Hi All, managed to solve the Crysis 3 frame rate problems - just turned on triple buffering for opengl on the AMD driver panel and now getting solid 60fps with the exception of a couple of frames dropping very very rarely and un-noticeably
Set at FXAA and max settings on a 1440p resolution monitor - the game looks stunning...

How much does one of those cost. I dont have this problem as my monitor is so ancient its just a handy excuse to upgrade it to something with modern connectors and use hdmi meanwhile
Not mine just thought it looked good

Interesting stuff from Raja on Vega not being optimised for gaming yet. Says there will be a proper consumer Vega optimised in the future. Supposedly down to the infinity Fabric.

Actually, he's referring to infinity fabric on VEGA, somehow this is being pass around as the entire VEGA.

Sounds bloody confusing to me. Dont have one brand name for professional and consumer products even if its the same chip underneath.
I presume I dont want HBCC on for most games, I have 16gb but dont think it'll help. Fast ddr4 memory actually but I have a no fun xeon locking it to a low speed

From the guide posted, it actually goes upto 300 which is useful in Csgo as thats the general game limit an often wanted maximum. I'm using the game profiles as that will actually save me time as steam cloud never sticks properly/fully for me

they have new software in the works, when it will land who knows but here is a sample of what to expect from it, my guess is that the next big driver update for vega will be attached with the release of this
Nice, sample source?

I need HELP guys. I got the RX Vega 64 AC. Driver 17.8.1, a Ryzen [email protected] and 16GB running at 2933mhz. When I open a game the video card stutters every now and then for a second or two. Also, when it stutters, I can hear a stuttering sound inside the case. I can't identify where is it coming from. It happens in Balanced, Turbo or custom. Doesn't matter the power limit %. The whine starts as soon as I open a game. The GPU temp is below 60c while playing RL, so is the HBM Temps. The switch on the card is on the left side, towards the back of the case. Game goes from 144fps to 90fps stuttering and then back up. It happens in Rocket League, PUBG or any other.

OpenGL setting wouldn't change anything, the Game runs on DirectX 11. I expect the changing AA is what has really made the difference you seeing.

Using HWINFO64?

You want it on, it improves benchmark scores and adds a small boost in some games. No reason to not have it on as there are no ill effects from enabling it. Just set it to the minimum amount allowed.

Some BF1 performance testing at max settings 3440x1440.

@Kaapstad please pop me on TROH when you get a moment. I posted a link to a pic earlier. It didn't display inline but I still have no edit option.

Well after some extensive testing, I can say that 1 of my Vega's is not right.
It will black screen/reset if I run it any higher than 17% power limit on stock clocks. It wont even run stock turbo mode without black screens. It will do balanced ok but not turbo. Looks like i'll have to RMA this one. I hope the other one has better luck , have not tested at all yet.
When are the AIB cards going to be released, might do better to wait for one of those!
Last time I had a reference 290x with an OCuk fitted aftermarket cooler. That had to be sent back aswell. oh well. sigh.

StarTech one was £25 from the rainforest.

Disable VRM voltage monitoring in HWINFO< + update to the latest build to resolve stuttering.

Appreciate that
.I was hoping source perhaps had more info to read on how features which currently VEGA is not running will effect performance.
I wonder when these will come and what effect on performance there will be.
Seems like more of a waiting game with VEGA still.
I was experiencing crashes with my replacement LC 64 card once I updated to 17.8.2, rolling back to 17.8.1 resolved it. Per a recommendation on another forum I upped p6 and p7 by 50mv on 17.8.2 and was stable for the 5 or so hours I tested last night. I'll do some more testing over the weekend to see if I need the full 50mv but thought I'd share my experience for those in a similar situation.
