That's for partner GPUs, not reference.

Reference is FE only

Feels bad.

what will the resale of my msi 390x be like after vega hits? I want to sell it for 2 vegas and a better monitor

>>61332315
XTX or GTFO.

huh, leaks incoming? this is weird move
either they are ready to fill that sandbag with lead
or this is current intel marketing retardation levels

>>61332424
AiO seriously screams "avoid avoid" at me

>>61332439
Enjoy your inferior cooling performance.

Partners get final bios August 2, no way will a nonhousefire card release any less than a week or two after that

such a shame it's high wattage. I was designing my next system to be a power sipper because my room is a finicky bitch temperature wise. guess I will forego freesync and get whatever 1080 revision nvidia comes out with.

>>61332910
Enjoy your leaking AiO and pump noise.

>>61333060
1080 goes up to 80C normal operation fyi
power draw is not always equals temperature

how else will i run my games if vega turns out to be shit\

Oh are you referring to the foundry edition?

Friendly reminder:
There's no need in another MAD Accordion because 1050 Ti exists.

>>61333334
so do all AMD cards, point is mute

>>61332910
AiO is on par with air. You a faggot.

>>61333516
Not if they are drawing 400 watts
480s were pretty caliente unless you ran your fans over 2000 rpm

>>61333576
AiBs? no, look at 580 that draws much more than 480 and stays ~70

>>61333590
No they don't

>>61333621
anon, can you read your own graph? it goes above 70C only at 1600mhz+
stock clock for Nitro LE is 1450.

>>61333696
>The most we were able to get out of Sapphire's golden sample was 1475 MHz. That's not much of an increase, and the subsequent pull-backs brought the average down to 1450 MHz. In short, manual overclocking is almost completely pointless. And we don't have anything nicer to say about our efforts with the memory.
Still, we observed temperatures between 74 to 76°C on our open bench table and closed case, and those are solid figures.

>>61333696
are you retarded?

No, it's not. They're launching at SIGGRAPH and it's not a paper launch. https://videocardz.com/70663/amd-confirms-radeon-rx-vega-is-launching-at-siggraph

here is a Vega tour for some weird reason
>>61332428

is it first time company ever done that? this is so weird

>>61331829
>Launch delayed by almost 9 months
>Absolute radio silence regarding its performance until FE launch

Vega is a turd. If it weren't, AMD wouldn't be acting like this.

Vega looks like an abomination. I would have considered it if it had SR-IOV. Guess I'll be keeping the 970 and dualbooting for a while.

>>61342093
You sure it doesn't have that? From what I can see, it was added to Linux driver patches.

>>61331829
if i walk on microcenter at august 1st, would i be able to walk out with an rx vega xt?

>>61342162
Assuming miners didn't beat you to it.

Don't make me search for it. I would even buy the FE.

i'm a little bit impatient honestly i just got a 1080 for 500 bucks but vega might be a better deal after all

>>61342705
you know who you sound like?
>communism had nothing to do with million starving!!!
now please lecture me about how a capitalist country with a mixed-market-economy like the united kingdom isn't really capitalist.

So, does it have it or not? Isn't this just for the Pro cards?

>>61343014
Because when the government pays for something then capitalism isn't the problem? The state was negligent. Why is an economic system at fault?

>>61342635
What is Lyra2RE?

>>61343477
are you implying capitalism can exist without a state? capitalism needs a state to function, corporate power will always tell the state how to behave, and grenfell tower fires will keep happening.

>>61343607
So a corporation told the state to neglect grenfell towers? And communism/socialism are the solution to this? So the solution for the state's fuck-up is to expand the state's power?

>>61343557
>Lyra2RE
Better than most algorithms for HBM but still absolutely terrible
HBM has too much latency

>>61343010
>100 extra watts
>5% more performance
>vega gonna be around 450
Yeah no it's not a better deal at all
A 1080 for 500 is a great deal

>>61342635
This meme is dumb, people are using Fury's and Fury X's to mine and will use Vega as well.

