![]() ![]() The company claims its improved performance-per-clock by 1.25X, and performance-per-watt by 1.5X. I wrote about these features in the RX 5700 XT review, so I'll paste that copy here for your perusal.Īs the first GPUs with RDNA architecture to roll off the assembly line, AMD points out that these are entirely new animals compared to its previous GCN architecture. Otherwise the cards are identical and the 5700 offers all the same features as its big brother, namely PCI Express 4.0 support, Radeon Image Sharpening and Anti-Lag, as well as the usual AMD stuff like Radeon Chill, ReLive, etc. Here's a chart AMD presented at E3 showing the main differences between the two: In comparison to the RX 5700 XT, the changes are pretty small and boil down to looks, streaming processors, and clock speeds, but with the benefit of using less power. In fact, let's have a look at the spec chart here: ![]() It sports 2304 streaming processors – which is the same number of CUDA cores found in the RTX 2070 non-Super. The GPU is roughly 10.5" long and has an eight-pin and six-pin connector, with a TDP of 185w.

Compared to the RTX 2060, well, there is no comparison the Nvidia card just looks much more premium, and includes LED lighting, which this GPU lacks. The overall design of the vanilla 5700 is extremely generic with a plastic and boxy blower shroud and no backplate, which is disappointing for a $350 GPU. And though Nvidia dropped the price on the 2060 while replacing the 2070 as an end of life product, the new Navi cards don't really factor Nvidia Super into the equation. ![]() ![]() If true, it's a pretty clever strategy on AMD's part, but it's not clear if AMD anticipated the Super GPUs showing up, as the Radeon RX 5700 still targets the original RTX 2060 as its chief competitor. AMD theoretically lured Nvidia into a trap by announcing higher than launch pricing, forcing Nvidia to go higher with its Super GPU pricing, then changed the prices two days before launch. ![]()
