AMD Radeon RX 5700 vs PowerColor Radeon RX 5700 Red Dragon

Comparison of GPU cores for AMD Radeon RX 5700 and PowerColor Radeon RX 5700 Red Dragon graphics cards. The GPU core data contains the number of blocks (in the AMD documentation these blocks are called Shader Engine (SE), while Nvidia calls them Graphics Processing Clusters (GPC), words are different, the essence is the same) and ROP/TMUs (Raster Processing Units). These characteristics have a great influence on the GPU computing power.
