Sapphire Nitro+ RX 470 OC Graphics Card Review

The Vulkan API greatly benefits AMD graphics cards and this is certainly the case for the RX 470. When playing the game on a 1080p display, the frame-rate is extremely high and doesn’t have any substantial dips. Saying that, the GPU trails the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 480 OC by a surprisingly large amount.
After increasing the resolution to 2560×1440, the graphics card upholds a perfectly respectable frame-rate and has enough performance to please the average end-user.
Even when paired with a 4K monitor, the frame-rate doesn’t plummet and you should be able to achieve 60 with reduced settings. Also, the graphics card maintains its slim lead over the ASUS STRIX GAMING GTX 1060.
