AMD Radeon RX 480 CrossFire Review

The author states in the conclusion section: "At just $398, about the same price as the cheapest GeForce GTX 1070 you can find, or $478 for a pair of 8 GB cards like those we have, Radeon RX 480 CrossFire is not a viable solution if you plan to buy two cards upfront. When averaged over all our games, it is consistently slower than a single GeForce GTX 1070 at all the resolutions that matter - 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. Instead of buying two cards upfront, you're much better off putting your monies into a single GTX 1070, not just for better performance but to dodge the spectre of application multi-GPU support, which continues to haunt both SLI and CrossFire."

So it's better to buy a single GTX 1070 than two Rx480 hmm

ninsigma2912d ago

Yeah looks that way! I think once the price of the 1070 regulates, it's the much better choice.

Lon3wolf2911d ago

It always has been better to use a single card solution, nothing new at all. Saying that after all the words from AMD I am underwhelmed at the 480.

Cweed2911d ago

All these 480 benchmarks are pretty underwhelming for me. Still a good card I think but I was really hoping it would beat the 970 and be somewhere between it and the 980.

"NVIDIA's Generative AI-Powered Modding Tool Is A Gamechanger For The Industry"

True, the especially for all the industry that gets put out of work by it.

Have you ever used a self service checkout in a store? Should we ditch alarm clocks so that we can hire people to shoot peas at our bedroom windows to wake us up like they did in the 1800s?

Einhander19726h ago

Working at a grocery store as a checkout clerk used to be a respectable job that could support a family.

I try to avoid them at all costs, why should we do a cashiers/clerks job without any training and without being paid for it? Comparing people losing their jobs to A.I. to people from the 1800's shooting peas is hilarious, good try though.
