AMD Radeon RX 460 Review: Polaris On A Budget
RX460 Time Spy And, Steam VR Performance
3DMark Time Spy is a new DirectX 12 benchmark test from Futuremark. It features a DirectX 12 engine, built from the ground up, to support bleeding-edge features like asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading. Time Spy is designed to test the DirectX 12 performance of the latest graphics cards using a variety of techniques and varied visual sequences. This benchmark was developed with input from AMD, Intel, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and the other members of the Futuremark Benchmark Development Program, to showcase the potential of close-to-the-metal, low-overhead APIs like DirectX 12.

The Radeon RX 460 couldn't run this benchmark properly (we tried 2 sets of driver) and returned a score of .5. You shouldn't be considering this card for VR anyway, but we wanted to include the result for comparison nonetheless.
