Verdict
Our verdict on the RX 460
A low-profile budget card that sips power and fits small cases, but its 2 GB memory chokes modern games.
Get it if you need a tiny, low-power card for an old office PC to play eSports or indie games. Skip it if you want to run modern titles or have more than a single monitor.
Buy it if…
- You want a cheap, low-power eSports machine for 1080p gaming.
- You need a GPU that runs on slot power alone with no extra cables.
- You're building a tiny HTPC that can play older or indie games smoothly.
