AMD Radeon RX 480 Graphics Card Review

Doom
AMD graphics cards tend to perform quite poorly in Doom compared to their NVIDIA counterparts and I hope this improves in the future. The RX 480 does rather well though and never drops below 60 frames-per-second. Additionally, it’s tantalising close to the R9 Nano which is ridiculous given the $199.99 price point.
Unfortunately, the graphics card falls down the ranking order during 1440p testing but it’s still able to offer a consistent gaming experience with minor frame-rate drops. On another note, the results here show that the RX 480 is a suitable choice for 1440p users.
The RX 480 struggles once the resolution is set to 4K and requires some fairly hefty concessions in the options menu to maintain a fluid frame-rate.
