ASUS announce their new RX 500 series of Strix GPUs
Â
ASUS have now announced their new RX 500 series of Strix GPUs, all of which feature factory overclocks that are higher than their RX 400 series counterparts.Â
Â
Below is a table comparing the clock speeds of ASUS’ RX 580/70 Strix series of GPU compared to their highest clocked RX 480/70 series counterparts, with AMD’s new RX 500 series GPUs coming with much higher core clock speeds.Â
Â
ASUS’ Strix series coolers remain largely unchanged, coming with the same AURA RGB features and some minor design tweaks for optimal cooling performance. If it ain’t broke, optimise it.Â
