AMD’s Radeon RX 5700 & RX 5700 XT At 1080p, 1440p & Ultrawide

Monster Hunter: World

Let’s kick this page of results off with a look the two main battles we’ve been watching. The red team once again performs great here, beating out the NVIDIA competition at every single resolution in both match-ups. What’s perhaps better to see is that this game can use such high-end settings, along with the high-res texture pack, and still hit 60 FPS easily on most of these GPUs at up to 1440p. It just smooths out as you go up after that point.

Even the ultrawide resolution works fine on most of these GPUs. When Monster Hunter: World first came out, it felt incredibly sluggish, but these results prove that it’s actually pretty optimized. Or, it at least gives the impression through these results. With the fact that ultrawide resolution was added a few months ago, it’s obvious that the developers are keen on taking better advantage of our PCs.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider

We can add Shadow of the Tomb Raider to the list of RTX-infused titles that run really well on AMD’s new RX 5700 series. We’re once again seeing the $349 RX 5700 keep super close to the $399 RTX 2060 SUPER at 1080p and 1440p, and managing to surpass it at 3440×1440. Not all games have scaled the same way, but AMD is definitely putting a price tag on NVIDIA’s RTX features in this game.

The Division 2

NVIDIA’s RTX 2070 SUPER runs away with the lead in The Division 2, with the original (pre-OC model) RTX 2070 trailing behind it a good distance. But right behind that is the RX 5700 XT. It makes perfect sense now why NVIDIA decided to completely replace the original RTX 2070 with the SUPER, along with its pricing.

The RX 5700 continues to emulate the performance of the last-gen Vega 64, once again reminding us that we still have a lot of workstation benchmarking ahead of us. With Navi surprising so often in the gaming results, we’re hoping to see some likewise pop up in our creator tests, too.
