The editors liked
Vega 64 is slightly slower than the GTX 1080
While the liquid cooled version wins more than it loses against the GTX 1080
Vega is new
Half empty PCB has space for another GPU
Competitive with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080
Radeon Packs may add sweetener for some potential buyers
Competitive with Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080

The editors didn't like
Poor availability and thus pricing. AMD's aircooled RX Vega 64 reference card is ~5% slower than the GTX 1080 FE despite being hotter
Louder and using more power (though we have high hopes for custom cards)
Large and power-hungry
Conclusion
Vega is too little (or priced a bit high)
Mediocrity powered by hype
Verdict
Needs Manufacturers to factory OC and apply some shiny spinners or nice WC Option
Otherwise one year old alternatives can be purchased today with better clocks at a sligh
High TDP and power requirements versus competing Nvidia cards

Put it up against the GTX 1080, and the GeForce RTX 2080 crushes its Pascal predecessor. We never expected anything less. Despite its name, though, the RTX 2080 is priced in the same bracket that the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti presently occupies, and that means...

The RTX launch is a mess, but you wanna know a secret? I love it. The 2080 and 2080 Ti are powerful cards. If you want a GPU that can pull off 144hz with mostly high settings, both of these are great options. If you need something to do 4K on high, that 2...

Abstract: Unfortunately, we can't talk about this card just yet, but we can talk about what powers itFirst though, let's take a look at the journey to get here over the past 30 months or so.Unveiled in early 2016, Pascal marked by the launch of the GTX 1070 and...
And with that, we wrap-up our look at the performance of three applications we've never tackled much before. An exception would be with Blender, since we have used the tool for CPU benchmarking for awhile, but now that we know it's so perfectly-suited as...

Abstract: Today we can finally reveal the Linux performance details for the AMD Radeon VII graphics card... Especially if you are an open-source driver fan, it's quite a treat thanks to having fully open-source and fairly mature driver support, but can this $699 USD graphics card dance with the likes of the GeForce RTX 2080...
