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
