PowerColor Red Devil Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card review

yesterday i checked out the new msi RX 5700 xt voc OC i felt to be a pretty good upgrade over AMD's reference designer least in terms of cooling performance it was a reasonably compact 5700 xt and it has a lot of gold flair but because you guys point out that's because it's an AMD 50th anniversary edition so yeah that makes sense why wouldn't it be a gold graphics card anyway today i have something that looks more serious a bit more menacing and yeah just a

much bigger 5700 xt as you can plainly see the power color RX 5700 xt red devil is an absolute beast of a graphics card pretty much everything about this thing screams overkill and i kind of like that so it is 295 millimeters long it's 51 millimeters wide and then it's 120 millimeters tall so yeah not a compact graphics card this one and then it does weigh in at a PCIe slot bending 1.25 kilograms and yeah that is a joke it won't Bend your PCIe slot I said that once and a few people

got a bit agitated in the comments that I was suggesting it would break your PCIe slot I mean if you didn't fix it in position very well and you jumped up and down with the case and probably do it some damage over an extended period of time but yeah it's not gonna break yeah your PCIe slot so I apologize for attempting to make that joke again not only is it a triple slot graphics card but it also has a triple fan cooler from the front we have a very chunky grey

plastic fan shroud dressed in black aluminium bits that sort of make it look a bit more premium that it would otherwise and those bits are fixed into place using some exposed screws which also looks kind of cool a bit of an industrial look I'd say and those 390 millimeter fans feature a dual ball bearing design for quiet operation and longevity on the rear side of the graphics card we find a massive sighs back plate with a backlit red devil logo so yeah that looks pretty neat when

its installed inside your system and there's more LED RGB detailing on the side of the card as well along with a pair of eight pin PCIe power connectors and then a small switch that's more towards the front of the car and that allows you to switch between an OC and silent mode the default OC mode has a 220 watt power target whereas the silent mode has a hundred and eighty watt power target for testing I just stuck with the OC mode as it's virtually silent anyway so I'm not really sure what the point of a silent mode is then we have the i/o panel which is a

pretty standard affair here you'll find three display ports along with a single HDMI output so that's pretty much the card externally let's take that massive cooler off for a closer look at the cooler itself and then the PCB the heatsink cools not just the GPU but also the GDD r6 memory and the vrm the actual design of this area of the heatsink along with the thermal pads used are almost identical to what we got with the MSI evoke however the biggest difference of course is

the B heatsink whereas the heat sink on the Evoque weighed just 355 grams which I felt was a little under sized this sucker tips the scales at 694 grams making at 95% heavier the base plates also 100% copper whereas the Evoque only used copper for the GPU with the GDD r6 memory and vrm plates being made from aluminium so potentially better memory and vrm cooling here there's also an extra heat pipe with five in total and just loads more fins there really are fins for

days then over on the PCB we have a beefier version of what we found on the MSI evoke in terms of dimensions it's a little longer and a little taller but the key upgrade here is the 10 phase vrm versus the 7 phase version of the Evoque and AMD reference cards power color says this allows their card to safely deliver 300 watts of power compared to the standard 220 watts which is interesting but I'm not sure how useful it is given that these cards are quite heavily limited by

AMD when it comes to overclocking Headroom so again I'm not sure how useful this upgrade will be firing up f1 2019 and running our loop for an hour we saw the red devil peak at just 16 degrees in a 21 degree room inside the Corsair crystal 570 X fully populated with 120 millimeter fans this is the same huge 15 degree drop in peak operating temperature that we saw with the Evoque when compared to the AMD reference card which peaked at 84 degrees under

the same conditions at this temperature the red devil maintain an average core clock frequency of roughly 1980 megahertz again there is quite a lot of variance in clock speed with these 5700 series GPUs but this was also about what we saw from the reference model now the really impressive part are those three fans they span it between just 1,300 and 1400 RPM making the red devil on the OSI mode quieter than even the Evoque OC in fact under full load the cards

basically silent so again I'm not quite sure what the silent mode does I guess making it completely silent would be the next step as for the GDD are six memory temp that was only reduced by 6 degrees from the Evoque and the very room temperature was dropped by around 10 degrees so that is quite an impressive result as for overclocking there is still a voltage cap of 1200 millivolts and a frequency cap of 2150 megahertz AMD imposes these limits at the BIOS

