MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT Evoke OC Edition tested – butter or margarine on bread? | Page 7

Temperature curves and boost clock rates in detail

The cooler is actually quite nice for its size, because even in the closed case the card usually stays below 70 °C. In the open design it’s a cool 67 °C, but it’s also associated with some noise. The overclocking latitude is very manageable with all Navi cards and I didn’t do it out of respect for my ears and the material. The already between 3 and 4 percent higher performance of the factory OC compared to the reference can hardly be topped with reasonable means.

Later on I will talk about the BIOS and my exchange of ideas with MSI, which finally led to an optional silent BIOS, which you can download from the homepage. This time MSI focused on the durability of the card and especially on the use of the only 23.5 cm long card in smaller ITX systems. The temperatures reached are quite suitable for the place of use.

This doesn’t look any different in the stress test, as the waste heat is largely the same as the power consumption is similar to gaming.

Und nun das Ganze noch einmal in nüchternen Zahlen in Tabellenform, wobei ich die Karte fairerweise mit der größeren GeForce RTX 2080 FE vergleiche:
