Anyone here with an RX Vega and HTC Vive or Oculus want to fire up Nvidia VCAT VR or SteamVR performance tool? Regards, Taylor Ratliff aka TaylorR137

We all know that there has been greater demand for AMD RX Vega 64 than there has been supply for. There is not arguing that. Speculating on why can lead you in a few different directions. However, Digitimes is reporting that the supply issue is due to low packaging yield rates, according to...

Kumquat Research has written an excellent summary of what's been going on with Vega pricing. AMD has been under some scrutiny since the Vega launch about it's pricing, sparked by a rumor that the launch prices were introductory only, and the price was to go up by $100 after the initial launch...

AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Video Card Review - We put the new AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 to the test in eleven games mixed among DX11, DX12, and Vulkan to find out what it can deliver. We pit it against the competition's GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070, and in the end, find the strengths and weaknesses of...

In a post on ChipHell we are seeing some up close pictures of Sapphire's Vega 64 Liquid Edition. It is really a great looking card. Shame if I get my hands one one it won't be the Liquid since I run a custom loop. I also received an email from Sapphire today that says Vega will be available to...

The official RX Vega reveal is tomorrow, and a page on the Eurasian Economic Commission (translation required) confirms Vega 10, Vega 11, Vega 12 and Vega 20, with showing some OEM cards for Dell, the Frontier Edition, as well as Vega 20 part numbers with 32GB of RAM. The part number for the...

Blind Test - RX Vega FreeSync vs. GTX 1080 TI G-Sync - Totally unscientific and subjective testing is scorned by many, so if that gets your panties in a bunch, I suggest you stop reading. We had the opportunity to preview AMD's RX Vega this weekend, and we put it up against NVIDIA's GTX 1080...

PCPer's Rowdy Ryan Shrout is back at it again this week with AMD's Vega Frontier Edition video card. This time he has put the liquid cooled version to the test. Do things end up any better this time than they did last time with the air cooled edition? Which leads to the real question: what...

PC Perspective article here.

AMD's Vega Frontier Edition shown off to PC World with gaming demo at the end at 1440p (no frame rates shown), which should not show you any real world gaming differences from Team Green, and that is exactly what Gordon had to say. Even though AMD has pushed Vega off a month from its original...

The guys over at Exxact Corp. out in California are chomping at the bit to sell some Radeon Vega Frontier Edition AI and workstation cards. Exxact has a nice Radeon Vega introduction page, as well as specification pages for the air cooled and water cooled Radeon Vega Frontier Editions...

AMD has not shared a die shot of it upcoming Vega GPU. You can see the 8 blocks that each hold 8 Next Generation Compute Units which each have 64 stream processors. This gives us a total of 4,096 32-bit floating point units. The blocks you see on bottom are two HMB2 stacks. No comment on die...

Spitballing Vega GPU Performance This is an interesting article over at Tech Report that is "speculating" on AMD's new Vega GPU and its performance. Now keep in mind that Scott Wasson, the owner of Tech Report, works for AMD. So if I am going to jump on the rumor train with any site, it is...

Be a wo/man! Tell your [H]fellow what is your wisdom on Vega. Then be judged on release, as choices are public. Sorry, but I love polls!

Ok, so here is my situation. I jumped on a deal for an RX 480 4GB that was 145AR and came with Doom that I plan to sell for another 15-20$, meaning I got an RX 480 dirt cheap. It just so happened the Rift dropped $200 a day later. I ordered the RIft and LOVE IT, as do my kids. After doing...

Toyota has a new commercial where it's new C-HR crossover vehicle gets revenge for all of the beatings that the bonus stage car took since 1991. If you grew up and bled Street Fighter II in the arcades, then you know how much of a beating that bonus stage car took over the years! I even had a...

Even though AMD will not allow HardOCP at its tech events anymore, we will still try our best to give you the scoop here on the news page. TechARP has a video interview with Jeffrey Cheng, the AMD "Memory Architecture Person." In the meantime, we have more details on AMD Vega from our coverage...

A few months back I started getting excited about Zen and Vega so I wanted to try something I've never done before. I began working on an ITX SFF case that would house a dGPU as well while keeping the volume as small as possible. I began this project without knowing about the Sentry case, but...

Lisa Su just confirmed Vega for "2017." However she did not give any more of a target than that like she did for Zen Summit Ridge desktop in Q1'17 and server for Q2'17. This would leave me guessing that Vega might have been pushed out to 2H17, or it is in a state of flux as to when it will...

With the SSG release today, is this what Navi will bring to dGPU? http://semiaccurate.com/2016/07/25/amd-puts-massive-ssds-gpus-calls-ssg/ To me, this seems to be the most likely as we have heard nothing else about a next gen memory from AMD side. SSG brings huge scalability and 'next gen'...
