Poll: ** The AMD VEGA Thread **

[harney]

It's ok, you'll save loads buying a freesync monitor, even if you don't need one!

Yes the money saved will have go towards a PSU

Bloody joke if all this is true. Freesync and pointless side by side comparisons ain't going to do it. What have RTG been doing all this time? A half arsed job on a Fury X would probably yield better or similar results.

I don't believe it unless that's a card that slays a TitanX or they are taking the ****.

Telling you mate! AMD is ready to unleash their next titan killer. FE was from a previous revision that's bunk for 3D, but good for everything else; it's also why it's so hot.

Vega XTX will slaughter the Titan, and be priced similarly. The drivers will be revealed at Siggraph, and have a minimum 60% boost in performance.

Even the latest 17.2.2 drivers have no specific Vega references, they're sandbagging harder than a jap at Okinawa in the 40's. /s

Get your pint of water ready. It'll be a bit dry and salty, and very hard to get down.

RX Vega XTX and XT will be branded as RX Vega 64, RX Vega XL will be branded as RX Vega 56.

8GB RX Vega 64 watercooled will not be any cheap but look like it will be $300 more expensive than 1080 Ti.



1155€ = $1351 = £1029

Guess it will same price as £999 16GB RX Vega Frontier Edition air cooler.

lol wow... Funny thing is I find this more believable than it being priced low ...

 

[D.P.]

My guess is that come sunday we'll see an announcement of the actual release date; AMD haven't confirmed anything other than an announcement, so no actual launch date in sight: https://twitter.com/Radeon/status/881233662821486593

I think this is the case, an announcement of the actual launch date which is probably a month later, with some more tit-bits of info and maybe architecture and a fake benchmark or 2. Then on the actual launch date we will get all the usual details, a host of fake benchmarks and told the availability will be in another 3 weeks etc.


Nothing AMD is doing makes it seem like there is a full on Launch event.

haha Brilliant

Both Radeon RX Vega 64 variants are to be shown at SIGGRAPH in 3 days. The full chip cards will be available in August, but from what I heard, they won’t hit the shelves anytime soon. As for the RX Vega 56, this model is expected to launch September. It will only be available from AIB partners.

 

[D.P.]

the launch is in a few days, it would be completely bonkers if reviewers don't already have review samples

Kyle at HardOcp didn't, otherwise he wouldn't have needed an AMD rep to come around and setup a Vega system for his blind test.

What are you a snake? Stop making /s /s noises.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Remember the Fury X, that was £125 more expensive than the faster 980Ti, and it also had less vram.

RX Vega XTX and XT will be branded as RX Vega 64, RX Vega XL will be branded as RX Vega 56.

I honestly don't understand what they are thinking with this naming...

They got from the Radeon 7000 series all the way through to the HD8000 series fine, 11 series of cards in a relatively organised numbering scheme. Then they did 200-500 series, four series of cards in a organised numbering scheme. And now they have just lost the damn plot and jumped back to the RAGE XL GL 128 VR Ultra FURY PRO MAXX era >.>

 

[FoxEye]

And now they have just lost the damn plot

Looks like it, if the rumours have any truth to them.

A hot, noisy, power-hungry 1080 for the price of a top-end AIB 1080ti OC.

Get your wallets out, chaps
