Does the AMD RX 560 still hold up?

[TechyWinkie]

I have been using my PC for 4 years now, it's showing signs of age, and my graphics card used to be pretty fast during that time running my favorite games at 100 FPS. Is the RX 560 still a good standard for today's graphics cards?

it depends on what you do really

if you play the same game forever, then it'll be good forever

 

personally still using an RX460 to play games occasionally on my secondary PC

Don't really understand the question. It's vastly inferior to current generation cards, and even some last generation cards for that matter, but the only question that every really matters is: is it good enough for you? If all you do is play CS:GO and LoL, sure, it's great. If you're wanting to play modern AAA titles at higher than low settings, probably not so much.

The 460/560 and 1050 have become the new 750 Ti. Solid little cards available cheap on the used market and capable of handling last-gen games at mid-details 1080p.

Yeah I meant playing new AAA titles like ones from Ubisoft or some other big game right now. Thank you for answering the question though!
