Jiu-Jitsu Master
At the end of 2019, AMD staged an art shelling of NVIDIA competitors by releasing a pack of new cards with the XT prefix. The "Greens" immediately responded with their SUPER line and in the segment under $200 an interesting jiu-jitsu championship began, where none of the opponents planned to give up. Six months later, the struggle continues, and the clear winner is still not clear. All this fully applies to the RX 5500 XT performed by Sapphire, which came to our review.
Quiet and cold
Recently, Sapphire has been closely associated with the Nitro line, in which reference cards are noticeably overclocked in the core and memory, placing serious demands on the power supply. In contrast, PULSE RX 5500 XT looks quite ordinary. And this is not a disadvantage. The fact is that overclocking the original Radeon RX 5500 XT does not make much sense, since the card starts to noticeably heat up, and the increase in megahertz from the GPU turns out to be very tiny. Therefore, instead of trying to squeeze all the juice out of this card, Sapphire engineers did not reinvent the wheel, but finalized what could be improved.
Optimal performance for Full HD gaming
Compared to the main competitor GTX 1650 SUPER, in most games on the 1080p + High custom settings bundle, we see either parity or a slight advantage of NVIDIA's option. Overall, both cards put up decent performance and handle the hits of yesteryear and the few blockbusters of 2020 well. At the same time, PULSE RX 5500 XT wins due to a quieter cooler. Surely for someone it will be more important than the difference in a few FPS.
