Notes on 10 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Launch price: TechSpot reports AMD subsidizes this MSRP with a $50 retailer rebate, so street prices often run higher.
  2. 2AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Boost clock: TechSpot's 2400 MHz figure is AMD's 'game' clock; the boost rating is 2970 MHz.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's 550 W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 9950X system; requirements vary with your configuration.
  4. 4NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, Power connectors: Native input is one 8-pin; NVIDIA's 300 W+ PCIe Gen 5 PSU-cable option works via the in-box adapter.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, Power connectors: Corsair notes a few partner 90-series cards use 12V-2x6; the vast majority use 2x 8-pin.
  6. 6NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, DisplayPort version: NVIDIA specifies UHBR20 on these DisplayPort 2.1b outputs.
  7. 7AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, DisplayPort version: TechPowerUp specifies the DisplayPort outputs as UHBR13.5.
  8. 8Intel Arc B580, DisplayPort version: Intel rates the DisplayPort outputs at DP 2.1 up to UHBR 13.5 (second output listed at UHBR 10).
  9. 9Intel Arc B580, Hardware encode: Intel's spec table also lists H.264 and H.265 (HEVC) hardware encode as Yes.
  10. 10Intel Arc B580, Card height: Intel publishes this dimension as the card's 'Width' (115 mm) alongside the 272 mm length.
