Amd radeon rx 580: overclocking and new benchmarks

The well-known overclocker Lau Kin Lam has carried out an extensive test on the Radeon RX 580 graphics card with quite interesting results. The exact specifications of the RX 580 model that he used in the test are not well known, although it appears to be an exclusive version from China. Still, the card is known to have been taking advantage of the motherboard's 8-pin power connector, an important point in trying to boost the chip's frequencies.

AMD Radeon RX 580 test on GPUZ

The first test the Radeon RX 580 was subjected to was through the GPU-Z 1.19.0 software, which is the latest version currently available. In the following screenshot you can see all the specifications correctly, although the only difference of the RX 480 is in the sections of "review" and "Device ID", in addition to the clock frequencies.

All tests were performed with the RX 580 at a speed of 1360MHz, that is, the results are comparable to those of the RX 480 with the same frequency.

AMD Radeon RX 580 overclocking

As we said earlier, the XFX model of the Radeon RX 580 only has an 8-pin connector, so the card could only be overclocked up to 1500MHz with increased voltage. The most stable configuration that could be achieved was 1480 / 8500MHz with +12 mV on the graphics card.

Below is the screenshot:

On the other hand, the Radeon RX was also put to run two games with settings and maximum quality. These were R ainbow Six Siege and The Division, both in 1080p.

While The Division reached an average framerate of 61.8FPS, Rainbow Six Siege averaged 136.7 frames per second.
