OK. THAT'S THE LAST ONE. We're taking a break from 5700 XTs for a little bit to get back on other stuff. Thanks for your patience. We haven't done a massive suite of partner models like this since probably the GTX 1080 Ti, and we needed a recap then too. This should help people who don't want to watch 10 other reviews.

Can't wait for the RX 5500 reviews!
Gamers Nexus please do a video on nvidia integers scaling for image quality comparison of setups such as 1440p vs 4k monitor with upscaling from 1440p.
This was a perfect review. I find myself depending on you guys more and more. Can you guys do a scaling cpu/gpu throttling benchmark at some point? Ive only seen partial setups that kind of cover this for apps and games. Would be nice to see one to help with cyber monday sale/shopping.
Will you be selling the excess 5700 xt's in your inventory ?
enjoy your month off from rx content because AMD needs to keep all eyes on them so the next round of 5500 and 5900's are surely launching in November
2:45 - *Best Overall* = #1 Gigabyte Gaming OC, #2 Sapphire Pulse.
5:45 - *Best Cooling* = Sapphire Nitro+ and PowerColor Red Devil.
9:48 - *Most Decidedly Average* = MSI Gaming X.
11:30 - *Most Unique Feature* = ASRock Taichi X for its 6 display out's.
13:35 - *Best Worst* = XFX THICC Ultra II for its form over function.
15:58 - *Best PCB* = ASUS ROG Strix
I was waiting for this comment. Had this weird feeling, when you bought already gbt goc, and scared some ways to find out, did you really made a right choice
thanks

You've got enough 5700XT's to play GPU domino's!
2 more, and it is enough for GPU-Tetris.
Isn't that a Linus thing?
He has enough that he could justify using them for crypto miner testing. Not that we should ever go back to the time when that was booming. But more of a curiosity content piece.
Gigabyte 5700 xt is priced the same as a used 1080 ti. Which one would you all go for as a temporary card until the high end GPU come out next year
@@iiiEazyiii TechPowerUp shows the 1080Ti being about 7% better in relative performance. And those numbers are based on reference model cards, so AIB partner cards may have varying degrees of performance differences. But it really depends what you want out of a video card. Both are very capable cards. From what I can see, the 5700XT's all seem to perform very close to each other (Except for thermals and noise), but I would trust Steve's recommendation for which one to get if you go that route. The Radeon cards do come with a warranty, so there's that to consider as well. But the 1080Ti has a lot of headroom for overclocking. I thought about going AMD myself. But I'm not one to adopt brand new technology right away. I like to wait and see what it is capable of (or isn't) as the node matures, before I buy it. I was contemplating buying an RTX card, but I decided to hold off on that too. So instead I bought a Titan Xp, and should have another in a week or two. But I'm an enthusiast, and I have 40 PCI-e lanes that need something to do!
Here's a link to the TechPowerUp page with the 5700XT. Just scroll down till you see the "Relative Performance" chart. There you can scroll through and look at the average differences between most of the GPU's out there.

2035: boys I promise last vid mann
awwww Steve, you given so much love to these Navi cards .... You could after all just do a quick summary and pick 3-4 models worth buying, but you took each card apart, tested thermals, performance, clocks... You covered almost every single aib model of Navi card, you may be the only one who went to such level of reviewing a product.
Im not good on money now, but when i will have a bit im buying your merchandise to give you some revenue, this channel must STAY ALIVE. zero bias - full pro.
Sappppphhhiiiiiiire!
Great! I was actually searching for this exact topic within the last 24 hours
First time viewer. I love the way you have a countdown timer for how long you will display a graphic. Nice touch.
Great job GN, we appreciate all the work gone into these reviews and comparisons.
Thank You for constantly pouring out extremely helpful content.
Thanks for putting in all the time and effort with the 5700 XT series. Good summary report 👍
I'd love this kind of round up for all video card launches!
Great vid man. I'm confident in chosing my card now. Thanks for all the insane work you and buildzoid do! Keep it up
What did you go for n how has it panned out?? I’m stuck on deciding which one to get
@@Scrapzilla69 I got the Powercolor red devil 5700 and flashed it with the XT BIOS. They were sold out of the XT's but it ended up being pretty damn close. I highly recommend it.
