Cheapest 5600 XT I think?
CamelCamelCamel also says it's the cheapest this particular model has been.

agreed
Thanks, I've added this to the title :)
I guess this card would offer better flexibility in the case you end up ITX'ng your build. Would fit smaller cases like the Silverstone sg13 better.
The size isn't that much different though? 254 x 135 x 46.5 Sapphire Pulse vs 240 x 118 x 40 PowerColor.
it would make a difference since the PowerColor just fits nicely whereas the Sapphire requires a case mod
@hanke: Interesting, I thought I read somewhere the case could fit card up to ~260mm. Good to know.
Is this a good buy and comparable to RTX2060?
It depends on how much you can get the RTX2060 for. I saw the eVGA RTX2060 KO on Amazon for ~$510 a few days ago. At that price, I would go with the RTX2060 just due to the better features. The NVENC encoder is fantastic, I tend to prefer Nvidia drivers and I find CUDA to be a better platform than OpenCL for compute. Not to mention the 2060 is marginally faster in games (but I'd say it's not noticeable).
I wouldn't pay more than $50 or so for the 2060 though.
Prices are coming down! Finally!
New Navi cards are only around the corner. Would rather wait.

5600xt or 5700xt for extra 43% in $ decisions………………..
43%… almost sounds like a no-brainer LOL. But… that 43% could mean struggling vs smooth sailing in 1440p gaming.
try to buy a standard 5700 and flash the bios, I've done this a few times.
Pretty close to XT performance.
Any driver issues still ?
I never experienced driver issues from the 5700s nor once they were flashed to XT's.
I did have driver issues with a regular 5700xt which has now been resolved from updates.
Man these new deals are getting me excited… now just need to make sure not to peak too early…
I'd personally go with the Sapphire Pulse at the same price: https://www.amazon.com.au/Sapphire-11296-01-20G-Radeon-Backp…
