Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC 8G

The GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700 XT sets a new bar for gaming video cards. Powered by future-ready technologies, including 7nm Radeon RDNA architecture, GDDR6 memory, and PCI-Express 4.0, it takes on high-resolution gameplay without breaking a sweat. WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System keeps the GPU cool when the action heats up. Customizable RGB LED lets you create unique style using RGB Fusion 2.0 software. Performance tweaking only takes a few clicks with intuitive AORUS Engine utility.


WINDFORCE 3X COOLING SYSTEM

The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system features 3x 80mm unique blade fans, alternate spinning fan, five composite copper heat pipes, heat-pipe direct touch and 3D active fan functionality, together delivering an effective heat dissipation capacity for higher performance at lower temperatures.



ALTERNATE SPINNING

The GIGABYTE "Alternate Spinning" is the only solution that can solve the turbulent airflow of three fans. The biggest problem with the three fans is turbulence. Since the fans rotate in the same direction, the airflow direction is opposite between the fans, which will cause turbulent airflow and reduce heat dissipation efficiency. GIGABYTE turns the middle fan in the opposite direction, so that the airflow direction between the two fans is the same, reducing the turbulence and enhancing the airflow pressure.


UNIQUE BLADE FAN

The airflow is spilt by the triangular fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the airflow.


3D ACTIVE FAN

The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, and the fans will remain off when the GPU is in a low load or low power game. It allows gamers to enjoy gameplay in complete silence when the system is running light or idle.


HEAT PIPES DIRECT TOUCH GPU

The shape of the pure copper heat pipes maximizes the direct contact area with the GPU, enhancing heat transfer. The heat pipes also cover the VRAM through a large metal plate contact to ensure proper cooling.


COMPOSITE HEAT-PIPE

The composite heat-pipe combines thermal conductivity and phase transition to efficiently manage the heat transfer between two solid interfaces which increases cooling capacity.


GAME IN STYLE WITH RGB FUSION 2.0

With 16.7M customizable color options and numerous lighting effects, you can choose lighting effects or synchronize with other AORUS devices.


PCI-E 4.0 SUPPORT

Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC features PCI-Express 4.0 support, with a throughput of 16 GT/s and enables two times the bandwidth compared to PCI Express 3.0. With the PCI-Express 4.0 supported motherboard, and get ready for the next generation of PC gaming.


AORUS ENGINE

The cutting edge intuitive interface allows you to adjust the clock speed, voltage, fan performance and power target in real-time according to your game's requirements.
BUILT STRONG


EXTREME DURABILITY

The graphics card uses the better power phase design to allow the MOSFET to operate at lower temperature, and over-temperature protection design and load balancing for each MOSFET, plus the Ultra Durable certified chokes and capacitors, to provide excellent performance and longer system life.



PROTECTION BACK PLATE

The back plate not only provides an aesthetical shape, but also enhances the structure of the graphics card to provide complete protection.


POWER INDICATOR

The smart power LED indicator alerts the player when any PCI-E power supply is abnormal.

the last few weeks there at inboard partners have been releasing their own custom versions of the radiant rx 5700 XTS atom to the wild gigabyte was the first to send over their card so yeah we've got other ones coming too so don't worry so let's keep this review short and sweet and see how the gigabyte rx 5700 XT gaming as he stacks up against the reference version in our 

regular set of gaming benchmarks let's do a benchmarking thing it's been a little while, let's talk about how we're testing this we're using our permanent GPU test system which is running the gigabyte z3 70 horas Ultra gaming with an i7 8700 K and 16 gigs of XP GMX t30 at 3200 megahertz we included some other cards we've tested recently to give the 5700 X here gaming o.z results a little bit of context now we don't include 1% highs or lows with these tests 

because for us you would just introduce a whole lot of extra testing and I personally feel that getting an average framerate gives you a good indication of expected performance we use the benchmarks we do because they're consistent and have repeatable testing whereas some other tests have way too many variables and they're just not accurate the tests that we use give you a good indication of what to expect not to mention we don't have a hundred staff to run this ass 

