Radeon R9 280X in 2023 | Just get RX instead
26Once upon a time, the 280x was a dream for many PC gamers, but 10 years later, as it usually goes with time and tech, it may be hard to recommend it regardless of the price.
So for it's final battle, I put it up against some demanding AAA releases of recent times (the ones that will actually start) to see what this beast is capable of without the latest drivers or full DX12 support.
