PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Expr

Product information: Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card The PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 with semi-passive dual-fan cooler reaches a maximum clock of 1.350 MHz. The 8 GB of GDDR5 VRAM is clocked at 4.000 MHz (8.000 MHz effective) and is connected via a 256-Bit memory interface to the GPU. An 8-Pin power connector supplies the 25,5 cm long graphics card with power and a power supply capable of delivering 500 Watts is recommended. The PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 provides a basic dual-fan cooler which allows the RX 580 to reach a strong boost clock of 1.350 MHz. For improved stability and an equal distribution of weight from the heatsink, the RX 580 Red Dragon V2 offers a backplate that enables slightly improved cooling at the rear of the PCB. The Features of the PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2: Semi-passive basic dual-fan cooler Boost clock max. 1.350 MHz 8 GB GDDR5 VRAM Memory frequency: 4.000 MHz (8.000 MHz effective) 1× 8-Pin power connector VR Ready The AMD Radeon RX 580 in Detail The Polaris graphics chips of the Radeon RX 500 series are manufactured using the new optimised 14 nm FinFET-LPP process, which allows the performance in comparison to the RX 400 series to be increased. With 2.304 Shader Units, the same number as that of the Radeon RX 480, the Radeon RX 580 still delivers almost 10 percent more computational power in comparison to its direct predecessor. The reason for this performance increase lies in the process optimisations that have enabled increased boost clock speeds. The Polaris 20 chip used in the Radeon RX 580 is similar to the Polaris 10 with the exception of the boost clock speeds, and it profits from the 4th gen Graphics Core Next architecture (GCN 1.3). Some of the innovative features within the Polaris architecture include, among other things, a new command processor, a geometry processor, new multimedia cores, an optimised display engine as well as an improved memory controll...
