Radeon RX 480 vs Radeon RX 7600 XT comparison

For gaming, the Radeon RX 7600 XT graphics card is better than the Radeon RX 480 in our tests.

Furthermore, the spec sheet for both these GPUs show that the Radeon RX 7600 XT has significantly more memory with 16 GiB of memory compared to 8 GiB. If you're planning at playing games at high resolutions with high-quality textures, you will need a lot of memory.

In addition, the Radeon RX 480 has a slightly lower TDP at 150 W when compared to the Radeon RX 7600 XT at 190 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 7600 XT is faster than the Radeon RX 480.
