Benchmarks – Part 1
We would like to thank Futuremark for providing the 3DMark software for use in this testing. I’ll let the numbers do all the talking.
3DMark 11 (DX11)
3DMark 11 is a DirectX 11 video card benchmark test for measuring your PC’s gaming performance. 3DMark 11 makes extensive use of DirectX 11 features including tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading. Trusted by gamers worldwide to give accurate and unbiased results, 3DMark 11 consistently and reliably tests your PC’s DirectX 11 performance under game-like loads.
3DMark v2 – Firestrike (DX11)
Fire Strike is a showcase DirectX 11 benchmark designed for today’s high-performance gaming PCs. It is our most ambitious and technical benchmark ever, featuring real-time graphics rendered with detail and complexity far beyond what is found in other benchmarks and games today.
3DMark v2 – Time Spy (DX12)
3DMark Time Spy is a new DirectX 12 benchmark test for Windows 10 gaming PCs. Time Spy is one of the first DirectX 12 apps to be built “the right way” from the ground up to fully realize the performance gains that the new API offers. With its pure DirectX 12 engine, which supports new API features like asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading, Time Spy is the ideal test for benchmarking the latest graphics cards.

“You can buy the Asus ROG Strix Radeon RX Vega 64 graphics card for around USD $550-580 from various e-tailers.” From where?
Well, I found a different version (Sapphire) on Amazon for USD $560 – http://amzn.to/2zhqq9N
Stock cooler tho 🙁
If you want to overclock the RX Vega… you definitely need a better cooler.
terrible review. Not even an attempt at overclocking cos this card would crash. you can only get good performance from Vega if you water cool it as it’s too hot for ANY air cooler to handle.
My vega56 with a waterblock smashes all the scores on this review by huge margins.
Yeah the card does run HOT … our reviews are published using default setting only.
Yes, the RX Vega 64 does running pretty HOT, that’s why we didn’t overclock it. We don’t overclock VGA cards in our reviews. All our reviews are published at default settings.
There’s also something wrong with that Firestrike graphics score of 26542.
you’d have to be running clock speeds well over 1700 to get that score.
what a biased review, so much nvidia bias. messed up scores using pro nivdia benches, no oc,
…..
Yeah no OC, because it’s not great at overclocking.
Confirmed. This card has OC issues …
Great review!
