Radeon R5 230 MSI 2GB Edition Game Requirement Analysis
Radeon R5 230 MSI 2GB Edition is a special edition of the entry-level Radeon R5 230.
The only new feature is the frame buffer being doubled to 2GB though this will not boost its performance and can be addressed as a gimmick - marketing to lure consumers into paying more for the same product.
This card performs exactly like the reference AMD R5 230.
