AMD reveals specs for Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 that will launch in early August

AMD has already undercut the competition with its Radeon RX 480 graphics card starting at $200, but the company is looking to go after the mainstream even harder with its next two releases.

The Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 video cards are due out August 4 and August 8, respectively, and AMD knows exactly the kind of consumer it wants to hit these new GPUs. While the 480 is for the gamer looking for top-quality HD gaming and virtual reality experiences, the 470 is for the gamer who wants to run most new releases at full 1080p HD and 60 frames per second without the extra horsepower required for running a head-mounted display like the Oculus Rift. The 460, meanwhile, is for “esports gaming.” It is a compact chip that can handle games like Rocket League, Overwatch, and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive with no problems on high settings.
