Dive into the world of virtual reality

One of the priorities of modern, high-end graphics cards is to allow their users to become fully immersed in the impressive and absorbing world of virtual reality (VR). AMD aims to bring VR to as many customers as possible with a favourable price tag. The GPU itself has 8GB of GDDR5 memory and, with computing power of more than 5 TFLOPS, this piece will rival Pascal's NVIDIA chips, but at half the price.

Smooth gaming in 4K high resolution

Our connectivity technology has kept pace with modern developments. In addition to the upgraded HDMI 2.0b port, featuring 4K at 60fps, there are two 1.4 DisplayPort connectors. The enhanced interface can handle up to 5K (5,120 × 2,880pixels) or 8K (7,680 × 4,320pixels) at 60 frames per second. There is also the Freesync support for smooth images and HDR for great colour results. The Polaris architecture also takes H-265 acceleration up to 4K resolution, even at 60 frames per second. 

The quiet and powerful, special edition NITRO+ cooler

SAPPHIRE has been packed with the reknowned Nitro+ cooler which effectively cools the entire card, even under extreme loads. Quality components and unique technologies ensure excellent value. Despite the great performance, the cooling is extremely quiet with Fan Control III's intelligent fan speed control. There's Quick Connect for quick fan pair removal or NITRO Glow 2 RGB LED backlighting to give your setup a unique look.
