What is the deal with the Nvidia card at 24 minutes?

Don't, It's a fair price plus you get Far Cry 5 with it. I spent £800 on the Vega 64 Nitro plus LE which I then sold at a loss a month later as I couldn't stomach the lacklustre performance for what I spent, I was an idiot, You did alright. I'm considering grabbing another now prices have calmed down.
What do you mean? The colour difference or something else?

The cheapest 1070Ti is £399.
However if you went for the Asus Strix version of each card there's only £49 difference.

It's a pity they didn't compare the FuryX with the Vega 64, top cards vs each other rather than top vs 2nd top (assuming you don't count the dual GPU card) of the previous generation.
It seems the Vega is around 50% faster than the Fury. I'm not sure which card that result is best for considering there are 26 months between the cards release dates (which is a bigger gap than 290X -> Fury X). Are there any videos on how Fury X compares to 290 non-X these days?
Not sure what the "expected" gap would be for cards a generation (~2 years) apart.
Fury performance didn't seem bad though.

You've bought what's the best non reference V64 on the market regardless of how many plugs it has.

Has anyone tries to watercool the Power Devil? Seeing the PCB design it does seem that the reference PCB will work.

Are you nuts? The gap between at least one of the holes is way off!! You can always do what a m8 of mine did once and drill a hole in his motherboard

Yeah ignore me. Found waterblock for the Nitro+. Going to put the 1080Ti Xtreme back for sale.

Am I right in thinking that Vega flies in Vulkan games, thereby beating the 1080 easily?
Soldato
Yeah, and also the Strix is used, the worst one apparently
There is a great video from last week, comparing Strix, Nitro, Red Devil and reference with various settings, overclocks and BIOS.
Nitro and Red Devil are absolutely beasts imho.
The new Basemark GPU bench which uses Vulkan gives some interesting results.
Pascal cards are quick on the test but Volta really flies.
Titan V using the default 4k preset on the Basemark bench.
How relevant this is to gaming with Vulkan I don't know.

I have 2700x and vega 64 under water, you want some average frame rates for high settings?
