Quote: “At last AMD launched a true competitor [Radeon RX 460] to GeForce GTX 950. The higher price (with just $10) of the 4GB version is fully justified, as you get the extra of a 6-pin power supply connector, helping you to squeeze out the maximum potential of the card via overclock. This card combined with a FreeSync monitor is a terrific offer... The [price] positioning of Radeon RX 470 is a bit confusing... Instead of trying to steal a share of the RX 480 and GTX 1060 sales, it could be a true killer in the segment up to $180....I sincerely believe AMD will reconsider their pricing policy of Radeon RX 470, as this card has the potential to become a market hit.” Radeon RX 470 and RX 460: New AMD Polaris additions, now in action
Quote: “The difference between the models Radeon RX 470 and RX 480 with 4 GB VRAM is only $ 20, however (10%) is not so much to favor the little brother.” |

And it's actually great, because for the price it will be sold much cheaper than both listed" Sapphire Radeon RX 470
Quote: "As we have seen from the test RX 470 is a very capable card, which will make today's demanding titles run at about 60 frames per second in full detail. It's faster than the R9 380X and certainly much faster than the R9 380 whose it replacing. For a suggested price of $ 149 (excluding taxes), could certainly become a best buy for FHD gaming, and as we have seen has enough power for VR.

Everyone with, for example R9 270 cards will be delighted with the leap in performance" Asus Radeon RX 470
Quote: "Performance of this card are excellent, and generally few percent more than in the comparative Sapphire ovog RX470 OC model. This is because a lot better cooler manages to keep lower temperature by as much as 16 ° C while the GPU "Throttle" less. But the GPU for both cards but rather "strung" and is overclocking potential weak. The former 10-odd% increase in performance in these class of cards now we have fallen to only 2%.

Quote: “GIGABYTE Radeon RX 480 G1 Gaming 8G gets very close to MSI implementation in terms of performance, given that consumption is lower, and the noise level slightly higher. Perhaps the price for the GBT version will be lower than the one for Gaming X version, in which case the AMD fans are getting an extra option, one worth taking into account.” XFX RADEON RX 480 GTR 8GB
Quote: “XFX Radeon RX 480 GTR 8GB exemplifies perfectly what I said in the introduction to this article. Performance differences between implementations are negligible, and each buyer will choose according to their favorite brand, its specific features and services provided post-acquisition. In this case, we are dealing with the coldest implementation RX 480 we tested so far, equipped with new technology for fan cooling.” MSI RADEON RX 480 GAMING X 8G
Quote: “The MSI implementation has managed to get in trouble the two models of GTX 1060 we tested in some situations, which is admirable considering that MSI Radeon RX 480 Gaming X 8G costs ~ 1320 RON, and MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X costs ~650 RON.” Gigabyte RADEON RX 460 Windforce 2OC
Quote: “AMD offers a more efficient alternative for 360, GTX 750 Ti and 370, and brought up to date in terms of graphics technologies, bringing a breath of fresh air in an area ignored by the competition in the past years. GIGABYTE’s version we tested should cost aprox. 539 RON, but we will definitely find more expensive models in stores.”– ASUS RADEON RX 470 4GB STRIX OC
Quote: “We can say that we do not have a real competitor to give RX470 any headaches, 380X is 10-15% weaker for a similar price, while the GTX 960 offers significantly less performance. In this situation, two things are quite clear. First, the launch of the RX 470 is a successful launch, AMD strengthening its position in this price segment, and second, there is an increasing lack of competitor choice from Nvidia in this segment, a GTX1050 maybe?” |

Quote: “From the simplified charts you can tell that the Strix 480 is very close to the GTX 980. This is because there are few benchmarks that run better on AMD GPUs. Besides, the RX 480 benefits on high resolution from the extra 4GB of memory.” |

Quote: “ASUS ROG STRIX-O4G-GAMING-RX470 is a video card with a noise level in idle down to zero, cool and quiet in gaming, capable of delivering decent performance and reduced energy consumption. And that should be often enough for a gamer, especially given the attractive price of approx. 1050 Lei.” Radeon RX 480 – decency on every direction
Quote: “Polaris 10 is undoubtedly a successful chip. Radeon RX 480 offers similar performance to a standard Radeon R9 390 and is slightly faster than a GTX 970, while having a lower purchase price. The new AMD Radeon RX 480 is presented as a successful mix of performance, power consumption, noise levels and price, and AIBs versions are very promising.

All this is due to the new Radeon RX460 and its reasonable price, which now completely displaces the current best choice in this class - GeForce 750T, a card that is already two generations old. 750Ti is listed as the minimum for most graphics-intensive games that are currently out, so that it is clear that since the RX460 achieves better performance will certainly be able to at least run all the newer games in a decent frame rate (although not in high detail) in foreseeable future."

Result is minimal performance difference, although RX470 chip has 2,048 stream processors in relationship to 2,304 inside RX480. On top of that, Sapphire has installed excellent system cooling that’s better than reference AMD RX480 design. Result is less noise and lower temperatures under load.” Sapphire Radeon RX 480
Quote: "GTX1060 model competes against AMD Radeon RX480 or accelerated RX470 such as Sapphire Nitro. Performance is either the same or GTX1060 is slightly faster, but due to the difference in price, Radeon RX480 certainly has something to offer. Oculus Rift testing has shown that the RX480 some situations handles better, so it is good "entry-level" VR solution. If you do not plan VR adventure and want just a standard gaming at 1440p resolution, then the RX470 is optimal option." |

In games that use DirectX 11, Radeon is closer to weaker rival, while in (still rare) DirectX 12 titles catch up and goes beyond stronger contender. Truth to be told these are previous generation models, but they're still available and are priced just like two years ago and are much more expensive compared to RX 480." Svet Kompjutera (printed)
Quote: "Why did we compared two cards that do not belong in the same class? Because we want to compare the price and performance. Radeon is almost 100 euros cheaper than the GTX 1060. Anyone who does not insist on the three-digit number of frames per second, will have its “cake and eat it” in 1080p gaming, for considerably less money." |
