Conclusion and Verdict
After a very successful RX5700 XT IceQX2, I had a chance to review a very similar graphics card based on a non-XT version of RX5700 GPU. As I was expecting, this card is also top of the line and offers all the best for gamers. Also, in this case, we won’t find RGB lighting, which some users may call a disadvantage. However, it’s not required for gaming, and some users actually dislike any form of RGB lighting.
For sure, we are receiving a fully stable, quiet, and overclocked version of the RX5700 graphics card, which is clearly worth recommendation and easily beats the competition. There are single RX5700 under different brands that can match the IceQX2 series. Most of them are offering or slightly higher frequency or slightly quieter cooler. Not always all in one package as HIS delivers.
HIS offers a two-year warranty on RX5700 graphics cards. The RX5700 IceQX2 should be available for around $330-350 so close to the reference card’s price.
Pros:
- High performance – significantly better than a reference card
- Quiet fans and low noise during work
- Reasonable power usage for an overclocked card
- Interesting, high-quality design
- Passive fan mode at low GPU load
- dual BIOS
Cons:
- For some users can be lack of RGB lighting
Final words:
The HIS Radeon RX5700 IceQX2 is a well-balanced graphics card that is just perfect for players. At a reasonable price, we are getting high performance, quiet work, and high-quality design. It’s pretty much all that gamers are looking for.
The same as the RX5700 XT version, also the RX5700 IceQX2 fully deserves Editor’s Choice Award! These two cards share most features and are clearly the top choice for gamers.
