The Radeon RX 480 Mobile is a mobile graphics chip by AMD, launched on August 4th, 2016. Built on the 14 nm process, and based on the Ellesmere graphics processor, in its Ellesmere XT variant, the chip supports DirectX 12. This ensures that all modern games will run on Radeon RX 480 Mobile. The Ellesmere graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 232 mm² and 5,700 million transistors. It features 2304 shading units, 144 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. AMD has paired 8 GB GDDR5 memory with the Radeon RX 480 Mobile, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1000 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1077 MHz, memory is running at 2000 MHz (8 Gbps effective).
Being a mxm module card, the AMD Radeon RX 480 Mobile does not require any additional power connector, its power draw is rated at 100 W maximum. This device has no display connectivity, as it is not designed to have monitors connected to it. Rather it is intended for use in laptop/notebooks and will use the output of the host mobile device.
