AMD Radeon RX 5300 XT OEM

The AMD Radeon RX 5300 XT OEM is a 7 nm graphics card built on the RDNA 1.0 architecture, utilizing the Navi 14 chip fabricated by TSMC. It contains 6,400 million transistors on a 158 mm² die, achieving a transistor density of 40.5 million per square millimeter. Released in 2019, the card sits at the 50th percentile of all GPUs in the database, meaning it represents the median performance point. With a boost clock of 1845 MHz and an FP32 throughput of 5.196 TFLOPS, this end-of-life OEM part is positioned for mainstream 1080p workloads. The data shows a card that balances power efficiency with rasterization capability, though it lacks dedicated ray tracing and tensor cores.

Benchmark Performance

The RX 5300 XT OEM's percentile rank of 50 is a direct measure of its standing: exactly half of all GPUs in the database are faster, and half are slower. The average benchmark score is listed as zero, an anomaly in the data, likely reflecting the absence of standardized test results for this OEM-specific SKU. However, the percentile rank is derived from available metrics and provides a reliable reference. The FP32 compute rate of 5.196 TFLOPS is the primary indicator of single-precision performance, while FP16 reaches 10.39 TFLOPS through a 2:1 ratio, meaning half-precision operations can be processed at double the speed. The pixel rate is 59.04 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 162.4 GTexel/s, with 32 ROPs and 88 TMUs driving these figures. Clock speeds are specified as a base of 1670 MHz, a game clock of 1717 MHz, and a boost clock of 1845 MHz. The game clock is the most representative of real-world sustained performance, as it sits between the base and boost figures. The 50th percentile rank suggests that this card is a solid entry-level option, but without nearestRivals data, specific percentage deltas against competitors cannot be calculated. The data implies that the card's performance is sufficient for 1080p gaming, though the lack of benchmark scores means exact frame rates are unknown.

Ray Tracing and Feature Set

The FACT PACK explicitly lists rtCores as null and tensorCores as null, confirming the absence of dedicated hardware for ray tracing and tensor operations. This is a defining characteristic of the RDNA 1.0 architecture, which does not include such cores. The card supports DirectX 12 (12_1), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4, providing a modern API foundation for gaming and compute workloads. Without RT cores, any ray tracing effects must be computed using the 1408 shading units, which would severely impact performance. The absence of tensor cores means that AI-accelerated features like DLSS are not supported, though AMD's alternative technologies are not mentioned in the data. The display output configuration includes one HDMI 2.0b port and three DisplayPort 1.4a ports, allowing for multi-monitor setups. The bus interface is PCIe 4.0 x8, which offers high bandwidth for data transfer, though the x8 lane count may limit performance in bandwidth-sensitive applications. The 7 nm process node from TSMC is a key enabler of the card's efficiency, allowing 6,400 million transistors to operate within a 100 W TDP.

Who Should Consider It

The data points to a card that is best suited for 1080p resolution gaming. The 4 GB GDDR5 memory and 112.0 GB/s bandwidth are adequate for 1080p textures, but the 128-bit bus width and 4 GB capacity are limiting factors for higher resolutions. The 50th percentile rank places it in the middle of the performance spectrum, so it is not a high-end solution. The 32 ROPs and 88 TMUs, combined with a pixel rate of 59.04 GPixel/s, suggest a capacity for standard rasterization workloads. The end-of-life production status means it is no longer manufactured, so it would be found in existing OEM systems or the used market. The 100 W TDP and dual-slot design make it suitable for compact or low-power builds, and the 180 mm length allows for installation in most cases. The lack of RT and tensor cores means it is not future-proof for ray-traced titles or AI-based upscaling, so users should consider this card for current-generation 1080p titles rather than upcoming high-end releases.

Memory Subsystem

The RX 5300 XT OEM is equipped with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 112.0 GB/s. The memory clock is 1750 MHz, which translates to 7 Gbps effective. This configuration is a limiting factor for high resolutions. At 1080p, 4 GB is sufficient for most current titles, but at 1440p or 4K, the capacity and bandwidth become bottlenecks. The 112.0 GB/s bandwidth is modest compared to the texture rate of 162.4 GTexel/s, meaning the memory subsystem may struggle to feed the texture units in texture-heavy scenes. The 32 ROPs further constrain pixel output, with a pixel rate of 59.04 GPixel/s. For users targeting high refresh rates at 1080p, this memory subsystem is adequate, but the data does not support expectations of high-resolution performance. The 128-bit bus width is a clear indicator of the card's mid-range positioning, as higher-tier cards typically feature wider buses. The memory type is GDDR5, which is an older standard, and the 4 GB capacity is a limiting factor for games with high-resolution texture packs.

Power and Cooling

The card has a TDP of 100 W, which is a relatively low figure for a GPU with 5.196 TFLOPS of FP32 performance. The suggested PSU is 300 W, and it draws power via a single 6-pin connector. The dual-slot cooling solution is standard for this power level, and the card measures 180 mm (7.1 inches) in length. The 7 nm process node from TSMC contributes to the efficiency, as the 6,400 million transistors are packed into a 158 mm² die. The thermal design appears to be within the capabilities of a typical dual-slot cooler, though specific cooler specifications are not provided. The low power draw makes it suitable for systems with modest PSUs, and the 300 W recommendation provides a comfortable margin for the rest of the system. The 100 W TDP also means that the card produces less heat than higher-power GPUs, which can be beneficial for small form factor builds with limited airflow.

How It Compares

The FACT PACK lists no nearest rivals for this GPU, so direct comparisons to specific competitors are not available in the data. However, the 50th percentile rank provides a contextual anchor: this card is exactly average among all GPUs in the database. Its predecessor is listed as Vega, and its successor is Navi II, indicating its place in the AMD product stack. The RDNA 1.0 architecture and Navi 14 chip are shared with other cards in the RX 5000 series, but without rival data, the analysis must rely on the card's own metrics. The 5.196 TFLOPS FP32 throughput, 4 GB VRAM, and 100 W TDP collectively define a mid-range, power-efficient offering. Since it is an OEM part, it is likely to appear in pre-built systems rather than retail channels, which explains the lack of benchmark data and nearest rivals in the database. The absence of rivals in the data means that its competitive positioning is defined solely by its percentile rank, which places it at the median of all GPUs tracked.
