AMD’s Radeon RX 590 review-in-progress — Your next upgrade

When assessing PC hardware, you will usually fall into one of two schools of thought. The first is how a device competes in a battle with other products. The second is how well a device will meet your specific needs. The former is more popular because humans love comparisons and numbers, but the latter is more important for determining whether you’ll regret your purchase or not. For the AMD Radeon RX 590, the comparisons will help you make your decision, but it’s not why you’ll end up loving the card in everyday use.

AMD has launched this GPU today starting at $280. AMD partners XFX, Red Devil, Sapphire Nitro, and Asus each have their own RX 590 hitting the market today.