level but at least you can hit these caps now without it sounding like a jet engine with these limits reached we saw a peak operating temperature of just 71 degrees and incredibly this saw the fans spinning at just fourteen hundred and fifty rpm where again they were virtually silent and that means overclocked to the fans on the red devil spin around 500 rpm slower than the fan stock on the Evoque OC so very impressive stuff by power color here now although we're

targeting 2150 megahertz for the cause the card maintained a clock speed of around 2 gigahertz so that's very similar to what we saw with the msi evoke OC and that means we're just getting a mere 8% increase in frequency from the out-of-the-box configuration and then of course the GDD r6 memory doesn't respond that wall to overclocking we've got another 25 megahertz out of it and that's pretty typical for a 5700 XT ok so let's move into the benchmark

graphs as usual be testing with the core I know 1900 K GPU test rig which is clocked at 5 gigahertz and features 16 gigabytes of ddr4 3400 memory the latest drive is available at the time of testing have been used for this one we have just a few select games to look at okay so first up we have Assassin's Creed Odyssey and already I can kind of tell how this is going to go

every hour x 5,700 XT regardless of the cooler used is going to average around 70 FPS in this test 72 fps if you push it to its limits so the Red Devil matched the Evoque you see the Red Devil was one to two fps faster than the Evoque in Forza horizon for but given that we're averaging over 130 fps here an extra frame or two certainly is going to go unnoticed moreover the difference between the out-of-the-box experience and the manual overclocked is basically

nothing this time we see the Red Devil offering overclocked 5700 XT performance out of the box so that's kind of neat though we are only talking about a 4% performance boost so nothing to get too excited over and here we see when it comes to power consumption that the MSI evoke OC and power color Red Devil are very similar the red devil did consume slightly more power but we're only talking about a 3 watt difference out of the box based on a three run average and

then we see much the same we're looking at total system consumption the Red Devil consumed a whisker more powered near VOC OC making both a bit more power-hungry than the AMD reference card okay so that's the power color rx 5700 XT red devil it's big it's heavy but it is remarkably quiet and for that I really do love it it's a much more impressive product than MSI is a VOC OC and surprisingly I don't think it's going to be that much more expensive power

color tell me it'll cost that's for the standard package which well this isn't apparently this is I think this is the limited edition box the standard box will be less impressive on this thing but it's the box who cares so for 44 the standard package and then for the limited edition version that I have but anyway doesn't really matter too much I would probably suggest if you're not fazed by the box

and a few extra bits and pieces and you're really just after the graphics card get the standard package and if it does end up being just more than the Evoque OC then I feel the Red Devil really is worth the extra coin I haven't really talked about it yet but for those who care about this kind of thing there is a limited-edition bundle and it comes with a red devil RGB mousepad and a sticker so if you're a real Red Devil fan that I guess that could be worth extra in any case for over the MSRP the standard Red Devil package is a seriously good deal in

my opinion and as a comparison with the Green Team RTX 2060 supermodels start at while triple fan versions that I'd say rival what we're getting here with the Red Devil cost more like to as for the r-tx 20 70 supermodels not really sure what's going on there the MSRP but a IB model start with the better examples priced

so the 5700 XT Red Devil destroys them in terms of value for example the MSI r-tx 27 is super which I have on hand and I rather quite like it it's priced more but it's also currently out of stock everywhere that I looked this means if higher quality 5700 XD graphics cards like the Red Devil really do hit shelves then I'd say it's game over for the RT X 2060 super and 2070 super at least without some sort of pricing alteration although I

haven't got started on that 30-plus game benchmark yet unless the results are drastically different from my 13 game sample featured in the reviews there'll be no point buying a 2060 super for the same price as the 5700 XT offers 2070 super light performance and that being the case there's really no reason to spend more on a 2070 super so with a single product aim DS managed to eliminate two NVIDIA GPUs again at their current prices that may change

your Nvidia does adjust pricing not expecting them to but who knows and yeah that's really an adult for this one not much more to say on this again I am really impressed though with what power color has done with the Red Devil certainly one of the most impressive 5700 XT graphics cards that I'm aware of and I really came to check out the vanilla 5700 Red Devil after seeing what this thing can do I'd believe the Red Devil version of the 5700 again is like

over the MSRP and it comes with a big cooler so may be worth it definitely worth it with the 57 xD but yeah we'll see with the the planar version.

