XFX - AMD Radeon RX 460 4 GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card

Not a bad lower end video card. Runs DOOM 2016 well. Started playing Mad Max on full settings. Again, pretty impressive. The card does seem to run rather hot. It's crashed a few times. Opening up the PC and a big room fan directly on the card helps keep it not so hot. But for the money I really can't complain.

Bought this to replace an older AMD video card. Installed in minutes and after getting the drivers from the Amd website - the included cd drivers didn't want to load - ran like a charm. Very quiet and runs cool.

I hadn't bought a new video card for a really long time but I keep up to date on the latest tech and cards. I was waiting for a $200 RX 480 but every seller and vendor has marked them up a ton and there’s been no availability so I just decided to grab the 460. I would consider myself a casual gamer and most of my gaming is on Xbone/PS4. My PC is (2700k i7, 16 GB ram, SSD etc...) but I never dropped a graphics card in it so this is the first; the 460 has relieved the CPU of its GPU duties so the system seems a little less laggy. I haven't had the 460 long but FarCry 4 at 45-55 avg fps on high setting at 1080 was more than I expected out of the 460 actually. I'm on a 30" monitor and it doesn't look like I can set FarCry to the native screen resolution so it's stuck at 1080 but I'll keep working on that. It looks better than the PS4/XBOX for sure. The 460 was my choice because it is 14nm, DX12 ready with ACE units, DP 1.4 is great, it runs cool, (no extensive testing but when I've looked, it's topped out at 40c) and AMD is finally getting aggressive which is awesome for consumers. The card is silent, but a little big for how tiny the silicon is. It requires a 6 pin connector but it doesn't really mention that in the description. It does come with a 4x2 pin to 6 pin adapter though. All in all I’m very happy with the card and maybe I'll look at navi/next nvidia when hbm2 is available. If you're a casual gamer, or into esports I guess, the 460 is a great choice. Brand new tech, silky smooth from my experience and $149 isn't much. Plus, AMD is really focused right now and two vendor options are way better than one.
