AMD think we are retarded, the Quadros can gayming, why the vega frontier can't gayming?

Also I hate this crazy TDP, HBM was a mistake.

I think the RX Vega will be 8-12% faster but will never beat the Ti nor the Titan X and Xp. The TDP will not be better.
>>
>>61159307
Either AMD has the best RX drivers coming or it's time to get them on suicide watch. The Fury X is already close to a 1070.

The leaks and info in drivers for greenland (vega 10) appeared at the same time as ellesmere and baffin (polaris 10 and 11). So supposedly it was developed at the same time and was probably supposed to be released at a similar time frame.
But it's basically been delayed for a year.
Wouldn't be surprised if the new features that vega brings basically broke the whole card and they're running with most features turned off.
Honestly with how much they want to focus the attention to RX Vega I think they still believe they can fix this shit with drivers.
Or they're just not talking about FE on purpose because they're attempting to cut their losses and they hope more people will buy it if there's as little bad press as possible.
>>
>>61159775
Literal fiction. That Quadro has the exact same specs as a Titan Xp. There's no chance whatsoever it gets an extra 10fps and more than double the minimums, especially with a driver optimised for non-gaming loads.

The review is bit inconsistent. Why do they only do only benchmark using certain cards? Why so much attention to gaming side of things when the card is meant for professionals? 7 pages of gaming related benchmarks. 1 page for professional related benchmarks.

Here's the nvidia's PX000 series card reviews. Stark difference.

Right.
It matches a 1070 in the other games more or less.
Problem is given this a RXVega can't possibly even HOPE to match a 1080.

And as mentioned, it'll likely perform even worse than this so sub 1070

>>61161411
All depends on how much you believe that the current driver can't leverage any of Vega's new abilities, like tile based rendering, and is merely using fallback options on the hardware.

Remember how big a deal TBR was for Maxwell? Well, those kinds of gains could happen still here if that report is legit and modern Windows PCs are treating Vega FE just like it's an overclocked FuryX.

A lot of shit just doesn't add up right now. This is a big, power hungry, expensive die and AMD is not good at launching products. I don't think this chip would ever have made it to market if this was its ceiling.

This thing was clearly rushed out of the gate to meet a Q2 deadline
>>
>>61161179
>Source: HotHardware

Wow, truly a credible source. I totally believe it! Never mind that it contradicts every other test of the identically-specced Titan Xp. I guess the big news is that Nvidia's workstation drivers are actually better for gaming than their gaming-focused ones, since "HotHardware" has a reputation beyond reproach.

>Looking at these results, it is still possible for Vega to be a success in the consumer gaming market, but it is going to need to be priced accordingly (sub 400$). And we just don’t know what NVIDIA might have sitting in reserve to address Vega and its derivatives this year – refreshed hardware, lower prices, etc.

Says who? This is complete conjecture. If the driver is fucked then there is no telling what the performance gains will be.

The only reason this card exists (all 40 of them that got made) was to placate stockholders or save someone's job somehow.

If that's true, then this is really disappointing. Vega is out of my budget range, so the thing I'm most interested in is seeing AMD's tbdr implementation. That's what I wanted to see explored, since I want to know how that's going to filter down to us pleb tier owners.

See this comparison between the Quadro M6000 and the Maxwell Titan X (incidentally both based on GM200)

I'd be very surprised if we see even 10% improvement in games from the FE to RX Vega

> This arch is a massive change from anything they have released with GCN. They built in fallbacks in the hardware because of the massive changes. Its a protection against poorly written games and helps AMD have a starting point for driver development. Hell even architecturally Vega is essentially Fiji at its most basic thats why it is performing exactly like it because none of its new features are enabled or have a driver published for them yet. _It is performing like a Fury X at 1400 MHz because that is exactly how every computer is treating it._

Hopeful speculation at best. Even that hopefulness shows how AMD suchs at driver resolution at launch date.

More realistically, the card is just that. However drivers will probably improve over time and get ~10-20% boost over years. But thats just the usual shtick. By the time AMD's cards are fully functioning, Nvidia will be 2-3 generations ahead. So its kinda pointless to "wait" till drivers are mature.

>>
>>61161805

No, they do not perform the same if you load the proper drivers for each card.

Workstation cards running proper drivers are slower than gaming cards (~10-30%) because their renderings are focused on accuracy/precision not performance. They also don't have nearly as nearly as many artifacts in the renderings.

That's why graphical studios don't use normal "gaming" cards for their projects.

290x = 390 = RX 480 (performance-wise)

The 280x doesn't really fit into any of AMD's modern GPUs.
Not as powerful as a 470/570, more powerful than a 460/560, and frankly kind of irrelevant at this point.
And I say that as someone who used to own a 280x.

290/x and 390/x are both Hawaii.

The 280/x is Tahiti aka 7970.

>>61163393
That's oversimplifying things. Technically Polaris replaced Tonga from a price and performance standpoint. Tonga from Tahiti was kind of a lateral move. More power efficient and updated GCN but just about as powerful as the former flagship Tahiti.

Nothing has really replaced Hawaii yet since Fiji seems like it was almost experimental at this point.

Driver problems are very probable and I fully expect the Rx Vega to perform better, otherwise there would be no reason for AMD to waste money on this card.

what did they mean by this

>>61167896
There is no way this is real.

It'll be interesting to see what features are actually activated in the driver.
If none of them are actually activated, it may explain the results sometimes being identical to Fury.

