AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT
A 36-CU cut of the same Navi 10 die as the RX 5700, aimed at 1080p: 2,304 stream processors and 6GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus. A pre-launch BIOS update raised memory speed to 14Gbps and the boost clock to 1,750MHz. Launched at $279, undercutting Nvidia's RTX 2060.
Pros
- 2,304 stream processors from the same Navi 10 die as the RX 5700
- AMD's pre-launch BIOS update raised memory to 14Gbps for a free performance gain
- $279 launch price undercut Nvidia's RTX 2060
- 160W TDP needs only a single 8-pin connector
Cons
- 192-bit bus and 6GB of VRAM limit it above 1080p
- No hardware ray tracing or tensor cores
- Clock speeds varied by card depending on whether a partner shipped AMD's updated BIOS
