And look at the power the RX580 consumes. The RX580 at the same clocks is no more efficient than the RX480.
GF may be to blame but the process hasn't matured much. And the process can only explain so much, the GCN architecture has just run its course. You see this with Vega, a massive chip and lots of theoretical performance but it can barely keep up with a GP104 that is way smaller.
If true and he doesn't return to the same position is it a surprise? I don't think so, He may be a good architecture designer but he's no good as a boss, He's completely destroyed my faith & trust in AMD's Graphics team over the way everything Vega has been handled, Nothing but smoke & mirror's, Vega isn't necessarily a bad product, far from perfect yes but handled right it could have been well received even as it is. But the man at the reigns was in over his head. I'm annoyed that after a year of waiting I ended up with a GTX 1080 I don't really want. All the big Vega info events over the last year have been a joke, There's numerous examples but here's a couple, He did an event where he promised news about Vega at the end, That keep us waiting & watching a boring presentation about a Bollywood movie and Vega's supposed importance in creating a virtual backdrop which is not exactly something new. So we sat through that and when we finally reach the end we get a 4 second titbit where he tells us Vega will be named Vega and leaves the stage. It seems to me that he's used his position at AMD to promote stuff in his home country rather than focusing on Vega and it's position on the World stage. On the final day's leading to the release he had Linus doing a Vega presentation where they seemed to have hijacked a middleschool bus full of pre-teens to watch the unboxing of a non product, ie: Show the card for ten seconds and then pull out the cube and make that the focus of this Vega event. Raj Koduri's handling of the situation has been dire. RTG is a mess at the moment so if it's true and Mr Koduri doesn't come back good riddance.
The King is dead, Long live the Queen.
Vega is doing well - it's a great update for those already rocking freesync monitors. I'm extremely happy with my Vega64 Liquid Edition, it runs my BenQ XL2730Z 1440P 144Hz monitor perfectly, and is very quiet at the same time. I also love the limited edition cards looks, the best looking card I've ever had by a long shot.
For those with freesync monitors, Vega is a no-brainer. For those with gsync or non adaptive sync monitors, the 1070/1080 are the best choices.

Hi, I thought the same, the AIO's a lovely card but it's not worth £800 which is what's being charged for it. The air-cooled reference Vega's aren't a good deal either.

When they work proper...
Waiting on the AIB's now.
Still zero news from anyone but Asus, like they're not that bothered at all about it. Weird.
and bought a Ryzen 1700x, m/b and new case
Nice purchase
I only went for the 7700K tbh as I only game now on my system, with a little encoding thrown in now and again for good measure. It'll still be good for a couple of years til I do a major upgrade
AMD needs again products like the Radeon 3870, Radeon 3870 X2, Radeon 4870, Radeon 4870 X2, Radeon 4890, Radeon 5870.
After those, somehow the Radeon 6970, Radeon 7970 Ghz Edition, Radeon 290X/390X were all somehow... not that strong.... and the company began to lose focus. Fury X and Vega 64 the weakest gamingwise.