the power color rx 5700 XT red devil so this is actually the biggest custom card we have seen so far with a triple fan cooler and what it's also effectively a triple slot heatsink on top of that the red devil also has dual BIOS functionality and a factory overclock core with a rated game clock of 905 megahertz priced at here in the UK is this the custom Navi card to get well we'll answer that question by starting with a look at the design and the first thing you probably really will notice about the Red Devil is it's a much more color neutral shroud design

so on previous Red Devil cards is being very much black and red lots of red accents everywhere and with the Red Devil 5700 XT apart from two little stickers on the front fans there is simply no red accents anywhere so it's very much color neutral with a gunmetal gray and black shroud going hand-in-hand with that color neutral design is the fact that this is actually power colours first-ever graphics card to sport RGB lighting as we have to RGB zones on the front side of the

card as well as one RGB zone on the back plate for me this is definitely a very good move as it just simply lets you choose whatever color you want to kind of accent with your own system instead of forcing you down kind of like a fixed color scheme which might not necessarily work with your own PC the shroud itself is mostly made from plastic all the kind of gunmetal grey areas you can see are made from plastic but despite that it does actually feel relatively solid in

the hand there's no kind of flexing or creaking of the plastic which is what we found with sapphires pulse card for instance and there are actually also some metal sections these black bits you can see on the front of the card they're actually kind of metal plates which are basically being screwed on and the screws have been left exposed to it's personally I think looks really good but obviously that's going to be kind of subjective overall it's certainly not gonna be as

premium feeling as kind of like an all-aluminium shroud as per the MSI evoke OC but for a card at this price it certainly doesn't cheap either one thing we can say for sure about this card though is that it is very large with the official dimensions coming in at 300 by 132 by 53 millimeters so like we said at the beginning of your video is effectively a triple slot heatsink on top of that measuring 30 centimeters long you definitely will be best off checking like this color

can actually fit in your case we can also get a look at those three fans on the front of the card and each fan measures 19 millimeters across the one thing I would say about these though is that I'm not really a fan pun intended of the kind of glossy plastic that they've been made out of I think it kind of just kind of cheapens the overall look of the card it just looks kind of a little bit tacky but that's obviously subjective and you know I would be too critical of that it's just I

would probably would have preferred kind of like a more matte black plastic if it would the rest of the theme one other thing to know about the fans though is that there is a fan stop mode so the fans do completely stop spinning once the GPU temperature goes below 60 degrees moving over to the front side of the card now we already mentioned the RGB logo and there's also LED strip just above that but towards the front of the card just by the i/o bracket we can also get a

look at the dual BIOS which by default the card ships with the OC mode enabled which is the one towards the front of the card towards the i/o bracket and that has a 220 watt power target but if you flick that away you can actually engage the silent bios which has a 180 lock power target and we will be testing both of those by ops just in a little while so stay tuned for those results if we flip the card over now we can also get a look at the metal backplate of course it's

all back to kind of keeping trend with this new color neutral design and we can see that while it is a full length backplate that is a cutout behind the GPU core and interestingly power color has done this kind of mesh or grill effect towards the end of the car just above the heatsink and that is simply to kind of increase overall heat dissipation with the fan kind of blowing air straight through and out of the back of the card we can also get a look at the power connectors now and

interestingly power color has increased these so you need to 8-pin power connectors instead of reference which is 1/8 pin and 1/6 pin but we can also see that video outputs are exactly the same as reference with 3 display ports and then one HDMI opening up the card to look at the PCB here we can actually see power color is the first GPU manufacturer we have seen for a 5700 XD to kind of increase the overall power delivery for the GPU itself as power color has

gone with a 10 fav solution which is up from a 7 phase power delivery of the reference card it is still a 2 phase power delivery for the memory though and instantly here are 8 gigabytes of ddr4 micron as for the heatsink itself this is by far and away the largest we have seen for a custom Navi card it's made of two separate aluminium fin stacks and these are connected by five six millimeter heat pipes these heat pipes draw heat away from kind of a single base plate which is

