Verdict and Conclusion
The GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700 XT Gaming OC 8G graphics card establishes GIGABYTE’s commitment to bring to market the best version this segment of graphics cards. This card is very competitive with the RTX 2070 or RTX 2060 Super and is plenty of reason for any fan of Team Red to upgrade. The card comes with GIGABYTE’s signature Windforce 3X cooling, and boy does the cooler do its job well. The noise levels in relationship to the card’s thermals are perfect!
I am pleased to see the inclusion of a metal backplate rather than a plastic (gasp!) backplate. The metal backplate really does add to the overall aesthetics of the graphics card as well as help to dissipate the heat. The RGB is also nicely done and the performance is awesome!, more importantly, which is why this card is still an absolute winner. Well done GIGABYTE!
