XFX RX 5600 XT THICC III Ultra Review

Red Dead Redemption 2 & Forza Horizon 4


RDR2 is, in my opinion, the most visually arresting title on PC to date. It’s incredible what Rockstar has produced and it runs surprisingly well for the visual fidelity on display. That isn’t to say it’s easy at the highest quality preset, in fact it’s to the contrary. The XFX RX 5600 XT is hair under the 50FPs mark (nothing the memory OC can’t overcome quite easily). It is possible to further improve visuals setting the individual settings to Ultra, but for the sake of consistency the visuals slider was set to favour quality and pushed all the way to the end (right). I would stick to FHD here or lower the graphics settings.

Forza Horizon 4 represents par none the most impressive visuals of any racing game to date on the PC. Moreover, Turn 10 has managed to make this a breeze to run on just about all modern hardware. The XFX card runs through this game exceptionally well, and even at 4K delivers 89FPS. With this title, there is no real life qualitative difference between the 5600 XT and say a Geforce RTX 2080 Ti.

As stated above, this game runs exceptionally well and is by far the most visually impressive racing title to date on PC.
