not a rumour, this is someone with vega FE showing game footage and benchmarks.

vega FE is the same as rx vega, same silicone just half the memory.

take it as the titan x Pascal and 1080ti, it might get slightly better (5% ) performance from AIB cooling, but it wasn't thermal throttling as it was at 81c with 4400rpm fan speed.

if I cranked the oem blower on my titan to 100% it would boost up to 2ghz, aib cooling might net 5% more out of it but most of it is for noise levels.
We will see. I do not buy that RX Vega won't be able to beat a 1080. Drivers can make a big difference.

We also had the PCWorld chaps stating it was close to the 1080Ti in their "hands on" preview.
So I'm not sure what AMD's Marketing is playing at. Refused to source any credible reviewers; and instead launch in some limited quantities allowing any ole joe to mess with them.
 
firestrike ultra 1650mz grpahics score 5091.

Which again makes little to no sense considering a Fury X oc is not to far behind. He's using a Duo but only one core. I posted a 1400mhz run on Fury X and it was just under 7000 graphics score. Either the figi core is superior and AMD have taken a step back in IPC which is hard to fathom or something is not right with the drivers being used.

  1. Score 4466, GPU Duo(1) @1172/600, GFX Score 4424, Physics Score 19371, Combined Score 2145, CPU 5960X @4.0, AMDMatt - Link Drivers 16.5.3
 
Why has none of these buggers with the card taken off the shroud! It's an HBM card why is it mahoosive, what does the Heatsink look like?!

I want nudes!

Fury x at 1215mhz needs 1.35v, the power consumption draws around 375-400w. 1400+ needs around 1.9v and ln2 and draws crazy power. If you.put vega on ln2 i'd imagine it'd scale to 1800-1900mhz.

It can only be a few things?
Driver is borked,
The clocks were meant to be higher
The performance is what it is, just pascal is much better.
 
On the brightside folks, the dude test Frontier Edition for mining. It sucks for it. Getting 30-35 MH/s
Also he's getting a joke of a Cinebench OpenGL score, 97.39 FPS

He states no difference in performance between Pro and Gaming driver mode.

That DOOM Score WTF?! That's overclocked Fury X levels again!

How about waiting for the official launch? Drivers clearly aren't ready for primetime yet. Without proper driver support most of the new features probably aren't working which is why we are seeing Fury X-levels of performance.

Clearly drivers aren't optimised, i read somewhere that in one of the games tested half of the screen wasn't rendered correctly lol With proper drivers etc i expect gaming line to reach ti levels or be close to that

This can only be a good thing. Maybe the gaming mode driver doesn't do much/anything differently to the pro mode yet and that's why the performance isn't great. It could be that it's currently a placeholder while they actually finalise optimised gaming drivers.
