Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of Radeon RX 5300 specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The Radeon RX 5300 scores 7,606 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Budget tier as a Aging generation graphics card. It is built on the RDNA 1.0 (2019−2020) architecture (codename: Navi 14), manufactured on a 7 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 1408 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 88 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 32 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 4.632 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1645 MHz from a base of 1327 MHz.
