hey!
I would be thankful if someone could tell me their opinion about GPU choice.

do you know how overclocked rx 5700
will compare to rx 5700 XT?
I saw the specs and i noticed that "XT"
doesn't improve 5700 that much so do you have a better opinion on:
  1. comparing rx 5700 overclocked with rx 5700 XT
  2. does overclock affect heat and GPU lifespan much?
  3. what are the best cooling non-refferential rx 5700 and rx 5700 xt gpus out there?
(I have a high airflow case, just so you know)

thanks everyone for answers and sorry for my english : )
 
Solution
The difference in stock performance is 10-30% (depending on the game) and the difference in price is $50. The pros and cons of performance gains from overclocking can be argued both ways in that the 5700XT can also be overclocked. As with any kind of overclocking, there is always the danger of causing damage to the card components.

For specific reviews of which 5700 and 5700XT is best for you, do your own homework. There's this thing called Google... 🙄

Either compare stock to stock or OC to OC. Comparing a stock 5700 XT to an OC 5700 makes no sense.

From what I've seen both cards overclock similarly, so their relative performance wouldn't change much from OC. So you may as well just look at reviews to see their relative performance and then decide whether that extra performance is worth the extra cost to you.
 
The 5700 is pretty much a 5700XT with 10% of its cores disabled and lower stock boost clocks. You might be able to improve performance a bit with an overclock, but I would still expect it to have around 10% lower performance than a 5700 XT, provide that card's performance isn't getting limited by heat on the reference cooler.
