The RX Vega 64 Owners Thread

Surprising you stayed with them given all the **** you have given AMD over the last year or so

Yup

I'm not sure that they will be the cheaper brand with their Vega cards, They had the most expensive Vega AIO's at around £790.
Maybe that's my wishful thinking though..

Yeah their LCs are expensive.

Good god, 4 slot?

GTA V running on Vega 64 MGPU and 1950x. GTA V is unfavourable to Radeon and Ryzen, so a double whammy.

hi,

Quick check i have a

Corsair 850W RM850i (Gold) PSU powering:

Asrock X370 Taichi and Ryzen1700 OCed 3.8 with H80i Cooler
16gb Corsair Ram @ 3000
2 x 500gb Samsung Evo SSD
2 x HDD
1 x DVD drive

Currently running my trusty R290.

I am considering getting a Vega64 at the current sales prices. I was waiting for AIB cards, but after seen the Powercolor one no chance.

Question, is my PSU man enough to run this system stable and the Vega64?

Thanks

Yup that crazy pricing for powercolour, don't know who on earth is going to buy AIB models at £600+?!

It has made that vega 64 LC at £600 quite tempting now

Why is that making the AIO card more attractive?

A 120 rad isn't anything special when compared to a triple 92mm air cooler.

 

[silversurfer]

Might as well go with water at that point was my thinking but you might be right. Clearly a review is in order

850w will do it Aricin especially if its a new psu but also check on a psu calculator.

Very smooth 4k GTA5 vid, even one card I dont think does a bad job

Should be more than adequate. I'm running an overclocked threadripper and Vega 56 on a seasonic 750W prime.

Well shes in!, and shes a stunner

Ran through Last Lighty bench to give her a quick test.

Not sure if thats a ok or what, as don't know how high she boosting etc..., its maxed out 1440p.

Gona get me dinner as marvin, then i'll get me pic up for ownage!

Can't even hear the ****** running, no pump whine, like the old Fury X, nothing

EDIT: Pics.

Please ignore all the dust, ive gave her a clean now

EDIT: Old version of Firestrike run.

Scored 18077, Vega core at 1663 according to it.

Just jumped the gun on the Gigabyte Vega64. Read somewhere i need to download drivers from Gigabyte rather than AMD? that correct?

Good go

Good god man, give that a clean before you introduce your new guest.

 

[EsaT]

Says in the article, triple slot.

Looking at size of dual slot rear bracket likely little over three slots.
And anyway those fans need "breathing" space so it will consume full four slots.

Meaning if motherboard's main PCI-e x16 slot is one down from highest possible that means there's really only two slots positions available for anything else.
(unless you want to bake that another card)

False.

Found my 2x Furys Last Light bench score.

Settings used :-

Results :-

so my Vega 64, is only just under 15fps on average slower at it, than what my 2x Furys in Xfire were.

Really need to get the latest AB on, so i can see my temps, clocks, boost etc....

You should rerun the bench with Custom mode set, +50% Power Limit and 1050-1100Mhz HBM.

 

[GingaNinja]

Really tempted by the Gigabyte liquid-cooled version at its current price, but I have a question. Does the Aqua pack come with the games? (Doesn't mention it in the product information.)

Thanks in advance!

Might give that a try tomorrow

Just ran a Heaven 4 custom bench, Ultra Quality, Extreme Tess, 8xAA

Said my Core was running at 1750MHz (which can't be right surely ?), and memory was at 945MHz, which is right.

 

[docious]

Is anyone here with a stock 64 LC able to maintain a stable 1100 MHz HBM clock during games? In BF1 mine often drops to 500 or 800 depending on WattMan settings.
Currently @ P6 1712/1130, P7 1752/1180, HBM 1100/1100 (MHz/mV), +50% pwr.

I guess 1100 MHz HBM could be too far for my particular card but it would be good to know what settings can stabilise it on someone else's.
