Having already checked out the AMD R9 280X and AMD R9 270X for today's launch it is now time to take a look at something from the mainstream R7 series and in particular we have the R7 260X with us in this review. The AMD R7 260X is another of AMD's "new" graphics cards that is actually based on a rehashed card from the HD 7000 series. In particular the R7 260X we have here today is AMD's $139.99 offering based on the HD 7790. In fact it is more or less identical to the HD 7790 which came to market at about $150 when it was released but can now be had for as low as $115. That said the R7 260X does bring some improvements such as 2GB of GDDR5 as standard (instead of that being a more expensive luxury like it was on the HD 7790) and higher clock speeds.
AMD launch a new series of video cards today. The first we look at is the Radeon R7 260X 2GB - let's dive in and see how it does in our gaming tests.
Of all the R7 and R9 series cards that were released today, the AMD Radeon R7 260X is the most intriguing for a variety of reasons. This card is essentially a re-brand of the AMD Radeon HD 7790 with some unlocked goodies that were previously unknown. For example the Bonaire XT GPU used on the AMD Radeon HD 7790 was the first GPU to feature AMD TrueAudio and advanced CrossFire technologies. Read on to find out more and to see if the AMD Radeon R7 260X is faster than the GeForce GTX 650 TI BOOST!
Last week AMD unveiled its new series of graphics cards. We tested the first batch of new cards, consisting of the R7 260X, R9 270X and R9 280X. In this review you'll find all benchmark results, frametimes and – for the faster cards - EyeFinity benchmarks.
Mit Radeon R7 260X, R9 270X und R9 280X lässt AMD die ersten „Volcanic Islands“-Grafikkarten von der Leine. Mehr als ein Aufguss aktueller Modell sind diese allerdings nicht.
Die AMD Radeon R9 270 geht für 160 Euro an den Start und löst die Radeon HD 7850 ab. Sie soll Nvidias GeForce GTX 660 bei Preis und Leistung schlagen
AMD has made the Radeon R9 270 very affordable. When you compare it to the GeForce GTX 660, the new AMD card is faster in the majority of benchmarks. The frame times are very similar. And if you are able to find an R9 270 for the official recommended price of £140, it's clear AMD offers the most value for your money. And if you also manage to find one with the Battlefield 4 coupon, then it's an amazing deal.
When it comes to discrete graphics, the $199 price point is known as the gamer’s sweet spot by both AMD and NVIDIA. This is arguably the front line in the battle for your money when it coming to gaming graphics cards. The AMD Radeon R9 270X is AMD’s offering to gamers at this competitive price point. Read on to see how it performs!
As you may already know AMD's new series of graphics cards are officially launched today and we have here for you the AMD Radeon R9 270X review, but we've also checked out the R9 280X and R7 260X of which you can see reviews of both on our site's main homepage, or by searching in the search bar if you're reading this some time after publication. We have managed to get our hands on a reference AMD R9 270X, a card which is essentially an overclocked HD 7870 brought to market at a lower price point than the HD 7870 originally was.
The specifications can be seen below and a clock speed of 1050MHz on the core and 5600MHz on the memory is a fair bit higher than the 1000MHz and 4800MHz the AMD HD 7870 offered. The higher clock speeds mean the R9 270X is capable of 2.69 TFLOPS over the 2.56 TFLOPS offered by the HD 7870. Like with all new AMD RX-2XX series graphics cards there is Direct X 11.2 support, OpenGL 4.3 support and support for AMD's new API mantle. AMD have opted for a price point of $199 MSRP for the R9 270X meaning it is actually priced roughly the same as the HD 7870 currently is (the HD 7870 is currently priced to clear so stocks won't last long) but when the HD 7870 originally came to market it retailed for $349 - so this is $149 cheaper.
Following the testing of the new Radeon R7 260X 2GB, we move into the higher-end R9 270X 2GB. This review also introduces Battlefield 4 testing.