used to cool both the GPU dye as well as the vram while there is also a much smaller cold plate just for the MOSFETs off to the side so that's been it for our look at the carl and the cooler itself we're now gonna go in and detail the cooler performance the first thing I will say here before we get the charts up is that we did test both the OC wives and the silent way off so you will see two results for the red devil card and just so everyone's clear the Oh after the name of C stands for the OC bios and the S stands for silent bios if we start off with our temperature

testing now both by offs do make improvements over at the reference card and if we start off with the OC bios here we saw the GPU peak at 71 degrees or nine degrees cooler than the reference card the silent bios does run a little warmer I guess we would expect that that's the fans are spinning a bit slower and that peaked at 74 degrees but that is still six degrees cooler than the reference card the thermal results do like even more impressive though when we factor in noise levels as simply part either BIOS is just dead quiet starting with the OC BIOS this

produced just over 39 decibels of noise which is still far and away like miles quieter than the reference card and that was with the fans running at about 14 60 rpm which is about 41 percent with the silent bias though things just get ridiculous it's actually you know the quietest card I've ever heard when running in the asylum bios as the fans would actually spin as slow as 950 RPM so less than a thousand RPM and that I think is barely 26 or 27 percent of the fan speed in this

mode being completely honest the card is for all intents and purposes you know completely inaudible in fact the only way I can actually hear the fan spinning was if I put my ear kind of like just 2 inches away from the card so it's simply just very very impressive stuff and although you do kind of lose a little bit of performance as we'll touch on later if you want the absolute lowest noise levels possible the silent bias is a fantastic addition power door testing is also worth touching on and as we mentioned in the beginning of the video the OSI bias is the 220 watt

target and the silent bias has a hundred and 80 watt toilet so a 40 watt difference and that played out pretty much perfectly in our own testing with the OSHA BIOS drawing I think it was about 41 or 42 watts more than the asylum bios so in the ocean box that is more power than the reference card but interestingly the silent bias actually draws less power than the reference card the reason for that is that the silent bias does actually down clock itself versus the

reference car so ask me once about thirty five megahertz lower than AMD's reference design on the other hand if you stick with the OSI BIOS this obviously is a fair bit faster averaging 1956 megahertz under load which it puts it about 115 megahertz faster than the reference card we're gonna move on now to our game testing and it is worth saying for all these tests we did use the OSI bias just because you know that's going to give you the kind of best-case scenario for the

Red Devil and in this video we're gonna be showing our 1440p charts but if you do want to look at our 1080p and 4k results you can find those over on kit goo net putting our charts up now then the game's testing for the Red Devil is pretty much what we've come to expect when reviewing a custom navvy card which means that the Red Devil is a little bit faster than the reference design but there's really not much in it in fact over all of our games we saw the power color red devil averaging just three percent faster than the reference card which puts it

basically neck and neck with the MSI evoke OC the devil might be marginally faster here and there but kind of the differences are so small you're just not going to be able to notice them when playing the games still 3% I guess is better than nothing it just goes to show that by now we kind of know the Navi cards have been delivered pretty much on the limits of their overall performance so we're not going to see you know kind of big increases from a factory overclock

the extra frequency does help close the gap on 2070 Super however as the Red Devil is barely 1% slower than the founders Edition 2070 Super although if we do kind of bring in a factory overclocked model like MSI gaming extra there the Red Devil is still four percent slower up against 2060 Super though it is a clear win for the 5700 XT as the Red Devil is 13 percent faster than nvidias 2060 super rounds addition even up against palates 2060 super jet stream model

which is a factory overclocked card the Red Devil is still 8 percent faster on average we were able to push things even further by a manual / Hawking with the GPU core maxing out at its limit of 2150 megahertz we couldn't quite get the absolute maximum memory overclock though as at 950 megahertz in what man we were getting instability so we dialed that back to 9 to 5 megahertz still that overclock did see a decent boost to our average clock speed under load with the card now averaging 20 52 megahertz which is basically another 115 megahertz over the