Jayson Spain thanks for the reply, I’ll look it up 👍🏻
GN: *Turns the XFX card into ashes and still tries to burn it*
The viewers: "It's already dead! Stop it!"
@Curtis Riceman Why is that a good thing? Wouldn't it be better if the card was good when thinking of people that buy the card sorely because meme?
I'm ready for them to do a teardown review of the ultra thicc III triple fan
And yet GN never wanted to review the Asus tuf 5700xt which runs Gddr6 thermals at 104'C
@Geo Tech News The card always works out of the box? RTX was a nightmare for a lot of people during the first few months. Not the drivers but the cards themselves were dying, fan issues, etc.
@2BuckGeo fuck YOU
Finally, I've been waiting for this for sooooo long
Great video! Really appreciate all the effort. Love the roundup style, hope to see more!
Thks for the diferent aproach on this review. Greets from Portugal
Highly recommend a benchmark on the Asrock Challenger 5700 XT. I'm going to assume that one sold the most thanks to the multiple Rakuten discounts at $360.
I would pick the Pulse anyday over the Gaming OC as I've had more than one Gigabyte GPUs fans die on me. While Sapphire has ball bearing fans that basically lasts forever in my experience.
Is the pulse still holding up and are the thermals good?

I don't know if I have ever seen so many reviews about a GPU that is made by different partners. But I like to see that. I hope you guys get what you deserve for this really hard work. It's just impossible to think how many hours you spent on reviewing those GPU's.
Thanks for all these videos on the RX 5700 XT models. It's been really helpful for me since I will be building my new PC soon.
GN Steve: Ok we are done with the 5700 (XT) cards

It's a shame the Red Dragon wasn't tested...it would be interesting to see how does it compare cooling wise, being the smallest of the bunch.
i have somme of these in my group, and are pretty much similar to Pulse cards in cooling performance.
he tested the non xt red dragon. it's pretty decent, close to the pulse card
Yeah, the Red Dragon would have been nice to see. It's one of the only true 2 slot designs in this generation. It would be nice to see what you're giving up if you have a small case, or just a small budget. I think the Mech and the Challenger were also 2 slot, but it's hard to tell from most listings. I know he did the regular 5700, but I haven't seen much info on how the cooling scales. Fitment might be another aspect to add to reviews in the future.
@Hose2wAcKiEr Everything I have read to date shows it's peak sound is around 40-41 db, same as the Pulse. Temps are also comparable to the Pulse as all are within 5-6c of it. The difference in core and boost clock is 20mhz, not something you would ever be able to show real world performance with. They are within $5 USD of each other right now so that's unimportant, all you are really left with to split the two is availability and size. I know that the current AMD SFF case I am working on only fits up to a 2 slot card, anything larger simply starts choking out the GPU fans. Means the 2.5 slot size of the Pulse simply wouldn't work.
TL;DR No one would be able to note any real world difference between these two cards, buy what is available. For SFF builds the Red Dragon will fit better.
Yes the Challenger from Asrock is a true 2-slot. Really nice looking card if nothing else.
MSI Mech OC design is pbb a loud hot mess. MSI need to do their homework for upcoming AMD GPUs.
Thanks for all your efforts GN! I've loved seeing all the 5700 XT reviews. :)
In May 2020 purchased RX5700XT Sapphire Nitro+ The drivers were buggy at first, but now I'm stoked to have this card, it runs FS2020 in 4k and I'm still in love, I love all the RGB too
GN : does a recap of AMD's lineup of products *without consulting the AMD Senior Analyst*
Me : "what is this blasphemy?"
Gigabyte Gaming OC: the Tim Duncan of 5700Xt's.
who's tim duncan
"Timothy Theodore Duncan (born April 25, 1976) is an American professional basketball coach and former player"
I guess he meant the best all-rounder.
I think Dirk Nowitzki is best all rounder, can shoot 3's consistently
"Big Fundamentals" baby! A great analogy bro.
Duncan is also comparable to Nitro+ 5700xt cos he's the best player with the most cool mindset and didn't mind the most heated trashtalk.
