Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is a third-person open world video game, where the player controls a ranger by the name of Talion who seeks revenge on the forces of Sauron after his family, including his wife, are killed. Players can travel across locations in the game through parkour, riding monsters, or accessing Forge Towers, which serve as fast travel points.
With test at Ultra HD 4k resolution with Ultra image settings enabled.
The engine at 4K is too demanding for these lower level cards, dropping to 20 frames per second. The extra 4GB of GDDR5 memory makes no real difference, as the RX 470 core itself itself is holding everything back.
I want to see an RX 480 XFire and MultiGPU review… Even an RX470 XFire review would be great… Zen should make it go fast…

I think you absolutely hit the nail on the head, rx470 4gb, and rx480 8gb as the only choices would have made the whole thing better and clearer for everyone. Even their own sales!
8gb pointless on a 470
wow thats just so wrong
several games already take more than 4gb.
what’s pointless is 4gb on a 480
this is not about games, rx470 have weak muscles to carry out 8gb
“this is not about games”? What do you mean with that?
You essentially always pay for GPU power. A 8GB 470 might have too much VRAM, which is useless as worstcase, yet a 4GB 480 will have unspent GPU power when you have to reduce the textures cuz of VRAM. Increasing texture quality is only limited by VRAM and has no effect on the GPU-limited framerate.
A surplus on VRAM is always better than a surplus of GPU power.
Does anybody knows if this card really support 5 independent screens at once?
Thanx in advance
RX470 is actually have same design like RX480. I’ve the Sapphire Nitro RX470 8GB OC with default clock @1260 MHz that reach 5.1 TeraFlops which is same like the stock reference RX480.
