THE RX560 AND GT1030 - NEW BUDGET GRAPHICS CARDS FROM AMD AND NVIDIA
Budget gamers rejoice, for there are some new cheap GPUs for you to enjoy. AMD has quietly launched the Radeon RX560, which it pitches as a cost and power effective way to enjoy various Esports titles such as Overwatch, with 2.5 times the performance of the previous Radeon R7 360 at 1080p with medium quality settings. 2GB versions of the RX560 should sell for around $150-$160. But if that’s too expensive for you, Nvidia’s got your back. The GT 1030 is a graphics card based on the same Pascal architecture as the GTX 1080 and designed to be a step up from the integrated graphics on Intel CPUs, with Nvidia claiming double the performance of Intel’s HD Graphics 530. The GT 1030 will have a price of around $100-$120 and is in stores now.
