Desperate for gaming Vega news, but I think it will be more about the new CPUs tonight/this morning, with a smattering of Frontier. Hope I'm wrong though.

You are wrong, they've already launched FE, and Raja confirmed gaming Vega at Computex in his Reddit Q&A.

So my hope became reality. I'm awesome.

I have a feeling they will not come with solid facts about Vega. More like announce the launch event will be held separately as usual.

To be precise they haven't officially launched, as there was no availability date mentioned.

The later part of June was stated, pretty sure that's between the 15th-30th June.

They (AMD) launched Polaris at Computex last year, including a majority of the specs, dates, and pricing., May 31st 2016 if you'd like to check for yourself
EDIT: Technically 1st June, but it was like 2 am or something again

RX Vega release end of July @SIGGRAPH
Threadripper + 2x RX Vegas Prey demo @4K Ultra high, that was it, no FPS, nothing, booooooo
What a poo presentation.

We know more about Volta than we do this.

Blegh
Was hoping for at least a glimmer of stats to see if I should wait or not.
Don't think that demo told us much at all.
Beyond the fact that crossfire works I guess, no.
Disapointing. No fps counter on prey, no single card performance, no price or models . End of July doesn't necessarily mean mass availablity, so could still be August/September for non-ref etc? What happened to H1 2017?
Can't help feeling vega might be meh, if they have it running and it's good, why show so little?

Well I am sure that someone with an FE will do some gaming benchmarks, but I bet a lot of people won't want to wait until August/September for availability.

Little disappointing we don't get any model info. But least we have a release date thank god. Seems AMD is keeping so much hidden from Nvidia about VEGA gaming performance. Good or bad I have no idea I just bloody want to upgrade.
Well that's a plus I guess.
Shame they had to demo a private cpu with dual private gpus. Can't even guesstimate with someone running a 1080 ti and ryzen to compare performance.
I would presume it was intentional but clearly I'm not smart enough to see why hiding performance details from competition at this point is a good idea.

Technically Vega is being released then, just not the gaming version.
Waiting to upgrade as well. Wait wasn't too bad before as I was saving, have money now and want to pass on my 290 to a family member. 1080s are fairly resonable now, but g-sync premium puts me off (if/when I change monitor). Was hoping for something one way or another to make decision easier
