That effective bandwidth O_O.

Probably explains the issues Vega has with performing like 1600Mhz Fiji.

nothing strange, it have even less theoric bandwidth than Fiji due the narrower bus.

The point is that Fiji's controller was bad enough to being incapable of using it's theoretical bandwidth.

Vega's controller looks much worse than that.

And that's ridiculous.

What my take on this is when or if they get the drivers optimized properly for this card it should compete quite nicely with the higher end nvidia cards quite nicely. AMD's keeping to their fine wine thing.(but i expect that from them)

Is that test accurate? It did not matter what speed Vega was running at, it looks like it is totally HBM2 limited or some other part of Vega is limiting bandwidth of the memory - Wow!

Color compression is working but does not even remotely come close to what Nvidia is doing. Single texture it is better than Fiji, multiple textures it is worst. Maybe some improvement can be had there.
