## Description

PowerColor Red Dragon Radeon RX 5700 XT. Stream Processor: 2560 units. Minimum System Power requirement (W) - 650W.

Review: SO FAR, it's excellent - I like the design of this card, and comparative reviews show that it has good cooling on the GPU and Memory. So far, it is working exactly as I had hoped, I'm getting WAY more FPS in games at 1440p than ever before, and it is running nice and cool. Apparently there were some serious bugs with the drivers when the 5700/5700XT first came out, and so far those all seem to be fixed. No game I have played has had ANY issue, Xcom 2, Apex Legends, CS:GO, Outer Worlds, Dishonored 2, Fallout 4, Doom 2016, Deus Ex, have all run great getting expected frame rates and no problems. I understand this and many other 5700xt's are getting bad reviews because of driver issues, but that is NOT the fault of the card and thankfully most driver issues now seem to be resolved. If you have issues I highly recommend trying the 19.1.x driver version as that was always stable for me. I will update this review if I have *any* unexpected issues with the card, but so far its working perfectly, and very good performance for the price.
Review: Card works best with two separate cables for pci-e power - I'm able to play most games at 1440p at 120fps+. It's giving me the framerates I need to play at high/max settings at 1440p, and a definite performance improvement over the GTX 980Ti I was using previously. I bought this card as an upgrade from an aging nVidia GTX 980Ti. I have a ASUS ROG Strix X470-I Gaming ITX motherboard, 32GB of DDR3200 CL16 RAM, a AMD Ryzen R7 2700X, and a 1440p FreeSync display (LG 32GK650F). I needed a card that would fit in my Fractal Design Node 304 case, and many other 5700XT cards were too long to fit into the case and would block back of the power supply. This card is taller than most cards, but it's not as long as the other 5700XTs on the market, so it's able to fit into the Node case better. The Node case has a built-in mesh cutout on the side of the cover next to the GPU slot and that lets the dual fans on this card get cool air. Since I started using this 5700XT card, I had issues with the graphics driver crashing during long gaming sessions. AMD doesn't have the best reputation for their drivers so I thought it would eventually get fixed in a driver update. But as the weeks passed by and new drivers came out, it continued to randomly crash and I was regretting switching over to an AMD card. I starting to think about returning or selling this card. I didn't think I'd be the only one with this issue, so I searched some forum posts on Reddit and the usual tech websites. I saw that AMD recommends a 700W power supply for these cards, 600W minimum ( https://www.amd.com/system/files/documents/radeon-rx-5700-series-quick-start-guide-en.pdf ). My power supply is a 550W Seasonic Focus Gold+, which is just below AMD's minimum guidance. This suggested to me that the 12V pci-e cable was sagging in voltage and that maybe was what was contributing to making the card crash. On my previous card, the 980Ti, I just ran a single cable that had daisy chained 6 + 2 pci-e connectors and that supplied power to the two pci-e power connectors (one is 8 pin, the other is a 6 pin). The single cable was good enough for my old 980Ti, I thought would work with this new card. I managed to dig up a second pci-e 8 pin power cable and I attached it in parallel with the other pci-e cable going to this 5700XT card. After I gave each pci-e power connector its own cable, the card has been rock solid despite being on a slightly undersized power supply. The extra cable is now allowing the card to get the power/voltage it needs. It's Ohm's law: as the amperage goes up, the voltage goes down. The load is now split across more wires and there's naturally less resistance and less of a voltage drop. I'll have to remember this for future builds.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this include the current promotion: borderlands 3 or ghost recon breakpoint and 3 months of xbox game pass?**
A: Yes it does, you will see the promos in your cart at checkout! "3 months of x box and borderlands"

**Q: can this handle 4K gaming?**
A: Yes, this card is a beast. It will also do VR I believe. This is one of the best cards on the market right now. I max out my in game settings and it still runs above 100 frames a second. CPU is ryzen 3600x O.C to 4.4 ghz

**Q: Will this fit into a nzxt h1 mini itx case?**
A: the two fan model may fit, but the 3 fan model i would say no way it would fit its a really large card

**Q: Is anyone else experiencing regular game crashes with this card?**
A: I have not been having any issues, make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Performance, but I'm concern for the temperatures
*by K***R on June 11, 2020*

Well I bought this card as a upgrade from RX 570 for a huge performance boost, and it performs! Frame-rate almost double, 1440p is well doable above 60fps and it run more quiet. Unfortunately, this card runs really HOT. A bit of research says they generally run this hot under load, but it concerns me with the lifespan of this card. I would recommend adding additional case fans to your case especially at the top because this could possibly affect performance on other components like the CPU. Other than the heat, it a performs close to a RTX 2070, some sources saying even a little better. If you can get past the heat problem this runs really well. Most games are a breeze with this card especially at 1080p. Streaming with x264 at 1080p on Apex Legends is well playable within a 90-110fps average on High Setting with a Ryzen 7 2700. The H264/AVC encoder is somewhat usable for recording, although I would still recommend using x264 with a 6 cores or more CPUs. The Power consumption under load on this card at most went to 209 watts and you'll be fine a 650 watt power supply. The fans produce less sound compared to my rx 570 under load, and everything is untouched such as the fan curve, overclocking, and power limit, this is all done using the OC Bios. Undervolting may be considered viable option. AMD's drivers have definitely improved over time, I've had issue with the rx570 due to drivers that would cause crashes with some game, but they happened way less frequently now and the same with this card. Sure, its not perfect, sometime my entire system would lock up and I would get a "no signal" error with the monitor, my keyboard lights would shut off, the only solution is a restart, something to be weary of. Other than that, theres really no stability issues then. Also installation of the card will work fine with the AMD Radeon software for upgrades. Software is well usable but still needs more patches. Overall, for $400, this card had great price to performance. AMD had improved their software, and this card's only dual slot. The design in minimal and it fairly quiet even with the OC Bios. The only real complaint I have with card is the heat, its needs to be handle better, but it may be trying to live up to it's name.
