This DirectX 12 benchmark showed me right off the bat that AMD was in a bit of trouble. Here’s how they lined up in our first test, 3DMark’s Time Spy. I tested all five of the following cards on the same system, which included a six-core Intel Core i7-8086K processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB M.2 SSD. But as of this week, those cards have been replaced by newer, more powerful Nvidia cards, and now the targets have moved. When AMD was first pitching its new RX 5000-series, its competitors were the RTX 2070 and RTX 2060. Let’s get into the real promise of these new cards. That’s different from Nvidia’s new RTX 2060 Super, which uses a four-pin connector and includes both a USB-C port and even an old-school VGA port. Though quite a large power requirement differentiates them, both cards use a six-pin power connector. While it’s not quite as loud as that card, AMD’s newest are still louder than their competitors.Ĭonnectivity on both cards is limited to DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI. Similar to its predecessors, the RX 5000-series cards are blower-style designs, with a single fan compared to the three on the Radeon VII. The RX 5700 XT’s “dent” in the middle of the shroud is certainly head-turning, but perhaps not for the reason AMD might want. If anything, the RX 5700’s grey plastic looks a bit drab, even compared to previous designs like the Vega 64 or Vega 56. Trying to understand the difference between the Radeon VII and the Radeon RX 5700 XT isn’t as simple as it should be.Īs for the physical design of the cards themselves, they have a basic, minimal aesthetic. More importantly, these cards are AMD’s effort to undercut Nvidia in price and over-deliver in power across mid-range price points.įrom the specs alone, you might be a little confused as to how AMD intends to distinguish each of these cards from each other. These are the first cards in the new RDNA graphics architecture. More than that, it didn’t undercut the price of the RTX 2080 by any significant amount.ĪMD hopes to take a more aggressive approach with the Radeon RX 57 XT. The Radeon VII had its strengths, but it wasn’t the power move AMD needed to match the absolute brawn of the RTX 20 Ti. With the new “Super” versions of those cards, though, can the RX 57 XT still make the strong showing AMD needs? Making a dent in the market Armed with a new graphics architecture, these Radeon cards have their eyes set on Nvidia’s RTX 2060 and RTX 2070. With the Radeon RX 57 XT, AMD hopes to change all that. But AMD fights its war on two fronts, and in the graphics department, the company hasn’t picked up nearly as much momentum in the past couple of years. Ryzen processors have given AMD all the weapons it needed to wage its underdog battle against Intel. If you need any more information, please let me know. GPU: Sapphire Pulse RX 5700 XT (same issues happened with other models of the 5700 XT)

I would just leave it as that game is horribly broken, but this does happen with other games that I have never had issue with when I had my 1060. I should also add that about 80% of the time, these issues are happening with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Before I got my 5700 XT, I had a GTX 1060, and playing the same games I never had any issues like this. I have gotten many different ones, but that is the most recent one I can remember.

The latest BSOD was IRQ_not_less_or_equal. I do not think I have been able to go a single day since I got this card without some sort of crash.

A lot of games will simply just close out without giving an error, and more than half of the time it will simply blue screen. Hello, I have been having this issue since I got the card December 2019.
