Does this mean I've got to hope my 290x lasts another year

then will buy some good quality lube early 2018
That sounds worse
This is nonsense. Everyone but the most optimistic here were expecting the top Vega card to trade blows with the 1080.Jeezes listen to yourselves. The only reason Vega "sucks" is because most of you have gotten into your heads that it would be a 1080ti contender which was never promised.
I think he's just trying to re-write history, to make it seem like we had unrealistic expectations for Vega, and actually AMD delivered. Which nobody sane believes.U w0t m8? Have you been following the thread?
From the AMD Vega video:

So 31% faster than a Fury X for average framerates.
No thanks, I've waited since Polaris rumors to replace my Fury X, which died.
I've just ordered my "Vega replacement kit".
GTX 1080Ti, G-Sync Asus PG348Q.
A card which has yet to even arrive, but will over 12 months late compared to the competition.
As I said AMD did a great job a marketing ASUS screens, they at least achieved that during this release
In DOOM only, some very selected tests there.
Just not good enough for me giving the sheer size of the die, and the power requirements.
At 20nm it would be acceptable, as it looks like a Fiji die shrink then at 484nm2, but at 14nm. No
Hum you went with that screen ? As I said AMD did a great job a marketing ASUS screens, they at least achieved that during this release
A 64% increase from Vega 56 to Vega 64 for only a 30% increase in FLOPs??
If there was a monitor available that was compatible with both G-Sync & Freesync I'd be interested. But I can't afford to ditch my monitor every time I get a new gpu. Or be forced to stay only with Nvidia or only AMD. And I agree about those Asus stands they take up to much room tooAye, it was that or the Acer, and Acer doesn't see a fault with the monitor if it has under 15 dead pixels.
So if I ended up with a clump of 13 I'd be out of luck with their support.
The Asus looks great, and great reviews as well; only thing I don't like is that obnoxious 3 armed stand it has. Dell, LG, and HP have the competition beat on proper stands.
Shame LG and Dell don't have any 100Hz G-Sync monitors though, I've had nothing but great experiences with them. Especially Dell support.
