently in the future.
Can you compare RX 480 from Sapphire, MSI, ASUS and PowerColour? I'd like to know which card is best out of these.
Pretty sure it would be Msi>Powercolor>Asus>Sapphire(the sapphire sucks)
+Zer0Xly “ALLMASTERPLANK” 2in1
Why? I've always been under the impression that Sapphire makes the best AMD GPUs.
Scisca they did. But the sapphire 480 sucks
+Zer0Xly “ALLMASTERPLANK” 2in1
Apart from the fact that it looks meh? I'd like to see a comparison of PCBs, components used and cooling
Scisca The Sapphire is 42 dba loud in the oc bios mode and 37,8 dba in the silent bios mode. For comparison the Powercolor one is only 37,6 dba loud and in silent bios mode 35,2 dba loud
Minor nitpick: the reference card MSRP is $239, not $249. This just means the MSI card costs $25 more than the reference card, not $15.
The only in-stock ones that I found at time of filming were $250, but that should change as stock refills everywhere.
I do not understand why people think every aftermarket cards needs to be 239.99
They all say that the msrp "Starts at 239.99" and not "All of them are 239.99".
Would you expect a hybrid rx480 to cost 239.99 as well if it gets released?
+Pastechi I didn't say that was my expectation. I just hope that the extra money for an AIB card delivers on a price to performance basis. This ratio can only be calculated when accurate price and performance data are used.
I think it's reasonable to spend ten percent extra in order to get ten percent extra performance. I don't think it's reasonable to spend ten percent extra for three percent extra performance.
This particular card seems to represent a decent value proposition compared to the reference card because it delivers extra performance, better thermals, reduced noise, and no PCIe power draw concerns.
it must be noted that several of these advantages come by default, because the reference design is so poor.
Wayne Manion I agree with you BUT...let me take an example.
The GTX 1080's.
MSRP starts at 599.99
We got the ASUS Turbo and the MSI Aero going for 609.99. 10dollars more than the msrp pricerange is still pretty good for me. But what you get is the same thing as the founders edition that costs 699.99
Then you will get the msi gaming that has a better (or WAY BETTER) cooling solutions and higher clocks and ofcourse they are not gonna sell it for 599.99 .
Same thing goes for the Radeon's
8gb msrp is 239.99 but the msi gaming has a way better cooling solution on it than the reference card.
Now if we are talking about not having much performance difference to get more FPS then well i say from 239.99 to 250 is still a good deal because the cooling solution that MSI have on the card is still worth it.
For a 1080 u can get an msi gaming X 1080 for the same price as the 1080 founders edition(699.99) but performs better than the founders and also has plenty of room for overclocking.
But you can also get an asus strix 1080 with similar performance than the msi gaming x 1080 but for only 649.99.
It all depends how much the aftermarket brands wants to sell their products.
If the MSI RX480 is really worth 250dollars then i say its a good deal because looking at it i think it should be worth more.
I was LITERALLY just typing MSI rx 480 gaming X on the search bar and found your video by accident, while having commented on ask gn about whether or not you're going to do a video for it jesus christ
ive been watchin the Reviews on this channel for some hours now, this is fantastic Information. Very pleasant to listen to
A honest and very good Review without any Red or Green Fanboyspeech. - I love your Channel and your Website - Stay Tuned Dude and Thank you.
I love how thorough your videos are.
I'm appreciating Gamers Nexus' videos more and more every day.
Awesome video man, I just picked up this card to pair with my i5 4690k OC'ed to 4.3. It is going to replace my old R9 270x, which still holds its weight for its age, but hey, it was time for an upgrade. One thing though, It's not THAT big of a deal, but the charts in Fullscreen on 1080p look kind of blurry, as is the image was compressed prior to being put into the video, just thought I'd let you know. Other than that, great video, I love the attention to detail and the in-depth analysis you guys do on your products!
I can't believe I never saw this channel before, awesome review!
On the specs comparison you swapped the RX480 ref core clock with the Gaming X, for the ref it says 1303MHz instead of 1120/1266. I'm on mobile, so if there is already an annotation for this on desktop I apologize. Just thought I should point this out assuming there is not an annotation already.
Got it. Obviously a mistake. Lots of tables and charts. Thanks!
Added annotation.