all day we used three different benchmarks all that use the GPU in different ways to see what the performance looks like in different situations let's start off with shadow of the Tomb Raider this benchmark is built right into the game and it gives you a good indication of how this GPU will perform on your system for the 1080p test we saw the 5700 XT gaming OC get an average score of 133 frames per second for the 1440p test we saw the 5700 X he gaming OC get an 

average score of 92 frames per second for the 4k test we saw the 5700 XT Gambino's he get an average score of 51 frames per second I'm guessing you're gonna pick up on the pattern from these tests and you know how this stacks up against the reference card already so let's move on to unity and superposition for the superposition test we perform three tests in total we use the 4k optimized preset the 1080p extreme preset and a custom 1440p preset we depth of field and 

motion blur disabled for the 1440p custom tests who saw the 5700 xt gaming OC get an average score of 115 frames per second for the 4k optimized test we saw the 5700 xt gaming OC get an average score of 54 frames per second for the 1080p extreme test we saw the 5700 XC gaming OC get an average score of 39 frames per second the last batch of tests is with the Final Fantasy 15 benchmarking tool this is an updated version of the tool with quite a few optimizations to 

make this a far more accurate benchmarking tool for the 1080p test we saw the 5700 XC gaming OC render a total amount of 10,000 217 frames for the 1440p test we saw the 5700 xt gaming OC render a total amount of seven thousand three hundred and twenty nine frames for the 4k tests we saw the 5700 XC gaming Aesir and a total amount of four thousand and twenty nine frames based on those results to 5700 xt gaming OC at stock settings is looking to be on 

par with the reference card within that margin of error because the caller is a fair bit beefier than the reference card we did a little bit of mild overclocking without messing with things like power play tables are under vaulting we basically set it to the limits where afterburner would allow us cranking the core up to around twenty one fifty megahertz the merry clock up to nine hundred and fifty megahertz and the power limit all the way up let's see what happened 

 in shadow of the Tomb Raider we gained around three or four more frames an average with the overclock which is not that much , in Unigine superposition we gained around five or six more frames on average with the overclock,and in the Final Fantasy 15 benchmarking till we gained around one to two percent more performance with the overclock which is not a lot and it's kind of inside of that margin of error anyway if you did some more extensive overclocking by modifying the registry to unlock the power play tables you could 

probably push it a lot further but for most people experimenting with something like afterburner and not getting into under vaulting the card I think the games are okay what you're paying for with the aib cards is mainly better cooling and far quieter cards on average in our climate-controlled office which is set to 18 degrees we observed the 5700 XP gaming OC hit around 58 degrees with all the benchmarks on stock clocks and it was creeping up to around 64 

degrees when overclocked both of those results were with the automatic fan curve and the Faire never exceeding about 30% fan speed anyway not to mention that the gigabyte card is almost inaudible when we were running all the tests one thing you'll probably noticed as well with this card is it's got virtually the same cooler and back plate setup as the rest of gigabytes other gaming OCT cards that they've released in probably the last 12 months or so and side-by-side 

this card is almost identical to the 2070 super gaming OC speaking about the cooler the reference card isn't as loud as everyone says it is even on the open air test bench but yeah having a near silent card that runs cooler I think it justifies the extra pricing on the card just on its own this isn't just about the gigabyte card though this goes for all the part in the cards with better cooling let's hope the price has come down a little bit just before Christmas I think the 

partner cards are a little bit too expensive just a little bit so yeah let us know what your thoughts are on the AIB cards I'm curious to know what you guys have to say I literally have not watched any other reviewers content on any ARB cards because we've just been too busy in this there's just not enough hours in the day and personally overclocking GPUs for daily use can be pretty futile and it might not be worth the games with some GPUs you don't have to 

agree with me but yeah I just feel like some you just don't have that thermal Headroom or they're just they're not great overclockers the gigabyte radian 5700 xt AC is going 769 italian dolls and there are links in the description if you want to grab one of these cards for yourself .

