AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Video Card Reviewed by HardOCP

Our good friends over at HardOCP have just published a review on the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Video Card. Check out what they had to say about it …

We put the new AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 to the test in eleven games mixed among DX11, DX12, and Vulkan to find out what it can deliver. We pit it against the competition’s GeForce GTX 1080 and GTX 1070, and in the end, find the strengths and weaknesses of the new AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 for PC gaming. Is there value at $499?

Our main issues lie in the fact that NVIDIA has been offering this level of performance for over a year now, while AMD hasn’t. While AMD has caught up to the GeForce GTX 1080, it hasn’t yet caught up to the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, and that is what most were hoping Vega would achieve, but it is nowhere even near the GTX 1080 Ti level of performance. AMD still has a long ways to go to catch up with NVIDIA at the ultra-high end of the product stack. The RX Vega 64 is nowhere near a competitor to the GTX 1080 when it comes to performance per watt. It takes ~150w more for AMD to achieve what NVIDIA can in performance. NVIDIA is way ahead of AMD in this regard.
