It's highly unlikely they will, the Vega FE is about on par with a GTX1070 for mining. Nobody is buying them because why would you when they use double the power of a GTX1070 and cost three times as much.

We're not, its just banter
I don't think anyone is. People are just discussing what would happen if it were right.

this is an AMD launch so anything is possible. We are all here hoping they have something up there sleeves, but it could just be wishful thinking, it's hard to imagine in all this time all they have managed is higher power usage and gtx1080 performance. The leaks so far all point to this being true.

So justification of the price is based entirely on a cost of a monitor lol. If this is the case they are dead lol.
I have a 1080p and a 4k already, why would I also consider purchasing based on freesync monitor? I highly doubt I am the minority.

Top RX Vega to cost same as GTX 1080Ti

At that price it's €200 more than some AIB 1080Tis. It can compete?!?!
If true it's disgusting.

It really does look like they have targeted making money outside gaming for this round and are trying to market the gaming Vega the best way they can with what they have.

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAAH Is all I have to say to AMD. I am AMD fanboy but this is just ridiculous. Nobody will buy something that does not perform
the same as a 1080TI what kind of madness is this.
Nvidia's slides for Pascal were spot on, they said the 1080 would be soemthign like 15% faster than the 980ti and that the 1070 would just clip the 980ti.You laugh now but the insane slides are coming
No one in their right mind trusts the BS slides from either side now shirley!??
Not that I would trust nvidia's numbers outright in the future, all depends on the markets. With Pascal Nvidia new they had a clear performance lead and zero competition so being straight ot he point worked. IF Nvidia have a lemon on their hands in the future then the numbers will be very suspect.

They do it's called a moron.
If Vega is a flop it will be a case of repeatedly trying the same thing and expecting a different outcome :s

AMD are probably pulling an Nvidia trick where they throw silly prices around and then sell at a slightly less silly price so that all the numbskulls think it's a bargain cause it isn't the original sillier price.
If they had something up their sleave they would have just leaked some benchmarks.
Smoke and mirrors means only one thing.

Yup, like they did with Ryzen smashing Broadwell a new one for months and months before...

You're meant to learn from your mistakes, I'm struggling to understand what the plan was, Even the Cylon's plan in Battlestar Galactica made more sense than there's and that's saying something.
Maybe they never intended to sell many, What ever happens they won't be coming out of it smelling of roses, that's for surehttps://www.nordichardware.se/nyheter/radeon-rx-vega-prislapp-sverige.html
