Unbelievably, the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 OC outperforms the R9 Nano by a large margin and completely destroys the GTX 980. Also, it’s a major improvement over the MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X.
The graphics card doesn’t falter when the resolution is increased to 2560×1440 and maintains its superiority over competing NVIDIA models. This is astounding and you have to admire the price to performance ratio at your disposal.
Despite having to deal with a hefty preset while pushing so many pixels, the graphics card can uphold a fairly consistent 30 frames-per-second experience. Granted, you’ll want to reduce some settings to make the frame-rate appear less jarring. As you can see, the graphics card offers a good frame-rate improvement compared to the GTX 980.