Really appreciate this, thank you GN and BZ. I ended up with the gigabyte card, and manage to undervolt to 960, its a cool and quiet beast =)
Thanks for this, Steve. Much appreciated and I have enjoyed all the reviews but having this as a single point of reference will be helpful when i actually grab my 5700XT
This guy just deserves 10M subs, and I think everyone agrees with me. I'm just learning more and more with him, such a good professional and awesome detailed reviews
Kind of a specific number but alright
@@yaeven4943 hahahaha
That outro was so humble; there's so much more to your content than "the cooling solution".
You have clearly put *a lot of work* into fully breaking down how the various flavours of this GPU have been executed, and have, as usual, put the manufacturer's marketing to shame.
I turn to Gamers Nexus for *real information* from *real experts* who care about accuracy and honesty, and am never disappointed.
I've learned a huge amount about computer hardware from you and your recommended guest channels like Actually Hardcore Overclocking.
Thank you for continually stripping away the bullshit and getting down to the nitty-gritty with your consistently excellent content.
I also love your sense of humour and watch you content about products I'm not that interested in, purely for the entertainment :)
As much as I like GN I really don't like the thermal Temps at 40dB. Cards like the Gigabite are quite loud during cooling on heavy load. Also recommending the card while the internet is loaded with responses that the build quality of the card is different for everyone (some really bad) is a shame.
Glad to know my Nitro+ purchase back in 2020 was an okay purchase :)
This is great timing for me! Thanks!! 😀
For anyone reading comments for other 5700xt recommendations.
I'm surprised the Power Colour Red Dragon didn't feature in your list. Here in the UK its now selling for about £20-30 cheaper than any other 5700xt. Its dual slot and according to hardware unboxed it performs admirably in cooling and noise performance. Just something to consider.
I agree , its good card , have one on my rig ;)
I really want the Red Devil the benchmarks I have seen on several videos make it as good as a or slightly better than a 2070 in some titles, so for bang for the buck, the pricing is on point!
Not only a good use of statistics, but a good analysis and explanation of the methodology behind them.
Pretty much the first video I've ever watched, only ever seen you on Linus' roast, really, although I've known and heard of you. Can I just say, I LOVE you for having slide bars on still images, so I can see if I need to pause to read it all! Why the hell don't all people do that?! It makes SO much sense! Also, thank you for an AWESOME review. I've been planning to buy a (non-XT) RX5700 card, and since the thermal solution is the same on both GB cards, I now know exactly what to get!😁👍
I’m not buying a 5700, but i enjoyed watching all the reviews, especially the teardowns! Thanks for the great, in depth content GN, looking forward to whatever is coming next!
Nvidia fanboy it's time to see the reality, AMD is taking over
@@kinghaus Lol nvidia is stll better. AMD doesnt sell high-end gpus. AMD cant compete wiht 2080s
dmastervids dude are you an idiot 😂 AMD hasn’t made any cards that compete with the 2080. RX 5700 XT can easily beat 2060,Super,2070 and the 2070 super (2070S does get a lil more FPS in some games but overall AMD wins) For 400/500 bucks wtf are you expecting? To compete with a thousand dollar card? Use your brain dude
@@kinghaus I've got the 5700xt. Drivers for it are absolutely garbage. You're lucky if you don't get a green/black screen on any game you play. Gonna switch to 2070.
SpannerzIsHappy really? I heard they fixed the drivers
Yay! this makes me feel good about my Gaming OC!!
Thank you Steve and all at Gamers Nexus.. your work and dedication doesn't go unnoticed. For me you are the number on go to for all things... Unless I'm looking at water...(Jay😀😀) lol... But seriously there's no other chanel like yours and that's why your number one.
Thanks again for the great very in depth reviews as always solid content for a nerd like me appreciate it.
Dude why would you make the sweetest shirt you've ever had limited edition? Wireframe is awesome wtf!!! Bring it back in hoodie form plz!
