Our verdict on the RX 5700
The Radeon RX 5700 is a mid-range GPU from 2019 that runs cool and quiet, but lacks the raw horsepower of its direct competition.
Get it if you need a cheap, reliable 1080p card for older games and don't care about ray tracing. Skip it if you want modern features, quiet operation, or plan to run demanding new titles at high settings.
Buy it if…
- You want 1440p gaming without breaking the bank.
- You need a solid card for your first PC build.
- You play older titles and don't need ray tracing.
