The RX Vega 64 Owners Thread

There is a reason for that, 3440x1440 is bugged in this bench sadly, look at your screenshot again. :D

I welcome your 1080P and 1440P scores though. My Vega 64 rules them all. :p

Still don't see what I'm looking for in the screenshot? :confused: I did try running it at 1440p but it set the resolution to fill my screen anyway and I got a score only a little bit higher than when I selected the 3440x1440 resolution. It seems to be an intermittent problem I have - with one driver install my resolution will behave normally in games, for example if it's an old game that only supports 4:3 aspect ratio it will display the black bars at the side of the screen. On my next driver install however, it will stretch all resolutions to fill the screen regardless as to what I have selected in the game options menu or in 'Scaling mode' in Radeon settings. If you select 1080 or 1440p in Superposition does it run the benchmark with black bars down the side for you?

My vega 64 now uses more volts on loading screens in games than the actual game rendering itself.

At 1000mv and 950mv for the HBM, AB detects it as sub 1v at 1540mhz in games.

This has absolutely changed the fan levels for me.

If every card launched like this the reference would be seen differently.

I'm pretty sure I can lower the voltage further but it affects my core clock a bit.

You probably need to under-volt & play with the power slider. My best score after a bit of playing around with my vega 56 on stock bios was this:

https://www.3dmark.com/fs/13658277 - 1000mv +50% power target, hbm at 930 & a very small overclock (1.5%)

Will do, thanks. Upped the power to +50% but fire strike crashed. Will keep tinkering. Maybe my 750w PSU isn't able to handle that?

I can hardly stress the card on any games, only benchmarks. You set it to 1750 and can hit that in benches but load a game and it hits the framerates without the high clocks*. That’s not an “overclockers dream” (from a numbers point of view) I admit, but a great result nonetheless. I play BF1 the most of anything, and it never goes over 1300 odd at full detail. Temps are negligible.

I just leave mine at 1600MHZ in wattman. It's the opposite of an overclockers dream. Out of the box settings are crap for pretty much every scenario. I tend to hover around 1560MHZ or so. If I ever need the extra 10% or so from another 150MHZ then it's not worth the extra noise and power consumption, I'd be best off upgrading.

This is me playing games, Mass Effect Andromeda 100% the card entirely, I could ideally do with double the performance for this game lol.
 
Sorry didn’t mention I have mine on a water block which made a decent difference. I am a bit old school though. I just want to find the highest mulltiplier/voltage/temp combo. Note to self - 9800 pro days are gone!

i7 5930K, Asus x99-A mobo, Asus Xonar U7 USB soundcard, Sapphire Vega 64 LC on the 17.11.2 drivers, 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 2800Mhz Ram, 2x Crucial M550 1Tb SSDs, Win 7 Pr 64bit.

HWINFO64 v5.60, when going to the Sensor Tab, came up something about reading an Asus one (which im presuming is on the board), but just told it not to bother reading that one (selected skip or whatever it was, forget now :p), then it black screened, and all LEDs on the card were off (only the cube and Radeon logo were lit), and the radiator fan span down, so tried a couple of hard restarts, but was still a no go, card wouldn't power up (the single power LED still wouldn't light up), had to do a hard shutdown (with the switch), to get it to come back to life.

Then i went and changed me duds :D

When did you buy a Vega Loadsa? :p;)

I can't topple an AMD guy can I?? ;):p

Jokes aside, you know something weird Matt, for love nor money I can't get my core clock higher than 1750mhz on this new hardware. It was hitting 1800mhz all day long on that old Z77 and 3770k so I can't really understand why. I'm starting to actually question now if it was actually reporting the core clock accurately as it was such an old rig. Definitely a weird one.