Looking forward to a video of you redeeming and eating that free sandwich
Wow that is a killer intro. Great vid too 👍🏻
Ok, those intro b roll shots with all the card were next level
I'm curious about the MSI RX 5700 XT MECH OC, since it's about 50$ cheaper in my region then the Gigabyte Gaming OC - which is just under 600 USD (I know, we have horrible prices for all PC components).
Where is the Red Dragon? :( I am much more interested in knowing about this card than most of these other cards, most of which are just unnecessarily expensive (though a couple of the expensive ones are obviously very good).
Me too! He reviewed it before and said it was really good but idk why it's not on here
@@danielsanchez8239 just because it's good doesn't mean it is the best
He reviewed the 5700 version, not the XT. I have the Red Dragon 5700 XT, I like it. Or ask away.
@Danish Wistara I'm drooling over 3 models, Red Dragon, Gigabyte gaming OC and Sapphire Pulse, all of them seem very good but not sure about the dragon, it's 40€ cheaper than the gigabyte though on 1 site
That was very informative!
I would love to see an updated video of this since the MSI Evoke OC updated its thermals and the standard non-XT variant didn’t have these heating issues to begin with
There is one thing that I did not miss.
One company, when faced with a bad (but fair) review, went full agro publicly stating that GN is biased against them. I wont state the name, because they've been Thicc shamed enough.
MSI, when faced with the same criticism, decided to fix what was broken. And when "made fun of" because of the name, took it in stride and also joked about it (with a reference, showing that they did saw the review).
Shows the maturity of both companies.
But I might be biased here. And I know that. I had a MSI 750ti that still works after at least 6 years of mostly 24\7 usage with little maintenance (mostly just clearing dust from fans). I bought two Optix AG32CQ (within 4 months of each other) because it was the best value for money with that specs. Had one of them DOA that was RMA'd and fixed within a month (travel time is a bitch, still think they should have just shipped another, but heh). Still plan to buy a 3rd one, eventually, when I can say I can afford it, for that 3 monitor display with almost no bezel. I say almost because, sadly, the image coverage isnt perfect.
They won tons of brownie points for me when a gamer had a lost bullet fly into his home and lodge itself behind the monitor... and MSI connected with him, lowkey, sending him a replacement monitor for free. They didnt made a fuss about it. That got even more brownie points for me.
The only reason I didnt made my new build MSI focused was that their product line for the 3rd generation ryzen wasnt the best value for money regarding performance. But I tried (and tried hard) to get their Alchemy 700X as a case (the curved case they showed at Computex 2019). Even thought I knew it would probably would be very bad with air flow for the components, I knew it would look nice with the monitor setup I have now. Had to "settle" for a Lian Li Air. As it was reviewed well by GN, and I do take their reviews as time well spent before buying anything. Still, if given the chance, and if the price was right, I'd totally would have got the MSI case.
So yes, I understand my possible bias, but in the end I'm a consumer. I dont buy because of brand loyalty. I buy with value for money and my usage in mind. But I do know when to look at a company and recognize they have real humans behind them. That, in a way, can sway consumers to purchase their product, when everything else is equal.
Regardless, thank you GN (and buildzoid) for all your hard work. Not only on the GPU side of things, but on the CPU's and Mobos. Watching your videos (and that I did religiously) made my new build decisions much easier. Spent around 2k euros on the new rig, that I do not cry about one bit. It was a well overdue upgrade, and without your feedback, I'm sure I wouldnt have been as informed as I am on each and every component that I got.

Thank you for this series. I'm not in the market for a 5700 series, but having so many breakdowns of the same device really gave me a good idea of what things to look for and watch out for with video cards in general.
Really put into perspective how bad a blower card can be, that even the worst cards here were still better. No wonder my 660Ti died pretty quickly back in the day.
The sapphire nitro+ se is 5% behind the 2080 in performance.
Would love to see Strix performance since it has the best PCB
obigosu it has a problem with the cooler falling away from the pcb
Loved these reviews, really fun to watch and helpful in deciding upon which card to get... Firstly, I didn't know anything about the ASUS Strix, and how it has a great PCB, but GN haven't reviewed it. I'm almost totally going to just buy that one, so it never dies, and lasts forever, just like my current reference R9 290X!
thank you so much for your hard work , it really helps a lot !
