I've got an RX 5300, but no RX 5500 for comparison, a different test system, and don't have most of the games featured here. In what I *have* tested though, it's slightly ahead of my GTX 970 and ties my A380 in DX12/beats it in DX9-11, as long as you don't run out of VRAM? Problem is that with only 3gb the VRAM issue is even more acute, and the pricing in the US between the 5300, 5500, 5500XT 4gb, and 5500XT 8gb is really close. There's little point to tracking one down unless you really love weird GPUs.
That's one of the downfalls of getting a lesser known card. A lot of games don't support it. It would be different if the 5500 was a cut down version of the 5600 or like some lesser binned version. As far as I know. It's a totally different card.
I have a 10 year old prebuilt with an i7 4790 and I put a 1050 ti in it 2 years ago. About 5 months ago I upgraded to an RX 6600 non XT card and made sure to get a new power supply for it's power. Turns out the motherboard has PCIE express 2.0 so my 6600's VRAM is bottlenecked because it's PCIE slot is x8 and my 1050 ti was x16. So I downgraded my VRAM's speed but added more power in a different way. But the 8 GB is WAY better than the 4 GB I did have and Red dead runs great but things just don't load right. The game bugs out a lot and tells me I don't have enough VRAM even on the lowest settings. But I can still run it at high/ultra settings!
yea i got one of these in a HP prebuilt i found on marketplace for $500 with a ryzen 5 5600g, solid build held up to most of my abuse at 1080p 60 medium all around. swapped for a 1080 and a non oem mobo and it's been a good rig
I have the RX 5500. I bought a HP TG01 2003 PC with the Ryzen 5 5600g, maxxed it out to 32GB RAM, and since they had sold the GPU, I went out and bought it online as well. I've had no problems running Hogwarts at all...so it may be something in your hardware or settings?
Symptoms look like GPU core instability, but if I were you, I would try Unigine Superposition and if the PC hard crashes, the GPU core is most likely toast.
I had this card I sold for $50 bucks I replaced it with a 1660 super in my hp prebuilt and then a 3060 a year later. The 3060's been great although it just feels like my 1660 super but with raytracing and dlss tbh.
G'day Random, While this rare GPU performs similar to your MSI GTX780Ti Lightning (although not now it died😭) it shows that not all hard to find GPUs are as desirable as others... even compared to broken ones.
G'day @@arthurmann578, yeah depending on the games you play older parts are still perfectly fine for gaming, also nVIDIA crying because 4060Ti wasn't getting reviewed with RT ON & DLSS3 FrameGen "because that is how all gamers will use them" is just crap as many people don't play any games that have those features so they are worthless in cases of people like me just wanting to upgrade from 1080p-1440p or 1080p/1440p-4K.
Personally, I would love to see a revisit of the R9 Nano. 4gb of vram but with a 4096! Bit memory bus. Gcn 3.0 architecture Coi: I have one as my daily driver.
ReFlashed AMD W5500s 8GB are being sold on AliExpress as RX-5500. They show 2560 shaders, so one would assume it's a de-tuned 5700XT, but no, it's a workstation card reflashed...Would make an interesting subject for a video tho. I got one for about $70...replacing an RX-480 with it.
Upgraded this card to an rx 6600. Put the 5500 in an old i7 6700 optiplex with an upgraded psu also. just had to move the 2.5" harddrive for it to fit...
How do you manage to keep your GPU temperatures so low? Especially on RDR2? My GPU hits 70+ degrees after couple of minutes of gameplay and that's with VSync and RivaTuner to keep the FPS to 75.
