Early Open-Source Linux Benchmarks Of The AMD Radeon RX 470

Thanks for doing these tests.

TBH I think the Nvidia Pascal results should simply be "Did not run - no Open Source Driver"

In addition, why are so many of them at 4K? The 470 is a card aiming at "1080p Ultra" gaming, and some of its specifications are set for that purpose. 4K is going to take a big hit on memory bandwidth and perhaps memory capacity, and therefore the results may not be representative at scale of what the card can do at 1080p.

I presume the 460 is going to be tested at 1080p Medium -> Ultra, as that appears to be what it is targeted at.

Still looking for X-Plane 10 benchmarks.

Still waiting for Laminar to provide me an updated benchmark demo package... Last I checked when trying their demo it's basically like a downloader for all the content. Previously they spun me a lightweight, complete demo package. I haven't heard back from Ben last time I asked him about an updated one for xp10.

Phoronix: Early Open-Source Linux Benchmarks Of The AMD Radeon RX 470

With my Radeon RX 470 retail unit finally having arrived yesterday, I've been running many benchmarks of this graphics card compared to other AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards under Linux. For your viewing pleasure today is the very tip of the iceberg of many RX 460 and RX 470 Linux benchmarks to be published on Phoronix over the days to come.
