Gaming PC build Radeon RX 580 8GB, Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB performance review
According to the top 1000 recommended requirements for PC games a PC with a Ryzen 5 2600 processor, a Radeon RX 580 8GB graphics card and 16GB RAM is better performing than 732 games from that list. The main hardware in this PC puts the Radeon RX 580 8GB as a bottleneck component. If this was upgraded then the system could increase the number of games it could run to 941 at recommended requirement.
The performance of these hardware components is best displayed in relation to the current most popular game, Hitman 3. In summary, while some might be tempted to play Hitman 3 in 1440p resolution with the Radeon RX 580 8GB, we feel it is best placed at running at 1080p, where you could get the following frame rates - Low setting: 91 FPS, Medium setting: 72 FPS, High setting: 48 FPS, Ultra setting: 35 FPS.
2nd most popular game: Cyberpunk 2077 - In summary, 1440p resolution shows itself to be the optimum performance vs visuals for the Radeon RX 580 8GB. While it can certainly get a strong 1080p Ultra of 47 FPS, if you want to move up to 1440p on Cyberpunk 2077 then we can see 1440p Low setting getting 95 FPS or the Medium returning 75 FPS. Change graphics settings up to High for 50 FPS and then Ultra gets 36 FPS.
3rd most popular game: Assassins Creed: Valhalla - In summary, while some might be tempted to play Assassins Creed: Valhalla in 1440p resolution with the Radeon RX 580 8GB, we feel it is best placed at running at 1080p, where you could get the following frame rates - Low setting: 75 FPS, Medium setting: 64 FPS, High setting: 56 FPS, Ultra setting: 38 FPS.
