AMD Radeon RX 460 - The Ultimate Low Power eSports Card

The Radeon RX 460 replaces the Radeon R7 260 and Radeon R7 360 series cards. This card features 896 stream processors which deliver around ii TFLOPs of compute performance. The carte comes with 2 GB of GDDR5 VRAM which is due to its low-cost and eSports focused nature. The carte has been designed to evangelize best feel in MOBA and eSports titles. In comparisons made by AMD, they exam the Radeon RX 460 against an R7 260X at same settings on 1080p resolution.
