Radeon R9 270
The model name is fully consistent with the new naming system for AMD video cards. The names of the Radeon R9 270 and 270X models differ only in the additional character "X" in the name of the older model. In the previous family, such a difference was indicated by the numbers xx50 and xx70, which was somewhat more logical and understandable. But we are almost used to the new system, especially since "extreme" indexes are now loved not only by AMD.
The Radeon R9 270 model occupies a position in the lower part of the middle of the new line and is very close to the Radeon HD 7870 model known from the last line.
