SAPPHIRE RX 5600 XT Pulse Review

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a 2018 action-adventure game developed and published by Rockstar Games. The game is the third entry in the Red Dead series and is a prequel to the 2010 game Red Dead Redemption. Red Dead Redemption 2 was released for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in October 2018, and for Microsoft Windows and Stadia in November 2019. (Wikipedia).

We test using High settings – we don't use a preset for this game – and the DX12 API.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is another interesting title to look at. At 1080p, the 5600 XT with original BIOS was only 2% behind the the RTX 2060. Updating the BIOS gave the card a 10% performance boost, so it came in 8% above the RTX 2060 and only 3% behind the 2060 Super.

At 1440p, those performance margins stay pretty consistent, with the updated BIOS giving the 5600 XT another 8% lead over the RTX 2060.
