AMD’s Polaris-based RX Series graphics cards have launched in South Africa, and are aimed at the low-to-mid range PC gaming market.<\/p>\n

The Radeon RX 480 offers gaming enthusiasts the opportunity to experience affordable VR with its stellar price-to-performance ratio.<\/p>\n

While the Radeon RX 470 and RX 460 are both relatively powerful, they lack the VR capabilities of the flagship Polaris GPU, focussing instead on “brilliant Full HD gaming” and eSPorts performance\u00a0respectively.<\/p>\n
