ASUS STRIX RX 460 Slides Leaked – Allows Sweet Spot Gaming At 1440p Resolutions And Improved Cooling Tech

With AMD's RX 460 details widely available to the public, manufacturers similar ASUS accept started to produce their non-reference variants, and the 1 that we will be debriefing you guys on is the ASUS STRIX RX 460. Here are all the details that you wished to know.

ASUS STRIX RX 460 Slides Leak Testify Far Better Performance Than Reference Version – Adds More Purpose For Gamers Wishing To Play At The 1440p Resolution

Detailed slides taken from VideoCardz show massive comparing details between the ASUS STRIX RX 460 and the reference version of the GPU. ASUS has stated that the superior cooling tech used by the company will let the GPU to run xxx percent cooler than the reference version, which will naturally give tweakers some overclocking headroom when they want to obtain more frames from upcoming video game titles. Unfortunately, the company has also mentioned that the superior cooling of the GPU will merely exist displayed under a given set of atmospheric condition, which at this indicate, is ambient temperature of 25 degrees Celsius.

According to the performance stats, there are a full of two benchmarks given; one synthetic and one gaming criterion highlighting ii graphically intensive titles. The non-reference version of RX 460 obtained a 38 per centum performance gain in both DOOM and Hitman. With the reference version unable to hit the 30FPS barrier, it was the ASUS STRIX RX 460 that will provide the sweetness spot for gamers at the 1440p resolution, but we're more than inclined to say that the 1080p resolution would offer the about fluid gameplay sessions for gamers on a very tight budget.

As you lot can tell past these numbers, the RX 460 isn't going to be bravado anyone away. Information technology features less than half the Stream Processors of the RX 470 at a count 896 chugging along at 1090/1200MHz (base/boost), the RX 460 cranks out 2.2TFLOPS of Peak Compute Performance. While the memory configuration starts at 2GB of GDDR5, AMD's manufacturing partners will definitely increase that memory. The card itself is running at 7Gbps on a 128bit bus resulting in memory bandwidth of 112GB/s.

The efficiency of AMD RX 460 allow it to swallow All of these changes result in the RX 460 being able to characteristic a TDP of 75W, but we still that more not-reference versions are going to exist released in the near hereafter sporting a 6-pin power connector, so nosotros'll update yous on more of these GPUs every bit soon as we come across them.
