XFX - AMD Radeon RX 560 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card - Black

This is a great budget gaming card. I built it up with an i5-7400, 8 GB DDR2400 RAM and a 500 GB SSD. All is hooked up to a 30-inch 2560x1600 IPS display. Games I play include Lord of the Rings Online, Guild Wars 1/2, Diablo series, CS:GO, Borderlands 1/2. Looking to make some cash I sold my GTX 1070 and put this Radeon RX560 into the rig. I see absolutely no difference in real-world gaming experience between the two cards at 2560x1600. I know on paper and by tech specs there is no comparison between these classes of cards (and that the GTX 1070 blows it away). But all of the above games assign highest/best quality settings to both cards when I auto-detect the graphics properties. Sure, FRAPS tells me a different story when I actually watch framerates. But as far as gaming experience goes I see absolutely no difference. Actually, I prefer the colors and saturation of the AMD Radeon RX560 over the GTX 1070. Bottom line - in more demanding top tier games this card would most likely be trounced by other offerings. But if you are playing games similar to those listed above, even at 2K resolutions, the RX 560 will do perfectly well and provide you quite a satisying experience without stuttering or lag. I hope this helps someone making a decision on their purchase.

I bought this for my son’s computer to allow him to play games and I have to say for the money this was the best option I had and it was well worth it. He now plays games just as well as I can on my computer even though I have much more expensive equipment without any issues. He doesn’t get the mad frame rate but at medium high settings he’s happy and so am I.

I was wondering how I can buy an Radeon RX 560 install it and reads Radeon Rx 460

Monitor being used: Acer HA230, 23in, 1080 res monitor, 4ms Resp Time Destiny = FPS locked at 30fps and it's passible. Struggles at times at the tower. COD Warzone = I locked it at 30fps with basically everything set to low/med-low and its stable with no major hiccups during actual game play. Sea of Thieves = Locked at 30fps cause it'd try to hit 45, but it stuttered. If you have to get it due to budget, get it. Otherwise if you expand your budget just a little, the 570 would be a better bet.

FYI - RX 560's come in two forms now - 1024 shaders and 896 shaders. AMD doesn't do a good job being clear on which card is which. This one's the 896 shader version. Read the fine print before you buy but the actual performance difference is only about 3%-10% real world. Pro's - Very good FPS performance on 720p. Ok FPS performance on 1080p. (This is not for 4k games but does support 4k video). The card runs cool and quiet. DX12 and Vulcan support. It's a vast improvement on the Intel 530 integrated graphics it's meant to replace. It's a few FPS slower than the 1024 shader version and the GTX 1050 2gb cards (varies from game to game) - but it's less expensive too. If you want 60 FPS+ 1080p gaming you should get an RX 570 or a GTX 1060 anyway. This one's attached to an older 720p TV and does very well in e-sports titles. Most AAA titles can be played at lower to mid settings. The most demanding titles will display but won't play well. It need's a dedicated power connector because of t's power requirements so check your power supply to make sure it's big enough. I needed a budget priced card to give a handed down gaming PC some punch for my son on his TV (I kept my GTX 1070 for me). This works great. If his TV (monitor) was 1080p I would have gotten a higher end card.

I was very impressed with this 100 dollar card. I was able to play the new Doom on high settings at a decent frame rate. Plays pre 2015 games on high or gamer settings.

easy to install and drivers download automatically with a few clicks. did not help my old computer though so i decided to return and purchase newer computer with better cpu

I needed a card to drive a new 4K monitor I purchased, and this one fits the bill. If I had one gripe about it, the card could have come with two display ports instead of only one. However, the quality is good, it runs very quietly, and the output quality is terrific.
