10 Aug 2021 - Graphics card reviewed

A mid to low level graphics card, the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB is found in budget machines nowadays, struggling to meet AAA system requirements.

DirectX 12 gaming system requirements will be met by this gpu.

How well will the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB run 2023 games? We will take a look at the biggest releases and frames per second analysis on Ultra graphics settings. Of the 1000 most demanding recommended specs found in game requirements today, this gpu is more powerful than the graphics requirement of 431 games in todays list.

Now onto the frame rates achieved at 1080p. We are seeing Resident Evil 8 getting 19 FPS with the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB, Dying Light 2 getting 28 FPS and Far Cry 6 getting 22 frames per second. All run on Ultra at 1920x1080 screen res.

With PC gamers looking for larger screen sizes like 1440p we tested the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB by playing Resident Evil 8 which yielded a weak performance. Its FPS results for the graphics settings are as follows - L: 37FPS, M: 29FPS, H: 20FPS, U: 14FPS. Another popular game we tested with this card was Dying Light 2 and that was weak. This graphics card delivered 21 FPS at Ultra 1440p. Another popular title was Far Cry 6 which gets weak results with a 17FPS on Ultra 1440p. After a look at the popular games running at 1440p with the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB, this is going to struggle to keep a solid FPS, but a modern game could have a few options tweaked to get it playable at this res but on low graphics settings.

How many years will the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB in your PC? This Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB card has 12 to 18 months of latest AAA game play left in it before upgrading should be considered

Whats a good PC graphics upgrade for the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB? There are no graphics cards on the current market that would provide a big enough increase in performance to warrant upgrading the Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB.

Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB Game Requirement Analysis

Overview
First off we should point out that this is not the new AMD Vega graphics card line. These new AMD Radeon RX 500 series cards are an uprated version of the RX 400 series that they are replacing. This RX 570 graphics card is one of the higher performance models from the new AMD Radeon RX 500 Series.

The AMD Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB graphics card released in April 2017 as an AMD performance gaming graphics card. This card competes against Nvidia's GTX 1050 Ti and replaces the older Radeon RX 470. As a Polaris refresh, the RX 570 runs at a slightly faster clock speed than the RX 470.

Architecture
It is powered by the 14nm Pollaris 20 GPU, which has 2048 shader processing units, 128 TMUs and 32 ROPs.

GPU
The central unit runs at 1168MHz and goes up to 1328MHz, when the boost mode is triggered.

Memory
The AMD Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB comes with a 8GB frame buffer of GDDR5, through a 256-bit memory interface, while the memory clock operates at 1750MHz.

Power Consumption
With a rated board TDP of 150W, it requires at least a 500W PSU with one available 8+6-pin connector.

Performance
The AMD Radeon RX 570 XFX RS XXX 8GB has been built as a Mid/High performance graphics card for 2017. It will run most triple AAA titles released during 2017 on medium to high graphics at 1080p screen resolution. With adjustments and lowering anti aliasing this RX570 8GB card can confidently maintain 60+ frames per seconds on high graphic settings at 1080p. Moving to 1440p screen resolution and the graphics card may need to be adjusted down to medium in order to maintain 50-60+ fps.

System Suggestions
The RX 570 is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1920x1080. We recommend a mid range R5 Ryzen processor and at least 8GB of system memory for optimal gaming performance from the RX 570.
