Vega Rumors

that hurts my eyes lol.

but that puts Vega 56 right around the 1070. And as res goes up Vega 56 gets a small lead, something to be expected, the Tflop differences should give the 56 an advantage at higher reses.
 
Considering this is a rumor thread here is one to wet the appetite.

Well someone likes to make fake graphics, can't overclock an air Vega 64 without changing out coolers and even then its going to be difficult in a 2 slot solution.

That is the worse graph i've ever seen. What games? Im calling BS on that one lol

Supposedly it is an aggregate. So no idea what games or how many are tested. I in no way can or would even bother to verify if it was true. That being said we can surmise these may be close to correct and that still leaves us with a completely unexciting product launch.

Supposedly according to who? It's a graph with zero reference, just more fake shit to see who is dumb enough to repost it.

The over clocking makes it seem like it is fake. The amount of gains it is getting by percentage seems highly unrealistic.

Another rumor site i saw it on. This is a rumor thread so i posted it here in a rumor thread. It is a rumor and like all rumors you can either let it build up fanboy hope in your heart or just assume it is fake till proven otherwise.
 
Yes, I have come to troll you'll! Muhahaha! Get out your magnifying glasses, bifocals, microscopes, and hell even a telescope to digest these numbers!

Enhanced images... Looks like 1070 performance for the Vega 56. Nothing special, just matching Nvidia performance and price from 16 months ago at higher power consumption.

Now the real slaughter will begin for Vega 64 tomorrow, there is a reason techspot/hardwareunboxed only recieved Vega 56, they test 25+ games, and the more you expand your results, the more miserable Vega 64 becomes.

What I am curious about is why people got what they did. Respectable you-tubers got air-cooled 64 but AdoredTV got the Liquid cooled. Some got only Vega 56.

41MH/s is pretty damn good

not good enough with 300 watts. I can get 2 1070s for 100 bucks more that will give 20% more hashrates or 2 580s that give 10% more hashrates at 100 bucks less. The 2 1070's will use less power too 30% less and the rx 580s will too about 20% less.

Can't modify the clocks of the HBM 2 much either on Vega, so that really hurts it that means modifying for more efficiency like we do with the 580's or the 1070s not going to happen.

So it makes no sense for miners to buy these cards right now.

Uh.. Not exactly. If I want numbers and want them quick i'll watch a short video showing various games with Mins/Max/Avgs showing while being compared against other cards. BUT, if I want an in depth technical review i'll read PCPER and AnandTech.

Looking at charts is faster than skimming through a video, based on my experience.
 
Oh so bad. I thought for sure Vega 56 would have a clear, albeit small, lead over GTX 1070. But if that graph is translated correctly.... this is overwhelmingly bad. Vega 64 will be 10+% slower than 1080 on average (except for DOOM and maybe one or two other games), and Vega 56 will be neck and neck with the 1070. WOW. So, so bad.

Time to dump your 500w power supplies. A Korean website put their Vega review online.

Looking at results, trading blows with 1080, OC 1080 will put it on par or above with Vega liquid in most cases. But boy that power consumption is no joke....

Edit: Looks like running games on DX 11 will most likely put the 1080 above Vega Liquid.
 
I'm not impressed. :/ I suppose I'll still go pick mine up in a few hours, play with it, wait for new drivers, and then decide. Can always sell it to the miners for a profit if I don't like it.

it hashes no better than FE been confirmed. Rumors were untrue and likely made up to drive up the initial sales. No miners will get it for that power consumption.
 
If those benchmarks are real, it's a little disappointing but not all that unexpected. Seems to trade blows with 1080 is some games, but it's getting beaten pretty bad in others.

Though I'm already kind of committed to keeping this rig AMD, so I will buy regardless.