It's amazing how the 5700 XT gets this kind of attention post launch.
It's new tech, if you want to see reviews on RTX cards look to last year. The Super cards are not some kind of new generation.
Well what else is new on the market my dude? Super doesn't count
Take a look at the super lineup! Same coolers as the non-super model, just better performance
Only has a lot of attention because of all the problems people are having with it
Nah, you forgot to put "Best looking RGB" card😂
nitro+ ithink
The Gigabyte Gaming OC and Sapphire Pulse have a ~$10 difference at a local retailer in my city.
Are you gonna review the upcoming RX 5500 next? lol Great work all around GN.
Took a chance on the Gigabyte OC as soon as it was stocked....have been really happy with it, thanks for confirming my bias 🤙
flukenukeem is there any problems with fans or drivers I wanna buy it
Now we just wait for a series with Nvidia cards aswell. :.)
You can look at last year when RTX came out? Or next year when the 3000 series comes out. The Super cards are not anything new.
Just make a playlist at this point theres like 30 videos lol
I just bought and built a pc with the nitro+ 5700xt, it’s so nice and looks amazing
Thanks for the work!
Best overall will depend on where you live as the cards can vary greatly in price, over here for example powercolor is always cheaper by a significant margin.
mips reddevil is 50€ more expensice then gb. I think its worth it
@@user-oh4ky7rv5i If shipping wasn't so dang expensive I would buy red devils locally and sell them in the eu.
Only card I'm still curious about is Red Dragon :P
I got one with XT, but I still need some parts for my pc build 😁
Yep I have two Red Dragon and they are great!!
Nice to know that I picked 'well' with the cheapest sapphire blower 5700xt- not only did I get it 2 months earlier than all the alternatives, It is still one of the cheapest to mod to water. It 'does the job' quite nicely over my old GTX 970 on a 1080p monitor but can 'go ham' and waterblock it in a couple of years once blocks come in at a 'reasonable' price.
Thanks for all the work.
Thanks for making this video.
I thought king Henry VIII held the record for the most EXs
Getting one tomorrow for boxing day, and can't decide between the Evoke OC (Gaming X even) and the Pulse 5700 XT. I wanted the Pulse for a long time, I have the RX580 Nitro right now, but then MSI has afterburner. Hard to decide, but I do know I don't want 3 fans so nothing from that tier.
Great Job, Steve.
Perfect timing GN! Considering which to purchase due to Nvidias (carelessness ((?)) ) in regards to latency issues and their drivers, after seeing AMDs far better results I can’t resist, thank you kindly! Amazing video as always
So if I read through the lines correctly, the Gigabyte RX 5700 XT Gaming OC won the all-round test because it's so standard that it just works.
Am I right about that particular piece of gospel?
yeah no gimmicks its what it is
i didnt see the asus rog strix oc, where does that fit into the lineup

the worst is the asus tuf, just don't buy it. it's loud, overheats with cooling going to the gddr6 vrm, and will artifact in all games
The most disgusting thing about that card, about 1/3 of the thickness is just plastic to make it look like it has a bigger heatsink than it does.
Which would you reccomend me? 50th Anniversary Edition or AsRock Challenger D OC (not Taichi)? Help me out please. I want to change my ASUS STRIX GTX 960 2GB DIRECT CUII OC
I'm maybe late but is rx 5700 xt xfx thicc 2 ultra good and which model is best i want to buy this gpu
Update: Now that new fan drivers have been released for the XFX, it is honestly one of the better performers on the list both thermally and gaming wise. It stays cool and I constantly get a boost clock of around 1900mhz which is what it is rated for without overvoltage. The only issue that still remains with the card is the fans being a tad louder at any speed.
I'd like to see a similar round-up when the 5500/5500xt release (I'm sure they're will be at least some content though, keep up the good work)
Agreed. I enjoy these, even though I can't afford them :)
Daily reminder that the 5700 XT Red Dragon saw *ZERO* love from the whole Internet, leaving unanswered the question whether the cooling+VRM are identical on the non-XT and the XT variant 😭😭😭
Yes they are, it has been confirmed by Powercolor themselves that both variants have the same cooler and the the VRMs are the same. - The PCB on the red dragon matches the Nitro+ as well in terms of phases. I actually went with the Red Dragon 5700xt and have had 0 issues so far and am very happy with it!
