About the Radeon RX 480 8GB
Learn more about this GPU, including its specifications, performance, and mining capabilities.
The Radeon RX 480 8GB presents itself as a disciplined workhorse for mining, its strengths not sentimental but structural: born in 2016 from AMD’s Polaris 10 architecture, it carries 2,304 stream processors driven at a base clock of 1,120 MHz with boosts toward 1,266 MHz, summing to roughly 5.8 TFLOPS of raw compute; paired with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked effectively at 8,000 MHz across a 256-bit bus for 224 GB/s of bandwidth, this configuration places the card in a sweet spot for a range of memory- and compute-bound algorithms and keeps it relevant where VRAM size matters. Practically, that means the RX 480 can be steered toward different mining targets with predictable returns: measurements show roughly 19.5 MH/s on the IronFish algorithm at about 120 W draw, and around 13 MH/s for Ravencoin while consuming near 135 W, numbers that underscore its versatility across varied hashing schemes rather than single-minded specialization. Its 150 W thermal design power and single 6-pin power input frame the engineering limits miners must respect, while support for modern APIs-DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.5 and Vulkan-ensures driver maturity and cross-platform compatibility for both Windows and Linux deployments. Efficiency, however, is the decisive currency here: the RX 480 rewards methodical tuning-conservative power limits, measured undervolting, and targeted memory tuning usually yield the best hashrate-per-watt improvements without courting hardware instability; thermals and fan curves matter as much as raw clocks, since sustained loads expose weak cooling or poor case ventilation and shorten usable life. Beyond immediate numbers, the card’s age implies trade-offs: firmware and driver updates can revive efficiency but resale and long-term support are finite, so operators should weigh acquisition cost against expected throughput and electrical overhead; in multi-GPU rigs attention to riser quality, PCIe lane distribution and stable power supply design will often differentiate practical uptime from theoretical performance. In sum, the RX 480 8GB is less a flashy champion than a rigorous instrument-its architecture, memory capacity and measured power envelope make it an economical, adaptable choice for miners who prefer strategies of refinement and control to gambling on peak clocks, and who value predictable, tunable output across a spectrum of mining algorithms.
