Will get one taken and up tomorrow, as got to go out in a bit :( :p

Just been playing a bit of DOOM in Vulkan, on the Nightmare Texture Setting, and everything else maxed as well, was getting around 170/80fps :eek:, got the weird white line effect though, but a bit of googling found how to fix that, so will try that tomorrow as well :D

Yep sorted that, got rid of them by putting the AA to TSSAA(8TX) :)

Also, I seem to be the odd one out in that I don't think it looks that good. it's a grey/silver box. How many highly paid people did it take to come up with "grey box" as a design choice? The box it comes in looks better, imo.

I thought the same, that they didn't look that great until I actually got mine. Don't know what other way to say it, but, they are beautiful cards. You can't really comment until you see it one person. And believe me, you would change your opinion pretty quickly.

Vega 64 got some new company :) PC upgrade just finished tonight, out with the 3770k, Z77 motherboard, DDR3 1600mhz and H105 AIO - and in with an 8700K, z370 Gaming M5, DDR4 3600mhz, Kraken x62 AIO and 500GB M.2 Samsung SSD :)

Annoyingly had to do the PETG tubing again today, the PCIe slot was slightly lower on this board, down 1 slot so to speak so old tubing wouldn't fit. Had to run with some old crappy Corsair LED fans for the push on the rad in the roof, got two 140mm Riing fans on order from OCUK to match the one in the back of case. Just in the process now of getting all the software back on, then will bench and see how the scores compare over the next few days.

Didn't it come in anti-static bags?

Also, I seem to be the odd one out in that I don't think it looks that good. it's a grey/silver box. How many highly paid people did it take to come up with "grey box" as a design choice? The box it comes in looks better, imo.

My MSI RX VEGA 64 WAVE do not contain anti-static bags, not sure if it is normal?
It is appreciated that if any MSI VEGA 64 WAVE user can give any feedback.

In this video, the VEGA 64 did not come in anti-static bags.

Great looking build and that's a nice upgrade man! My Vega 64 is concerned that it may no longer be the fastest Vega 64 on OcuK! :p

Mine didn't either, but my other Vegas (Sapphire and Powercolor) did.

In terms of overclockability.
Best card = Powercolor
Worst = Sapphire

The Wave card is great because core and HBM temps are exactly the same so the contact between the coldplate/core/HBM must be excellent. On the Powercolor card there can be 4-5c difference at times.

I challenge your 64 against my 56 Matt :p
