It is currently running a Ryzen R7 3900X and 32GB of 3600MHz of G.Skill TridentZ Neo memory and free of any bottlenecks that would hinder performance. We are currently in the process of updating our test bench, so the 5500 XT, GTX 1660, and Radeon RX 590 were each tested in my personal system.
Each game was set to the ultra presets or highest settings where that wasn’t possible and anti-aliasing was disabled. PerformanceTo test the performance of the card, I ran it through our stable of test games.
Amd radeon rx 5500 xt 4gb 1080p#
Still, 1080p with RIS looks crisper than standard 1080p any day of the week. The same is true here, though to a lesser degree. With its introduction in the 5700 series, I was impressed to see that it elevated 1440p gaming almost to the level of 4K.
Radeon Image Sharpening (RIS) is also available to provide an enhanced image by intelligently applying image sharpening only to areas of the image that need it. Anti-Lag is a competitive favorite as it reduces input lag by synchronizing the processing of the CPU and GPU. As a Navi card, the 5500 XT brings with it the same suite of features we found on the 5700 series. If the trimmed down hardware weren’t enough, descriptions like that clearly position the 5500 XT as an entry-level Navi gaming card. The footnotes go on to explain that these figures were taken from Borderlands 3 and Rocket League on High settings, neither of which is the most demanding visually. AMD’s product page describes the card as capable of “up to” 60 FPS in AAA games and 90 FPS in eSports. Compared to the 5700 XT, the 5500 XT is a substantially cut back graphics card. The GPU supports up to 8K video output and AMD Eyefinity for multi-display support. These outputs allow for high bandwidth connections and open the door to HDR and high resolution, high refresh rate displays (not that this card is a good fit for that in performance). When it comes to display support, the 5500 XT we tested features three DisplayPort 1.4 connections and a single HDMI 2.0b output, though this could vary between models. These are modest overclocks (as is usually the case for any overclocking with Navi) and shouldn’t have any major impact on performance. Our version features a slightly enhanced base clock of 1685 MHz and an expected “game clock” of 1737 MHz over the reference spec of 1717 MHz. We completed our testing with the ASRock Challenger version of the card, which joins most others being released with a slight factory overclock. As you might imagine with these more modest specs compared to the other cards in the chart above, it sips power with a TDP of only 130w. With a 128-bit bus and a speed of 14 Gb/s, it’s able to process at a rate of 224 Gb/s.
It’s available in two memory configurations, 4GB and 8GB GDDR6, the former of which comes in a bit cheaper at $169 versus $199 but with VRAM-hungry games becoming more and more common, it’s worth spending a bit extra for the added 4GB of memory. Under load, it can spin itself up to 1845 MHz for added performance. It features 1408 GPU cores and a Base Clock speed of 1607 MHz. The 5500 XT uses the Navi 14 chip, which is just under 40% smaller than the Navi 10 chip used in the 5700 series. Like the RX 57 XT, it’s made on the 7nm process, which offers major benefits to power efficiency and performance compared to last generation’s Polaris GPUs. The Radeon RX 5500 XT is the third Navi card to hit the market. It’s a welcome change from the typical months-long delay we’ve seen from both Team Red and Team Green in the past. That means gamers have their choice of stock models, factory overclocks, and cooling solutions thanks to the plentiful array of choices from add-in board partners (AIBs). Coming in at $199 for the 8GB version and $169 for the 4GB version, it’s the most affordable RX 5000 card yet, but does it offer the performance boost to warrant an upgrade?ĭesign and FeaturesUnlike the RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT, there’s no reference version of the RX 5500 XT being sold by AMD itself. That appears to be the company’s goal again with the Radeon RX 5500 XT, a budget-oriented card for gamers playing at 1080p. When we reviewed the Radeon RX 5700 XT (see it on Newegg), it was clear then that AMD wasn’t out to beat Nvidia in sheer performance but instead by offering an outstanding value for the dollars spent. Navi is here and we finally have competition in the graphics card market again.
