AMD’s Radeon RX 590 graphics card is up to 9 percent faster than Geforce GTX 1060

AMD will probably come with the RX 590 GPU and benchmarks of this card seem to have appeared for Final Fantasy XV. This shows that the card is about 9 percent faster than the Geforce GTX 1060. According to rumors, Asus and PowerColor, among others, will come with a version.

According to the Videocardz website, which claims to be relying on benchmarks from the Final Fantasy XV website, the RX 590 is a relatively larger improvement over the existing RX 580 when compared to the RX 480’s performance jump to the RX 580. Based on qhd and 4k resolutions and different graphic settings, the RX 590 scored on average about 12 percent higher than the RX 580. With the Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060, that advantage of the RX 590 is on average more than 6 percent, where the difference is more than 9 percent on 4k and with the graphics settings on standard.

Videocardz also reports that PowerColor will come with an RX 590 video card. It would be the RX 590 Red Devil, which appears to be identical in design to the existing Red Devil variant of the RX 580. The new card would also occupy three slots and use the same cooler with two fans, where the cooling block has heat pipes of 8 mm.

In October there was already a rumor that Asus with a RoG Strix model of the RX 590, which is presumably 8GB of vram. The Radeon RX 590 GPU would be based on the current RX 580, but have a slightly higher clock speed. It is not yet clear when AMD will announce its Radeon RX 590 GPU.
