Meh

Still much more than thermal compound going by their charts.

It's a great looking GPU that's for sure.

It is, very minimalist and clean looking.

Now we just need Asus to put their sticker on the cooler for a £50 premium.

According to Gamers Nexus AMD response is that is using the Hitachi one, so yeah it will beat the paste. As best paste (Kryonaut) is at 12 W/mk.

FYI Conductonaut (liquid metal) at 73 W/mk.

@Gibbo is been said that AMD will give the acrylic stand with the first 1000 orders.
Is this offer exclusive to the AMD store, which doesn't ship to UK, or you have such offer also for a limited number?

First i've heard of that, 1k of them with a stand and possibly a vega die inside? @Gibbo any info on this?

Will be interesting to find out how it performs out of the box. I suspect it will be another tweaker's paradise.

Any idea if this will be on preorder here yet or will it be a case of first come, first serve on launch? I need to upgrade my 290-X lol

Zeed · 4 Feb 2019 at 16:47

Question is why would anyone preorder this card

tyler_jrb · 4 Feb 2019 at 16:52

Having just seen TTL’s preview video, really is a nice looking card. Very clean looking with the three fans.

Any news on the performance?

Watched the Gamers Nexus teardown. Offers something a little different than someone just opening a box. Which seems to be a big thing on the internet before we get any actual news of substance.
Would not be surprised if we had people with cameras recording themselves putting stuff into boxes and call it "content". Oh the irony...
Anyway i hope to be buying a Radeon VII.

Wouldnt mind one of these cards. it'd mean id have to sell two Vegas though

Gonna be funny seeing the listings on launch day and yet again asus will be more expensive for no reason.

Especially when they end up being the only ones in stock. :confused:

But they don't care. :cool:
