9 days. I'm not expecting reviews til the day itself tbh, nothing has been stated.

I don't think it'll go much past 1800 if at all. Lisa Su said "up to 1800mhz" so I'm taking her at her word, I think it will hit 1800 once those that buy one do all the tweaking it'll need. I'd love to be proven wrong though. Also don't forget that I'm talking about clock speeds under use, After undervolting & overclocking my last Vega would show as being clocked at 1697 mhz in Wattman but the true core clock under use was somewhere between 1600 and 1640. That was a Red Devil that had a claimed box speed of 1630 mhz.

I'm sure the nvidia cards recently were reviewed before they were released, no?
Soldato
No, which is what the entire ***storm was about. People pre-ordering cards at huge expense without a single review or performance number, and then when launch finally happened and the cards were underwhelming...
Soldato
I see..... so either bite the bullet on release day, or wait for reviews and possibly not be able to get one, hmmmm

I would pre order alex daddario
Yeah but you pretty much know what quantity and quality you will get for your money, If you dont just go and watch the 1st series of True Detectives. Radeon VII on the other hand I will want reviews before I put my money down. It will need to be relatively quite and not run too hot, as well as being around the 2080 in performance.

I think she would need to be the same as a radeon 7, but I would expect better than 2080ti sli performance
Yeah.

Looks underwhelming. Sad I cancelled my 2080 order for £540 now!

Here is the instinct cards results which make it better than a 2080 by a good margin

Yeah that was pretty nuts. If it trades blows with the 2080 though it's done its job

If you read the twitter he says that the Radeons score is the graphics score only, which beats the 2080 ,jeez read before you type XD
So an overclocked 2080 just beats it in firestrike? Looking at 2080's sold by ocuk the max boost clock card is 1890 mhz for over £800 so if the radeon comes in at £650 ish then it still makes it viable.