>>61161598
There is a difference between driver optimizations and fixing a barely functioning driver to use all available hardware features.

IFF the Vega drivers are actually this fucked, I could see it gaining 30-50% more performance.
If the hardware is actually working properly, the ~10% figure seems likely.
>>
>>61167896
>>61167998
Why wouldn't it be true?
Vega only uses 2 stacks. It has the same bandwidth as the Fury X with 4 stacks HBM1. Had they chosen 4 stacks, it'd be around 1TB/s.

GPUs aren't bandwidth limited as of now.
Why they chose HBM? Who the fuck knows.
>>
>>61168241
According to rumors none. Anons say that this is basically Fiji drivers.
That would explain why it benches like overclocked FuryX. Because without new features it basically is.
>>
>>61168267
It runs slightly modified Fiji drivers. Its okay for compute, but the lack of TBR and Primitive Shaders makes it shit at mixed/graphical workloads.
>>
The Fiji drivers another bulshit

It's normally 5-6 frames behind and surpasses it in shit that fully takes advantage of new APIs like Doom. That's why Doom is in every fucking video demonstration AMD does.

>GPUs aren't bandwidth limited as of now.
They are, though. That's the only reason Fury could even compete. AMD screwed the pooch by not giving Vega a 700+ Gbps bus.

>>61170408
Memory bus width is how much data you can read or write to memory at a time. Multiply it by clock speed to find how much data you can transfer in a second.
>>
>>61170764
shouldn't vega then destroy everything?
>>
>>61170777
>shouldn't vega then destroy everything despite having lower memory bandwidth than the 1080 and functionally the same GPU core as Fury X, which was underpowered two years ago?
No? Why would it?
>>
>>61161805
Literally AMD released a card that didn't even come with complete Vega codepaths. FE was just to show investors that they have something in the works that is paying off, otherwise RTG would be completely laughed off of AMD's R&D budget.

>gaymen
Gaming mode doesn't do anything. It doesn't even surpass the framerate on the original DOOM demonstration.
>le no improvement for RX Vega meme
No game profiles, no TBDR, no HBCC, only primitive shaders are added into the driver, while having a wider RBE, clocking 60% higher than the Fury, a wider pipeline, and segmentable SIMDs (probably also added more scalar ALUs in than original GCN design) in their NCU. You should probably wait to make a conclusion about it's gayming performance bud.
>losing in professional benchmarks
Since the WX7100 is literally so close in SPV12 to Vega FE, it's pretty clear Vega is basically being driven off of raw horsepower as is. SPV12 is also a pretty shitty test overall due to using very old software (fucking Solidworks 2013 and Maya 2013, as well as Creo 2?) and you should use SPECapc which is uses much more recent and well optimized software. RPM should also be interesting.
>300W
It's not clear whether or not Vega does it but at 200W/240W steppings the chip turns off groups of SIMDs. This is all rumor of course.
>>
>>61170458
You can game on quadros just fine. The 1080ti equivalent of a quadro has pretty much the same gaming performance.
>>
>>61170817
B3D dudes are still smashing their heads against the wall trying to guess WHY the fuck Vega uses Fiji's immidiate mode rasterizer.
>>
>>61170817
Raja is hogging the real Vega drivers all to himself. He probably pets them while he sleeps next to it at night.
>>
No Raja and /r/amd told me ite fake news. Everyone who disagrees is /v/editor.
Vega is super special new architecture and requires specailly tailored drivers to game.
>>
>>61170881
Sounds gay.
>>
>>61170886
Stop shitposting.
>>
>>61170886
Yep, screen cap this post the RX Vega will beat the 1080ti by a mile and castrate Nvidia.
>>
>>61170910
see
>>61170458
>>
>>61170919
It depends on their TBDR efficiency and how well Primitive Shaders will bost geometry throughtput.
>>61170925
see
>>61170817
>>
>>61170933
So I expect about 30% more performance than a 1080ti? Sounds good.
>>

We don't know. AMD gave use zero technical data about actual Vega uarch.

Wait for drivers.
>>
>>61172119
Wait for drivers with working TBDR and Primitve Shaders.

Really hope this is just bad because of drivers being unfinished. Disappointing if after all this time it's only able to really compete with the 1070.

Isn't their mistake just hyping up a workstation card for gaymen in the first place?

AMD subreddit is like seeing the fall of Berlin. Everyone is beside themselves, the threads are emptying out, AMDfags are arguing semantics among themselves and blaming each other for Vega being overpriced shit and calling each other secret nvidis shills, suddenly everyone’s an OpenCL developer. Complete denial or acceptance that there’s no way AMD will ever compete in the high end GPU space

It almost feels weird. For the first time in some 8 years (give it or take it) people are eagerly waiting for Radeon.
>>
Damn I'm lucky, bought 1070 before it run out of stock. I thought about waiting for Vega...
AMD cannot compete with Nvidia anymore, they just cannot create a more efficient arch than Maxwell. In order to compete they have to get to 7nm long before nvidia.

Die is bigger than 1080Ti and HBM2 is expensive.
>>
>>61176730
Yes.
Sources are saying between 750 and 850$ for the entry level model
>>
>>61176797
Literally nobody would buy it at that price even if it reaches 1080Ti performance.
>>
>>61176846
No one would buy it anyway, it's fucking Radeon, no one buys Radeon since forever.
>>
>>61176846
Yes.
Hence why it's DOA.
>>
>>61159804
That's the DRAM chip consumption. Most of the power savings come from the memory controller, something anand themselves have detailed before
