The RX 560 might be the entry-level flagship of the latest GCN 4.0 set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most budget PC gamers. On the other hand, the RX 550 is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 79. AMD ’s xx50 cards have always been defined by budget prices with performance that knocks on the door of entry-level graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the GCN 4.0 graphics card inside the RX 550, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, GT 1030, the RX 550 was 6.5 % faster.

AMD Radeon RX 550 review: A thrilling budget graphics card with a perplexing price The laser-focused Radeon RX 550 could have been the graphics card e-sports enthusiasts were waiting for.
Radeon RX 550 is AMD’s first graphics card based on new silicon since its Polaris 11-based Radeon RX 460. The company says RX 550 is 1080p-capable in a number of popular e-sports games, adding ...
AMD's total board power rating for the Radeon RX 550 is 50W, and we measured worst-case gaming power consumption at 47W. Due to aggressive throttling, MSI's RX 550 Aero ITX 2GB does even better ...
The AMD Radeon RX 550 is based on a new Polaris GPU known as Polaris 12 and internally known as Lexa Pro. This card would feature only 512 stream processors, 32 TMUs and 16 ROPs.
The AMD Radeon RX 500 series will also be utilizing a refreshed reference cooling system. All cards except the Radeon RX 550 will use dual fan cooling solutions as standard which means better cooling.
The Radeon RX 550 Mobile is a graphics card by AMD, launched in July 2017. Built on the 14 nm process, and based on the Lexa graphics processor, in its Lexa PRO variant, the card supports DirectX 12.0.

GT1030 2GB Vs RX550 2GB?Which should I take GT1030 2GB Vs RX550 2GB? please don't ask me to increase budget.

The same performance, but GT 1030 is trustful. Don't need to care about anything like BIOS, Driver, etc...And, some lower budget than RX 550.

Rx 550 4gb vs rx 560 2gbBoth have the same cost, so what is worth more 2x vram from 550 or 2x stream processors from 560+ clock speed?

vram is irrelevant to actual performancethe same for stream processorsthe 560 is superiorthe gtx 1050 ti should be around the same price and is better

RX 550 vs GT 1030How do the RX 550 and the GT 1030 compare?If the RX 550 is better, are there any low profile single slot cards out there?

The RX 550 is a little bit faster than the GT 1030. Low profile single slot cards also exist.The problem here is that the RX 550 is currently more expensive than it is really worth. It is only 14% faster but is $30-$40 more expensive.

Fanless vs fan GPUs (GT 1030/RX 550)I noticed that some manufacturers have made fanless versions of these budget GPUs. However, are there any difference in gaming performance between fanless and fan? If not, then I'll consider buying the fanless one for my silent gaming PC build

Usually the fanless components are slower, due to lower clock speeds in order to keep temperatures down. You know how if you overclock something it runs hotter? The reverse is also true. You don't get something for nothing. If you want silence you usually have to give up some performance. The real question here is even if they are slower, does it matter? Maybe they are still fast enough to suit your purposes. For instance, maybe for you 50fps silent is better than 60fps with fan noise. On the other hand, if these low budget cards barely manage 35fps in the games you want to play, giving up even a small amount of performance is out of the question.

RX 550, R7 250 or GT 1030?Been searching for a graphics card for a friend, prefferably one that doesnt need a 6 pin PCIE power connector, since his psu doesn't have one, and i've been stuck between these ones. Please help. Also, I'm reffering to the GDDR5 version of all the cards.
