AMD's Radeon RX 500 series are showing up everywhere so a launch is expected in the very near future. As we've written before, these cards are largely rebrands of the Radeon RX 400 series, with perhaps slightly different configurations, some higher clockspeeds and/or lower prices.

First up is this list of ASUS Radeon RX 500 cards which was discovered by VideoCardz. This is not the full list of upcoming cards, the site says they heard there will be more than the six listed below. A British website is listing the ROG STRIX RX 580 Gaming for £326.51 (incl. VAT).
