Is the RX480 hot?

Who needs space heaters when you got the 480 both amd and nividia models

>>58053757
the 480 is fine

>>58053757
Why don't you spend 5 minutes on the internet doing your own research instead of posting on a board that is infested with Nvidia trolls.

rx480 temps are fine, but avoid the gigabyte g1 rx480 because something is wrong with their heatsink.

>>58053757
as hot as your mom

>>58053990
I tried but I couldn't find a clear answer. I also don't come to this board often so I don't know about the nvidia fags

>>58054062
RX480 is fine, just try and avoid the G1 by Gigabyte, as >>58054032 said

Thanks guys, I was going to go with the 1060 until I saw the civ 6/doom newegg sale

free game of your choice with certain cards

>>58053757
Depends on cooler. TDP is slightly below something like a 1070. Or GTX 970.

>>58053757
My Asus Strix reaches up to 65C. It does have three fans so maybe another manufacture will be just a little above that.

>>58054158
thanks m8. This will be my first gaming pc build

There is nothing wrong with the Gigabyte Radeon RX 480 G1 Gaming. All the review sites say it's one of the best RX 480.

ehh.... It's not very good.
The PCB design is worse than all other manufacturers, so you're more likely to have a VRM failure.

>>58053757
I have the MSI Gaming X one, it idles around 36C and reaches 60-65C on max load on a custom fan curve. Pretty cool and quiet card

>>58054309
lol the 480 stock throttles at 90C
meanwhile the fan doesn't start until like 70C
and its target is 85C
by the time the fan kicks in it's already throttling, and the fan never gets fast enough to actually keep it cool

sure it's quiet, but the throttle issues wreck havoc when gaymen.

Depends which you buy. Reference from either Nvidia or AMD tend to run hot.
This is with a 20% baseline fan curve. By default this rx 480 only kicks its fans on at 60C.

>>58053757
sapphire rx 480 4gb is fine for me. 1080p titanfall 2/dark souls 3 max settings and it sits at anywhere fom 50-60c depending on whats going on.

Stock RX 480 here.

-30mv, 1310 core and 2200 memory.

Stays below 75c even with the factory fan curve.

>>58058033
my 480 nitro at -50mv and those settings runs around 65-70c

they seem to have good tolerance for undervolting so give it a go and see what you can get outta it.

>>58058033

>Thinks he has a "cool" graphic card which is 15 degrees hotter and 10 db louder than 10xx cards from Nvidia

AaayMD everyone.

>>58053757
XFX GTR (black aswell) RX480 is supposed to be the best 480 cards if reviews are anything.

>Stock clock lower than advertised while running at 68 degrees.
>50+ on core below 1400

All 480RX that were hitting 1500 had to be swapped to water cooling while also winning silicon lottery.

My strix is 65-70c under 100% load, with lower fan speeds than stock setting.

Useless card

>>58053757
msi rx480 gaming x 8GB owner here.

It does get hot, but not more than the 1060 or any other high end card. And it has kick ass coolers to prevent any issues.

Your room will not get hot.

when will that fad die?
rgb kits are dirt cheap.
