Question 1

what memory type?

Accepted Answer

Ellesmere 4 gb ddr5

Question 2

Does this card support crossfire?

Accepted Answer

Yes, BUT - there's no real benefit to it.  You're better off spending another $70 or so on an RX 480 8GB, or if you really wanna spend north of $350, buy a GTX 1070 and never look back.

Question 3

What is the core clock on this card?  Here the listed core clock is 926 Mhz, but Gigabyte's website says 1206 Mhz, which would make more sense.

Accepted Answer

Yes the specs are kind of misleading, all RX470's have a base clock of 926 Mhz. It's the boost clock you have to look for, and this has the stock boost to 1206 Mhz. Some one needs to edit the spec's to reflect this.

Question 4

Would this drive 4 monitors at 2k resolution each?

Accepted Answer

It's currently driving on 1080 and one 1440 display for me, no problem, it supports up to 8K, supposedly.  Whether or not you can or should game at those resolutions is a very different story.