Would’ve liked to see a strix in the mix
There is a Strix there....

Aahhh.... You want a review?
Then skip Gamers Nexus and Hardware Unboxed and check out others by Vortex and Tech Testers....
They have more 'neutral' reviews.
Short version:
The card actually is great for what it is. If you want a 5700XT and really can spend the money, go ASUS.
I was planning on the RTX 2080. But after I saw the 5700XT, my view changed.
See, 10 FPS for such a huge price increase?
And you can OC the card a bit manually and get closer to that.
This is coming from someone who has really researched this and asked people who own that card.
Don't let haters tell you otherwise. If you can afford them, ASUS provides what you pay for.
Helpful. I think the Strix should be one of the ones always got to test even just as a benchmark for all the others to aspire to.
Hello
please tell me
what disadvantages did you notice when playing / working with 5700 XT
for example: crashes? black screen? blue?
I think over the purchase, thanks!
Then there's that one guy who bought morpheus II and slap it on his reference 5700 XT
The reference model is selling at a pretty steep discount every now and then. So it's not the worst idea.
The Powercolor Red Dragon XT is probably a good recommend as well.
Why wasnt the card included in the roundup?
@@franzpleurmann2585 they didn't get one from the mfr, no one in the world did afaik. DontCallTechSupport got it with his own money from what I've heard.
@Hose2wAcKiEr Red Dragon is the only 2slot card that can fit dan A4
Would place it near the RX 5700 XT Gigabyte OC.
Do these scores/evaluations still hold up in may 2020?
Planning to buy one combined with a Razer Core X Chroma and my MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) ... Thanks!
I was going to get a pulse 5700 xt for $409 because I had good luck with sapphire but when I wanted one those first 2-3 weeks they would go out of stock so fast I couldn't get one and I gave up and bought a 2070 super FE for $499 and got a couple games free to justify it. Definitely looking forward to seeing how they scale up with 5800/5900 series and new architecture
I think I'm going for the red devil after watching this
Arie Koster me too bro
Do u get it and how is it holding up
@@thomas-br2py It's really good I changed my whole pc with rgb and red because of red devil. And I added a temp meter on the side. It does'nt get hot in my opinion and the sound is suprisingly calm. I can't send a pic too bad but it is badass
@@Mrpeanutbal ok what case do you have?
@@thomas-br2py aerocool mechatron black edition
The nitro+ has universal rgb, which of course gives the most performance
Big Bruh for $60 more lmao
@@bx6p166 msrp is only 40 more, you're thinking of the strix card
Big Bruh no
Ona amazon it’s $60 more
@@bx6p166 that's only due to early lifespan shortages
Alrighty, I didn't go wrong with my first graphics card purchase then! Bought the Gigabyte Gaming OC last month and it's holding up pretty good
Any Strix review (please please please) should maybe be done after Asus release their thermal fixes. My Asus XT runs like a total dream and just looks and feels so well made .
I just returned my gbt oc the fps I was getting was abysmal my Vega 56 scoring the same and drivers aren't that great atm theres slot of people with the same issue on reddit/and forums
The thing is, it is not optimized for every game and the drivers are only getting better, fps wise 5700xt will get better, but honestly stick with the vega 56 and wait for 2020, with vega 56 it is too early for an upgrade
@@paddelboot7 I'll also say that at this point in Nvidia's launch of the 20xx series, they were just starting to address the artifacting then dying problem. New products are always like this, it's not a knock on AMD or Nvidia. It's just far to difficult to know what's going to happen once your product enters the wild, only thing you can do is release and then update like mad.
What if they bring out a kitty cat card RX 5700 XT
Jason Gooden Oh boy do I hand something to show you
@@FirstnameLastname-cw8ok I think it was a cut down 580, not a Navi...
@@previousslayer it was, but I asked what if?
So buy both and put the cooler from the 580 on the 5700XT.
Great content all those 5700xt will make ya head spin.
thanks for the video
