As well as unveiling of a new 27 Inch MSI OPTIX
MPG27CQ GameSense curved gaming monitor last month MSI also unveiled their new
MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor MK2 graphics card offering a more affordable Armor
series graphics card, complete with afterburner overclocking utility. The
overclocking utility can be wirelessly connected to your smartphone device
using the companion application and supports both iOS and Android operating
systems.
The new graphics card is finished in black and red
rather than the traditional black-and-white and follows on from the already
unveiled MSI RX 570 and MSI RX 560 graphics cards, and their respectively
overclocked additions. The standard model offers out of the box clock speeds of
1353 MHz core, slightly higher than AMD-reference clocks of 1340 MHz. While the
overclocked version pushes this a little further offering 1366 MHz out of the
box. Both MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor MK2 graphics card variants leave the memory
untouched at 8.00 GHz GDDR5.
MSI has also included in-game video recording
software in the form of Predator, but have unfortunately not revealed any
worldwide availability or pricing for the new MSI Radeon RX 580 Armor MK2
graphics card at the current time. In the meantime for more details and full
specifications jump over to the official MSI website. As soon as more details
are announced will keep you up to speed as always.
