3DMark Time Spy

Rendered at QHD or UHD resolutions and making use of DX12 technologies such as asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter and multi-threading, Time Spy is a modern 3DMark benchmark that hints at GPU potential in today's latest games.

Now you see why AMD felt moved to increase the speed of the RX 5600 XT. Comparing against the base BIOS, the new one adds nine per cent extra performance. It's important, too, as the hike brings the Sapphire card to proximity with the aforementioned MSI RTX 2060.

It's interesting to see that this Pulse also gets mighty close to the RX 5700 version, and one questions why the two products exist when their performance is so close.

The Pulse cooler shows its mettle by producing the best stability result of any card. Sapphire certainly knows how to offer consistent run-to-run performance.
