The RX 590 is almost here.

NITRO+ in a Special Edition

SO it seem's that board partners are opting for the best cooling solution they have when it comes to the new Radeon RX 590, but I don't blame them. While PowerColor decided to use their RX 580 Red Devil Golden Sample cooler design (the beefy one) and ASUS are planning to equip their triple-fan STRIX cooler for the ‘new’ Radeon RX 590 (no surprise there!).

It's not surprising Sapphire took the same path and the company is set to introduce their NITRO+ design with massive fin array to the 12nm Radeon RX 590. In my opinion it's a wise decision! Although the Blue won't be to everyone's taste it sure is mine.

The new card will feature 2304 Stream Processors and 8GB of GDDR5 memory. A refined Polaris architecture will now use a 12nm fabrication process to give it even more grunt Although the clock speeds are yet to be confirmed at this time, but we will keep you updated once we hear more of course.

The Radeon RX 590 is currently expected to launch on November 15th 2018 and let us hope it can stand toe to toe with the 1080 after all.
