Great affordable GPU; very good price/performance ratio

Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2020

I'm an occasional gamer upgrading from a RX 570 and the performance difference is very noticeable (more than 70% improvement); this card is connected to an Asus B350 ROG board with a Ryzen 5 2600X CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 650W power supply. The card itself is working great, it is very quiet, doesn't get hot and power consumption is reasonable (160W, that is just 10W more than my old card); although its size is a bit bigger than I expected I had no fitting issues in my mid-tower case. After connecting the card I had to uninstall the previously installed Radeon drivers (which I keep up to date), restart and then install the drivers again before the card was recognized correctly. My card came with the latest version of the new BIOS (v1.02 from Sapphire's website) so I didn't have to worry about having to flash anything.

UPDATE: I highly recommend this card; after 1 month of usage (including some 1440p gaming on Fortnite in High, FIFA20 and Diablo 3 in Ultra settings) I wish I could give it 6 starts. I haven't seen any artifacts or black screen related issues that some people have reported.

Great card for 1080p gaming

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a great card for gaming at 1080p as your able to max out the settings for most games and stay well above 60 fps. However I cannot speak for every game so I would recommend looking at some benchmarks for this card if your curious about a certain game.

As far as the driver issues that revolve around this and other AMD cards I have experienced some issues but now with the latest drivers on all of my components I have had no issues. Just make sure other components like your monitor display driver are up to date because that caused some blue screens for me but since updating it, it hasn't happened again.

As far as I can tell this has the updated V BIOS and performs well. I leave the card to its default value because when I tried to manually overclock it, it would crash every once in a while. However it's possible that the next driver update could fix it but its not much of a performance gain over the default boost.

The Perfect GPU for $300

Build Includes:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 with Arctic 34 Esports Duo
GPU: Sapphire Rx 5600 XT
Motherboard: B450M Dsh3 WiFi
Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16Gb: 3200Mhz
Evga 600w 80 GD Power Supply
Case Fans: AsiaHorse RGB FS 9002 ( 5 Pack)
Computer Case: Darkflash Dlm21 White Mesh
Cables: McDream Sleeved Rainbow Cables
Meet Holiday: Darling in the Franxx Stickers

I like the design on the shell of the GPU it has a nice look even though it’s hard plastic. The only things that’s kind of sucks about the look of the card is that the red led is not changeable.

The Performance of the card is great I get around 100~130 FPS on High settings in Modern Warfare and it never goes above 50~60 degrees. That’s good because Modern Warfare is a pretty demanding game. You could probably get 144Fps on Competitve settings.

And if you are wondering why I have two pipes on the card instead of the usual one. It’s because I got lucky and got the RX 5700XT cooling. Which I’m not sure if everyone will get that.

Great value @ ~$280 price point.

The pricing for computer components has recently gone absolutely stupid!
I purchased this card for a little over $300 and felt like that was overcharged.
In my defense, my previous computer had finally died and I wanted to build a computer.
Thank goodness I bought and built when I did, the prices for components has skyrocketed to INSANE levels.
I honestly can't recommend buying any computer stuff at this time. From the research I've done, this is a great card at the $270 - $295 price range, spending more would be giving manufacturers and retailers the wrong signal. Which, unfortunately, is what I did.
Bottom line: Is it a good card? IMO yes, but not for $400+ usd.

Final thought? Computer built, have digital connection, time to go play outdoors.

2 years Later-Great card for eGPU

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2020

Verified Purchase

Just an update - two years later this card still performing fantastic. Still working solid in both MacOS and through boot camp in windows. So happy I purchased years ago when it was well under $100. Hopefully I can look forward to more years of use since I won’t pay these stupid high prices for graphics cards.

