Question 1

Is this a crossfire capable graphics card?

Accepted Answer

As far as I understand, AMD RX cards are capable of Crossfire through the PCI-E connectors on your motherboard, there are no Crossfire connectors on the card itself.

Question 2

I AM PLANNING TO GET THIS GPU I DON'T KNOW IF THE RGB LEDS WORK ON A GIGABYTE AORUS MOBO SO DOES ANYONE KNOW?

Accepted Answer

The LED's should work on any motherboard since they are independently controlled through the Aura software

Question 3

How does this card handle 2K monitors?

Accepted Answer

I don't have a 2K monitor, but I have ran the card at 2K resolution using the virtual super resolution feature and still able to play games like Fallout 4 and Doom at ultra settings with no issue, still 50 plus FPS. 4K drop Doom 2 28 FPS at the lowest, with a constant frame-rate around 38 240fps. Based on that, it should handle a 2K monitor without any issue.

Question 4

Does the RGB actually get white across all 3 sources (backplate, side logo, and down lights)? Had a RX480 OC model that couldn't hit white on all outputs to save it's life. ROG backplate logo was white while the side logo and down lights were freakin purple. Many people reported the ROG backplate logo as being a pink or yellowish color.

Accepted Answer

When I set mine to straight white it tends to have a slight purple  hue to it. As far as I know the 480 and 580 coolers are literally copy pasted so I think It has to do with the plastic they use for the light to go through. Mine hasn't been different colors at the same time however.
