Pros
Pro Fan turns off under light load
Unlike for many single-fan cards, Gigabyte added an active fan-stop functionality. The fan turns off when cooling is not needed and therefore the card is not making noise at all times.
Pro HDMI 4K@60Hz and DP 8K@60Hz support
You can use a 4K or an 8K display with this card.
Pro Can fit any chassis
The RX 550 D5 has only one fan. The card measures 4.5" x 6.7" x 1.1" so it should fit any chassis with no problems.
Pro Easy to overclock
You can get Gigabyte's AORUS Graphics Engine utility and overclock the card without having any knowledge on how to do it otherwise.
Cons
Con Can't handle the most demanding games
Though it's better than integrated cards, it's still just a low-budget card. It can not play very demanding games.
