The likes of <em>League of Legends<\/em>, <em>Dota 2<\/em>, and <em>Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/em> dominate Twitch and Steam charts alike. There are a lot of reasons for their success, but the fact that they run on virtually any PC doesn\u2019t hurt. Heck, you can even run e-sports games\u2014including <em>Overwatch<\/em>\u2014on an AMD APU\u2019s integrated graphics if you\u2019re okay with modest frame rates at lower resolutions.<\/p>\n<p>AMD\u2019s affordable new Radeon RX 550 is designed for folks who want more e-sports eye candy without breaking the bank, at $80 on Newegg.<\/p>\n<p>Higher frame rates and resolutions mean you can see more, faster, and that extra performance can spell the difference between winning and losing in the world of competitive gaming. AMD\u2019s latest Radeon lets you crank those graphics settings. Also, it includes all the helpful ecosystem conveniences found in the rest of the Radeon RX 500-series. Such as native broadcasting support with Radeon Crimson ReLive and FreeSync monitor compatibility. In addition, modern media technologies that could make the Radeon RX 550 a hit with home theater PC enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>We haven\u2019t seen a graphics card serve the ultra-budget market in <em>years.<\/em> But is a graphics card this cut-down worthwhile? Yes&#8230;and no.<\/p>\n<h2>Meet the Radeon RX 550<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ll find all the hardcore technical specs for this graphics card in the chart below, but in sum they\u2019re half that of the already modest $100 RX 560, which is launching in early May as the final release in AMD\u2019s new Radeon RX 500 series. It\u2019s one-quarter the GPU inside the $170 Radeon RX 570.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Radeon RX 550 Specs\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techhive.com\/images\/article\/2017\/04\/specs-100718687-large.jpg\" alt=\"Specs\" width=\"700\" height=\"809\" \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>AMD\u2019s Radeon RX 550 graphics card specs.<\/h3>\n<p>The Radeon RX 550\u2019s Polaris GPU packs a mere 8 compute units and 512 stream processors, but you don\u2019t need much horsepower to drive e-sports or home theater PCs. It hums along at a 1,100MHz base\/1,183MHz boost clock, married to 2GB of GDDR5 memory with a 128-bit bus. (4GB models will also be available in limited numbers.) Those modest internals demand only modest amounts of power, however. The Radeon RX 550 is powered completely via your motherboard\u2019s PCIe slot, with no extra power cables required. That\u2019s a big deal for folks wanting more oomph from an existing PCs\u2014likely a sizable portion of this card\u2019s target audience.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Radeon RX 550 polaris streaming features\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techhive.com\/images\/article\/2017\/04\/polaris-streaming-features-100718686-large.jpg\" alt=\"polaris streaming features\" width=\"700\" height=\"340\" \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Media features in AMD\u2019s Polaris GPU.<\/h3>\n<p>Besides e-sports gaming capabilities, which are bolstered by compatibility with affordable FreeSync variable refresh rate displays, the Radeon RX 550 offers support for modern media technologies. The HDMI 2.0b and DisplayPort 1.4 connections can handle 4K resolution and high-dynamic-range video, while the GPU\u2019s capable of HEVC encoding and decoding. That makes this tiny graphics card an intriguing option for a home theater PC.<\/p>\n<p>AMD says to expect low-profile versions of the Radeon RX 550 \u201cshortly after\u201d launch, which would certainly suit itty-bitty HTPCs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Radeon RX 550 dsc01710\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techhive.com\/images\/article\/2017\/04\/dsc01710-100718681-large.jpg\" alt=\"Radeon RX 550 dsc01710\" width=\"700\" height=\"466\" \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This version is full height. It isn\u2019t as small as most 3GB GeForce GTX 1060 cards. Instead the PowerColor Red Devil Radeon RX 550 uses the same basic cooling solution as PowerColor\u2019s RX 460. Although, with a single fan and a plastic shroud over a small heatsink reminiscent of a stock CPU cooler. That\u2019s not surprising. AMD didn\u2019t create a reference version for any of the Radeon RX 500 series. And with the Radeon RX 550 being so cheap, we\u2019d expect to see a lot of cooler reuse from manufacturers, especially in the first wave of products.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"Radeon RX 550\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techhive.com\/images\/article\/2017\/04\/dsc01712-100718683-large.jpg\" alt=\"Radeon RX 550\" width=\"700\" height=\"466\" \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Port report.<\/h3>\n<p>You\u2019ll find single connections for the aforementioned HDMI and DisplayPorts, as well as DVI-D, which is officially eradicated from AMD\u2019s reference lineup but damned handy for older and entry-level monitors serving this price range.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>The Radeon RX 550 delivers tremendous value to e-sports gamers and home theater PC owners, but high pricing compared to the RX 560 renders it borderline irrelevant.<\/p>\n<h4>Pros<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Huge e-sports performance leap over integrated graphics<\/li>\n<li>Cool and quiet<\/li>\n<li>Offers modern ecosystem and media features<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Cons<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>No small form factor versions at launch<\/li>\n<li>Priced too high<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/3190695\/components-graphics\/amd-radeon-rx-550-review-a-thrilling-budget-graphics-card-with-a-perplexing-price.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/universaldatasystems.org\/shop\/product-category\/components\/video\/\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-glass\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#2D89EF;border-color:#246ec0;border-radius:5px\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Universal Data Systems Graphics Cards\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:6px 16px;font-size:13px;line-height:20px;border-color:#6cadf4;border-radius:5px;text-shadow:0px 0px 8px #000000\"><i class=\"sui sui-database\" style=\"font-size:13px;color:#FFFFFF\"><\/i> More Graphics Cards<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<a id=\"wpmem_reg_link\" class=\"wpmem-reg-link\" href=\"https:\/\/universaldatasystems.org\/shop\/uds-registration\/?redirect_to=https:\/\/universaldatasystems.org\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2678\/\"> Register to receive special deals! <\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h2>Meet the Radeon RX 550<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ll find all the hardcore technical specs for this graphics card in the chart below, but in sum they\u2019re half that of the already modest $100 RX 560, which is launching in early May as the final release in AMD\u2019s new Radeon RX 500 series.
