AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT to cost $169 (4GB) and $199 (8GB)

Posted on Wednesday, December 11 2019 @ 21:57 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

The pricing of the AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT has leaked. VideoCardz reports the 4GB version will debut for $169 while the 8GB version will sell for $199. Overall, this seems a bit more than expected. The official announcement is expected tomorrow.

The direct competition comes from NVIDIA’s GTX Turing graphics cards. The Radeon RX 5500 XT will sit somewhere in between GTX 1650 SUPER and GTX 1660 in terms of performance. The latter SKU is already seeing a price reduction from 219 to 199 EUR.

The RX 5500 XT features Navi 14 XTX graphics processor with 1408 cores. Bear in mind, this is not the full chip, as 1536-enabled cards are exclusively going to Apple’s Radeon Pro series.