@@RandomGaminginHD I always keep my PC clean blowing it with air a couple of times a month. Weird thing is that other games that I have have never reached high temps with VSync, but when it's turned off it goes 70+ only on RDR it goes 70+ even with VSYNC or RivaTuner with Custom settings
I just recently bought one for $55 on ebay ($60 after taxes) gonna be running this into my Home server pc that I got in my living room, lately been playing smaller titles with the Ryzen 3 2200g apu and its been pretty decent figured I'd go with an amd gpu so it can merge their apu/gpu memory. At the meantime this is really just made to have my younger siblings get into pc gaming
I almost expected to hear about the rx5500 non xt when i saw the picture. I used to have an rx5500xt 4gb. Yeah, not amazing but usable. Especialy if you lower the texture quality.
I did find one of these on Marketplace for 40 dollars, cheaper than what GTX 960's go for in my area. Could be a decent pick up for me since I'm running a GTX 670.
Would probably go with a 1060 (6GB), 1660/1660S/1660Ti or RX580 over this card due to the lack of availability and the lack of VRAM. But still, not a bad experience!
Card was specifically designed to run late PS4 titles in PS4 Pro quality. It was released in late 2019 (one year before PS5) , and would cover all games from that period since there were no exclusive PS5 titles just yet.
Are you keeping your motherboard or replacing it? If keeping, I'd go for an i5-13600k. If getting a new motherboard, I'd try to find an AM5 motherboard for a decent price and get a 7800X3D.
My 12600kf handles everything I throw at it gaming wise without a hitch. I suspect you'll do well as a content creator with a 12th or 13th gen 700 sku.
one thing i noticed is that the power consumption was under 100w or even around the low 90s the whole time. I wonder if you could undervolt the card a little bit and then maybe lower the clocks to make it max at 75w, then jump the sense pins on the power connector to get it to run on systems without pcie power cables.
rofl I knew it exactly as soon as you started the video I got one of them in my backup test bench pc behind me it's not 2 bad of a card and that's weird mine works on Hogwarts no problem got it for like 130$ off Facebook sales in 2020.
The numbers suggest a RX580 outperforms a RX5500 despite the newer card being 4.0 PCIe interface compared to the 580's 3.0 so it is a close run thing. 580 also uses a bit more power if that is a consideration so smaller PSU for the 5500 is a plus there too. Its quite remarkable that a gDDR6 model struggled hard against a lesser gDDR5 model but you will notice the bus is double on the 580 proving again that you can have the newest bits but strangled by that damned bus interface.
Did the PC crash at 1:45? Maybe GPU core is unstable if Windows froze solid. Just saw some squares! Looks like classic GPU core instability, usually only happens when core is OC'ed too much. That would normally be like it telling me to turn the GPU frequency down pronto!
I need a advice from the pc master race community, I have a RX 6800 XT and plus a bit of cash should I trade it in for A RTX 3090 or should I just buy the next gen cards? RTX 4080 or the RX 7900 XTX? The RX 6800 XT is still a beast even these days I just want a Powerhouse graphics card that surpasses this GPU.
Its interesting my GTX 970 gets similar performance to this card minus MW2 which completely kills FPS whenever waterphysics are in question from 80fps to 35
My friend has a HP Pavilion with this exact same card. He thought it was the 1650 Super variant, but he's kinda computer illiterate and didn't know how to check the specs properly lol. The RX 5500 isn't a bad 4GB card, in fact it's roughly between an RX 570 and 580 (with the XT variant pushing closer to the 580/590). But for some reason, his PC refuses to allow OC stability testing in Adrenalin without crashing immediately, as well as successfully installing Ryzen Master altogether. It has the 5600G, and he's got a 3200Mhz 32GB RAM kit but due to the lack of a proper BIOS (thanks, cheap ass HP lol) he can't set the speed above 2666Mhz. I was curious to see if Ryzen Master would allow for setting manual RAM clocks (since that's the case on pretty much any other Ryzen system I've worked on), but in all honesty I think he just needs to do a clean install of Windows at this point since those are far from the only odd quirks the prebuilt has. But yeah, due to the RAM speed the performance of his 5600G is impacted somewhat & the low level of L3 cache doesn't help either. However, paired with the 5500 he doesn't see much of a CPU bottleneck anyway. I've recommended that once he upgrades the proprietary motherboard and PSU, the RX 6700 & 6700 XT are what he should consider as upgrade options. He mainly plays Rust, and while the 5500 seems to manage decently enough at 1080p low/med (between 40-80fps), those RDNA 2 cards would allow him to play high refresh 1080p/1440p native res and have a great experience.