This has been a great card and purchase for eGPU (Razer core x) and my MacMini. It’s running well in both MacOS and in Win10 through Bootcamp. It’s very quiet and the fans don’t kick on unless gaming or start up. This particular card isn’t listed on the Apple support site, but it is working for me and is the upgraded version with 14gps.
Once in Windows through Bootcamp I went to AMD website and downloaded the 2020 drivers, did a shut down/start up and card was recognized with no errors.
Benchmark tests in both operating systems have provided better than expected results.
I am happy I decided on this card. I’ll update my review if needed.

It works as expected base on benchmarks/reviews

Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2020

The RX 5600 XT with the updated bios (came updated already) works really well. Unfortunately, windows doesn't install the correct driver out of the box like it did with my Nvidia GTX 1650 Super, but a quick download of the Radeon software remedied that, and even lets you overclock and use your phone as a dashboard (if seeing performance specs matter to you). I am happy with it.

Honestly, if you think you're going to squeeze more performance out by overclocking though, it's unlikely. The new bios puts you really close to max performance. I was able to overclock the GPU clock and memory by a little, but it resulted in 1-2 FPS increase, which really isn't worth the potential instability. I'm happy with it running the new bios.

Great card, horrible shipping

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2020

Verified Purchase

Ordered this from Amazon after NewEgg shipped an opened product as new, and then was out of stock. The card runs great. The fans will actually turn off, even in Performance mode, if the card is cool enough and not under load, which might be disconcerting for some.

My greatest bugbear with this order was that a video card this expensive just was tossed in an unpadded shipping bag and thrown in the mail. The packaging does show mild impact damage on the back, with a matching dimple on the antistatic bag where some of the impact got through the foam padding in the box, but the card seems to have survived the trip.

Between this and a similar issue with a processor, I think I'll be taking my computer part purchases back to NewEgg, thank you very much.

Great value and performance

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2020

Verified Purchase

To start off: I am not a tech guy. I do not know the specifics of how this card stacks up against others technically speaking. I have built 2 pc's in the past month and used this GPU in one of them as a replacement for another similarly priced GPU that was very hot and VERY loud even though it had excellent reviews. I had no complaints about the performance of that other GPU but this one performs similarly on all games that I have tried and it runs cooler and much, MUCH quieter. The only gripe would be that it is large but it fits fine in my case. Would buy again at this price point.

DiaplayPort is almost necessary

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2020

Bought my RX 5600 CT two days after it dropped for a good deal, and boy am I satisfied with the powerhouse that it is! Only one 8-pin PCI power connector required - good for smaller form factor builds with limited cable management, and 150W of power draw isn't half bad for the performance you get in exchange.

The use of AMD's Redeon Adrenalin software also makes it incredibly easy to overclock the card to what it can handle on its own. Mine's currently running a 4% higher clock speed (1820 MHz) and memory clock at 3% (1800MHz) just by moving a few sliders, putting it staunchly at the performance of a stock RX5700. Combining the Adrenalin software features (blur scaling, resolution inflation, etc) along with Sapphire Trixx boosting utilities, seeing absurd framerates with near-imperceptible loss of quality makes this a perfect card for someone seeking to set up a 2k gaming rig, or even those comfortable with a 2 or 3 1080p monitor setup.

My only flaw is the use of an older monitor with HDMI, causing some anti-aliasing issues, if I had a newer monitor or one that supported DisplayPort the issue would not exist - though that is my only issue!

1080p KING

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2020

This is about as good as it gets for 1080p before you start to hit some massive diminishing returns. We've peeked in the most popular resolution. If you don't plan on getting a 1440p or 4k monitor anytime soon, this card will last you many years. This version also comes with the new speedy bios that basically makes this a 5700 in terms of fps, some other manufacturers didn't install the full speed boost, but since this card has such a well made cooler, they went all out and better yet, the fans are totally inaudible when gaming, and when on your desktop they don't even spin at all.

Upgraded from a blower r9 290, so the peace and quiet, and the far more stable gameplay are both super refreshing.

Overall, this is the best 5600xt you can buy, and i would highly recommend it.
