Using the average frame rate data presented earlier in the review, here we look at the cost per frame using the current UK retail prices for each GPU. Please note, UK pricing for the A580 is unconfirmed at the time of publication. The below data is based on two hypothetical price-points for this GPU (£179 and £199).

Just to give you an idea of value, depending on the price the A580 lands at, we have inputted data based on it coming to market at either £179 or £199 – of course we will have to wait and see for the actual figure!

Still, at 1080p, even if the A580 hit the UK market at £179, it would only be on par with the RX 6600, which has fallen as low as £190 in recent months. If the A580 comes in at £199, even the RX 7600 would be better value.

That does change at 1440p, where the A580 scales better, but not every game is playable at this resolution without dropping image quality settings by a fair degree.