Asking for cheap 1440p option ( RX5700 non-XT, available for 130 Euros now used or AliExpress ELSA mining cards with some guarantee, +BIOS flash to XT ) vs 7600 comparison. Since the 7600 has some drawbacks due to its interface in higher res with high textures, the results may surprise and make it an even worse choice.
A bit off topic, but I have an interesting request. Seeing as recent gen Radeon graphics cards have very similar number in name shared with GPU's from 12 years ago namely the XFX Radeon HD 6790 1GB GDDR5 and the XFX Radeon RX 6750XT Speedster Swift319 12GB GDDR6 model I was wondering if you could do a 12 years comparison video using two comparatively relevant systems to see just how far we have come over the past 12 years. The two systems could be as follows: 12 year old machine - CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 4 cores 4 threads . Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G45 MS-7752 Intel Socket LGA 1155 RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X 16GB (2×8GB) DDR3 1866Mhz 240pin PC3 - 12800 memory kit. Storage: SanDisk Ultra 3D NAND 500GB SATA 3 6GB/s internal 2.5" SSD. GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6790 1GB GDDR5. DVD drive: Liteon DVD/R/RW Multi-disc Power Supply: Corsair 550watt Semi-Modular PSU. Case: Any mid tower case will do. Current Gen system - CPU: Intel Core i5 13600KF Motherboard: MSI B760P Pro Wifi Intel Socket LGA 1700 DDR5. RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 series 32GB (2×16GB) 288pin DDR5 5200 (PC5-41600) memory. Storage: SanDisk Ultra 3D NAND NVME M.2 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD. GPU: XFX Radeon RX 6750XT Speedster Swift319 12GB GDDR6 graphics card. DVD/Blu-Ray: Optional. Power Supply: Corsair CXM650 650watt Semi-modular PSU. Case: Mid-tower case with a splash of RGB lighting,.... because it's both cool looking and silly! 🤪 Do side by side comparisons to see just how much difference 12 years in advances in technology have made. Then compare the original launch MSRP of all the parts for the 12 year old system vs the new 2022/23 system and see if value for money has gotten better or worse over the last 12 years. How much performance per British Pound (Quid) did we get 12 years ago vs today? This is a good opportunity to provide some real value for money insight into today's market and maybe even making a reasonably educated guess for what the future might bring. And to help cover the cost of buying the computer parts and producing the video you could sell the two machines once you're done with the reviews and maybe turn a tidy profit. 💷😊👍
Actually there is an rtx 2060 super that is also only used in hp + Lenovo prebuilt systems and it looks exactly the same as this 5500 but without the Radeon word of course 😅 you might want to look out for one of these 2060 supers instead of this one as they have 8gb of vram and is more powerful and here in turkey they are going for almost the same amount of money around 130-180$ used and it's been a long time since you revisited the 2060s
I find it very funny how hogwarts and star wars jedi survivors (dead ea game) wasnt starting, but cyberpunk 2077. Does this Card starts Forspoken, Tomb Raider, or the last of us part 1 if i asking?
at the risk of making videos too long, have you ever considered making a list of "games to benchmark" with any CPUs / graphics cards, to make them more "standardized"? I love your work on the older stuff, but also slightly disappointed when there's some games not to be found (I guess you just pick whatever is the most "popular" nowadays?), outside of inability to run them, of course just my opinion though! you can just skip what i said if you find it very taxing i'd still watch your vids either way😄 cheers!
I've always been an Nvidia user and I am pretty ignorant when it comes to AMD products. So, question: are AMD graphics cards with "XT" basically AMD's version of Nvidia's "Ti"? That's what I've always assumed.
