SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 550 2GD5 Review

This is one good card for gamers on a budget, the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 550 retails at around RM 400 but price varies, I’ve seen prices going to the range of RM 500. 🙁

So here it is, the SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 550 is simple card with a single fan cooler. It’s so cool it doesn’t even need the fan to run at full RPM.

The back of the card is as expected for low end models, no back plate.

The Benchmarks

The SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon RX 550 here outperforms the GT 1030 but not by far, they don’t separate from one another much when it comes to performance.

The Verdict

There’s nothing to fault on this card, appearance is preference so I can’t say it’s ugly and I don’t think it is ugly at all.

The SAPPHIRE PULSE Radeon is RX 550 a neat compact card with expected performance at RM 400 price range, unfortunately with the mining craze the price can be more than 20% of its SRP.
