Watch AMD's CES Keynote Here

David Polefeldt on stage

 

[ManofGod]

Kyle is getting a Radeon VII!

 

[Pieter3dnow]

Hmm. I'll still need to see 3rd party independent reviews and benchamrks, but this new Vega is more impressive than I was expecting.

Until you hear the price

 

[jardows]

Keeping up or beating 2080, not bad.

 

[BaGGy]

DMC5 doesnt look very difficult to render. Its a really bad idea to use an unreleased game to represent the performance capabilities. That is kind of like singing your own song on Americas Got Talent.

 

[Rahh]

Better than 2080 in Farcry5, 1whole FPS.

But costs so much less?

 

[Lakados]

So Radeon VII is basically on par with a 2080 when not using the RTX features ???

 

[Mode13]

Looks like the Vega VII is set to match up against the RTX 2080.

Inb4 masses of internet hate, but if it's priced right I'll be buying.

 

[exlink]

But costs so much less?

They released the price?

 

[Sikkyu]

vega 2 with HBM. only 60 CU though, but running at 1.8 GHZ stock. interesting.

 

[zrikz]

 

[alxlwson]

Possible March. They dropped date on DMC5 and the hardware are partners

 

[Chimpee]

Radeon 7 = RTX 2080 = 1080 Ti

Disappointing.

Depending on pricing and availability, may not be a bad thing. But in all seriousness, were a lot of us waiting for AMD to compete the very top end?

 

[thenapalm]

when?

March 8 was mentioned, but that might for DMC5 and not the card.

 

[mbelue]

David Polfeldt from Ubisoft, Division 2 graphics.

.... on importance of hardware partnerships....

 

[trick_m0nkey]

Looks like it's going to be in between a 1080ti and a 2080ti.

That's going to be my guess.

 

[Mega6]

On par with a 2080. Thats a good place to be if the numbers are right.

Yep - Price will be everything from here on out.

[Derangel]

The numbers for the card look good, but the real question is going to be price. If they can significantly undercut the 2080 it could be a game changer. However, if they go for price-parity or try to charge more than the 2080 then this thing might be dead in the water.

 

[ManofGod]

Holy shit
16 GB of vRAM
1+ TB memory throughput

Well, it will not be cheap but I bet it will be less expensive than a 2070.

 

[jpcahn1]

My 1080ti Gaming X is going up for sale if Vega VII comes in under 700.00.

 

[Pieter3dnow]

Depending on pricing and availability, may not be a bad thing. But in all seriousness, were a lot of us waiting for AMD to compete the very top end?

Nope still hope that Navi is going to get announced as well.

Game footage od Division 2 4K ULTRA on RVII

 

[exlink]

Depending on pricing and availability, may not be a bad thing. But in all seriousness, were a lot of us waiting for AMD to compete the very top end?

I was hoping they'd be able to handily surpass a card released in March 2017...

 

[blackacidevil]

Hopefully finishes off with Ryzen 3000 series specs...

 

[FrgMstr]

 

[Bigdady92]

No that's not beautiful, it's in 720p...

 

[Zarathustra[H]]

35% over vega64 in BFV is enough for me to be interested. Now if we could get a price

That puts it slightly ahead of the 2080 (not ti) at 4k. Not bad.

 

[SighTurtle]

The keynote is supposed to be a hour. If the schedule was stuck to, then thats it. Hopefully thats not it.

 

[Cipix]

Bah. All these demos they want to show at 720p stream resolution. C'mon MAN.

 

[Gatecrasher3000]

really comes down to price at this point.

 

[ir0nw0lf]

Yay, life signs from Kyle!

 

[alxlwson]

Ryzen lead in

 

[mbelue]

Collaboration, blah, blah , blah DX12 with async compute is important.

"We love it too, we're just having fun." David Polfeldt

 

[jardows]

Hearing a repeating theme from the guests - they like someone who listens to them.

 

[exlink]

My 1080ti Gaming X is going up for sale if Vega VII comes in under 700.00.

Why? You'll end up losing money with little to no performance increase.

 

[AltTabbins]

No that's not beautiful, it's in 720p...

When did they mention the resolution?

 

[Derangel]

Bah. All these demos they want to show at 720p stream resolution. C'mon MAN.

With how clogged the internet gets at events like this 720p is a more reliable option.

 

[sirmonkey1985]

Did she say 25% more performance at the same power?

Vega64 +25% still disappointing, IMHO.

that's not that bad, i mean if i can get vega 64 performance at 25% less power usage i'd buy it day one if the price is good.. i don't need 1080ti or 2080/ti performance.

 

[jnemesh]

I made it as far as the Radeon VII reveal...then couldn't take any more of the fluff. Will wait for the tl;dr version later today.