Gigabyte Radeon Rx 5700 Xt Gaming OC 8G Graphics Card R57XTGAMING OC-8GD Video Card

the gigabyte rx 5700 XT gaming OC and yep it is another 5,700 XT graphics card but this one was actually selling pretty close to  MSRP I say was because well like most 5700 XT models availability has been a bit sketchy still gigabyte has informed me that their official MSRP for this particular model ,so and I guess I'd say we're just looking at a supply issue here that is driving the price up at certain retailers kind of sucks but that always 

seems to be the way with these new AMD products it's very rare they launched without some kind of issue or shortage and that simply have seen a few select models or few select a IB models that are selling close to AMD's suggested retail price so it's hard to say exactly what's going on here anyway I'll discuss pricing more towards the end of the review and making my recommendation for now let's take a look at gigabytes gaming OC to see what it's all about 

design-wise this really no surprises here I believe gigabyte introduced this design with the first wave of GeForce r-tx graphics cards about a year ago now so you've no doubt seen a similar looking products from gigabyte before just quickly what we have here is a windforce 3x cooler so that means there's 380 millimeter fans with the centrally located fans spinning in an 

alternate direction to that of the outer fans and this has been done to reduce turbulent airflow which improves cooley performance and reduces the operating volume unfortunately in the event of a failure the fans aren't easily replaceable like what we've found with the Sapphire Nitro+ but they can be individually replaced so at least there's that at first glance this looks like it might be a dual slot card but unfortunately it isn't and it will take up three expansion slots 

the card measures 49 point five millimeters wide 280 millimeters long and a hundred and fourteen millimeters tall so it's still quite compact for triple fan graphics card all up it weighs in at just nine hundred and sixteen grams which is actually quite light for an rx 5700 XT graphics card in fact that only makes it slightly heavier than the 980 gram MSI evoke OC and that wasn't a particularly impressive product so I'm not expecting the gaming OC to match the 

much heavier 5700 XT such as MSI's gaming X sapphires nitro plus or power colors red devil still those models are quite expensive and with a MSRP the gaming OC is cheaper flipping the card over we find the standard gigabyte backplate for these entry-level OC models it covers the entire card it's black and despite looking very plain and simple it is at least functional as gigabytes turned it into a heat spreader to extract 

heat from the PCB underneath using a series of large thermal pads then around at the i/o into the card we find a stock standard configuration three display ports and a single HDMI port there's also no dual BIOS switch or anything like that on this model so let's just whip the cooler off and take a look at what's underneath I have to say this looks to be a very cost-efficient design the copper heat pipes aren't nickel plated and rather than include a separate copper 

base plate gigabytes using the copper pipes themselves to make direct contact with the GPU this method is often referred to as direct touch and it's claimed to be more efficient it's certainly more cost efficient but how it compares to using a smoother dedicated copper base plate is hard to say in total the cooler weighs 442 grams and for context that makes it 25% heavier than the cooler found on the msi evoke OC but almost 70% lighter than the cooler used on MSI's 

gaming X version there's 5 6 millimeter copper heat pipes in total which transfer the heat through a series of aluminium fins and the same heatsink is used to directly cool the GDD i6 memory as well as the vrm and the heat from these components is extracted using some aluminium plates so it is a pretty basic cooler overall but with 380 millimeter fans pushing air over it it should work well enough over on the PCB we find an equally basic design it's 

essentially a more compact version of ambe's reference design the GPU gets a 7 phase vrm and power is fed into the graphics card using two PCIe power connectors there's a single 8 pin and then one 6 pin connector as usual for these graphics card reviews I've start by firing up f1 2019 and then run on a loop for an hour this saw the gaming OC peek at just 66 degrees in a 21 degree room inside the Corsair crystal 570 X fully populated with 120-millimeter fans and as 

usual we will compare this result with other 5700 XTS we've tested so far a little bit later on in the video now in order to maintain this temperature the fans spun at 1900 rpm and while that's a reasonably high fan speed the card was surprisingly quiet and again we'll compare the operating volume with other cards tested in a moment as for the GDD r6 temp we saw the memory peak at just 82 degrees which is very hot and certainly one of the hottest memory 

