Filtered specifications and performance of the radeon rx 500

We have new information on the AMD Radeon RX 500 in the form of a slide presentation, this time to confirm the specifications of the different cards. It also shows us that AMD has radically changed its reference design to a dual-fan configuration, much more efficient than turbine heatsinks.

Radeon RX 500, all the details

The new Radeon RX 580 comes with a Polaris core made up of 36 Compute Units at a base frequency of 1, 257 MHz that goes up to 1, 340 MHz under turbo, 74 MHz above the 1, 266 MHz maximum frequency of the Radeon RX 480. This card maintains 8 GB of GDDR5 memory with a 256-bit interface from the previous version. AMD has compared it with the Radeon R9 380, we do not understand why it has not been with the Radeon RX 480 but there is the data.

The Radeon RX 570 maintains the same specifications as the Radeon RX 470 but sees its frequency increased by 38 mHz to reach 1, 244 Mhz in its 32 Compute Units. It will arrive in 8 GB and 4 GB variants of GDDR5 memory with a 256-bit interface.

We continue with the Radeon RX 560 that comes with a total of 1024 stream processors and 64 TMUs, so we are talking about 16 Compute Units that operate at a maximum frequency of 1, 257 MHz to provide significantly higher performance than the Radeon RX 460 that complies with 896 stream processors and 14 Compute Units. It comes with 4GB of GDDR5 memory with a 128-bit interface.

Finally we have the Radeon RX 550 with 8 Compute Units at a frequency of 1, 183 MHz and a total of 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, supposedly also with a 128-bit interface. It is the least powerful card and recommended only for MOBA and similar games.
