Customers are enthusiastic about the AMD Radeon RX 590 Fatboy OC+ 8GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card's performance and its affordability, citing excellent graphics capabilities for the price. However, some users noted that the card can run warm and be somewhat loud during intensive use, and it may require a more powerful power supply. The card's large size was also mentioned as a potential drawback. Overall, the positive feedback on performance and price seems to outweigh the concerns regarding temperature, noise, and size for many buyers.

I built my first official build using this GPU. I actually had an invidia dual gtx 1070 which has better capabilities BUT, this card is no slouch and has definitely held its own running gears 5 and destiny 2 flawlessly on high settings. I have this running on a ROG Atrix b450-F motherboard with a modest and ryzen 3 CPU. Granted I've owned this for only a week, so time will tell.

Got this video card for my AMD Build! I never used amd cpu and gpu! This video Card had outstanding my expectations! It played every game i testest at 60 fps at high to ultra settings! For $250 its between the GTX 1660 and 1660ti and with the price in the middle even! I highly recommend this gpu if you want to have a all amd build or something between the 2 gtx 1660/ti.

Great starting GPU to get the job done. Not a huge difference from my old GTX 960 but it’s for sure better. This thing is huge so make sure it fits your case. Amd has been getting better at competing with NVIDIA over the years. Glitches randomly but not sure if it’s the monitor or GPU. Would recommend this product if on sale

While not fixing initial problems that I had suspected of being a faulty graphics card it is a welcome upgrade nonetheless. A recommendation to purchasers is to click the switch next to the power inputs as it will allow the fans to do their job much more efficiently at the cost of some more noise. I have noticed a 10°c drop in temps since switching and the noise is very tolerable.

Was able to max out all options at 1080p in all the games I tried including Destiny 2 and Wolfenstein New Colossus...very smooth, no stuttering at all. Would be 5 stars if the fan was a bit quieter. It isn’t annoying but I can tell it’s on vs my old card being silent.

Great for any new game and runs very well if you limit the frame rate to below 60 but excellent quality for the more budget gamer
I’m not super good with computers but it was fairly easy to use

I am rapidly becoming a fan of XFX and their build, pricing and performance.
I've had the honor of using several of their cards now, and they all perform as described at equal if not better pricing than their competitors and deliver as promise.
The Fatboy 590 is the very last in the line of AMD's Polaris technology and it shows. It doesn't perform much better than a 580 but if all things are equal and the pricing is similar, go with the 590.
The 590 is still a very viable card for 1080 gaming and even some 1440p with quality reductions to be taken into consideration.
Excellent.

I purchased this card to replace my aging 290 and was surprised by the marginal performance improvement. This card is maybe 17% faster than a card five years older at 1440P, the difference is even smaller at 4K. Again not a bad card but I expected more given how old the 290 is compared to the 590. Lastly the card is loud, my triple fan 290 is extremely quiet, but this thing is one of the loudest cards I've heard since my reference 6970.

Great GPU so far. Quiet as well. I've only played at 1080P and have not pushed the card yet. I've connected three monitors, with two seperate games active, handles them fine.

Excellent graphics card for the Price - $279.99. I was able to purchase it on Black Friday at Best Buy and ship it to store. This card has plenty of headroom left to overclock.
