PowerColor Red Devil RX 590 Review
Test Setup and Overclocking

Test Setup
PowerColor Red Devil RX 590
Intel i7 6850K
ASUS X99 Strix
Corsair ROG Dominator Platinum 3200
Corsair RM1000i
Corsair LX 512GB OS
Corsair LS 480GB x2 Raid0 Games
Corsair H100i V2
Windows 10
Overclocking
As always with the PowerColor Devil range the card comes out of the box with a decent factory overclock, but the cooling is more than sufficient that we can push the card a bit further, upping the GPU clock from 1576 MHz to 1656 MHz. At this end of the market such gains can reward you, so let's discover how the RX 590 performs.

Agreed, a 56 would be better but once you get to a 56 you can they argue about a 1070 and its never ending. 56's also require more power and better cooling blah blah blah
For the money this is a cracking 1080p card and would respond well to a freesync monitor too. Out of the two Ive tested this is by far the better option of the two.Quote
£30 lower for me. It'll happen too I reckon
But yeah agreed, still a great little card. Must also bear in mind this is like top end (well, other than the Strix LOL edition that is no doubt inbound lol).Quote

That will probably cost more than that 56 unless they uuse the older style coolerQuote
haha no doubt dude. It'll probably cost as much as a cheap 1070.
Hopefully they will use the older cheaper cooler though, kinda like the one on the GTX 970 that actually wasn't that expensive at all.Quote
