In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB are marginally better than the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB.
The RX 5600 XT has a 95 MHz higher core clock speed and the same number of Texture Mapping Units as the RX 5600 XT. This results in the RX 5600 XT providing 13.7 GTexel/s better texturing performance. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The RX 5600 XT has a 95 MHz higher core clock speed than the RX 5600 XT and the same number of Render Output Units. This results in the RX 5600 XT providing 6.1 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
Both the Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB and the Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB were released at the same time, so are likely to be quite similar.
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 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB and the Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB 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 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB and the Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB are the same, which means the RX 5600 XT and the RX 5600 XT have equal limitations when it comes to graphical data transfer.
Both the Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB and the Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB have 2304 Shader Processing Units. Having the same number of SPUs and using the same architecture means that the performance they offer can be compared by looking at the memory bandwidth, Texture and Pixel Rates. In this case, the RX 5600 XT has 13.7 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate and 6.1 GPixel/s better Pixel Fill Rate, but the has GB/sec greater memory bandwidth. Although the GPUs are very similar in performance, the RX 5600 XT takes the edge.
The Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB requires 150 Watts to run and the Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB requires 150 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 550 Watts for the RX 5600 XT and a PSU with at least 550 Watts for the RX 5600 XT. The two GPUs require the same amount of wattage to run. As such, there is no need to worry about which will more significantly affect your yearly electricity bills.

| Mini Review | Overview The AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB is an mid-tier 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. GPU This variant of the Navi 10 XL GPU features 36 Compute Units activated, offering 2304 Shader Processing Units, 144 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The GPU features a 1375 MHz base clock speed and up to 1560 MHz with boost clock, making it an estimated 20% slower than a Radeon RX 5700 8GB. This puts its predicted performance at roughly 20% faster than a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with 6GB high-speed GDDR6 and accesses the Frame Buffer through a 192-bit memory interface, providing total memory bandwidth of 288 GB/s. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 6GB. 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 1080p Gaming. In some limited scenarios at 1440p resolution, 6GB video memory 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 150W, it requires at least a 550W PSU with available 8+8-pin connector. Performance AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT 6GB competes with GeForce GTX 1660 Ti which is available for $329. System Suggestions The Radeon RX 5600 XT MSI Gaming 6GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 2650 x 1480 but is ideally suited for 1920 x 1080. For the most demanding AAA games it should be ideally suited to 1080p. We recommend a mid-tier CPU and at least 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Overview The AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT ASRock Phantom Gaming D2 OC 6GB is an mid-tier gaming Graphics Card based on the first (1.0) Revision of the RDNA Architecture.
