About the AMD Radeon RX 580 GPU
The AMD Radeon RX 580 is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2017 with a MSRP of $229. It is built on the GCN 4.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Polaris 20) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.
Memory
The RX 580 has 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 2,000 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 256 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The RX 580 includes 2,304 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,257 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,340 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 144 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The RX 580 occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 185 W.
About the AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP GPU
The AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q4 2018. It is built on the GCN 4.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Polaris 20) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.
Memory
The RX 580 2048SP has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 224 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The RX 580 2048SP includes 2,048 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,168 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,284 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 128 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 32 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The RX 580 2048SP occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 150 W.
