• Competitor rules

    Please remember that any mention of competitors, hinting at competitors or offering to provide details of competitors will result in an account suspension. The full rules can be found under the 'Terms and Rules' link in the bottom right corner of your screen. Just don't mention competitors in any way, shape or form and you'll be OK.

Which one of these options sucks the least?

If you're willing to refresh this page once a day eventually a Sapphire Pulse Vega 56 will show up for £180. Mine still had the covers on 3 of it's outputs and looked unused. If you're desperate for extra performance you can add a Vega 64 bios or just use power modding tools, which can hit 2070 levels of performance

Plus the added benefit of an electric heater in the Brexit winter

A definite contender in these uncertain times where many component purchases (mostly graphics cards) 'just feel wrong' for the cost.

This is also an interesting comparison of how close the Vega cards come to the 5700 XT once all cards are undervolted/overclocked and it isn't at all far off assuming he's got all cards running optimally:


And while sending stupid amounts of power into the card might not be a great idea long term, flashing to a Vega 64 Bios, should give you an extra boost that shouldn't harm the card provided you have Samsung memory. You can find this out by using GPU-Z
 
Very persuasive. Also surprised to see the Radeon VII pulling so far ahead of the 5700 XT. As I doubt that monster will even fit in my case (amongst other issues going all-in on a VII), then the Vega 56 shines as the value proposition.