default OC BIOS in our games this extra frequency did help but it wasn't kind of a massive jump forward in fact across the games we tested with this overclock we saw performance increase by an average of 4% so it is definitely better than nothing but it's not a massive leap forward counseled against that though is when we compared the manually overclocked word devil to the reference card the red devil is now eight percent faster on average so it does go to

show that if you have a factory overclocked card which you can then manually overclock even further the extra frequency does add up so then wrapping up this review of power colors rx 5700 xD red devil as you know without a doubt this is the best custom Navi card we have reviewed so far it simply does everything really really well and the dual BIOS functionality is excellent that's because not only is the OC bios itself very cool and very quiet it also runs 115

megahertz faster than the reference card you can also switch over to the silent bios and just get you know kind of ridiculously quiet noise levels in fact the red devil in the silent bios mode is you know definitely the quietest card I have ever heard as the fans don't even spend past a thousand rpm so while the card itself is an absolutely fantastic graphics card the one downside I would say is that those of us in the UK pricing definitely isn't as attractive as it is for those in

the US that's because in the States you can pick up the car more than the reference MSRP but still less than the twenty seventy super so for that price premium I would definitely pay the extra over the reference card every day of the week here in the UK however there is no doubt pricing isn't quite as attractive as the Red Devil will set you back price increase over the

reference MSRP which works out as an 18% increase so if you are in the States you are getting a much better deal if you can get this for just above the reference pricing no matter how you look at it though without a doubt in my mind this is the best custom Navi card yet and I really think it sets a new benchmark for what we can expect you know from custom Navi flagships we're expecting to see the sapphire nitro cartoon I'm also hoping to get a look at asus

strix model as well so the question for those cards really does become can they actually beat the power color red devil so guys that pretty much wraps up for my review of the power color Rx 5700 XT red devil .

PowerColor Red Devil Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card review

the 5,700 xt was in desperate need of a custom cooler we saw sapphire recently release one and now it is power colors turn this is the RX 5700 xt a red devil sent to us directly from power color for review and it's a beefy aib with plenty of muscle to flex we'll check out everything from power draw a GPU thames sound frame rates assuming there's much of a difference at all between this and the reference model either way though yeah well discuss all that this review

let's get started Thermal Grizzly's carbonate pads offer peace of mind ease of installation and industry standard performance in a market crowded with mediocre thermal compounds our own testing confirms that they conduct heat appropriately and provide a safe and consistent membrane between the dire i HS and cooler best of all you can grab them in several sizes and reuse them as many times as you'd like carbon our pads are a peace of mind in my book and

they're very consistent and that's why I use them for CPU testing check them out via the link below now to be clear I don't expect much of a difference in terms of raw performance between the reference and aiv cards and that's perfectly fine right the 5700 XT as it stands is already an extremely competitive card in this space we just need a better cooling solution and looks like this one's gonna check off that box that's where the Red Devil comes in play power colors

added a custom board custom heatsink and a custom design to this particular card here and I've got to say it's not too bad aesthetically I think I'd still prefer the asus or gigabyte cards those vendors have pretty much in my opinion perfected styling personally but power color has done a great job in my opinion of normalizing and otherwise if we're both designed sure it's a huge card two and a half slots thick right it's been bumped up to to eight pins instead of one

eight and one six I mean the backplate for crying out loud literally says Red Devil but at the same time I can largely appreciate a monochromatic build three fans instead of two it should translate to quieter operation we can also expect the larger heatsink to play a huge role in this and yeah this should allow for us to experience a higher and more sustained boost clock but even if it doesn't I'm kind of content with performance as it was in the ref it's cars I mean if we can get all of that and a quieter and cooler card then why would I complain I guess I could

complain if the card was extremely expensive but this isn't much more expensive than stock so yeah let's see if power color delivery so ivory run every test you're seeing here from scratch with the core i5 80 600 K 16 gigs of DDR 4 and an msi is e 370 gaming carbon the power color card has a dual BIOS which for a toggle between OC and silent profiles we left this on OC for the test you're about to see just in case you are wondering under synthetic load our reference

