Verdict
Our verdict on the RX 5300
An entry-level RDNA 1 GPU that’s held back by its meager 3 GB VRAM in modern games.
Get it if you need a cheap, basic graphics card for light gaming or a display output on an older PC. Skip it if you want to play modern games—the small memory will choke on anything recent.
Buy it if…
- You are building a budget 1080p gaming PC for esports titles.
- You need a low-power GPU for a small form factor office PC.
- You want a Radeon card that works well on older motherboard chipsets.
