RX460 and GTX950.

skim a lot more than 1500 yuan of high-end card, I believe that about 1000 yuan graphics card is some light game players and ordinary consumers the best choice, and look at the current market on the sale of the thousand-level graphics cards, in addition to Nvidia GTX950 on the non-AMD RX460 mo; Below we pass some examples to see these two chips which is superior to the inferior, hopes to give the thousand yuan buys the card User a reference.

Nonsense not to say, or first to see the two sides of the war graphics card, because the market basically can't buy these two chips of the public version card, so we can only filter the Non-public version of the card as a representative, this will be more close to the real purchase situation.

AMD RX460 The aspect is the Sapphire RX460 Ultra Platinum OC.

This top AIB Sapphire RX460 products using 14nm technology, 4G video memory and a new Polaris architecture, is a representative of one of the Non-public RX460.

NVIDIA GTX950 side of the selection of the higher sales of the Rainbow iGame950 flame Ares U.

As a representative product of GTX950, high 1329MHz frequency, 2G video memory, using IPP inductance digital power supply, dustproof reinforcement backplane, intelligent stop turn, a key overclocking, silver anti-aging, direct-contact heat pipe cooling, electricity quotes are basically in 1099 yuan, and the current RX460 price is quite!

At the same time, in order to let everyone have a more intuitive understanding, we in the following test also added Nvidia gtx750ti as a reference; After the gossip, the next step into the test.

Test Platform Description

Platform Description: Test platform for the use of consumer-level platform z170+6700k Ding, the test selected a total of three graphics cards for comparison testing, respectively, Sapphire RX460 Super Platinum OC, Rainbow iGame950 flame ares U and nvidia gtx750ti, Drive aspect for the latest AMD Crimson Edition 16.8.2 and nvidia Forceware 372.70 WHQL.

3DMark Theoretical test:

3DMark Theoretical test Part we use 3DMark the latest version of DirectX 12 for game PC benchmark time spy and traditional benchmark project fire Strike Extreme, below to see the results.

Theoretical Test Summary: In the 3DMark two theoretical performance test, Sapphire RX460 Ultra Platinum OC significantly lead the gtx750ti naturally needless to say, run the performance is very close to seven rainbow iGame950 flame Ares U, especially in time spy the DX12 benchmark test.

Let's see how the three popular gaming experience is:

Comments: You can see that sapphire RX460 Super Platinum OC in the "Killer 6" This original support DX12 game has been able to surpass the Rainbow iGame950 flame Ares U, and in the theoretical test, the former is a little bit lower than the latter, This only means that in practical applications RX460 support for DX12 will be better than GTX950, while in the other two games, the performance of the two is not the same, in addition, the three game Test RX460 are significantly ahead of the gtx750ti will not too much to repeat.

Take a look at the platform power consumption:

In order to restore the players ' various usage scenarios, the total platform work (not just the power of the video card) was measured in these three cases, respectively, FurMark (full graphics card), full game (when playing the game), and standby status.

Summarize:

Combining some of the above tests we can get some conclusions:

First of all, RX460 than GTX950 the biggest advantage is the video memory, 4G obviously exist in the face of mainstream games, such as: GTA5, such as still some tight, Mo said GTX950 only 2 G!

Second, absolute performance is GTX950 better, but a lot of data show that AMD the entire next generation of Polaris Architecture RX460 new card in DX12 support than GTX950, such as Maxwell old card better, can foresee more DX12 new games for the future better compatibility.

Third, power consumption is lower, energy efficiency is higher! Thanks to this generation of Polaris Advanced architecture and 14NM of the latest technology, AMD RX series of new cards in the power control has been greatly improved, has reached beyond the Maxwell level.

In short, gtx750ti has not known to buy, and RX460 and GTX950, how would you choose?
