RX 480 4GB vs 2021 | Tales from the Scalper Pandemic

Benchmarking the AMD Radeon RX 480 4GB graphics card against 10 popular games in 2021 on an average gaming PC.
As new games start to balk at cards with a paltry 4GB of VRAM, it’s worth looking back at the still otherwise viable RX 480 to see if the 8GB model’s lesser endowed brother is worth picking up, especially as the full fat card is retaining a lot of that Ethereum mining value.