So only difference to the 4gb XT version is lower clocks?EDIT and one less DP output (at least according to techpowerup) Wonder if it can be overclocked to XT speeds then
I'm fortunate enough to have a 7900XT but these review videos are so good and informative that I will forever click on them as soon as a new one drops

That's one of the downfalls of getting a lesser known card. A lot of games don't support it. It would be different if the 5500 was a cut down version of the 5600 or like some lesser binned version. As far as I know. It's a totally different card.
It's the same chip with the same number of cores enabled as the 5500XT, but with a lower clockspeed and TDP.
@@jameslake7775 then it sounds like a driver issue. He should go install the drivers that HP provides. Might be something there
Driver issues. My 5500XT 8GB work perfectly I mean better then RX 6500XT
In my country they cost £110 if you find fine offer ( I used today's exchange rate from my country's currency)
There is even 5300 had no idea until few days ago
I thought you had found another Rx 5300.
I'm still looking for one for my collection!
Me too, been looking for ages!
I still have an RX 5600 (non XT) 6GB gddr6 Dell OEM right now. About to put it in a system for my cousin unless you passionately want it to compare.
It's cool you're showing this card for us. Seems pretty close to the 5500 XT
Ahhh ❤! The Thumbnail of the video and the content always gets my Attention❤👍
I have a 10 year old prebuilt with an i7 4790 and I put a 1050 ti in it 2 years ago. About 5 months ago I upgraded to an RX 6600 non XT card and made sure to get a new power supply for it's power. Turns out the motherboard has PCIE express 2.0 so my 6600's VRAM is bottlenecked because it's PCIE slot is x8 and my 1050 ti was x16. So I downgraded my VRAM's speed but added more power in a different way. But the 8 GB is WAY better than the 4 GB I did have and Red dead runs great but things just don't load right. The game bugs out a lot and tells me I don't have enough VRAM even on the lowest settings. But I can still run it at high/ultra settings!
Love your reviews it's a brilliant channel really like the style of your content
yea i got one of these in a HP prebuilt i found on marketplace for $500 with a ryzen 5 5600g, solid build held up to most of my abuse at 1080p 60 medium all around. swapped for a 1080 and a non oem mobo and it's been a good rig
Do a video on the regional 6500 XT 8GB to see if the vram would have made it good .
Yeah been looking for one of those too. Definitely will test when I find one
I have the RX 5500. I bought a HP TG01 2003 PC with the Ryzen 5 5600g, maxxed it out to 32GB RAM, and since they had sold the GPU, I went out and bought it online as well.
I've had no problems running Hogwarts at all...so it may be something in your hardware or settings?
Symptoms look like GPU core instability, but if I were you, I would try Unigine Superposition and if the PC hard crashes, the GPU core is most likely toast.
I had this card I sold for $50 bucks I replaced it with a 1660 super in my hp prebuilt and then a 3060 a year later.
The 3060's been great although it just feels like my 1660 super but with raytracing and dlss tbh.
I love the Comparison Videos i remember your Video
running PS1 games in 4K
I just pulled this exact same card from my PC. Never thought I'd see it reviewed here lmao
Im so glad i got the 8gb 5500xt vs the 4gb
G'day Random,
While this rare GPU performs similar to your MSI GTX780Ti Lightning (although not now it died😭) it shows that not all hard to find GPUs are as desirable as others...
even compared to broken ones.
I actually STILL use a GTX 780 ti in a first gen ASUS P6T Deluxe v2 board with a Xeon X5670! It still is a pretty decent system for my needs. 👍👍
G'day @@arthurmann578, yeah depending on the games you play older parts are still perfectly fine for gaming,
also nVIDIA crying because 4060Ti wasn't getting reviewed with RT ON & DLSS3 FrameGen "because that is how all gamers will use them" is just crap as many people don't play any games that have those features so they are worthless in cases of people like me just wanting to upgrade from 1080p-1440p or 1080p/1440p-4K.
