AMD Radeon RX 590 and Radeon RX 580 Rumored To Get Price Cuts In The Coming Weeks – Prices Down To $229 US and $199 US, Respectively
It was .. recently rumored that AMD might be introducing their Radeon [7nm] Navi GPUs in July aiming the mainstream segment so it’s highly likely that they are clearing inventory of Polaris cards before the arrival of next-gen parts.
Both cards have the same GPU configuration of 2304 stream processors, 144 TMUs and 32 ROPs. Both cards even feature the same memory configuration of 8 GB GDDR5 VRAM .. the RX 590 utilizes the 12nm process to deliver clock speeds of up to 1545 MHz.
Today, Newegg has three RX580 models on sale for $190 (one adds a $20 rebate) with two free games (ostensibly worth over $100).
