Most Favorable Review

Quiet, easy setup, some caveats

Sapphire 11256-57-21G Radeon RX 470 8GB GDDR5 Video Card Brown Box
Sapphire 11256-57-21G Radeon RX 470 8GB GDDR5 Video Card Brown Box

Pros: Quiet fans (so far), pretty fast, 8GB RAM, price is right, fits in my entry-level HP Pavilion 580 (with a bit of card yoga and an upgraded power supply)

Cons: Only 1 DVI out, severely limiting your display options

Overall Review: The 1 DVI out means that you're limited to a single display (unless used in Crossfire with another card). I have an extended 1080p display, which DVI does NOT support, so I get black bars on either side, but that's fine since I only really need the extended display for my work computer. If you get the right DVI-HDMI cable, you can get sound through HDMI. It's working for me, so that's cool. A great card (for the price) if you've got a single 1080x1920 display.
