PowerColor RED DEVIL Radeon RX 5700 - Worth it?

[I Josh I]

Hi all!

 

So I have been browsing non-reference RX 5700 cards, and out of all of them (at the moment) the PowerColor Red devil RX 5700 seems to be the best in-terms of cooling compared to the reference rx 5700. Is the PowerColor Red Devil RX 5700 the best non-reference 5700 card in-terms of cooling and quietness? 

 

They also have a double fan RX 5700 card, but I don't believe this is out yet or at least here in Canada.

Thanks for your input!

Watch GamersNexus videos on the RX 5700 cards before making a purchase. Steve goes way in depth on each card.

Hardware Unboxed did a review on this exact card.

TL;DW, it's awesome but priced so closely to RX 5700 XT's that it becomes a little difficult to recommend. Looking at Newegg.ca prices, you're within $10 CAD (2% more) of a reference (blower style) RX 5700 XT, and $40 CAD (7% more) from the Asus RX 5700 XT TUF. In both cases, the 5700 XT would average roughly 12% more frames across the board.

Thanks for your response. That is something to consider, spend a little more and get decently more performance.

 

I will give that a video a watch!
