In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB are marginally better than the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB.
The RX 5700 XT and the RTX 2070 have both the same core clock speed and the same Texture Fill Rate. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The RX 5700 XT and the RTX 2070 have both the same core clock speed and the same Pixel Fill Rate. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The RTX 2070 was released less than a year after the RX 5700 XT, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.
The Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The memory bandwidth of the Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB are the same, which means the RX 5700 XT and the RTX 2070 have equal limitations when it comes to graphical data transfer.
Both the Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB have 2560 Shader Processing Units. While the two GPUs have the same number of SPUs, the actual performance delivered by the RTX 2070 is 4531 and by the RX 5700 XT is 4531. Knowing that the shader performance of the RTX 2070 is superior, it is not necessary to examine the GPUs' respective Texture and Pixel Fill Rates.
The RX 5700 XT transistor size technology is 5 nm (nanometers) smaller than the RTX 2070. This means that the RX 5700 XT is expected to run very slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the RTX 2070.
The Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB requires 225 Watts to run and the GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB requires 175 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 600 Watts for the RX 5700 XT and a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the RTX 2070. The RX 5700 XT requires 50 Watts more than the RTX 2070 to run. The difference is significant enough that the RX 5700 XT may have a slight adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the RTX 2070.

| Mini Review | Overview The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB is an Enthusiast gaming Graphics Card based on the first (1.0) Revision of the RDNA Architecture. Architecture The Navi 10 XL GPU offers support for GDDR6 Memory, DirectX 12.0, Vulkan 1.0, and OpenGL 4.5. This variant of the Navi 10 XL GPU features 40 Compute Units activated, offering 2560 Shader Processing Units, 160 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The GPU features a 1605 MHz base clock speed and up to 1905 MHz with boost clock, making it an estimated 15% faster than a Radeon RX Vega 64. This puts its predicted performance roughly in line with the GeForce RTX 2080. GPU The Central Unit is clocked at 1605 MHz, rising to 1905 MHz with boost clock enabled. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with high-speed GDDR6 and accesses the Frame Buffer through a 256-bit memory interface, providing total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 8GB. Under most circumstances, this only proves useful in certain 3D Games whose Settings Require Large Amounts of Memory. However,the GPU itself is aimed for 4K Gaming, In some limited scenarios, 8GB might be a bottleneck and Performance could be better were the Frame Buffer larger, however this would only be an issue in the most demanding games. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 225W, it requires at least a 600W PSU with one available 8+6-pin connector. Performance The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB competes with GeForce RTX 2070 8GB, which is available for $599. Specs currently available suggest the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB performance should be in the same region as the GeForce RTX 2070. System Suggestions The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Kuroutoshikou 8GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840 x2160 (4K). For the most demanding AAA games it should be ideally suited to 4K. We recommend a Very Strong Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Overview The GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB is a High-End Graphics Card based on the Turing Architecture. This is the 'Super' variant of the RTX 2070 and utilises a cut-down version of the RTX 2080 GPU. Architecture It equips a cut-down Turing GPU Codenamed TU104-410-A1 which is a 2nd-Gen Turing GPU and has 40 SM activated, offering 2560 CUDA Shader Processing Units, 160 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The Turing architecture provides the world's first consumer support for real-time ray-tracing technology, or RTX. It is equipped with 288 Tensor Cores for AI purposes. GPU The central unit runs at 1605 MHz and goes up to 1770 MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses an 8GB frame buffer of Second Gen GDDR6 through a 256-bit memory interface, while the Memory Clock Operates at 1750MHz, or 14GHz effective. Total memory bandwidth is 448GB/s. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 175W, it requires at least a 500W PSU with one available 8-pin connector. Performance Performance of the GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB puts it between the RTX 2070 and GeForce RTX 2080 making it a suitable graphics card for 4K gaming yet ideal for 1440p. System Suggestions GeForce RTX 2070 Super 8GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840x2160. We recommend a high-end processor and 16GB of RAM for optimal performance. | |||
