Customers are positive about the MECH OC AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Graphics Card's performance in gaming, especially at 1440p resolution, and its price point. However, customers are negative about the high temperatures and resulting fan noise produced by the card. Some users also reported issues with drivers.
I downgraded from an Nvidia MSI RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio and.. Well, I can't really call it a downgrade. Actually an upgrade. Out of every game I've tested today, I get about 10 more fps with this card. The biggest difference is in Red Dead Redemption 2. On my 2080 I averaged around 60 fps, but with this card I average 88 fps. I don't know if I just got lucky and got a super good card, but I had no problems installing the drivers, and the increase in game performance is phenomenal. I'm very happy with my decision to switch from Nvidia. My only complaint is that this card is very loud, but I think my fans may just be a little loose. I've seen other reviews state that the card is very quiet. Out of all the cards I've owned (RX 570, GTX 1070 TI, GTX 1080, and RTX 2080), this is the only one I would say is worth every cent. Exceptional performance at half the cost of my RTX 2080.

First off, make sure you DDU your old drivers before you install this card, that will save you from having the majority of the problems listed in many of the other reviews. Stock out of the box, my card boosted to 1993mhz with the latest Adrenalin drivers and has not given me a single issue, it does get warm, but I wouldn’t say hot, it does run much cooler than my previous RX580. I rate this card a solid 10 out of 10, the Navi GPU and RDNA is going hurt Nvidia...

Pros: Came with Resident Evil 3, Monster Hunter: World + DLC, and 3 months of Xbox game pass. Crazy good value. Faster than my old 2070 in all games I play. Cons, but not really: Need undervolting to stay cool, I posted a picture of my settings. I didn't lost any fps by doing this. By doing this the card uses less power, which will result in lower temps.
