MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING X 8GB graphics card

SKU CH-ZF8T-GWJBK

Delivers 1980 MHz boost clock with 8 GB GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus for 14 Gbps bandwidth, PCIe 4.0 interface, three DisplayPort 1.4 and one HDMI 2.0b outputs supporting 7680×4320 resolution

  • Core Clock1730 MHz
  • Boost Clock1980 MHz
  • 8GB GDDR6 memory at 14 Gbps fuels high-resolution textures
  • Boost clock up to 1980 MHz delivers responsive frame rates
  • 2560 stream processors handle complex workloads efficiently
  • PCI Express 4.0 interface provides high-bandwidth data transfer
  • Triple DisplayPort 1.4 plus HDMI 2.0b drives four displays

Target audience

The MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING X is built for enthusiasts who want high frame rates at 1440p and smooth entry-level 4K gaming. It suits content creators needing GPU acceleration in DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5 workflows. The card fits standard ATX builds with a PCI Express 4.0 slot and a sufficient power supply.

Memory capacity and headroom

8 GB of GDDR6 on a 256-bit bus running at 14 Gbps delivers ample bandwidth for modern titles at high settings. The frame buffer handles large texture packs and multi-monitor setups up to 7680 x 4320 without paging. Heavy ray-tracing workloads or future titles with larger asset pools may exceed the available VRAM.

Deciding specification

The Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU with 2560 stream processors and a 1980 MHz boost clock determines the performance ceiling. This configuration sets the achievable frame rates in rasterisation and compute tasks. If your workload demands higher compute throughput or hardware ray-tracing units, a different GPU tier is required.

Questions about this item

Will the PCI Express 4.0 interface work on my PCI Express 3.0 motherboard?

The card is compatible with PCI Express 3.0 slots and will operate at 3.0 speeds. Full 4.0 bandwidth requires a 4.0-capable motherboard and CPU.

How can I confirm the boost clock reaches 1980 MHz after installation?

Run a GPU monitoring tool such as MSI Afterburner or GPU-Z while the card is under load. The sensor readout should show a boost clock at or near 1980 MHz.

Does the box include any power cables or adapters for the 8-pin connectors?

The package contains the graphics card, a quick-start guide and a driver disc. Power cables are not included; use the PCIe power cables from your power supply.
