AMD Radeon RX 480 Clock Speeds Revealed, Clocked Above 1.2 GHz
Here are the clock speeds of the Radeon RX 480. Like the GeForce "Pascal," AMD "Polaris" GPUs love to run at speeds way above the 1 GHz mark. The Radeon RX 480 features an engine clock of 1266 MHz, while its memory is clocked at 2000 MHz (actual), or 8 GHz (GDDR5-effective).

Still, this might be a good card at 200-250 $, beating the 970/980 and 390(X).
Use the proper Giga and Mega hertz.
I just had to complain :D
The card is awesome just because of the price. Okay the next question... does it clock like mad?
This will be the card in my dad's rig for sure, the price point looks unbeatable. replace his old 270X.
"way above 1GHz" by AMD: 1200MHz+. ehm.. ok..
But let us not be so hasty... the price bubble will be really strong as many users will upgrade to the new cards. Street prices will be unpleasant.
As for prices - if the supply is good I think they'll stray reasonable.
Did 380 and 380x have the same ID?
Here we go again, lol.
Looks promising! Definitely a price/performance card.
Non cross fire it is between 980 and Fury (non Ti and non-X)
My guess is AMD is waiting to see how the GTX 1060 performs before finalizing the clocks for the 480. Hence the 29th June NDA and on shelf date. Or they release the 480, and later the 480x to compete with the GTX 1060. Either way a 1060 Ti will be on the way.
The crossfire does actually make sense, becauese. it was already better than the 1080 in crossfire and a heavily AMD favoured game. In other neutral title or nvidia ones, it might be lagging or be similar.
