AMD positions Radeon RX 5500 in the performance segment

AMD's materials indicate the Radeon RX 5500 is a "performance" GPU, outperforming the GTX 1650 in most games.

According to recently published AMD marketing materials, the Radeon RX 5500 graphics card falls into the "Performance" product category.

Overall, if the presented graphs are to be believed, the new card significantly outperforms its competitor, the GeForce GTX 1650. For example, in the "red" — i.e., AMD-optimized — game World War Z, the RX 5500 beat its opponent by 85%. Even in relatively neutral titles, the RX 5500's performance is impressive. In the popular EA shooter Battlefield 5, the new card edged out the GTX 1650 by a substantial 75%.

But these achievements are even more striking considering the lead in GTA V, a game traditionally optimized for NVIDIA graphics cards. Even in Rockstar's title, the RX 5500 managed to outperform its price competitor by 22%.

Naturally, we need to wait for independent reviews, but what we're seeing in these marketing materials is certainly exciting.

To recap, the Radeon RX 5500 graphics card features a chip with 1408 stream processors, equipped with a 128-bit bus. It will come with either 4GB or 8GB of GDDR6 memory (RX 5500 has 4GB, RX 5500 XT has 8GB) operating at 14 Gbps, providing 224 GB/s of bandwidth.

The GPU's clock speeds for "gaming mode" are set at 1717 MHz, with a maximum boost clock of 1845 MHz in automatic mode.
