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
Far Cry 5 not only reuses many animations from earlier games in the series, but also the Dunia engine is used again by Ubisoft. This time, however, some compute functions have been added, which is due to their collaboration with AMD for this title. We see...

With some difficulty, we managed to find four games in which adding a second Radeon RX Vega 64 works well. In Battlefield 1, GTA V and Rise of the Tomb Raider, the CrossFire Setup ensures that the game can be played at 4K resolution with the highest possi...

The numbers don't lie. There's an RX Vega out there that offers great performance for the money and brings the fight to the competition, but it's not the flagship product. Vega 56 is the real winner here, offering a compelling alternative not just to the...

Abstract: Aside from all the games published by so-called triple-A studios every now and then there is a game that, despite having a much smaller budget, still gets a lot done. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one such game. The video cards in our test lab are mobilize...

The Radeon RX Vega 64 is a much-needed high-end update from AMD which delivers significant improvements over the previous ‘Fury' cards and finally offers a worthy competitor to Nvidia's GTX 1080. The performance crown still goes to the GTX 1080 Ti.Tags:Co...

Impressive benchmark results, Minute GPU tuning control
Higher energy draw than Nvidia Pascal
For those who have been gripping tightly to their AMD Radeon R9 Fury X cards, the Vega 64 is the upgrade you've been holding out for. It mostly offers Nvidia GTX 1080-equivalient performance at an ever-so-slightly cheaper rate. More importantly, Vega prov...

Radeon RX Vega represents AMD's long-awaited return to the high-end gaming graphics card market. The RX Vega64 air-cooled sample used for our testing shows that AMD has created a solid offering that is likely to appeal to 1440P gamers looking to invest in...