That ending! Seriously Steve do you sleep with the test bench?
They're taking their time with these RX480 partner cards
I'm sure they're trying to balance what tweaks they can do, meanwhile pushing the cost down so it' doesn't go as high as GTX 1060, which actually performs faster.
Sindhu Baskoro But I want one now! ;)
I'm very impressed by how well MSI has done with their new Twin Frozr VI cooling solution! It totally outperforms any other cooling solutions available to date! I also really like the look of it but the only problem is they only have the red-black color style which is totally fine to me but it might not match some other people's builds...
Recently got a Gaming X 1080. I can definitely attest to the awesomeness of the Gaming X cooler on these MSI cards. It's the best I've ever had on a graphics card.
This card is da fucking bomb! :D Super silent and great temps even better than my msi gtx 970 gaming 4G under idle and load. Card never reached 65 degree under full load after hours with fanspeed at 50 % and that with an oc like 1350/2200 stable without touching any other settings. Bought the Gaming X 8G for 250 euro at mediamarkt - amazing price for such a good card :)
Did not regret switching to team red.
No its the 8gb version, i would not recommend the 4gb version for future coming games, very high and ultra texture settings do love lots of gb's :). I would buy the MSI 480 Gaming X 8G since it is one of the cheapest ones atm and it also has the best cooling solution and lowest fan noise. I can't hear mine at 45 % fanspeed and it always stays within 65 degrees.
Both are excellent choices, i would go with the MSI (personally) because i have never owned a xfx card although i'm sure it's a good card. If you want to OC the GTR would probadly be the best choice since it has one of the best custom pcb and MSI has the best cooling solution.
good choice man :D
You should include measurements of the overclocked card running Doom with Vulkan. After all that's where you should see a real advantage to overclocking since the architecture appears to be tailored to Vulkan/DX12.
Finally saw some aftermarket RX 480s available on Newegg.ca.. Had a choice between this and the Asus strix version, I think I'll much prefer this, my old MSI 6950 is 5 years old and still works great (a little loud though). The new rx 480's red/black with silver heatsink pipes will match my new build perfectly. Can't wait for this upgrade :D
Isn't the reference RX 480 supposed to be $200 for the 4GB model and $230-$240 for the 8GB model? I mean, those are the prices I've been seeing, except on Amazon
First, I just wanted to say that I've been hooked on your videos recently. Just solid in depth explanations and reviews. Second, Titanfall is my spirit animal and I know I will be playing Titanfall 2 a bunch. Would I be better off with the 480 or 1060? I know Titanfall 1 was nVidia optimized but I seriously refuse to pay the price for a g-sync monitor. Which is turn has me weighing the 480 heavily. I guess if I'm only losing a handful of frames depending on the game the 480 seems like the better buy.
You mention in the beginning that the card is $265, any idea how long before we see the card listed at this price?
Great review thanks. As part of your final analysis I'd ask for recommendations based on future proofing and longevity of the different cards. Otherwise, great info.
Please do a head to head of MSI Gaming X versions of RX 480 and GTX 1060
super underrated youtuber, take my subscribe and a thumbs up!
Super informative and in depth review, thank you!
I do want to say that as of December 2016, AMD has released extensive driver updates and boosted performance by an average of around 10% in DX11 and 6-8% in DX12 and Vulkan. To anyone watching this and wondering what the 480 benches at in certain games now, take the FPS from these videos from the summer and multiply by about 1.1. That should be close to what the card gets in December of 2016.
Does it run Just Cause 3 in max settings at 60 fps?
Sorry for being 3 years late, but just cause 3 is heavily reliant on cpu
The MSI RX 480 Gaming is almost 400€ here in germany... building pc's here is very expensive compared to the US and Canada
+Gamers Nexus, You HAVE to hybrid cool the TITAN XP, I want to see how insane the temps and performance would be then!
MSI 480 vs MSI 1060 plz!
