Biostar has just unveiled a blast from the past today, a new RX 580 White graphics card that is designed to “dominate” the mid-range market, perfect for casual gamers and everyday users. The new card is said to deliver smooth 1080p gaming performance and will feature a sleek new white aesthetic that is ideal for bespoke DIY PC builds. The Biostar Radeon RX 580 White edition utilizes the Polaris 20 XT, 8 GB of GDDR5 memory, and 2,048 stream processors, a slight downgrade from the originally launched RX 580 which featured 2,304. Despite the downgrade in SPs, the 2,048 variant is actually a year newer than the RX 580 that launched in 2017. New Biostar RX 580 White edition.

The card will support Radeon FreeSync technology, DirectX 12, and Vulkan – enhancing gaming performance and ensuring a tear free visual experience. PCI Express 3.0 x16 bus interface will also feature in this card, delivering efficient connectivity alongside AMD Xconnect and HDR ready features. It seems a strange move from Biostar to release such an old GPU – especially when AMD are focusing fully on the brand’s newer RNDA architecture. Additionally, we still don’t have a price for the upcoming RX 580. The original card hit shelves for $229 which was great value for money back then. It’ll be interesting to see what Biostar values this new, white-tailored GPU at.
