Sapphire Pulse RX 5600 XT Review

👤by David Mitchelson Comments 📅22-01-20
Conclusion

Initially, the RX 5600 XT was touted as a rival to the GTX 1660 Ti but this new GPU has the prowess to go up against the RTX 2060. RX 5600 XT can easily take on the GTX 1660 Ti and is an easy recommendation for those in the market for a graphics card capable of 1080p with all the bells and whistles (max. detail preset).

If we take the Sapphire Pulse on its own, we’re presented with an attractive looking card which boasts an impressive cooling configuration, capable of providing good thermal results and low-noise too. The ability to switch out the cooling fans isn’t anything new to Sapphire graphics cards but it’s a novel idea and is a handy attribute to have.


Priced at £255 GBP / $279 USD, the RX 5600 XT represents decent value for money – undercutting the RTX 2060 and yet supplying very similar performance results; something which NVIDIA will surely be concerned about!

If you game at 1080p and want all the eye candy then the RX 5600 XT is currently the best option for the task!