Personally, I would love to see a revisit of the R9 Nano. 4gb of vram but with a 4096! Bit memory bus. Gcn 3.0 architecture
Coi: I have one as my daily driver.
ReFlashed AMD W5500s 8GB are being sold on AliExpress as RX-5500. They show 2560 shaders, so one would assume it's a de-tuned 5700XT, but no, it's a workstation card reflashed...Would make an interesting subject for a video tho. I got one for about $70...replacing an RX-480 with it.
Upgraded this card to an rx 6600. Put the 5500 in an old i7 6700 optiplex with an upgraded psu also. just had to move the 2.5" harddrive for it to fit...
Finally a RX 5300 video! Oh wait wrong card, great video still!
I was fortunate enough to get a 6gb GTX 1060 from a coworker for $20.
How do you manage to keep your GPU temperatures so low? Especially on RDR2? My GPU hits 70+ degrees after couple of minutes of gameplay and that's with VSync and RivaTuner to keep the FPS to 75.
A quick clean before using definitely helped
@@RandomGaminginHD I always keep my PC clean blowing it with air a couple of times a month. Weird thing is that other games that I have have never reached high temps with VSync, but when it's turned off it goes 70+ only on RDR it goes 70+ even with VSYNC or RivaTuner with Custom settings
I actually just got one of these ordered. I cant afford the best of the best, but this is definitely an upgrade.
8Gb version though
I just recently bought one for $55 on ebay ($60 after taxes) gonna be running this into my Home server pc that I got in my living room, lately been playing smaller titles with the Ryzen 3 2200g apu and its been pretty decent figured I'd go with an amd gpu so it can merge their apu/gpu memory. At the meantime this is really just made to have my younger siblings get into pc gaming
I almost expected to hear about the rx5500 non xt when i saw the picture.
I used to have an rx5500xt 4gb. Yeah, not amazing but usable. Especialy if you lower the texture quality.
I was thinking the RX 5300, because I saw information about those.
I did find one of these on Marketplace for 40 dollars, cheaper than what GTX 960's go for in my area. Could be a decent pick up for me since I'm running a GTX 670.
Would probably go with a 1060 (6GB), 1660/1660S/1660Ti or RX580 over this card due to the lack of availability and the lack of VRAM. But still, not a bad experience!
Card was specifically designed to run late PS4 titles in PS4 Pro quality. It was released in late 2019 (one year before PS5) , and would cover all games from that period since there were no exclusive PS5 titles just yet.
Another great review 🎉
Are you keeping your motherboard or replacing it? If keeping, I'd go for an i5-13600k. If getting a new motherboard, I'd try to find an AM5 motherboard for a decent price and get a 7800X3D.
My 12600kf handles everything I throw at it gaming wise without a hitch. I suspect you'll do well as a content creator with a 12th or 13th gen 700 sku.
one thing i noticed is that the power consumption was under 100w or even around the low 90s the whole time. I wonder if you could undervolt the card a little bit and then maybe lower the clocks to make it max at 75w, then jump the sense pins on the power connector to get it to run on systems without pcie power cables.
rofl I knew it exactly as soon as you started the video I got one of them in my backup test bench pc behind me it's not 2 bad of a card and that's weird mine works on Hogwarts no problem got it for like 130$ off Facebook sales in 2020.
Love Spider-Man remastered in the benchmarks, but have you ever considered doing miles morales as well?
RGIHD WE LUV U
😁
You buy stuff so I don’t have to. You’re a king mate.
I have to brag. I just bought a 5600xt for $75 USD. It's a Asus oc model 3 card width. It does really well for the money. Like new condition.
Just picked up a dell oem rx 5700 xt for 90 bucks plus shipping and it's amazing
1:57 Thought there was dust/hair on my phone 😂
I'm using this card rn in my PC lol
£70 and you didnt even get a sticker for the centre of the fan ?!?!?!
