AMD Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 Official Specifications Leaked
The official specifications of two the two upcoming mainstream graphics cards by AMD, the Radeon RX 470, and the Radeon RX 460, were leaked to the web as slides from the company's official press presentation ahead of their early-August product launches. The RX 470 is based on the same "Ellesmere" Polaris10 silicon as the RX 480. It features 2,048 stream processors across 32 GCN compute units; 128 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and 4 GB of memory across a 256-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface.
The RX 470 features clock speeds of 926 MHz core, 1206 MHz boost, and 6.6 Gbps memory, working out to 211 GB/s memory bandwidth. The RX 460, on the other hand, is based on the "Baffin" Polaris11 silicon, featuring 896 stream processors, 48 TMUs, 16 ROPs, and 4 GB of memory across a 128-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface. Its core is clocked at 1090 MHz, with 1200 MHz boost, and 7 Gbps memory, working out to 112 GB/s memory bandwidth. The RX 470 draws power from a single 6-pin PCIe power connector as its TDP is rated at 120W; the RX 460 relies entirely on the PCIe slot for its power, as its TDP is rated at <75W. The RX 470 will be available from 4th August, 2016; with the RX 460 following on 8th August.

55 Comments on AMD Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 Official Specifications Leaked
EDIT: Wait a minute... "Brilliant HD gaming at Ultra settings"?
According to TPU's benchmark the RX480 does just about 66fps on 1600x900 in Hitman...
Do they call 1280x720 HD gaming or something or what?
and secondly, why is it being compared with the 270 and 260 and not the 370 and 360? would the difference be way too small otherwise and therefor show these cards as not all that interesting?
oh and also, the second slide with that 1x marker and the increase the card gives is once again skewed as hell, 1.2x looks like 1.4x if you compare the grey bar and the red bar.
Can we really not get some consumer protection agency to slap both AMD and Nvidia in the face for this blatant misleading they constantly do?
Based on RX 480 performance and the spec difference that would seem to make sense anyway.
As ever, the reviews will tell us more. :)
When will NV be releasing cards in this range? Because again, AMD will gain market share by this.
They look like okay cards but a gamer like me isn't going to get excited about them.
In that case, RX 460 is expected to be about as fast as a GTX 750 Ti
So, how revolutionary 99$ for a product like that would be, if the GTX 750 Ti is already being sold for 99$?
Acording to TPU review 750ti is 13% faster on average than a 260X. From these slides 460 is about 25% faster than 260X. Therefore, this new 75W card should perform at least 10% faster.
Would you buy a car that is from a version of 5years ago(produced who knows), costs the same and performs the same (or worse) than a new version of a car?
Perception is key here I think.
Everyone knows that is just sales-talk, like you said, and people falling for it deserve it. If you want to attack that, you can attack capitalism. Which you very well could. The food and pharmaceutical industry should be held to much more (public) scrutiny. Not a video card nor its PR.
