RX 480 4Gb vs. 2022 | Tales From The Scalper Pandemic

Benchmarking the AMD Radeon RX 480 4GB graphics card against 12 modern and popular games on an average gaming PC. It's no secret that I'm a fan of the Polaris family of graphics cards. Most of this dates back to 2018 and 2019, when it was possible to pick up powerhouse 1080 gaming cards like the RX 480 for less than £100. Now, in the aftermath of the Scalper Pandemic, prices are finally heading in the right direction and this card can be picked up for less than £120. The question is... should you?
