AMD Radeon RX 5700XT only 3FPS faster than NVIDIA RTX 2070 in World War Z

    Yesterday, I shared the UserBenchmark score of the AMD Radeon RX 5700 comparing it to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070, where the Navi GPU was around 6% faster in the synthetic bench and just 6% in the effective gaming test. Today, we’ve gotten hold of an in-game benchmark of the Radeon RX 5700XT and guess what? It’s only 3 frames ahead of the RTX 2070 in World War Z which by the way is an AMD sponsored title, known to heavily favor red team.

    The game was tested at 1440p at the ultra quality graphics preset and the RX 5700XT yielded 106FPS. The GeForce RTX 2070 on the other hand, was just barely slower with 103FPS. This is rather disappointing as AMD was claiming a performance advantage of 10-20% for $30 less, but here as you can see it’s not even 5% faster. On top of that, this is an AMD title running at 1440p. If you crank up the resolution to 4K, I’m quite certain the delta will completely disappear. So what are you saving the $30 for? To get rid of the RTCores and the Tensors, at least that what it seems like. Pretty pathetic, to be honest.

    While AMD’s Navi GPUs seem quite lackluster, NVIDIA is prepping the RTX Super cards with higher core counts as well as better ray-tracing capability. Doesn’t seem like AMD’s position is going to change much in the graphics card market.

    1. Paying extra $20?
      Dude its $50 cheaper.
      5700 costs $20 over 2060 and 5700 XT is $50 cheaper than 2070.
      Please check your facts before posting them.

    3. It says right there in the screenshots this is a DX 11 run and NOT Vulkan as you’re claiming. DX11 has always been known to favour NVidia cards over AMD cards.

      • rarely the Geforce video cards reduce their performance in Vulkan, which makes me suspect that the vulkan code is not well specified how to operate the Geforce, because if it were, there would be no reduction in performance.

    4. Dude ! You need to stop with Nvidia bias , first of all , these cards matching up to Nvidia in Dx11 is a positive for AMD , that means , even in non vulkan/older titles they will be competitive.
      Secondly , these are cheaper options and AMD is also expecting the price cuts in view of super launch , or else these cards would’ve been way cheaper already since they use DDR6. They now have a margin to go for price war if necessary. Who knows , Nvidia might up the prices with Super since they don’t have serious competition.
      You need to start reporting neutrally , all of your articles just put out so much bias that its hard to read.

    5. How about what test system did you use? What graphics drivers did you use? You can’t do a comparison test without telling what your using in the test. Oh and one game really? Your doing an overall based on one game your an idiot or people that believe this at first glance are idiots.

      • Dude this isn’t my test rig. It was shared by a source on Twitter. It still gives an approximate measure of what to expect. We can still say with a level of certianty that it won’t be 15-20% faster than the 2070

    6. You can delete all the comments you want Areej . You’ll still be nvidia’s bitch on a lease getting fucked in the ass daily and begging for their cum .

    7. So, are you ever going to correct this plainly wrong article? Used DX11 which favors nVidia, misread what the GPU load % is, used only one game. As it is, this blatantly misleads consumers.

    8. Pcie 4.0 (Not available)
      Vulkan (not tested)
      Setup (not specified)
      5700XT (under driver stabalization)
      What if this is by nvidia
      What if this is rtx 2070 super
      What if 5700XT is downclocked like the cpu’s in benchmarks
