AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced the AMD Radeon™ RX 5500 XT
graphics card, harnessing the power of the groundbreaking AMD RDNA
gaming architecture, up to 8GB of memory and innovative AMD Radeon™
Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition features to unlock the next level
of high-performance 1080p gameplay.
The latest addition to the AMD Radeon™ RX 5500 series graphics
offerings announced in October, the AMD Radeon™ RX 5500 XT graphics
card is optimized to deliver high-performance 1080p AAA and esports
gaming. Built on industry-leading 7nm process technology,
supporting high-bandwidth PCIe® 4.0 technology and available with
either 4GB or 8GB of high-speed GDDR6 memory, it provides up to 13
percent faster performance on average in today’s top AAA games than
the competition1, and delivers up to 60+ frames-per-second (FPS) in
select AAA games3 and up to 90+ FPS in select top esports
titles4.
“Today more than 64 percent of gamers play at 1080p5, and they
expect high framerates with high-fidelity graphics, low latency and
fully immersive gaming experiences,” said Scott Herkelman,
corporate vice president and general manager, Radeon Technologies
Group at AMD. “We designed the AMD Radeon™ RX 5500 XT graphics card
with these gamers in mind, bringing the horsepower and power
efficiency of AMD RDNA graphics architecture at an accessible price
so gamers everywhere can enjoy blistering framerates and crisp
visuals in their favorite titles.”
Delivering incredible performance and power efficiency, the AMD
Radeon™ RX 5500 XT graphics card offers a host of exciting
capabilities and AMD Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition
features to deliver incredibly fluid and immersive 1080p gaming
experiences, including:
- AMD RDNA Architecture – Built from the ground
up for superior performance, scalability and power efficiency, and
designed to power the future of gaming, AMD RDNA gaming
architecture provides up to 1.6X higher gaming performance-per-watt
than Radeon™ graphics cards based on the prior-generation Graphics
Core Next (GCN) architecture6.
- AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag7 – AMD Radeon Anti-Lag
significantly decreases input-to-display response times, including
making Overwatch up to 22 percent more responsive8 and offering a
competitive edge in gameplay.
- AMD Radeon™ Boost9 – Delivers up to a 20
percent performance boost during fast-motion gaming scenarios in
PUBG by dynamically reducing image resolution, increasing
framerates and fluidity, and bolstering responsiveness with little
to no perceptible change in image quality10.
- AMD Radeon™ Image Sharpening (RIS)11 – Brings
crispness and clarity to in-game visuals that have been softened by
upscaling and post-process effects in DirectX® 9, 11, 12 and
Vulkan® titles. When paired with Radeon™ GPU upscaling, RIS enables
sharp visuals and fluid frame rates on high-resolution
displays.
- AMD FidelityFX – An open-source toolkit for
game developers making it easier for them to add high-quality
post-process effects that make games look beautiful while offering
the optimal balance of visual fidelity and performance. Available
on GPUOpen, FidelityFX features Contrast-Adaptive Sharpening (CAS),
which draws out detail in low-contrast areas while minimizing
artifacts caused by typical image sharpening routines.
- Largest gaming display ecosystem12 – With over
900 certified monitors to choose from12, gamers can enjoy
stutter-free, tear-free gameplay with AMD Radeon FreeSync™13 and
Radeon FreeSync™ 2 HDR technology14.
