RX 460 2GB is such a underated card!

LondonGuff

I bought a RX 460 and a pre builted pc... And it runs incredibly well! At 720p but still! It runs most games at a nice 60 fps! And for a whopping 60 us dollars you can get that card too! I'm just really happy with it! My entire PC including my gpu was 260 dollars. So if you don't have much and don't make much I highly recommend doing this! It's a great way to play games on a budget!

1080p has 125% more pixles so that's to be expected.

used, that is. You can get more with even older cards at the cost of power draw and heat, say the HD7950.

I picked an HP RX 460 brand new last year for about that much. I don't use it for gaming, but it went into my workstation at my office and does a fine job in the software I use. They are all over the place, I think they were one of the cards offered in the Omen line and HP just bought a lot more than they needed.

 

They have roughly the same performance as a standard GTX 750ti, and those go for more than $60 used most of the time.

My Current Setup:

AMD Ryzen 5900X

Kingston HyperX Fury 3200mhz 2x16GB

MSI B450 Gaming Plus

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

EVGA RTX 3060 Ti XC

Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB

WD 5400RPM 2TB

EVGA G3 750W

Corsair Carbide 300R

Arctic Fans 140mm x4 120mm x 1
