Here it is. Another beast card from the Asus is here for the review. :) While I was hoping that it would be their Top Edition but it is OC edition. But, this time I have the privilege of doing its review before WCCFTech. Here are some pics. Will share the link when the review will be live. I have already submitted Rx 480 OC review. It will be live tonight. Gigabyte series cards arriving next week.

How much is the performance gain/difference between Asus Strix Rx 480 & Asus Strix Rx 580?

is it worth the upgrade over previous gen Rx 480!

Not in my opinion.Wait for the review for all the details.
Hmm i won't count on it! as i'm a Nvidia user, i had two AMD RX 480 variants Asus Strix and XFX GTR Black Edition gpu's while both GPU on their own were fine, but they were plagued/accompanied by poor Driver support and Green screen of death etc! as a result i sold and got Nvidia 1060 gpu, and now all has been working flawlessly!

While I have absolutely no complaint with the Rx 480, Rx 580 gave me the heck of a time and drivers were playing badly, to say the least. My one night was lost figuring that out. You would find the details in the review.

i had pretty similar experience as you had with Rx 580, that's why i probably switched back to Nvidia gpu's. They always have lower temps & power consumption and stable performance as compared to AMD gpu's :)

Not always though. We can't generalize in such a manner. But I wonder what was Asus thinking while sending this review sample which is silicon bad luck!

Hmm now that is an intriguing statement...
Nah, I have no complaints with the AMD hardware that I have tested or used so far. But this complaint with Asus is rational. Companies tend to send their best cards to the reviewers but this one, welp. Review will tell the tale.

may be it was just a review sample and not the actual final finished product, which they sent you!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
