I'm not sure if I haven't been paying attention, or if it just hit me with this review how much testing you guys have been doing. As you continue growing, and potentially gain more staff, it would not surprise me if you guys were the most recognized channel in scientific testing of hardware performance (if you aren't already.) I feel like calling you guys specialists, practitioners or even savants is an understatement. Though, I don't wish to pressure you guys with such high sounding expectations. If you guys stayed the way you are, I would continue to watch every video you publish.

My main problems with this are: aesthetics; none of the gears on the backplate mesh with each other, and performance; they could've fit a bigger fan in the middle had they omitted the RGB lights surrounding it.

[@PTMTerror]

Hey there. I own an AMD RX 5700 XT, the Sapphire Pulse more precisely, my first AMD card after a period of nvidia ownership. However, I've been having a lot of problems with it (BSODs and blackouts mostly), in which i initially thought it was driver related. However, it looks like it was a problem related to the PCI-E riser, which is gen 3.0, but the whole system was running on 4.0. After some research, the riser was indeed a cause of issues, and in order to solve these I simply forced my motherboard to run on PCI 3.0 (Gigabyte X570 ITX here, which has such option). Many other people might be having the same problems, and blaming AMD for it (like i initially did :D), but in fact it's an issue related to outdated PCI-E risers. Im using a compact case (FTZ01-E), so I have to keep using the riser. I was lucky the Gigabyte MB allowed for a PCI Gen change in the bios, otherwise i'd be stuck with this. Maybe you'll find this piece of information useful to use in one of your videos in the future. Or not :D. Eitherway, the issues are gone and the whole system is stable now. It's a pitty AMD are lacking on tech support for these kind of diagnostics, as I've only seen one of their tech support personnel answer to a client about this potential riser issue. Their adrenaline website (or the absence of it) could also use an overhaul in which patch and driver updates/news would be more easily communicated with the community, sort of what the Geforce Experience has.

[@1973Hog]

I guess there is something to be said about not being on the bleeding edge of technology. Hence, I went with an X470 motherboard .... at least for now. I have no need for PCI-E 4.0 yet.

[@ReZShot]

Wish mine was that simple but mine keeps crashing.. I went through changed the settings and still crashing.. I'm running a msi gaming edge x570, ryzen 9 3900x, 62gb ram, windows 10 pro, 750w power supply and the ASRock phantom gaming Rx 5700xt. It works fine with davinci resolve and normal use but once it loads a game is quickly over heats and crashes :/

[@justinjones6302]

thank you ive been waiting for your review on this card

[@Danmandingo]

Such a strange dilemma right now, for those of us interested in getting a new GPU. You can buy a 5700XT card. You can purchase one of those new 20 Series SUPER cards. But also being mindful, that Nvidia is set to go onto 7nm, and release their new GPUs by the 2nd quarter of next year. Then there's BIG NAVI looming in the distance. While Intel is ALSO about to be venturing into the GPU market as well...

[@Elven_Red]

Personally, I went with the cheap but reliable Pulse model and will keep an eye out on the new releases next year, maybe grab an upgrade towards the end of the year once everything has normalized from issues like garbage launch drivers and artifacting high end cards that we see from both companies every now and then

In the Netherlands, reference 5700xt = $ 471. Asrock taichi 5700xt = $ 621. These prices are converted from euro to dollar

[@Nathanael_Forlorn]

Most of Europe is getting shafted for years now with price conversion for pc parts.

[@lgmtk]

Same in Israel, this is why you need to convert what Steve says about price to percentages and to your currency (explanation for those who don't follow). E.g if card1 costs $400 (for sake of example) and Steve says card2 costs $440, that's a 10% increase in price - for better or for worse. If then card1 costs $600 (euro converted) in your country and card2 costs $660, then it is fine - you can't really escape your country's taxes and/or import fees. BUT if card2 costs $680 then you can say it costs "more than it should". I have learned long ago that unless you can get a good price suddenly in Amazon or in a local retail, you will HAVE to accept this price % difference, otherwise you will never buy a new card because they will all seem "overpriced".

[@lgmtk]

@Keretizein x Exactly. The 2070S is ~10% more expensive where I live so might as well go for 5700XT. Then again, some 1080tis go for same price as 5700XT here so maybe getting that would be smarter, but I really don't want to buy a used card.

[@hisgen01]

@Zwenk Wiel I searched the internet for an average percentage of tax on electronics and goods in the USA and found a list that shows an average of about 7% tax. (normally between 2,9% and 7,25% depending on the state) The price of the taichi 5700xt with 7% tax included is $ 513,- Converted to Euro's: € 465,- The true difference in price between the USA and the Netherlands in this case is $ 108,- and I still think this is quite a lot actually, hahaha ;)

My local Micro Center has Strix 5700 xt OC for $20 cheaper than this card. Buildzoid's PCB review of he ASUS card was very positive. I am waiting to see a full and thorough review now. It will most likely run very cool, maybe even the coolest while it maintains the other typical 5700 xt performance levels. All in all, an ASUS Strix for $20 more than some other cards, having better component parts and running cooler than most cards, that $20 might not matter too much.Though I figure many gamers have a tendency to stick to a build brand that they have or prefer when it comes down to a $20 +/- cost difference. $40 or $60 off of someone's preference can be a deal breaker.

