Poll: ASUS STRIX AMD VEGA 64, under £450, interested?

[nutsnut]

Can't decide on grabbing one of these or paying a little more and go for a 1080ti.

a little more? when the strix was £449 most 1080ti's were ~50% more expensive - that's hardly a little bit....unless i missed a deal on the 1080ti's?

 

[Figo]

There was one going on here for £550 or so - thats around 25% increase in price for a similar increase in performance I guess.

Depends on your setup. I got shot of my 1080 for the V64 and couldn't really be without adaptive sync now... and poke paying a Gsync tax for no reason

Sold my 1080ti for Vega 64, needed it for work and also wanted to invest in something that would improve with time, sure the 1080ti is faster now, the games deal did it for me 3 games and strix VEGA 64 for 450, sold the games already so badibasicvega for £400~

you the man....cracking price on it @449 - if it fits i'm keeping my fingers crossed for the same price (or close) come black friday - that said, even at 499 it's not the worst deal

almost 100% certain that you'll be fine. have a hunt though the thread below for settings to undervolt (and improve performance!)

750 easily enough, and yep undervolt as per quote. The G3 is a sold psu which could eseasi exceed( it won't though) 750w, read Johnny guru review

Aw that’s a bummer for you mate. Bet you’ve been itching to get playing with the new card all day.

So was there there any update from Asus about the cooling solutions on the cards or have they all got this heating problem still?
