While AMD is working hard to launch a new generation of new graphics processors based on Navi architecture, giving all the signs to be ready to disclose its latest input into the mid-performance graphics market in the form of RX 5500 and RX 5300 graphics based on Navi architecture, AMD's manufacturing partners seem to want to get rid of the increase in existing stockpiles of older graphics cards from the AMD Polaris architecture. MSI, for example, worked on a minor redesign of both the RX 580 Armor and Armor MK2 cards.
What's new with the RX 580 Armor and Armor MK2 cards?
The color scheme was changed, MSI this time went into full black. The PCB has also been redesigned, and the I / O base has also been redesigned (which retains four display connectors), along with a more powerful heatsink than before. The surface area of the cooling plates also appears to have increased, which means they will provide lower operating temperatures. The redesigned shield also maintains the power connector of the PCIe 8-pin socket. No further details are available at the time of writing.
