A: I play Diablo 3, Overwatch, Just started getting into HOS again, and occasional SC2. D3 on the highest settings runs around 75-95 FPS. Same for HOS and SC2. I run crossfire with these cards with Overwatch but with a single card on EPIC it runs around 60-80 FPS no problem. With crossfire on Overwatch it sniffs 150-170 FPS on epic with no problem. These XFX RX 480 8gb cards are the best band for your buck in my honest opinion. I have the XFX RX 480 4gb card in my fiances PC with a AM3+ FX 6100 and her computer runs D3 and a couple of other games with no problems that i've noticed. I run the FX 8350 Black Edition in my rig with 16gb of Corsair Vengence DDR3 Ram. I think you would be happy with it. And the best thing is it doesn't suck up much power at all. I was to say 150w under max load. Hope this was helpful. P.S. This is all done on a 1920x1080 res
A: I think it is just a Best Buy specific SKU
A: Answering my own question but...contacted them and they said the do not sell plain black fans so the tech marked it as defective fans and sent me the non-led fans for free!! Also the site (registration for card) showed a game i could get but after entering the code (from card that came in box) it wouldn't work...tech also fixed that on the spot so i got DOOM!! for free too. XFX support looks to be pretty great!
A: They probably just forgot to put it in there but it's the same warranty as the 470.
Q: Does this card play blu rays at 1080p24? The 460 version refused. Thanks!
A: Blu-ray playback on a computer usually requires software. Be sure you have that software. As far as this graphics card goes, it will handle whatever you throw at it including Blu-rays. I have a LG Blu-ray drive in my tower and it plays movies as expected.
