One of the biggest performance jumps I have made. from a 290 to VEGA 64 has been a true upgrade thats for sure. Zero disappointment from my 4GB 290 though it lasted me long enough and hold up well at 1440p mixed settings mind you.

Cracking tune!
Just need them to drop to appropriate prices now....
Yup, the 64 is a great card at the right price combined with a good Freesync screen to take care of the lows
Am just happy I made the jump when they was £470 just below the max £500 I willing to spend on a GPU.
People have asked about this before, IIRC no blocks yet as it uses a proprietary Nano style PCB (the same one Powercolor have been showing off with a Nano cooler recently), it won'e take a reference 64 BIOS AFAIK but "may" take a red dragon 64 BIOS.Hey there fella's
Wanted your advice, I rma'd my reference 56 at the beginning of the month and power color are taking their sweet time to send a replacement so I am being offered the option of the power color Red dragon, does anyone know anything about this card?
Will it still be compatible with any EK water blocks, and can you still 64 bios it?
p.s is it any good?

When was that?
I've never seen a V64 LC for under £600
Shanks bought a air cooled Vega 64 i believe and not the limited edition air cooled or the liquid version, which were both more expensive.
Mine was under
By a penny!

It's a bloody great card on water though, should have been better overall but upgrading from that 390 crossfire rubbish to V64 has been a quality upgrade all round.
Indeed. I Feel like for £459 launch price, I got one hell of a card.
Now I've the 1080ti 2nd pc build next to my gaming rig using the same freesync monitor, there's no comparison to how incredible gaming is on V64 paired with a freesync screen. Even though obviously the 1080ti is a better card, the gameplay experience feels lumpy even when gaming way above 100fps on it.

Work mate of mine is pondering making an all AMD rig, He found a 1080 for the same price as a V64 and is having a hard time deciding, What's the verdict ? Do I tell him the V64 may have better long term support etc... ?
