The RX Vega 64 Owners Thread

Change the frequency update on afterburner or similar to 30 seconds and it'll probably show the whole nights data if you do that again. During a game I had a max watt reading of 680w for the card, my cpu is like a 50w eco chip so I guess its feasible the reading is real on a 850w psu. Also I need to swap that cpu as its limiting the card. Waiting for Intel to drop all its prices and on 2011-v3 hopefully, not sure they will :(

£780 wasn't enough of a ripoff, they've magically jumped to £800 today. Amazing how all the usual excuses (s&d, pound vs dollar brexit, price of cheese) can apply to paid for stock :rolleyes:

Dollar continues to be weak in 2017, Sterling is the highest its been all year (+8%). I said ages ago I hoped for a break out to 1.4 and higher in time for launch well that didnt happen but its a maybe right now, Euro is more favoured (+14%) anyone there is benefiting some I guess.
The Vega prices is low stock, if they are replacing 580 with vega then its for sure they intend to mass produce this tech. It should be RRP at some point just a waiting game

The same 3 cards were in stock yesterday for £780, now they've jumped £20 overnight. =/

what happens if you put 1230mv at S7?
Click to expand...
It seemed to boost lower - around 1680 although it wasn't exactly the same part of the game so I may go back and try that again. A strange thing happened last night when I was playing Dishonoured 2 - I whacked the voltage right up to 1250 and after playing for 10 minutes I noticed the frame rate was dropping down into the late 30's - when I flicked back to Wattman the state 7 settings had changed themselves - back down to 1200 Mv but 1252 on the clock!!

I think that happens when the card has a moment, didn't like the settings and reset to a more balanced setting. My card did that quite a bit when I was trying to find the sweet spot. Oh and when I tried to bench 1800mhz today haha.

@AMDMatt and @TonyTurbo78 what FPS are you guys getting on the cut scenes in Battlefield 1? I'm only getting 22 yet around 100 in actual gameplay...
Click to expand...

Cut scenes are totally screwed in bf1 bud. If you alt+enter to go into windowed mode on a cut scene you'll get proper performance. Then just alt+enter again to go back to full screen when gameplay starts.

Update. I hit a magic number tonight, I need to get a video up :)

No come on, spill...

1750/1100 looks nice in your sig by the way. I'd be well chuffed if I could hit that. Not that I'm not satisfied with what I'm getting, those numbers just look nice and... well nice.

haha to funny.

Well, tried 1800mhz @ 1230mhz last night, wouldn't have it inititally. But the curious side of me wanting to push and push, upped it to 1250mhz, got a bench done at 1800mhz (around 1765mhz to 1785mhz in OSD) but annoyingly 3dmark wouldn't accept the score because of a timing failure or something, not sure what that was. Anyway, went in to do some games, BF1 was plodding away at 1787mhz, she was loving it :). Going to play around tonight, see if it's stable but man I'm impressed. I keep telling myself to not push anymore, but the curious in me wants to see how far it will go.

Nice one. The difference between 1230(mv :p) and 1250mv is tiny anyway.

I've had that timing error in every single 3D benchmark I've ran with my Vega card bar one. The first time I enabled HBCC and ran a benchmark I didn't get the error (which I promptly added to the Time Spy bench thread) but it came back the next time I tried it. When you go to 3D Mark'[s troubleshooting guide it says something about detecting software that manipulates time and is therefore considered cheating!! Don't have anything like that on my rig that I'm aware of and I've no idea how to get rid of the error...

Edit: So turned on PC this afternoon - Windows was doing an update - fired up Battlefield 1 - same settings as yesterday - crashed twice with an error message that mentioned all of the following - a run time error - DX12 - device removed - bad command - 17.9.1 - and something mentioning 'destroyed'. The PC froze on both occasions so I didn't get a full note of the error. Rebooted and lowered the clocks a tiny bit - this time the screen went black but the game continued to run. Rebooted again and it let me play ok this time, although that was only 10 minutes or so. (Edit: No - just got the black screen again but with game continuing to play). Not sure if it's related to the windows update or not but it was certainly running ok before it... Thoughts?
