XFX RX 480 GTR Performance Results

Durvelle27 · Aug 29, 2016

Ok guys I'm looking into getting a GPU for my rig i built which will be for rendering and gaming at 1080P. And i saw this XFX RX 480 GTR which really grabbed my attention with the specs and cooling solution. The problem is i can't find a single review on it at all. Does anyone personally own this card and can chime in on how it performs.

You can wait for reviews or simply buy it, from the looks the card seems good for me. If it's bad or loud or so you can still return it, but the risk on a 150W TDP card and such a big cooler isn't high I'd say, it's not a 290X.

I purchased it but I'm still curious to see how people like it and how it does under load.

For a small fan

The heatsink looks like a very well thought out design.

I take it this is on 1080p right ? that min fps is a bit low compare to my 970, is the 480 just not up to it or your X5650 is holding it back ?

Doubt it is holding it back since it's faster than your 3770.

sure, in multi threaded apps. I'm not so sure in gaming though, since my 3770 is @4.1
