Custom Radeon RX 5500 XT Cards Start listing at Etailers
Over in the land way east, in China, the first Radeon RX 5500 XT cards have started listing. AMD is set to launch the mainstream cards next week on the 12th, in an aim to tackle NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1650 Super.
The product pages do not list specs or photos, however, 8GB is confirmed as you can read out from the names, meaning AMD will out 4GB and 8GB SKUs of the card series. I am afraid that if we look at pricing then we have little to be excited about, the 8 GB models start at RMB ¥1,499 including taxes, and that is just over $210 USD. So for the EU that could easily run towards 240 EUR.
Listed are cards from ASRock, Sapphire, Yeston, and XFX. Dates are threefold, pre-orders start today (5th December), it ships on the 12th and the earliest delivery would be the 15th of December depending on the region. China is a rather big country though, admittedly.
I just love the Google translation on that Sapphire Platinum edition, oh you'll laugh when you see it ;)

If the price is like that, now it really makes fully sense why 5600 is rumored about having only 6gb vram. To be placed "smoothly" between 5500xt and 5700-non-xt.
