SAPPHIRE & Asus getting their version of 590 ready

ROG STRIX model is clearly in the works, so the ‘GPP brand’ might be axed soon. The full product code for the new graphics card: ASUS Radeon RX 590 ROG STRIX GAMING (ROG-STRIX-RX590-8G-GAMING)

Unsurprisingly Sapphire took the same path and the company is set to introduce their NITRO+ design with a massive fin array for 12nm Radeon RX 590. The card will feature 2304 Stream Processors and 8GB of GDDR5 memory. A refined Polaris architecture will now use a 12nm fabrication process.

RX 590 First Leaked Final Fantasy XV Benchmark 

A lot of AMD GPUs including the RX 590 have been found on Final Fnatasy XV’s benchmark page by Videocardz. The RX 590 performs better then or equal to the GTX 1060 6GB. In the 2560×1440 High benchmarks the RX 590 scored a 3,570 while the Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB got a 3,595. This is within the margin of error but it is bad news for AMD as the GTX 1060 6GB only costs $270 while the RX 590 is rumored to cost $300.

Unless the benchmarks are fake or the price is decreased, AMD will have trouble competing with Nvidia’s GTX 1060. These benchmarks could have been done with prototype versions of the RX 590 so the performance could be better when the final GPU is out
