AMD sneaks out Radeon RX 5300 - "Navi" card aimed at 1080p gaming

On July 7, 2019, AMD invested in a major launch with news on both the processor and graphics side, through the Ryzen 3000 series and the “Navi” family with the RDNA architecture. The year-old series debuted with the graphics card duo Radeon RX 5700 XT and the slightly leaner sibling RX 5700, which in round throws competes in terms of performance with Nvidia’s Geforce RTX 2070 and RTX 2060 Super.

Since its launch, the Navi family has expanded with new models down the price and performance ladder, with the Radeon RX 5600 XT and RX 5500 XT. Before the end of the year, the redesigned RDNA 2 architecture will enter the market with Sony’s and Microsoft’s game consoles, but also in separate graphics cards. In silence, AMD is now running a final lap of honor with the outgoing architecture, releasing the RX 5300 boarding pass.

On the product page, it says that gaming in 1080p resolution is the focus of the model, which is equipped with 1,408 stream processors – identical to the sibling Radeon RX 5500 XT. For some time now, AMD has been specifying a maximum turbo frequency and a level that should be typical of gaming, and for the newcomer these are at 1,645 MHz and 1,448 MHz. The 3 GB GDDR6 memory has a speed of 14 Gbps and this over a 96 bit wide memory bus, for the memory bandwidth 168 GB / s.

This is a real step down from the 224 GB / s that applies to the Radeon RX 5500 XT, which is also sold with 4 or 8 GB of graphics memory and has gaming and turbo frequencies of 1,717 and 1,845 MHz respectively. Common to both cards, on the other hand, is power supply through an 8-pin PCI Express connection.

Performance figures from AMD’s own tests.

AMD highlights the Radeon RX 5300 as an opponent of Nvidia’s Geforce GTX 1650 in overclocked design, and believes that its own card performs between 18 and 45 percent better in the titles Battlefield V, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Monster Hunter World and Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds. Common to all titles is that the AMD card delivers more than 60 FPS on average, which the Nvidia card misses a certain margin.

The price of the graphics card is currently unknown, but Videocardz claims that it is a model intended for system builders. It is worth mentioning that the Radeon RX 5500 also debuted as an OEM-exclusive AMD Radeon RX 5500 is being tested – a low-power replacement for the RX 580 model, but which was then presented with the “XT” suffix and a place on store shelves. The future will show if the RX 5300 goes the same way.
