5th card: Will be purchased when more stock arrives, to give me 3x RX Vega 64 AIO in total.

You gonna build a second Vega rig or running all three in the same machine?

So do you have private drivers with HBM voltage working? What is the actual stock voltage?

Private drivers? No but i like the sound of them.

I already have a second system (Threadripper - see below) ready to drive 2x Vega 64's at 4K, alongside my 1800x system running a Vega 64. The TR machine currently has Pro Duo's inside it and my second Vega is living under my desk for the time being.

The screenshot is a couple of weeks old, initially i had both Vegas in my 1800x system, but one of them died. (RIP)

Aha! So that means crossfire support is imminent! (and possibly that HL3 is confirmed, I'm not entirely sure). I'll get a second V64 ordered then.

More Vega brethren, nice to see so many owners.

Just as feedback the new card works flawless, both monitors came straight up with the DP2DVI cables. I tested the game I currently play (The Forest) and it was somewhat idling at 44-60% utilisation 1080p with Reshade and recoring, while max ~1000MHz GPU clock (one peak to ~1500MHz)

The 390X was struggling with the same load.

1750Mhz on the coor 8134 points on 3d mark time spy graphic test

Well internal whatever term, since you always say don't touch HBM voltage....

My Vega 64 LC arrived at my retailer today, they tested it and found it to be faulty (crash after ~20 mins in heaven).

So now the wait for a new one begins.

First of all, im new here so Hi

.

Second, @TonyTurbo78 Nice clocks bro, gonna aim for the same things. I assume you have the AC version ? Of is it LC ? Your temps do make me think its the LC ? Oh and IF it's the AC, what are your fan settings.

Welcome

Yarp the reference mate, one of the first batch, was always my intention to put it in an existing loop so no point in getting anything but the reference air blower. Had to wait a week after purchase for all the EK goodies to arrive. Just had to redo the hard tubing again for the new dimensions, but already had all the necessaries. Rig is in sig below.

Sorry, i liked the sound of private drivers.

Yes i sometimes use drivers that have yet to be released, but not too often as they haven't been signed yet and so i have to disable secure boot. In addition, i can't always reproduce issues if i am using different drivers than the latest publicly available.

That said, i won't talk about if bug a/b/c has been fixed because that then makes a commitment that could change once the driver is ready for reason a/b/c. You get me?

Yet another one

Floors all yours Biffa.

Yay,

Gotta transplant the system its going into, got a new case so the cooler fits.

I was patient, put in a pre-order Aug 21 for the out of stock Aqua Pack for £582.49 and Gibbo delivered

Well they better fix HBM voltage changes; if you are using a different driver then just DONT mention HBM voltage since you have done nothing but warn against it on 17.8.2....

My HBM voltage testing was on public drivers.

Matt, seems none can answer my question here, maybe you can?

Is the Vega 64 power limited compared to the Vega 64 with the AIO? Is there any way to bypass such limitation (if exists), on a custom watercooled Vega 64?

I don't know the differences between the bios. It's possible that the AIO has high voltage and TDP limits and is better binned.
