The actual performance of AMD RX5600 XT may not be much lower than RX 5700
ASRock has incorrectly listed the upcoming AMD RX5600 XT version on its official website. Although this page has been deleted, the relevant snapshots have also been saved. The discussion here is mainly about the ASRock Radeon RX 5600 XT Challenger D 6G OC graphics card. This version of ASRock and ASUS have already applied for registration with the Eurasian Economic Union. Surprisingly, the RX5600 XT version seems to have the same number of stream processors as the RX5700, but AMD has weakened the RX5600 XT memory configuration.
According to the parameters displayed on the page, the bandwidth of the RX5600 XT version should be 288GB/S, which is 36% lower than the RX5700 and also lower in core clock frequency. So the AMD RX 5700 will be faster at higher bandwidth, which seems to use the same technology strategy as the Nvidia GTX 1660 SUPER. On the whole, the performance of the RX5600 XT version will not be much lower than that of the RX 5700 even after reducing the memory configuration, especially in the case where the bandwidth is not particularly large.
Of course, reducing the memory configuration will help reduce the retail price of the RX5600 XT version. The retail price of the RX 5700 version is $349. Therefore, the retail price of the RX5600 XT version should be less than $349. The specific information is expected to be gradually announced at the CES2020 international consumer electronics exhibition next month.
