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

Abstract: After what seemed like an age of waiting and unrelenting hype, the AMD Vega GPUs have arrived. And, in a bit of a silicon contradiction, they've managed to be simultaneously disappointing and completely sell out.Want to know what the best GPU is right now...

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...
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...

A compelling option for 1440P gamers, Gives Nvidia competition against its GTX 1070 and GTX 1080 cards, Expands the GPU options available to FreeSync gamers with 1440P and 4K monitors, Looks to have good overclocking headroom if you don't mind the power d
Very power hungry in its performance-biased ‘Turbo' power mode, Needs dual 8-pin connectors which require beefier PSUs and may limit SFF usability, Reference cooler is loud with sub-par cooling and is somewhat overstretched by its task on this GPU, Therma
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...
Solid gaming performance, Excellent memory bandwidth, Great suite of software features, FreeSync compatible monitors are affordable
High power draw, Just slightly quicker than GTX 1080
Our ScoreAMD Radeon RX Vega 56$399.00 from AMDYes, for both models – with the RX Vega 56 taking an edge in terms of value. At $400, it's still expensive by the standards of most gamers (you could buy a PS4 Pro for as much), but it delivers top-tier perfor...

The AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 is a tough card to recommend you buy. at least it is right now. And probably will continue to be so in this AMD-designed air-cooled guise too. It's a card that would've been great if it was released a year ago and may still be...
Vega is here, finally, Performance generally similar to GeForce GTX 1080, Future-looking feature set could yield additional performance, FreeSync cost advantage
High power consumption, Cooling not handled as well as Vega Frontier Edition, Top-billed features await future developer support
After many months of building anticipation, AMD is ready to show off Radeon RX Vega 64, and it's. alright. Great 1440p performance and respectable 4K frame rates largely mirror Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1080 at a similar price point. AMD is leaning hard on it...