I'm still using a RX5500XT 8GB
The numbers suggest a RX580 outperforms a RX5500 despite the newer card being 4.0 PCIe interface compared to the 580's 3.0 so it is a close run thing. 580 also uses a bit more power if that is a consideration so smaller PSU for the 5500 is a plus there too. Its quite remarkable that a gDDR6 model struggled hard against a lesser gDDR5 model but you will notice the bus is double on the 580 proving again that you can have the newest bits but strangled by that damned bus interface.
More likely driver or Vram issues. 5500XT 8GB working about same as RX 590 OC but with lower power requirements
"Only available in prebuilt PCs..."
👀 Now that's how you get my attention!
i know it sounds strange but i really like the way thae gup looks... think i'll try to get my hands on one... thanks for the review on this card...
Thanks for watching :) it’s a great compact card :)
Did the PC crash at 1:45? Maybe GPU core is unstable if Windows froze solid. Just saw some squares! Looks like classic GPU core instability, usually only happens when core is OC'ed too much. That would normally be like it telling me to turn the GPU frequency down pronto!
Upgrade your CPU to the 5600x3d if it comes out this year. Would like to see if its better than 13th gen Intel
I need a advice from the pc master race community,
I have a RX 6800 XT and plus a bit of cash should I trade it in for A RTX 3090 or should I just buy the next gen cards?
RTX 4080 or the RX 7900 XTX?
The RX 6800 XT is still a beast even these days I just want a Powerhouse graphics card that surpasses this GPU.
Its interesting my GTX 970 gets similar performance to this card minus MW2 which completely kills FPS whenever waterphysics are in question from 80fps to 35
Damn. That bank shot in COD was a bit crazy. 🤣
Good card, got one for my boy about a year ago
Nice :)
Almost bought one of these during the shortage😮💨
All small form factor GPUs should have the power plug at the end. ✌
My friend has a HP Pavilion with this exact same card. He thought it was the 1650 Super variant, but he's kinda computer illiterate and didn't know how to check the specs properly lol. The RX 5500 isn't a bad 4GB card, in fact it's roughly between an RX 570 and 580 (with the XT variant pushing closer to the 580/590). But for some reason, his PC refuses to allow OC stability testing in Adrenalin without crashing immediately, as well as successfully installing Ryzen Master altogether. It has the 5600G, and he's got a 3200Mhz 32GB RAM kit but due to the lack of a proper BIOS (thanks, cheap ass HP lol) he can't set the speed above 2666Mhz. I was curious to see if Ryzen Master would allow for setting manual RAM clocks (since that's the case on pretty much any other Ryzen system I've worked on), but in all honesty I think he just needs to do a clean install of Windows at this point since those are far from the only odd quirks the prebuilt has. But yeah, due to the RAM speed the performance of his 5600G is impacted somewhat & the low level of L3 cache doesn't help either. However, paired with the 5500 he doesn't see much of a CPU bottleneck anyway. I've recommended that once he upgrades the proprietary motherboard and PSU, the RX 6700 & 6700 XT are what he should consider as upgrade options. He mainly plays Rust, and while the 5500 seems to manage decently enough at 1080p low/med (between 40-80fps), those RDNA 2 cards would allow him to play high refresh 1080p/1440p native res and have a great experience.
Asking for cheap 1440p option ( RX5700 non-XT, available for 130 Euros now used or AliExpress ELSA mining cards with some guarantee, +BIOS flash to XT ) vs 7600 comparison.
Since the 7600 has some drawbacks due to its interface in higher res with high textures, the results may surprise and make it an even worse choice.
Heellooo, do you think the RX6900XT is still a good choice now that the 7000s are out? :(
hi Random!! big fan!
Proud owner of this gpu 🗣️🔥
A bit off topic, but I have an interesting request.
Seeing as recent gen Radeon graphics cards have very similar number in name shared with GPU's from 12 years ago namely the XFX Radeon HD 6790 1GB GDDR5 and the XFX Radeon RX 6750XT Speedster Swift319 12GB GDDR6 model I was wondering if you could do a 12 years comparison video using two comparatively relevant systems to see just how far we have come over the past 12 years.
