In other games not using advanced current gen featuresets, the 5700XT performs equal to the RTX 3060 or 2070 Super.
So yeah, while it starts, it’s basically unplayable on this card. Turing, RDNA1’s older competitor, is still going strong.
It’s not unplayable.
Tested Alan Wake 2 on 5700 XT at 1080p FSR2 Balanced, Low Preset, Textures/AF/SSR on High. Was basically 30 fps locked (if you’d lock it).
It’s not 60+, so it’s not the bestest thing in the world and even Last of Us Remastered runs at 60 fps maxed out in 1080p FSR2 Quality, but it’s fine. On controller you also feel the smaller fps number less.
Op linked to my chart only, not to the news post where i specifically wrote how to make it playable
„That doesn’t mean that RX 5700 XT delivers unplayable results. 1080p at 60 FPS is in reach with lowest settings, or at close to maximum settings with FSR Quality, which is not such a terrible tradeoff, just you still need to make compromises. We didn’t spot any rendering errors or crashes.“
