The editors didn't like
Too noisy
Not power-efficient
Rivals offer better value
Needs better cooling
Frustratingly loud
Wattage thirsty
High power consumption
Cooling not handled as well as Vega Frontier Edition
Top-billed features await future developer support
Higher energy draw than Nvidia Pascal
High power draw
Just slightly quicker than GTX 1080
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

Vega 64 is slightly slower than the GTX 1080, while the liquid cooled version wins more than it loses against the GTX 1080
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)

Given the slightly underhanded way in which AMD launched the Vega at one price point so that the launch reviews were written under the misapprehension that the card was £449 when it's actually £549, we won't do our usual thing of not really taking the pri...

Bringing this review to a close, if it feels like Vega has been a long time coming, it's not just your imagination. AMD first unveiled the Vega name 17 months ago, and it was 7 months ago when we got our first peek into the Vega architecture. So today's l...

Abstract: Today is the day AMD's Radeon Technologies Group has been working towards for a long time. The official launch of the Radeon RX Vega is here, and it's now time for AMD RTG's moment in the spotlight. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD ) has been on a tear...
Our conclusion may sound harsh upon first glance, but we urge you to think about the points we are making. The point is not forgotten on us that at least AMD is once again offering a high-performance video card that can compete with the competition in the...

Before we issue a verdict on the RX Vega 56 and RX Vega 64, it's time once again to sum up our results in our famous value scatter plots. To produce these charts, we take the geometric mean of the average FPS figures for each game we tested. We also conv...

Sadly today we do not have a full review for AMD's RX Vega 64, so what we can say here is rather limited. What AMD has delivered here is a very interesting GPU, coming with a premium design aesthetic but also with a more affordable "Reference" variant for...

Vega is new, Half empty PCB has space for another GPU
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
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 o...
Let's call the Radeon RX Vega 56 and 64 the GeForce GTX 1080 sandwich: ) As confusing as it was to wait on Vega, we had to admit, we're happy that it finally arrived. Let's call it fashionably late. Unfortunately, the product I really wanted to show you w...
Competitive with an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080, Radeon Packs may add sweetener for some potential buyers
High TDP and power requirements versus competing Nvidia cards, Lags behind the GTX 1080 on some titles, especially at resolutions below 4K
On pure performance, AMD's Radeon RX Vega 64 trades blows with Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1080, and it's priced in line with that card. But, in this slice of the video-card market, power requirements and TDP ratings lean heavily in Nvidia's favor. Read More...