The two systems could be as follows:
12 year old machine -
CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 4 cores 4 threads .
Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G45 MS-7752 Intel Socket LGA 1155
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X 16GB (2×8GB) DDR3 1866Mhz 240pin PC3 - 12800 memory kit.
Storage: SanDisk Ultra 3D NAND 500GB SATA 3 6GB/s internal 2.5" SSD.
GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6790 1GB GDDR5.
DVD drive: Liteon DVD/R/RW Multi-disc
Power Supply: Corsair 550watt Semi-Modular PSU.
Case: Any mid tower case will do.
Current Gen system -
CPU: Intel Core i5 13600KF
Motherboard: MSI B760P Pro Wifi Intel Socket LGA 1700 DDR5.
RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 series 32GB (2×16GB) 288pin DDR5 5200 (PC5-41600) memory.
Storage: SanDisk Ultra 3D NAND NVME M.2 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD.
GPU: XFX Radeon RX 6750XT Speedster Swift319 12GB GDDR6 graphics card.
DVD/Blu-Ray: Optional.
Power Supply: Corsair CXM650 650watt Semi-modular PSU.
Case: Mid-tower case with a splash of RGB lighting,.... because it's both cool looking and silly! 🤪
Do side by side comparisons to see just how much difference 12 years in advances in technology have made.
Then compare the original launch MSRP of all the parts for the 12 year old system vs the new 2022/23 system and see if value for money has gotten better or worse over the last 12 years. How much performance per British Pound (Quid) did we get 12 years ago vs today?
This is a good opportunity to provide some real value for money insight into today's market and maybe even making a reasonably educated guess for what the future might bring.
And to help cover the cost of buying the computer parts and producing the video you could sell the two machines once you're done with the reviews and maybe turn a tidy profit. 💷😊👍
Actually there is an rtx 2060 super that is also only used in hp + Lenovo prebuilt systems and it looks exactly the same as this 5500 but without the Radeon word of course 😅 you might want to look out for one of these 2060 supers instead of this one as they have 8gb of vram and is more powerful and here in turkey they are going for almost the same amount of money around 130-180$ used and it's been a long time since you revisited the 2060s
Is that a medicinal herb plant in the background?
😂
Have the laptop version of this, the 5500 m. Basically the same performance, 4 gigs of vram is becoming an issue tho
I find it very funny how hogwarts and star wars jedi survivors (dead ea game) wasnt starting, but cyberpunk 2077.
Does this Card starts Forspoken, Tomb Raider, or the last of us part 1 if i asking?
at the risk of making videos too long, have you ever considered making a list of "games to benchmark" with any CPUs / graphics cards, to make them more "standardized"?
I love your work on the older stuff, but also slightly disappointed when there's some games not to be found (I guess you just pick whatever is the most "popular" nowadays?), outside of inability to run them, of course
just my opinion though! you can just skip what i said if you find it very taxing
i'd still watch your vids either way😄 cheers!
Woo first! Love the content
I've always been an Nvidia user and I am pretty ignorant when it comes to AMD products. So, question: are AMD graphics cards with "XT" basically AMD's version of Nvidia's "Ti"? That's what I've always assumed.
That is such an HP type of graphics card. Do a test with a gen 9 proc.
So only difference to the 4gb XT version is lower clocks?EDIT and one less DP output (at least according to techpowerup) Wonder if it can be overclocked to XT speeds then
i have a rx 570 8gb a gtx1650 4gb a rx 5500 that exact version rtx 2080 super rtx 3070 ti and a rtx 4060 ti i think its time i start doing test
Go 13600k or 5800X3D ❤
Random question; Would an i7-7700 bottleneck a GTX 1650? (not a 7700K)
No I don’t think so
Don't know if I'm too stoned or not but was that weed plants in your garden lol
The 5500 also supports resizable bar