I couldnt wait for rx 480, so I went for 1060, is it a right desission Steve?
did you not watch the benchmarks? Both of the cards are in there (yes both Gaming X)
The Older 970 beats the 480 so I dont think the 1060 will be fucked later by the 480. Just because you say something doesn't mean its so. I heard the same shit of amd fanboys when the 390x and fury came out. They were very, very wrong.
the 390 and fury are generally kicking nvidia counterparts ass's in new dx12 and vulkan games.
and likewise the 480 kicks the 1060's ass in all but 1 of the low level API games out now, (the odd one out being tombraider, which is stuffed with gameworks tech)
Prices and stock levels here in the uk are crazy, currently building a new rig and the RX 480 is the card I want, I'll get the sapphire nitro I think, but stock isn't there :(
Looking forward to the Sapphire Nitro review, I have one of these and the clock rate to cooling solution is interesting to say the least.
May I convey some critiuqe; though I really like your method of testing and the your very analyctical approach to testing, I would suggest that you 1. Talk slower and more clear, for me you are mumbling somewhat and sometimes talking very fast. 2. Talk less. For me you are "over"-talking. Convey the message more concise and try and get the message through with less amount of words.
I'm not a native english speaker, though I obviously do understand english perfectly, so my critique could be due to that. Take it or leave it.
I do like your videos otherwise I would be here bitching at all so keep up the good work.
I would have liked to hear your opinion on what you think would be better in the future concerning DX21 and Vulkan as DX11 usage will be phased over time !
for nvidia's sake, I hope that pascal was a turbocharged maxwell because volta is going to bring on hardware level asynchronous compute. if they don't, amd looks to be back in the swing of things provided they figure out how to push out drivers without issue. I haven't seen these guys complain about new nvidia drivers causing issue. I personally haven't
Well, since there is mostly no really big difference between 480 and 1060 and you don't go for most fps in one or two specific games, you just can buy the card which you like most, I guess.
Udo der Unförmige the reason why rx480 is better because freesync is cheaper and supports crossfire
That's a reason for picking a RX 480. For the GTX 1060 it is the lower power consumption. So indeed it depends on your own preferences.
"future proof" for an AMD card doesn't matter - at least for me, since most gamers change their GPU every two or three years.
Thank you for this review. We really appreciated it
When is this coming out on Amazon? Goddammit
Another good review. This MSI card looks like the best RX480 card available. I think it looks to do much better on acoustics than the Sapphire Nitro
Excellent Review. Great Video!
How does this RX 480 perform vs the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 8GB w/ 1342mhz OC? Specifically on DOOM w/ Vulkan. (FPS and Temps?)
I've been waiting a month why is it taking so long for aib 480's to hit the market?
Demand is so much...
Ayyy. Got my Nitro+ OC. Last Thursday 😝😝😝
+Matthew Fennell Damn you're so lucky!!! I want the Saphire Nitro+ so much but none are in stock ;(
mine still hasn't shipped. Amazon where are you!
because of crypto miners
Just bought a RX480 x gamer today. Can't wait to get it.
how is it?
Did you guys also review the noise levels of this card? Or at least please show a small clip of the card running at 100% load. I'd like to be able to compare it's noise levels to the sapphire nitro+ oc (which got a bad rep for being noisy)
Damn Steve, you amaze me everytime! You put a lot of effort in these videos explaining all we need To know! Keep it up :)
Thanks! Glad to have regulars :)
I have this card. Was able to get it to 1403 MHz on the core and 2250 on the memory with timings at level 1.
I get 100 fps average on Forza horizon 4! And I can play overwatch in 1440p 120fps in fights
Mine has a coil whine since Ive overclocked it so far which kinda is a bummer though.
The way I see it:
GTX 1060 - Better here and now in the majority (though not all) DX11 titles, especially with regards to tight, consistent frame times. Much cooler & quieter with significantly higher clocks.
RX 480 - Showing more promise for the DX12 & Vulkan games of tomorrow. If you want to spend GTX 1060 prices, you'll get an extra 2GB of VRAM over that card, or you can skimp if you think you'll be okay with 4GB. All in all, looking to be a more future proof option depending on how long you plan on keeping it.
I would still opt for more vram, or just continue waiting for something else
Yeah the fact that Nvidia has locked SLI support for the 1060 really closed the deal for me. It's almost like Nvidia is scared that had the 1060 been SLI ready it would beat or compete with their more expensive cards for less money. Nvidia is just greedy while AMD does all the innovation.
And there's CF, which is a legitimate consideration at this price point.
