Amd radeon rx 57011/28/2023 ![]() AMD Radeon RX Series Specification ComparisonĪt the high end is AMD’s new midrange contender, the Radeon RX 580. When the dust settled from the launch of AMD’s Polaris and NVIDIA’s Pascal architectures in 2016, NVIDIA generally prevailed, so this is AMD’s chance to rethink their gameplan and continue trying to grab market share from NVIDIA. NVIDIA has seemingly already made their move for 2017 in the midrange market with the optional 9Gbps factory overclocked GTX 1060 SKUs, so AMD would appear to be setting the stage for what should be much the rest of the year. The RX 500 series’ job isn’t to radically alter the competitive landscape – that’s Vega’s job – but rather it’s to push out a bit more performance and help close the gap in the midrange market with NVIDIA, while giving partners something new for 2017. Otherwise for AMD, this is a chance to partially clean the slate for 2017. For those owners who did hold off, their reward is a slightly more powerful upgrade option in 2017 than they would have gotten in 2016. Instead they’re meant to tempt owners of cards like the R9 280 and R9 380 series who didn’t already upgrade to Polaris. AMD hasn’t done anything wild here – the configurations haven’t changed, and in fact TBPs have gone up – so relative to the RX 480 and RX 470, at the end of the day it’s a set of slightly more powerful cards for the same price as before.īecause these are just minor performance improvements over the existing RX 480 and RX 470 cards, these newer cards replace the RX 400 cards in AMD’s product stack, but they aren’t intended as upgrades for existing owners. ![]() These SKUs are pretty straightforward: take the new Polaris 10 GPU revision, plug it into more powerful boards, turn up the clockspeeds a bit, and you have a new SKU. The first Radeon RX 500 cards out of the gate are the Radeon RX 580 and the Radeon 570, which we’re reviewing today. AMD is using an updated revision of Polaris for all of these products, so there are some minor clockspeed improvements and a new memory state that have been baked into the RX 500 family that is not present in the RX 400 family, which makes the new RX 500 parts a bit more interesting. Also joining the family is a newer, smaller GPU, Polaris 12, which will be the basis of the Radeon RX 550. As we’re covering in our companion launch article, the RX 500 series is a refresh of Polaris, bringing about newer, faster SKUs based on the existing Polaris 10 and 11 GPUs. Its price at launch was 169 US Dollars.Launching today is AMD’s new Radeon RX 500 series. The card measures 241 mm in length, and features a dual-slot cooling solution. Radeon RX 570 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface. Display outputs include: 1x DVI, 1x HDMI 2.0b, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1168 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1244 MHz, memory is running at 1750 MHz (7 Gbps effective).īeing a dual-slot card, the AMD Radeon RX 570 draws power from 1x 6-pin power connector, with power draw rated at 150 W maximum. AMD has paired 4 GB GDDR5 memory with the Radeon RX 570, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. It features 2048 shading units, 128 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs. Unlike the fully unlocked Radeon RX 580, which uses the same GPU but has all 2304 shaders enabled, AMD has disabled some shading units on the Radeon RX 570 to reach the product's target shader count. ![]() The Polaris 20 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 232 mm² and 5,700 million transistors. This ensures that all modern games will run on Radeon RX 570. Built on the 14 nm process, and based on the Polaris 20 graphics processor, in its Polaris 20 XL variant, the card supports DirectX 12. The Radeon RX 570 is a mid-range graphics card by AMD, launched on April 18th, 2017.
