Amd rx 480: crossfire results

We have talked a lot about the RX 480, the AMD graphics card is currently under NDA until June 29 but information about it has been leaking in recent days and will probably continue this way until Wednesday.

New results are known in Crossfire of the AMD card, below the GTX 1080

In the last hours, a video of a Thai retailer about the RX 480 running on Crossfire has been published and the results obtained in the 3DMark Firestrike benchmark. This is important because AMD, when announcing this graphic, had boasted that it was faster than Nvidia's GTX 1080 and cheaper than it.

With the corresponding capture of the GPU-Z to determine that we are indeed facing the new graph that will begin to be commercialized on June 29, we proceeded to perform the benchmark and show the results live.

RX 480 scored 13, 047 on the 3DMark Firestrike, this would be well below the 17, 455 points that the GTX 1080 scored in our tests. At this point we must stop and take into account a very important fact, the analysis we carried out was done with an i7-6700k processor , while in the case of the RX 480 this was done under an AMD Bulldozer (FX) processor. This obviously alters the results a lot.

As for overclocking, the GPU was set at 1, 328MHz with a TDP of 147.3 Watts, this suggests that the graph would not reach 1.5GHz on its GPU as published, but this is only speculation and we will have it clear when the NDA is over.

Recall the new AMD graphics will begin to market in Spain at a cost of 229 euros for the 4GB version. Meanwhile, the video where the live test had been posted was placed in private, we don't know why.
