AMD Radeon RX 5700

We’re all surprised, as Jarred Walton has found a GPU that makes him happy.

The Radeon RX 5700 is the second of AMD’s new Navi 10 graphics cards, sporting the new and improved RDNA architecture, and playing second fiddle to the RX 5700 XT’s leading role. The RX 5700 uses the same Navi 10 GPU as the other 5700 models, but AMD disables four Compute Units and 256 cores, as well as dropping the boost clock by 180MHz. That’s typical for the second-tier product for any GPU, and the reason comes down to chip yields. RX 5700 cards likely won’t hit the same clock speeds as the 5700 XT, no matter how hard you try to overclock.
