I'm surprised, as a long time Nvidia customer, you seem to have forgotten this company's past. They have had a long and storied history of countless devious tactics, designed to drive their competition out of business. It goes back to the 90s. This is how they have succeeded, and they will not...

More like 1.8x-2x performance. https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASRock/RX_580_Phantom_Gaming_X/31.html Also, even less for mining, which is why those 580s were hotly desired. That said, I do agree that 580s should be sub-$200 products, and 570 should be $150. 1050 Ti should be $120 at...

1080 Ti is a far superior card to Vega 64 LC - there's no doubt about that. But that's comparing Gsync vs Freesync. If you have Freesync monitor, honestly Vega 64 is going to get you the best experience in most cases. I won't say you should make this switch if you have a 1080 Ti already, though...

You are right, of course. Can't argue with historical facts. However, to be fair, it's just a very loud minority of misogynist, supremacist gamers. I'm pretty sure most normal gamers would be delighted to see inclusion and diversity in games.

Well done, Kyle. You won.

I've been using the 600Q for 3 years now, and it's pretty much my kind of case. Minimalist design, no RGB or gamer style stuff, focused on silence etc. Also, design doesn't hamper ventilation - there's enough clearance in the front. Now, I'm kinda bored of it and looking for a change. Also...

Afterburner doesn't work for me either; same issues like I mentioned earlier.

Looks like Trixx 6.5 has been pulled? There was some instability with that, sure, but it was the only utility that worked for me.

Using Vega 56 at 4K as well. It's going to depend on how well a game is optimized, but I've found running at 3456x1944 (using CRU) is a pretty good compromise. Leads to a healthy boost in FPS (guessing some bottleneck there) for an unnoticeable loss in IQ. Again, it depends on the game, some...

Sapphire Vega 56 here. FreeSync is definitely working for me on the LG 4K monitor with 40-60 fps range.

FreeSync is working fine for me with 17.9.3.

That's very impresive, but are you measuring power off the wall or going by GPU-only power draw? That HBM bump seems to get very power hungry.

Yes, and that's why we're calling for HBM voltage control in Trixx. Currently the only way to do that seems to be BIOS flash.

Happy to report that my undervolting finally works fine with TRIXX 6.5 :) Stable at -175 right now. Yes, would love to see HBM voltage control in the future. But for now, this seems like the most reliable utility for Vega.

Yup, performance BIOS. In fact, I tried flashing both V64 Performance and Power Saving BIOS. Though if I'm not mistaken, you can undervolt on the power saving BIOS too. Either way, I've tried both. At this point, it seems like I've tried everything :) I doubt it's a hardware defect, as...

No matter what voltage I input, 800, 900, 1000, 1050, 1150, 1200; it does it's own thing. I'm best off leaving it at Auto. So, in effect, I'm unable to undervolt or select my voltage. That is exactly my problem, that I'm not able to change voltage.

This is what I did. Flashed the V64 BIOS, DDU in Safe Mode. Installed 17.9.2. The BIOS works, but exactly the same issue persists. I even tried two different V64 BIOSes, same story. In fact, I don't even need to change the voltage. Just flipping the voltage adjustment switch from "manual" to...

Interesting. I might give the BIOS flashing a shot.

I will take the crashing! That means the undervolt is working. For me, it almost behaves like an overvolt+underclock.

I have tried this, but I'm seeing a massive increase in power usage up to the 50% PT, and the performance is still below what it would be at standard voltage. In short, leaving clocks and volts at default and PT +50% leads to much better performance than undervolting and/or overclocking at PT...

Thing is, even if I make P6 close to P7, it seems to go back all the way down to something else. Thanks, I'll try tinkering a bit more, but honestly this cooler is pretty much on the edge even at 0% PT. At 25% it's too loud for my liking.

I have Sapphire Vega 56. Pretty sure undervolting is broken for me. Tried on 17.9.1 and now 17.9.2 also. Not messing with power target. On stock, the average frequency in game is around ~1250 MHz. But adjusting voltage in any way leads to this dropping to ~1100 MHz and HBM to 700 MHz. It's...

Tried with BIOS 0609, which is supposed to be for "increased memory stability". Still stuck at 2400 MHz. I guess we have to wait for the BIOS which comes with AGESA 1005.

Thanks, kinda glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue. I guess I'll wait for the next BIOS. After doing a bit of research, it seems AGESA 1004 reduces latencies by a lot, but it breaks some of the RAM compatibility done by mobo vendors earlier. But the fix for memory OC to go with low...

Same combo. I had Kingston HyperX RAM (it's in the QVL list) working fine at 3200 MHz. However, after the update to 0606, memory overclocking is simply broken. It only works in Auto, stuck at 2400 MHz. Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas?
