MSI RX 580 ARMOR 8G OC Graphics Card

This MSI graphics card uses the AMD Radeon RX 580 chipset with 8GB of GDDR5 memory. It is built for users who need a PCI Express 3.0 16X video card with a 256bit memory interface. The core clock runs at 8000MHz and the board draws power through a single 8pin connector. It suits 1080p gaming or general compute workloads on compatible motherboards.

PCI Express 3.0 16X Interface Limits

The card connects through a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot which caps theoretical bandwidth at the 3.0 specification. A 256bit memory bus and 8000MHz memory frequency set the practical throughput ceiling for the 8GB GDDR5 frame buffer. Systems limited to PCIe 2.0 or 8X electrical wiring will reduce available bandwidth. The 8pin power connector requires a power supply that can deliver the specified wattage on that rail.

Dual-Fan Armor Cooler and Build Notes

The Armor cooler uses a dual-fan shroud that exhausts heat into the case interior. A metal backplate adds rigidity and protects the PCB from flex during installation. Used units are inspected to a 100% functional standard but show visible wear and arrive without original packaging or accessories. The 8pin power plug sits at the rear edge so cable routing depends on case layout and PSU cable length.

Questions about this item

Will this card fit in a standard ATX case with a single 8-pin power cable available?

The card uses a PCI Express 3.0 16X slot and requires one 8pin power connector, so a standard ATX board and PSU with that cable will work.

Is the 8 GB of GDDR5 memory enough for 1080p gaming at high settings?

8GB of GDDR5 on a 256bit bus provides ample frame buffer for 1080p high settings in most current titles.

Does the Radeon RX 580 chipset support modern APIs like DirectX 12 and Vulkan?

The Radeon RX 580 chipset supports DirectX 12 and Vulkan, enabling compatibility with modern game engines.