DemonSage: Speaking of innovation, how about that HBM and DX12/Vulkan (based on AMD Mantle)? NVIDIA innovates a lot (tile-based rasterisation on desktop GPUs) but locks up their ideas behind closed doors.
+Julio Calderon Nvidia card are not futureproof because of Nvidia downgrade
*note the GAMING non- X version will be cheaper but will only have a boost clock of 1292mhz i believe.
Great video! Man, the RX480 is still my choice due to Freesync capability (I'll take that with a 4gb model over a more expensive 1060 and non-sync panel.) The AIB situation is just a fiasco though, I just don't know what other way to put it. The 1060 cards are pretty much all out, yet there are only 2 AIB RX480s on Newegg right now (both out of stock), over a month after launch. To add to that, the Sapphire Nitro looks like a disappointment.
XFX and Gigabyte need to hurry up and come out with some great all black cards
@Gamer Nexus nice review. I was wondering since I saw people discuss this on a lot of forums.. some people that own both AMD and NVIDIA GPU claim that the AMD GPU has better colour reproduction in scenes with a lot of vibrant colours and apparently it has better blacks? Would you mind to look at this? I wonder how much of this is true.
Are you hearing what you say? Or you simply dumb ? The monitor displays the colors, it's nothing to do with the GPU
Bogdan Staicu You are wrong. Look 2-3 years back at the NVIDIA issue with HDMI. It was fixed by driver since then but there was a huge color reproduction error that was present for quite a long time before they fixed it. And besides, NVIDIA renders image differently than AMD so it may do a lot with differences in image quality even if not very noticable at first glance.
is the msi rx 480 4gb worth it? its only going for 200 bucks.
they said the price for an rx480 8gb is 249...why all stores sells it for 300??
I'm still using this card at the end of 2021. It's a monster at 1080p it's a shame that Bitcoin miners have ruined the GPU market
Hey, Curran. Me too. Still going strong except for one fan becoming wobbly this week. Would you have any idea what size these fans are? Enjoy the new year.
Very good info. thanks buddy.
Awesome in depth review.
Im a bit disappointed with the OC headroom for the card, with an aftermarket model, which have better cooling then reference and usually extra power to push OC. Hopefully other partner models will OC better.
Of those cards you haven't reviewed yet (such as ASUS), is it because you don't have them or what?
I'm really interested in what they've been able to achieve with these new chips.
Basically until ALL the various cards have been put thru their paces can anyone truly make an informed choice.
And there's still the 'problem' of retailers gouging consumers because of the debacle of retail card availability.
:>)
Only 15 dollars more on this card? Sweet!
Altho in Belgium I expect that they'll translate that into a 30+ euro increase over the reference 8Gig version...
Let the waiting game begin! Price gouging should decrease overtime I guess c:
MSI! When are you shipping to the Philippines? :)
man those prices are bullshit here in Romania... The Nitro+ 8GB is $400 and I don't see the prices changing anytime soon
Here in the UK the price difference between the reference RX 480 & this card is £70, £50 more than the Nitro+oc
);
hey i just want to know if the MSI RX 480 8gb video card great for video editing?
Dude my Geforce 315 is good for video editing so you should be fine! :-)
Do you believe with new updates on drivers and MSI-Afterburning, we will be seeing higher overclocking in due time on these cards that have 8pin and good cooling solutions?
Is there a reason, that many reviews do not include the 1070 in their charts? I would like to see how it sorts itself in betwenn the 1060 and the 1080
The 1070 is included.
The 8GB version is £299.99, that's $400
guess I'm waiting a while until pricing and supply stabilises.
Do you know when the 4GB version of the Gaming X version will be available?
What the hell are Gigabyte doing with their G1 RX 480? They haven't even finalised the clocks.
I'm just bummed its only that red color. I wish there was more customization options. Still cheaper then the Sapphire Nitro though.
Where can I actually find the MSI rx 480 gaming x
I can't seem to find it on amazon or newegg even through the links
Is it not out yet?
That was a truly great review, thanks for that. Only one comment about the conclusion. Although you repeated some information a couple times, each time left out was at least one of the compelling reasons and or aspects to consider. First the sound which seemed to be such an issue to warrant it's own video would likely even out to nothing. Assuming the MSI people do like most and apply the exact same cooler as any other Card OEM's, and the fan curves are relatively similar when not profiled. The 480 is less expensive, comes with more VRAM, has CF capability and shows the most promise for more recent current and future games. The 1060 is a fantastic Card which NVIDIA chose to SLI gimp in order that you cannot achieve a near Titan X performance level for close to *5 times* less cost.