These are the only 4 that are high up there in benchmarks are worth it in my eyes as #5 and #6 are both the sapphires at 110% and 107%. I compare benchmarks with some youtubers and in games like rdr2 and gta V i keep up with the 2070 super with the asrock taichi. If you compare this with the thermals it may just be one of the best cards, it was just expensive at release but the price is defiantly going down.

Presently the nitro+ is running around $460 on Newegg. The MSI Gaming X is only $450 and is probably the best performer of the lot, also finding its way into my build. Hopefully you guys can get that card to review.

[@BOLOYOO]

But MSI is slot-ripper (heavy af) and don't have all memory fully covered with thermal pads. How it impact reliability? I don't know, but personally I don't want test it and went into Nitro+.

[@mantisman230]

I know it's a heavy beast, but it's very structurally rigid and sagging isn't particularly bad. It runs cool and quiet even compared to the red devil and has the lowest VRM temperature out of them all according to hardware unboxed. I would argue VRM cooling is more important for longevity over pure memory temperature, which is also fine for the card.

[@BOLOYOO]

@@mantisman230 But If memory die, card die. Doesn't matters if VRM is still ok :D

[@mantisman230]

Yeah, and the memory temperature is well below maximum and is on par with most of the other cards. It's not going to give out any time soon. Nitro+ stripped down components and is too expensive for what they did to the board.

[@Xaltar_]

IMO, I think it's great that ASRock somewhat over engineered this thing rather than tried to cut corners to keep pricing and costs down. I do think they over did it a little but better that than a flagship design that performs like an entry level model and ruins their shiny new rep in the GPU market. It's got to be tough breaking into an already saturated market. With the last (and their first) wave of GPUs they were panned for high noise levels and weak/inadequate cooling. I imagine it's a fine line between adequate/profitable and overbuilt/expensive when it comes to cooling solutions. It looks like they have not quite found the sweet spot yet. I do like what I see, learning from feedback and trying to do better. They overshot with the Taichi but given pricing will come down and how well this GPU performs it could still be a great option when priced better. As it stands it will likely only appeal to people who are willing to pay a premium for the aesthetics. IMO it's not all that unrealistic with the cost of an aftermarket GPU cooler (water or air) costing significantly more than the delta in price between this and more competitively priced GPUs. I am a huge fan of how well the GPU design compliments the X570 Taichi motherboard design. What this GPU does is allow even a relative novice PC builder to put together a system that looks custom built with minimal effort and know how. I would not be surprised to see the likes of newegg and amazon pushing bundles with this and the X570 Taichi. Great review Steve.

Dreaming of HBM2, but the fact that the architecture design has compatibility for it doesn't mean it could be implemented on a non-silicon level, which means Navi could never run on HBM. Future RDNA cards - who knows, probably ones more compute-oriented. Either way, this kind of customization is nowhere to be found on today's market.

[@timothyandrewnielsen]

ASrock does a great job sometimes, like with the taichi motherboard design. But this is gawdy.

Love how in some charts the only card beating the Nitro+ is the Nitro+ itself

[@Hotrob_J]

I wonder if XFX took your advice to heart for the Thicc III ultra

[@fanman8677]

i got this for 430 and comes with a free router dontcare for the router but in alaska it was one of my best options

[@rcradiator]

Is there going to be a review for the Strix 5700 XT?

[@hkiller8885]

480 USD...Is Asrock the new Asus or Razor?

[@holo6883]

Is the nitro+ more durable than the gigabyte gaming OC?

[@bigsmackisback2052]

so many haters to this channel, the devils in the details and this guy leaves none out. if you dont care for the in depth view dont watch LOL

[@jorno1994]

it surely would fit a steampunk themed build though

So how does it perform? It has higher clocks than any other 5700 XT. Would've been nice to know how it performs compared to a cheap 2070 Super for example. Also, it apparently has six display out ports. Could've been mentioned, since you are actually getting something extra for the extra money. I know you're sick and tired of reviewing 5700 XTs, but this seemed a bit on the lazier side compared to your other reviews.

He addresses this at the end of this video. The reason why he's not showing any performance benchmarks compared to other cards is because all 5700 XT models are pretty much identical, performance-wise. This particular card may have the highest clock speed out of all of them, but going above 2GHz yields pretty much no benefit for the Navi cards. If you want a comparison to the 2070 Super, just find a different 5700 XT on any other review site, and look at the comparison there. Then buy whichever 5700 XT has the best cooling and simply overclock/undervolt to your heart's content.

I'm also really disappointed that the six display outputs wasn't mentioned. This is one of the few (only?) mid to high end cards on the market with 6 display outputs, it is a real point of difference. Sapphire used to have "Flex" model cards with extra display outputs which were significantly more expensive than their other models but it has been a long time since I've seen a graphics card with 6 display outputs. Also none of the current NVIDIA line up even counting customer boards seems to have more than 4 display outputs. Finally the Asrock page for this card it's listed in third place as one the features after "Taichi Triple Fans" and "3D Metal Backplate" so I don't know how it was missed because it is plain to see on the card.

Looks like a GPU that Willy Wonka would have in his office.

Please test the Gigabyte Windforce. Also, what do you have to set the power target to make the fans on the best 5700 XT cards stop spinning entirely? 🤓
