" ... You can expect about 15-20% faster performance versus the 5700 version. ... The card performed fine. ... Performance -- This card performs very well. ... I have not experienced any issues yet, but I am running this card on X570 motherboard in combination with Ryzen 5 3600 CPU. ... "
" ... AMD did a really good job with this one. ... "
" ... Upgraded my MSI rtx 2070 GPU armor which cost $150+ more than this GPU, and I'm loving the performance so much more and easy overclocking potential. ... "
" ... I'm more than happy with the performance. ... XFX says the card requires a minimum of 600 watts, but I've had zero issues running it on a 550 watt Bronze-rated EVGA power supply. ... I think the card is good enough to warrant a purchase now though and I'm more than happy with the looks and performance of mine. ... "
" ... This was a huge upgrade from my R9 graphics card and I am having a great time with it. ... "
" ... This GPU performs flawlessly thus far and i felt compelled to write a review immediately. ... "
" ... Some stutter but it will be fixed soon so I still reccomend great performance for 400$ ... "
" ... I upgraded from a RX 590 to this card and I'm absolutely blown away by the performance. ... "

" ... I uninstalled all Nvidia drivers and installed the correct AMD Radeon driver about 5 times. ... I might try again after a few more driver updates and things stabilize. ... "
" ... This may be a decent card when the drivers have matured a bit but atm I cannot recommend this card. ... "
" ... Here comes the main issue I encountered : 2 weeks in, while updating to the new 8/20/2019 Radeon Drivers update, It gives a notification that my "Digital Signature doesnt exist". ... This comes as a surprise to me when I could download the previous AMD Driver updates with no issue whatsoever. ... "
" ... Even if part of all of the issues I have experienced are related to driver issues, I would not recommend getting this if you are wanting a fairly hassle free experience. ... "
" ... Early drivers struggled to hand normal tasks like web browsing and multi-monitor support. ... Gaming stability has been a nightmare, with the first round of drivers i used (19.7.2) crashing out of almost half of all games I tried to play. ... Newer driver have seemed to improved stability, but not by enough. ... With the 19.8.1 drivers I still have the following issues. ... I do not know if the issues are hardware or driver related, but they appear to be primarily driver issues. ... I have spent many hours installing and uninstalling drivers, reinstalling windows, and updating all the drivers and bios on my system. ... "
" ... Lots of driver issues already, they get fixed, but annoying for now. ... "
" ... At the current moment drivers are a little buggy. ... "
" ... It's a given the drivers for this card are crap, this first wave of cards is ridiculous with the amount of twists and turns its hard to even consider AMD at this point. ... This card and I'm sure many others as well are cursed with sub-par drivers and this whole "just wait till the drivers roll out" isn't cutting it with me, if it's AMD's fault then its their fault, but I refuse to buy these products when I can't even post or when they do I have to walk on ice due to driver support. ...

" ... I’m gaming in 1440p pegged at 144hz in every game at ultra settings. ... I’ve not experienced any issues with any other game/video. ... Blower is running around 2000-2100rpm in game. ... If you’re planning to run this card stock as an average gamer, I’d say go for it. ... "

" ... Gaming has been great. ... While I can't quite hit 144 fps on most games, I have been consistently getting to 100, which looks absolutely stunning in games. ... In closing, I would highly recommend this card to anyone that doesn't want to pay an arm and a leg for 1440p gaming. ... "