temperatures we've seen from an AIB model now for overclocking with the limits reached we saw a peak operating temperature of 75 degrees and this saw the fans spinning at between 1900 and 2000 rpm but again it was surprisingly quiet given the fan speed I wasn't actually able to run this card stable at the maximum 2115 megahertz 20 100 megahertz was as fast as I could go and they saw the GPU run at 1980 megahertz on average but I was able to max out the memory

 at 950 megahertz though this meant the memory was now running and a rather toasty 92 degrees okay so let's move on to some actual benchmarks as usual we're testing in our core oh nine nineteen or okay GPU test streak the CPUs been overclocked to five gigahertz and we have 16 gigabytes of ddr4 3400 memory the latest drivers available at the time of testing have been used and for this one we have just a few select games to look at first up we have Assassin's 

Creed Odyssey and as usual we see very little benefit from overclocking the 5700 XT in this title out of the box the gaming scene matched MSI's gaming X and the Azeri up Taichi then overclocked it was a frame faster than the overclocked Taichi and that's a pretty strong result but it was also just a 2 FPS increase over stock so kind of pointless we also see a very minor 4 percent performance bump for the manual overclock when testing with Forza horizon 4 but 

this is typical for a 5700 XT and finally performance was as expected when testing Michelle of the Tomb Raider the gaming OC didn't join 8% performance boost here and that allowed it to match these stock msi RT x 2070 super gaming x trio gigabyte has done a good job optimizing the gaming OC and here we see that power draw is very similar to that of the AMD reference model when compared to the recently released as rock Taichi for example the gaming OC 

consumed 17% less power and that means the cooler will have to deal with a lot less heat when measuring total system draw we again see if the gaming OC is very similar to the AMD reference card in terms of power draw that being the case I wasn't surprised to learn that the gigabyte gaming OC is the coolest 57-hundred xt we've tested beating the much larger and much heavier MSI gaming X model by a degree of course the fans on the gigabyte card were 

spinning much faster but as you'll see in a moment when we look at the operating volume results it wasn't that loud the vrm did run a bit hot on this GPU nothing crazy here we're looking at a peak load temperature of 71 degrees that's pretty typical for 5700 XT as an example it was just a degree hotter than the Red Devil and Taichi models the GDD r6 memory though it ran even hotter again peaking at a surprisingly high 82 degrees and that's the same 

temperature we've recorded using the msi evoke OC and that means the memory on the gaming OC doesn't run that much cooler than the AMD reference model overclocked to the memory temperature shot up to 92 degrees and at that point things are starting to get a little too hot the good news is the gaming OC is a relatively quiet graphics card despite the reasonably high fan speed in terms of operating volume it's comparable for the Sapphire Nitro+ and a little quieter than the power color red devil so a great result there okay so the gigabyte 

gaming OC is another solid looking 5700 XT graphics card and it runs pretty cool and quiet with the only exception being the memory which is a little on the high side certainly not ideal but it's not really a deal-breaker either truth is I've not seen a 5700 XT graphics card yet that I wouldn't purchase for about over the MSRP so it really all comes down to the price and unfortunately most models are fetching a bit more than a premium anyway the 

gigabyte gaming OC that's been heavily requested by you guys for me to check out and obviously the reason for that was due to the fact that it was selling for just over the MSRP unfortunately at the time of making this review  newegg.com sting has been removed due to no stock but they are selling it at superb so at least you can grab one over there if you are based in the US the 

gaming OC is a cracking good deal that makes it ten dollars cheaper than the msi evoke OC and cheaper than power colors Red Devil locally here in Australia though it costs Aussie more than the Red Devil and just  less than the MSI gaming X so that's not great and at that price I think I'd rather go with either of those competing options gigabyte really needs to get the gaming OC down to at least  

 in order for it to be worth purchasing here locally anyway if you can get it for ozzie or then I strongly recommend you check it out as it is yet really good value at those prices and that is going to do it for this one .
