I got one on a good deal on Walmart, something like 280. I am glad to see it's the best one, though it's massive and it's usually 330, as they said in the video, for that prices it's better to just simply jump to the 5700.

[@TheNloth]

For anyone interested in the Gigabyte Gaming OC, they recently released a Rev 2 of the same card with 3 rather than 5 heat pipes. So YMMV when it comes to cooling. All the reviews so far are done with Rev 1.

When it comes to AMD cards, always go with Sapphire. I’ve never known them to release a bad quality card.

[@fleurdewin7958]

Agreed. I always buy from exclusive partners only who sell either green or red camp cards only but not both. Companies like Asus who sells card for both green and red camps always try to reuse their Nvidia coolers on AMD cards to save R&D and tooling cost, in the end, they dont fit perfectly right.

I think Steve has a bit of a Navi 10 hoarding problem... But I love this content. The last few years the quality of GPU's went down so much to the point where a lot of mainstream models are just bad and even high end ones are no guaranty of actually being good. Just about nobody was actually testing the models that where not sent around for review. Finally somebody is doing this and calling out manufactures when they make something bad.

[@ukvamp]

Love these videos. They helped me and i went for the Sapphire card, the near silent operation was what i liked about it and it was almost at the top of most of the tests. Got it for a bargain £290 here in the UK with free postage and recieved 2 free games too! The 5600 XT replaced my aging GTX 970 and I'm happy. I wanted a good cheapish upgrade that was better than my GTX 970 but not to expensive as I'd still like to consider one of the newer cards from AMD or Nvidia once they are announced and I've seen some tested 👍

[@lexwaldez]

Love my Sapphire Pulse. It's not quiet - it's basically silent. Much love.

[@Xaluber]

Went with the Gigabyte Gaming OC for a friends computer I just built. It’s a nice card, very cool and quiet. I didn’t feel comfortable flashing the 14Gbps bios on it though as there are so many reports of it not being stable afterwards. Some of these cards just can’t handle the higher clock speeds and there’s a reason they’re still shipping with the 12Gbps bios months after launch. Would have tried it if it were mine but I didn’t have much time for stability testing and the last thing I need is to send a friend home with a potentially unstable system.

My new Powercolor 5600xt Red Devil (14Gbps) costed me 292€. It's a beast. Definitely super quiet and temps are more than fine: 43-45 idle (30% fan) and 60-65 gaming ( fan 45%). I flashed the bios so my clocks now are: core 1770mhz, memory 1860mhz, boost 1820mhz. BENCHMARKS @1080p ultra settings: AC odissey (60 fps avg), Modern warfare (125 fps avg). Never had black screens or any kind of problems (amd 3600+b450+16gb ram 3200mhz). I don't know about the other brands he tested, but his Powercolor Red Devil's results are not reliable, completely different by my perfect experience with that card.

Great test :D I have Sapphire Pulse + Ryzen 5 1600 AF + G.Skill Ripjaws V 3200 on ASRock Fatal1ty K4. Every game I have tested runs smooth on ultra in 1080p and PC stays very quiet. It's easy to lower temperatures by speeding up the fans in more demanding games, or tun on 0 RPM mode on idle. I wish it had RGB LED instead of only red sign :( I don't know why they didn't make Nitro+ version, like 5500 or 5700, maybe it's too good :D

[@OmarKhanUK]

It's inevitable that viewers will come to these videos not for buying advice, but just for reassurance they bought the "right" card. I bought a Thick3Pro for my recent build as cost was a consideration, but it's also a beast of a card. With the BIOS flash it's been great.

I was going to get a B450/Ryzen 5 but that's off the table now. Congrats on the 500k subscribers... well earned!

Gigabyte Gaming OC came with 12 Gbps memory setting; flashed it to 14 Gbps and it's downstairs, folding at home as a stress test. Great temps so far, very happy!

[@dandaly7305]

I had folding failures until I increased power level 10% through Radeon software. Now stable as a rock, and the power increase didn't increase temperature or noise. Based on 3 weeks using it, I'd recommend the Gigabyte Gaming OC if you're comfortable increasing power level. If not, go for the Pulse.

[@dandaly7305]

In the interests of full disclosure, I have now had a couple of problems while Folding @ Home, on high settings, I would occasionally have a failure, and twice I got bad artifacting; this with the 10% power level increase. I updated from vbios FA0 to FA1, and have run for several days on high with no failures to fold, and no artifacting. I suggest upgrading the vbios. I used AMD's tool, since I had problems with directly flashing. I also stay current on Radeon drivers.

Can someone explain to me why Sapphire made the BE edition recently? It has the 14Gbps flashed bios that we can do with the existing Sapphire 5600 XT, but it removes the quick connect fans, the secondary bios and has a smaller heatsink and is marginally cheaper than the original. The card itself is a little smaller but that's it. It's a ton of stuff taken out with nothing added. Basically all you're getting is the 14Gbps BIOS released from the factory but with several things removed.

[@previousslayer]

Been very allergic to the Sapphire hype for a long time but in this case it's well-deserved. Powercolor's either skimping on cooling compared to proper-PROPER (as in, teardown included) review units, or uses cooling which doesn't make miles of a difference between different chips (reminder, their 5700s and 5700XTs were up there with Sapphire, and the Red Devil was sometimes better). Or, this is all measurement error and they're all in the same ballpark xD (That'd make sense for a lower-power chip.)

Used it with a 1080p 144 Hz monitor in LoL, Dota 2(vulkan), WoW(DX12), Witcher 3 etc. high graphics, made it work at max clock speed and it still rarely got to 60 degrees and when it did it just opened it's fans for a few seconds and it was back down to 50-55 all the time.

I really wanted to buy a 5600xt, but with 5700 variants consistently going on sale at 300-310 on Newegg, and the ability to flash a 5700xt for extra performance just prices out any 5600xt variations. There is a version between the MSI Gaming X and the Mech OC in the 5700 series. It is the MSI Evoke OC. and yes the thermals are much improved on it nowadays. Odd that they do not have an inbetween on the 5600xt.

Glad to see that ASUS got their act together. I have the 5700XT Strix, and I finally got annoyed and got an aftermarket vertical GPU mounting kit from Phantecks. No more mounting pressure issues. I even have the supposed "Fixed" Version.

I still went and bought the MSI Gaming X for that robust cooler as it's only 20 dollars more compared to the Gigabyte Gaming OC in my country.

Gigabyte Gaming OC and Sapphire Pulse the top 2 RX 5600XTs. Those same 2 models were the top RX 5700/XT models too, weren't they? Coincidence?
