Just got my Gigabyte RX 5700 XT Gaming OC delivered today from NewEgg. Messed around about an hour to get a quick and dirty OC and did a few real quick comparisons to my Radeon VII which was lightly overclocked.
First observations. 5700XT is getting random flickering with two monitors running at the same time, 1 monitor is fine. Did not have same problem with Radeon VII.
+50% power limit does seem to allow a slight boost in clocks, but junction temps start to get high. +30% runs a bit cooler and not much drop in performance compared to 50. 950mhz is max I can go on memory in AB or wattman....curious how much higher it can go. No voltage adjustments either. Would love to see how undervolting does.
I run a custom fan curve, with 55% fan set for when temps hit 70c. 90% fan at 85c. Noise is actually very similar to my Radeon VII at the same fan speed settings. Not bad, but not all that quiet either. Not surprised as both cards have what appears to be the same fan sizes.
OC Settings:
5700 XT : 2070 core | 950 memory +30% power limit
Radeon VII: 1840 core | 1100 memory (this was my 24/7 daily settings with slight undervolt which gave more stable clocks)
Tests were just the canned benchmarks in the game except Control, which I tested over a 5 minute time and used FRAPS. All settings mostly at all highest possible settings (few exceptions though like volumetric clouds and shadows usually a click below max) and 1440p.
Radeon VII - Min | Avg
Division 2: NA | 74
AC Odyssey: 26 | 71
Far Cry NewDawn: 78 | 99
Metro Exodus: 33 | 57
Forza Horizon 4: 91 | 105
Control: 47 | 62
TimeSPY: 8877 (graphics score) Although to be fair my best score was 9560 at borderline unstable OC but was on a different build.
5700XT - Min | Avg
Division 2: NA | 68

Forza Horizon 4: 94 | 108
Control: 50 | 62
TimeSPY: 9533 (graphics score) Stock score was 8585
So with those games anyway, really pretty dang close performance. Still have some messing around to do, but I doubt there is much more there for performance unless voltage and memory controls become available for me.
