What does this comparison mean?

Both the RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT have 8GB, with the XT ahead by 21 FPS. Moving between these first-generation RDNA cards buys more recorded throughput, rather than extra capacity or a new architecture.

Both variants have 8GB of graphics memory. Memory capacity, board dimensions, power connectors and the price of a particular used card are separate from this benchmark. Compare the exact item before deciding whether to upgrade.

The two GPUs in context

RX 5700 8GB

The RX 5700 launched in July 2019 as an 8GB first-generation RDNA card below the RX 5700 XT. The non-XT suffix identifies a separate GPU configuration with its own recorded result.

RX 5700 XT 8GB

The RX 5700 XT is an 8GB Radeon model introduced with the first RDNA generation in July 2019.

How the figures are compared

Both FPS figures come from the owner-supplied GPUsed benchmark dataset. GPUsed reports a continuous FurMark run at 1080p for its physical-card checks. The percentage compares the higher model average with the lower one using the original FPS values. Our rating uses a compressed scale, with the fastest GPU at 100; it is separate from the percentage difference. A benchmark result does not predict gaming FPS.

GPUsed reports its physical-card checks typically last 30 to 60 minutes while temperature and stability are checked. The owner supplied the model-level FPS workbook on 2 October 2026; this benchmark dataset was last reconciled 3 October 2026. Historical cards tested are separate from the number of FPS runs behind a model average. Full benchmark method.