>>61343869
It's not a meme
HBM has incredibly high latency, it is terrible at mining compared to cheaper options

>>61343630
>And communism/socialism are the solution to this?
how did you come to even think i imply this? remember who i compared you to in my first comment?
my god you are so dense. i won't bother explaining your other question since it appears to pointless.

>>61343940
The fact that you can sell a Fury X for $500 means that you can scream" HBM is bad for mining" all you want and it doesn't matter. Vega is going to be sold primarily to miners, that's a fact. The people who constantly say "miners won't buy Vega" are deluding themselves. Unless you can pick one up day one, no one ITT is using Vega until next year at least.

>>61344211
HBM is terrible at mining
There is no changing that
Nothing you say will ever change that statement

You're completely wrong, get over it

>still not /w4n/

>>61344426
And again, it doesn't matter. If Fury and Fury X are good enough ofr miners, then Vega will be good enough as well. No one in this thread is getting a Vega until the mining boom is over unless you get lucky and preorder in time, you're deluding yourself if you think otherwise. People here kept saying Nvidia was shit for mining yet 1070's were selling for $700 USD.

Still waiting for Ryzen laptops.

>>61344505
the 1070 is better at mining than the fury x
first the best cards sold out, 580s 480s 470s etc
then 1070s and 1060s
The reason why they flew off the shelves so quickly were because they were good at mining and cheap
Vega is neither of these things, it has high latency HBM2 and is more expensive as well as power hungry
The only reason why miners would buy vega is because everything else is sold out

>>61344675
>The only reason why miners would buy vega is because everything else is sold out
Guess what? Everything is still sold out.

Sold out again by the time Vega RX launches.

4D sandbagging, or actual shit? Can't wait.

>>61344890
Bitcoin and etherium crashed bud
Ebay is getting flooded with cards

>>61344890
Here in Aus there are a few rx 580 and 570 models that are in stock and have been for a few days now. It has been more than a month since that happened.

I think the demand from miners is dying and the gamers don't look to be buying at the inflated prices so they are just sitting there now.

>>61344915
I just checked and even used RX 480's are still going for $300 at the cheapest.

>>61344967
Because they're scarce? They were $700 a few weeks ago. The prices have plumeted.

Should I buy whatever you're all waiting for or the FE

I want to buy the more expensive card but blue looks good in my case...

>>61346668
>buying reference AMD

Why the fuck can't AMD have AIB partner cards out at the same time like Nvidia do? Maybe call the AMD variant the FE....no wait...

>>61347702
No they have to call it RX xXvegaXx XLX XTX XL XX

>>61347702
>Founder's goy was even more expensive when it came out
>AIB cards came after
Is there even a 1060 FE? I think those came out with AIB cards straight up.

>>61347908
>founders goy
>frontier edition is 500 dollars more

>>61347702
If they release Vega with a nice AIO cooling solution like they did Fury X, nobody will need AIB cards.

>>61348342
>fury x
>nice cooling solution
>loud pumps that failed easily
I hope AMD gives us an option on this, my fury x pump was annoying as hell and so was my friends

AMD GPUs have been pretty pathetic, lets hope Vega changes it

it comes down to cooling solution

sure, if you keep soc open air it will be ~one to one
but it doesn't matter at all if cooling lowers it to under 75C

can someone explain to me the heck is this vega tour?
what does it even achieve?
there will be leaks all over, and if they are not honest it's going to bomb reputation of vega even more
why?

>>61333108
>enjoy your hurr durr le leaking xD
I've had my fury x for 2 years now, no leaking and it doesn't sound much different from 3 aftermarket fans

>>61349670
Modular. Stack them however you want and it's 73mm

>was hoping vega would be at least somewhere close to a 1080 ti in performance
>was hoping to switch to vega from my fury x
>turns out vega is barely faster than a 1080

all I wanted was a faster (than fury x) AMD card so that gaming on 4k is smoother, but if it's not that much faster & costs a lot then I'll have to skip & wait for navi/whatever next gen AMD gpu comes out

feels bad man
