XFX AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT 6GB GDDR6 THICC III Ultra Video Card Review

Videocards/VGA Reviews by stefan @ 2020-02-12

With the release of the Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 Ultra THICC III, XFX has refined the cooling system quite a bit and now we do have a card that only occupies two slots, remains cool during maximum load and at the same time the fans remain at very low noise levels. Even though the card runs with the memory at 12Gbps, the used packages are rated at 14Gbps, so we have some overclocking headroom for sure in this regard, while the GPU reaches nearly 1750MHz boost clock in Time Spy Extreme, as the manufacturer intended. XFX and AMD themselves have intended to recommend this card for 1080P resolutions while gaming, but we have seen situations when this card can handle 1440P resolutions at around 60FPS in some titles, without exceeding 140W package power.

A Closer Look Part IV

Here is a closer shot between the I/O area and the memory compartment:

Also, here is how the 6-phase GPU VRM is positioned:

A large portion of the PCB is mostly empty in the right area and only holds the power connectors, along with the BIOS switch and the fan power header:

The revised cooling system does hold 4x6mm copper composite heatpipes, which travel from one side to the other of the radiators:

The GPU and memory plates are 100% made of copper, while the pads have an enhanced formula over the ones we have seen along with the 5700XT series:

Here are some additional shots of the cooling system:
