>>
>>61027213
>That 300-375W number is in all likelihood coming from the peak loads the board is designed for. Add to that AMD's notorious practice of buffing up voltage to harvest as many dies as possible at high stock clocks adds into the increased power draw by sizable amounts. Initial cards will be just like the RX 480 launch with power consumption improving later on and people finding even more reductions through undervolting. Keep in mind semicon firms have varying methods how they classy their 'TDPs','TBPs' etc. peak consumption of a chip is typically 1.5x of the respective TDP. Well designed boards are done with margins to ensure it can handle more than the typical TDP, this means close to the 1.5X value. So the average you should expect for the claimed 300W is anywhere around ~200-225W and ~250-275W for the 375W SKU. Initially though due to high voltages AMD will inevitably put on the early batches it will cause the averages to be well close to 275-290W.

>>61029243
The thing with Nvidia is even if they do fuck up it never costs them much money. I wouldn't be surprised if the GTX 970 is is the most popular discrete GPU of all time, even with the memory issues. Sure they had to pay $30, but how many people honestly bothered with the rebate? Even if the Shield wasn't super successful, they managed to dump all of their unsold Tegra's on Nintendo and the Switch is now a pretty big success despite being a rebranded Shield. They had their biggest fuckup in the company's history at the start with the Saturn and the NV1, but bounced back and have been unstoppable ever since.
>>
>>61029188
It's not a 8320e, it uses much later cores. Excavator I think, the last generation of the bulldozers. It has much higher performance/watt. and iirc it has much more cores than the RX580.

But, anything can do 4k 60fps as long as it has enough bandwidth to draw that many frames. The only question is what kind of graphics it can push at that resolution. For example my 10 year old PC can run Touhou at 4k 60fps fine.
>>
>>61029350
You forgot NV30.
>>
If RX Vega has the same fps/flop ratio as Tahiti had, that power consumption is more than fucking justified.
That perf/flop ratio would wipe the floor with 1080ti, which is why I think it won't happen even with Vega's massive bottleneck removals

With a TDP of 375w for the Frontier Edition, I did not expect better for the gayning version.
>>
>>61030687
First of all, TBP is not TDP
Secondly, there's two frontier editions from 300-375W
And we've already been shown a 8+6pin card.
>>
>>61030745
So the clock with be lower than the Frontier Edition? Also 300w is a lot, more than Fury X.
>>
>>61030763
No they won't, and TBP/TDP is not power consumption.
>>
>>61030788
>No they won't

How?
>>
>>61030745
>>61030808

I'll let you on a little hint, both 375W and 300W Vega have the same TFLOPs, meaning they have the same clocks.

Think about why that is and think hard what "TDP" means.

Geforce 2 MX

Radeon 4k and 5k cards sold great as well
and right now the 470/480/570/580 is impossible to find due to high demand

I'd be surprised if a high end card like the 970 would ever outsell the mid-range cheap cards.
>>
>>61030919
More heat =~ more power draw

Still faster...
>>
>>61027213
What a flippen disappointed.
Oh well, then 1080 it is
>>
>>61030968
If it has the same clockspeed it's not faster since it's the same chip, you're not making any sense.
If they have the same clockspeed the heat is also the same since it's the exact same chip.


Now I'm pretty sure you're not really versed in this topic, I'll ask you again, why has the 300W and 375W the same clockspeed, same TFLOPs, but a 25% difference in TDP?

There's actually 3 reasons, can you name at least one?
I'll fill in the other two.
I'll also give you a hint, TDP != power consumption

TFLOPs ratings are clockspeed you nitwit, if they're the same the clockspeed is the same.

TDP has nothing do with it, I already said there are 3 reasons why the TDP is 75W higher, you and the one I was arguing with haven't mentioned a single one of those reasons, because you clearly have no clue how any of this works.

Excuse me if you're not the same braindamaged guy from above.
>>
>>61030687
TDP = Thermal Design Power = "Design the card for these maximum specs so that the actual average power requirement is safely suatained for a very long time"

TDP =/= expected power use

Fiji (Fury X) averaged something like 240w
The 290 non-x was still rated for something like 275w but averaged 215-225

Is anyone surprised? Vega FE is rated at 300W with the liquid-cooled version being 375W. I recall Raja, or someone else from RTG, saying consumer RX Vega would have a liquid-cooled version as well. 300W is fair if it beats out a 1080 Ti.

All (((Intel))) had to do is drop the prices to be called a winner. Instead they keep releasing nuclear editions of their already hot CPUs.

Nvidia is another beast. I know it's fun to overhype things you cheer for but let's be honest. AMD didn't beat Intel, Intel beat itself by releasing same CPUs with same performance for last 5 years with the only difference in actual frames being faster memory.

Nvidia on the other hand keeps releasing cards 50% faster than their previous numeric alterations even if they raised prices as a consequence to AMD's inability to compete with them.

I bet Vega will be somewhere between 1080 and 1080 Ti at best being closer to 1080 Ti in Vulkan and DX12 games and closer to 1080 in DX11/Goyworks games.

Then Volta comes over and the cycle repeats itself with AMD not being able to produce new chips while releasing 3 series of slightly faster and hotter rebrands when Nvidia once again gets 2 years ahead of AMD.

If all you do is emulate, then you can get away with half of that. You just need a strong cpu, and some entry level discrete gpu. Hell, a Phenom 2 could probably run everything fine.
