First up is a look at how the Radeon RX 5700 XT "Navi" graphics performance has evolved in this system since 2020.

RealSR-NCNN benchmark with settings of Scale: 4x, TAA: No. February 2023 was the fastest.
RealSR-NCNN benchmark with settings of Scale: 4x, TAA: Yes. February 2023 was the fastest.
Waifu2x-NCNN Vulkan benchmark with settings of Scale: 2x, Denoise: 3, TAA: Yes. February 2023 was the fastest.
NCNN benchmark with settings of Target: Vulkan GPU, Model: squeezenet. February 2023 was the fastest.
NCNN benchmark with settings of Target: Vulkan GPU-v2-v2, Model: mobilenet-v2. February 2023 was the fastest.
NCNN benchmark with settings of Target: Vulkan GPU, Model: shufflenet-v2. February 2023 was the fastest.
NCNN benchmark with settings of Target: Vulkan GPU, Model: efficientnet-b0. February 2023 was the fastest.
NCNN benchmark with settings of Target: Vulkan GPU, Model: resnet50. February 2023 was the fastest.

The RADV Vulkan performance has evolved a great deal since 2020, which shouldn't be any surprise to daily Phoronix readers... Even with Navi being quite mature now, there's been much improvement with the RADV Vulkan driver over the past three years.

ET: Legacy benchmark with settings of Renderer: Renderer2, Resolution: 3840 x 2160. February 2023 was the fastest.
Tesseract benchmark with settings of Resolution: 1920 x 1080. February 2023 was the fastest.
Tesseract benchmark with settings of Resolution: 3840 x 2160. February 2023 was the fastest.
Xonotic benchmark with settings of Resolution: 3840 x 2160, Effects Quality: High. February 2023 was the fastest.
Xonotic benchmark with settings of Resolution: 3840 x 2160, Effects Quality: Ultimate. February 2023 was the fastest.

The RadeonSI Gallium3D driver providing open-source OpenGL support for the RDNA graphics has also advanced a great deal since 2020.

ParaView benchmark with settings of Test: Wavelet Contour, Resolution: 1920 x 1080. February 2023 was the fastest.
ParaView benchmark with settings of Test: Wavelet Contour, Resolution: 1920 x 1080. February 2023 was the fastest.
Java 2D Microbenchmark benchmark with settings of Rendering Test: Image Rendering. February 2023 was the fastest.
Java 2D Microbenchmark benchmark with settings of Rendering Test: All Rendering Tests. February 2023 was the fastest.

In addition to the gaming performance, even Java OpenGL pipeline usage and other workstation graphics performance have benefited too from the open-source AMD graphics stack enhancements.