5700 XT continue to climb all the way to 91 degrees Celsius after a 30 minute dirt a rally loop which is about where we'd expect to see an air cooler fully saturate the Red Devil under the same conditions only pegged 76 degrees Celsius which is an awesome step in the right direction if I do say so myself it definitely isn't the coolest car in this list but I'd take mid-70s any day of the week over you know low to mid 90s I should also know that power colors of Vega 56 red

dragon remained cool and quiet in the mid 60's so you know if you want to go with something cheaper and a generation older you can get an even cooler card and decent performance at that and yes as a result of lower temperatures you can't imagine how much quieter the Red Devil is under a load where the reference model pegged 44 DB the a I'd be held steady at 38 point a decibels this brings it under power colors Vega 56 cards the stock fan curve and there isn't

much coil on it all with this one which is nice the Vega 56 card did have a bit of that so you're trading a bit of sound for a cooler card and you could certainly tweak curse for your ideal setup by the way the Red Devil will shut off fans entirely when idling is pretty standard nowadays but I thought you should know that but you shouldn't hear anything at all from the graphics card unless it does endure a sustained load now as for games I'll show you a few tests I ran and I say

few because it really didn't take much this car doesn't radically improve much in the way of frame rates I did notice some bumps here and there Grand Theft Auto 5 gave me exactly the same averages 1% lows and point one percent lows but every other game ferried to a small extent by we were sitting comfortably under 2,000 megahertz boost with the Red Devil only 15 megahertz up from reference and that doesn't translate to any substantial gains in these graphs dirt rally and Assassin's Creed Odyssey replaced f1 2017 and at Witcher 3 from my previous

videos by popular demand by the way and I feel like these games have a lesson here and bias overall despite dirt rally being advertised as an AMD title and funny enough dirt rally actually preferred the Nvidia card so what to do I also emitted doom because things peg the frame limiter for pretty much the duration of the tests and a maxed out 1440p format squashing any valuable data we might have had all-in-all the 5500 xt actively trades blows with the RT x 2070

and even the 2070 super in a few cases and you can get all of this for a little under now as for which you should choose it's honestly gonna come down to software attempts bundle deals price a lot of things right many variables at play here last week a few beefy variants of the RT x 2070 from msi we're selling for as little as and included a few decent games kind of as a bundle for no extra

charge right in that case it's a toss-up but the problem is these kinds of deals are rarely last and are infrequent at best the great thing about these 5700 xt variants is that their MSRP s are already this low to begin with meaning inventory levels side these prices should drop even further in the future that or will they least see some cool bundles closer toward the holidays Hey look before you guys start yelling you you're an Nvidia shill or even the opposite of that I

haven't really been called an ambulance a possibility given the internet let's just think if you think a few things clear I should say first and video doesn't pay my bills neither does AMD I don't get paid anything by either company we might have done things with them in the past but that really is a level playing field between both of them second it comes down to the numbers for me it's really all I care about I'm gonna recommend what I think best suits my budget

conscious audience point-blank that's it the videos I've hundred XT and RT X 2070 are neck and neck and a lot of these tests except in the temperatures aib 2070 cards run objectively cooler and thus quieter under load heck are 2070 super from gigabyte was extremely quiet under load basically I was a little over ambient and if this is something you value then all over things equal I'd recommend in RTX 2070 not necessarily the super variant

we discussed this in this review right here but the irregular 2074 is a compelling offer some of you no doubt will buy am do you simply because you want to support AMD or maybe just because you hate nvidia for whatever reason and that's fine I don't care you won't lose much in the way of performance at all and in a few cases you may end up with a better card you know in choosing the 57 XT particularly the power color variant so it really depends

on the game and it depends on your preference that's the joy of this right is it now you get to pick a card based on who you want to support and what card looks the best and what card runs the quiet it's not necessarily what card is the best performer in terms of what you get framerate wise and that's that's it that's nice it's nice to have choices for once right so yeah power color has given us a compelling offer for the 5700 XT I mean sure it cost a bit more than reference

and that's one of the reasons why I can't outright recommend it over the r-tx 2070 assuming again you can even find one for that price but nonetheless we finally have competition again in the space and what a frickin relief so for a TLD are all of my thoughts remain the same as they were in our initial 5,700 xt review that's this video right here - the complaints about temperature and noise which we're really the only complaints in the review if I recall correctly

and even though this one here cost a bit more than the reference model I'd say it is well worth it you can find the Red Devil link below along ago the cards tested in this review .
