RX 560

Release date: Q2 2017.

VS

Average Bench: 31% (109th of 620)

Based on 24,570 user benchmarks.  Device: 1002 67FF Models: Radeon RX 560, AMD Radeon (TM) RX 560, Radeon(TM) RX 560 Graphics, AMD Radeon(TM) RX 560, ASUS Radeon RX 560

The Radeon RX 560 is third in the line up of AMD’s second generation Polaris GPUs aimed at the entry-level 1080p gaming market with a sub-$100 launch price, due for release in May 2017. It is the successor to the now nine month old RX 460. Like the RX 460, it is based on Polaris 11, but comes with all 16 compute units enabled (2 more than in the 460). Coupled with a 6% improvement in boost clock speed from 1200MHz to 1275MHz, a minimum increase in overall effective speed of 10% against the 460 is anticipated. The RX 560 is fresh competition to NVIDIA’s GTX 1050 in terms of price and performance. User benchmarks reveal that NVIDIA’s GTX 1050 is faster than the RX 460 by 17% and so it is expected that the 560 will close most, if not all, of that gap. [May '17 GPUPro]

Poor average bench

The AMD RX 560 averaged 69.0% lower than the peak scores attained by the group leaders. This isn't a great result which indicates that there are much faster alternatives on the comparison list.

Strengths

Avg. Locally-deformable PRT (Bat) 80.9fps
Avg. NBody particle system (Galaxy) 87.8fps

Very good consistency

The range of scores (95th - 5th percentile) for the AMD RX 560 is just 11.4%. This is a relatively narrow range which indicates that the AMD RX 560 performs reasonably consistently under varying real world conditions.

Weaknesses

Avg. High dynamic range lighting (Teapot) 79.6fps
Avg. Force Splatted Flocking (Swarm) 77.6fps

I think that it overclock's pretty good, and when overclocked it can run titles like the witcher 3 at 60 fps, what else would you need? In short I think this is a very underrated gpu.

Because the RX560 is basically a re-branded and slightly more powerful GT 1030

With cheapest RX 570 costing you 150 USD now, this GPU poses very poor value for performance. Very good GPU when bought at when cryptocurrency mining was a thing though but it's no longer.

I have two of these ladies set up in crossfire and they play every game I like just fine on virtual super resolution when slightly overclocked. They work really well with my AOC freesync monitor @75hz, and the temperature stay well below 50 celcius. I'm happy.

This card, at its high price, costs MORE than the GTX 1050, and is still slower and worse! Don't buy RX cards if you want the "best bang for your buck."