Take my sub. Great video.
The reference card is $240, not $250. Also. the red devil and the Nitro cards are $10 over the price they quoted they would sell for. I would bet MSI does the same thing. Lowball the price, and then it turns out to be $10 more. So you are paying $35 more at the end of the day.
And for an measly extra 2 to 8 FPS NOT worth it IMO
+Alberto Martinez and MUCH cooler.
moh you Which doesn't really even matter....
Even if you want to argue the heat will shorten the card's lifespan, fine. Except Sapphire and powercolor only have 2 year warranties, A lot of the reference cards have 3 year warranties.
If you think this card will matter after 3 years, you are crazy.
the reference card throttles unless you go over 3200 rpm on fan while oced 1300mhz
10-20 dollars more for stability its worth it
john handcock
I'd say that you can easily sell it as used and very good condition on ebay and get some money back. Nobody would want to buy a used reference rx 480 since the cooler sucks.
Hey folks, pls make a final benchmark chart which shows avg. framerates of all your benchmarks. (though split it in dx11/12/vulcan)
Getting this card tomorrow after owning nvidia cards for the last 8 years. Really excited, hope it runs well with hbao+ since i prefer it over ssao.
s0ad29 You get it yet? How is it
Yeah i did :) I'm really impressed by the temps and how cool it runs, haven't had any issues so far and it performance better than my old gtx 970 at 1450 mhz.
While watching UA-cam or Netflix, my MSI RX 480 Gaming X 4GB keeps its memory clock at 1750Mhz while the core clock usually fluctuates a bit. Because of this, my RX480 reaches 58 degrees celsius easily within half an hour of watching Netflix or YT which means the fans starts spinning. Is this even normal? I thought the fans would never spin even in light load...
Just bought the 1070 Gaming X :D
Has anyone seen where these are available? I can't find anyone who stocks them....
I really want this graphics card. I am going to buy one of these when they get back in stock. The thing I'm worried about is my CPU. I am using a fx 6300 overclocked just a little bit. I want to upgrade to Intel but can't find anything fairly cheap. I am actually thinking about getting a i5-2500k with mb on eBay for around $180. Will it be worth it? I want to reuse the system I have as much as possible so I figured this would be a decent "upgrade" for right now
so you couldn't give it more voltage?if this something that may be fixed in the future?
No mention of PLP eyefinity support?
You didnt get a titan?
have you guys really only done 2, maybe 3, videos on the gtx 1070? geez
way to much red team her for me
Pricing in Europe is totally but totally out of common sense... This card - MSI RX 480 Gaming X cost 329 € (Germany) and 351 € (Slovakia). I wonder who would buy one for that money? I am interested in this card, but I won't buy it for more than 230 €.
Im using the 4gb version that i got from Newegg for $160. Then got a $20 rebate on top of that. running Doom and Crysis 3 great.
for me the msi rx 480 is 270€ and the msi rx 480 gx is 330€.
wich one should i buy?
RX480-8GB + Arctic Accelor Twin Turbo Pro 11.- € (Ebay). No OC. -> Furmarkreport:
av.1229,01 / 25-27 FPS / max. (!) 88 Grad C. 269€+11€ = 280€
sorry for my ignorance, i'm a newbie with computer software, whats a good power supply to power up this graphics card?
I don't care about over clocking personally, if I can get 100fps at 1080p with a temp that's not gonna burn my hand if I touch the card, then it's good enough for me.
I like my 750Ti right now cus it lingers around a mere 60c and something cooler than that sounds absolutely amazing, especially since looking at comparison sites, it's about 200% faster and has x4 the Vram....and I need the Vram right now cus I installed 2k texture mods on my games and OMG, THE STUTTER IS REAL!
i bought the 1060 version of this card im very impressed i wanted the 480 version but got too impatient waiting for it to arrive its never went over 47c so far
you bought a RX 1060?
MSI GTX1060 Gaming X 6G, I guess :-p.
+rare Pepe gtx 1060
