AMD Radeon RX 460 4GB
The Radeon RX 460 stacks up well enough against Nvidia's year-old budget offerings but its small improvement in efficiency leaves us wondering how it will look beside a budget Pascal GPU. Furthermore, the budget Radeon is only attractive if you end up paying less than $120 for it.
