How much will top end gaming Vega perform relative to Pascal?
When will gaming Vega be released?
Straw Poll Time

1080 > big vega > 1080ti
September

Hopefully fucking never.
And I hope AMD never ever releases GPUs for the gamer crowd and only releases datacenter/enterprise/professional cards.
Mason Mitchell
But their cards suck and are housefires now, they should only buid APU and CPU
Chase Peterson
JUST
Benjamin Hill
13:00 "Frontier edition .. will ship towards the later half of June"
13:10 "You will see the enthusiast gaming platform ... very soon thereafter"
13:18 "We will be launching Vega across all the market segments over the next couple of weeks"
Dylan Peterson
what's she mean by this?
Bentley Morris
So instinct and Frontier Edition are different?
What's the difference? Really confusing.
Noah Carter
Vega will be the Pascal of the 4k gaming
Liam Hughes
Instinct cards don't have video outputs, they're accelerators like Tesla.
Frontier edition are more akin to Quadros, there's probably more differences but that's the gist of it.
Instinct - HPC
FE - Workstation/enterprise

>we'll just wait for 6c/12t coffeelake to make sure nobody will build amd system
Camden Lopez
Coffee Lake S will suck just as hard for 1080p 144hz gaming as Ryzen does. It's going to be like 12% higher single core at best even after OC.
Michael Howard
>3.5GHz base clock Intel 6 core at 95W
>something to worry about
Lmao
Mason Adams
4c intel already destroying ryzen in many game, sure 6c will perform worse than that.
Michael Collins
>he thinks intel 6 cores will clock/OC the same as their 4 cores
Hunter Wood
It doesn't even need that. Downclocked to 4ghz i7 still outperfrom Ryzen with same clocks. Intel just works better.
Angel Morris
Oh no, not 5% higher IPC. For twice the price, too. AMD is doomed now.
Lincoln Harris

Options are ass.
It's likely to be better than the 1080Ti at 4K, especially in newer games (screen space shader heavy), but worse at 1080p at least on older games(more ROP reliant).
Jason Torres
Bro .. it says top end gaming, not piddling around with old games in 1080p gaming.
Ryder Bell
The 4k is better on amd is over, look the 480/1060
Daniel Watson
>7% difference at 1080p
>gap closes to 4% at 4K
>old ass benchmarks before driver updates
Are you actually so retarded that you post a picture that disproves what you're saying?
Jayden Torres
I'm just hoping for something around $400 that outperforms a 1070, I have a freesync monitor but a 580 isn't quite cutting it
Kayden Morgan
>Downclocked to 4ghz i7 still outperfrom Ryzen with same clocks
Not sure if bait or...

>gap closes to 4% at 4K
yes, the pacal is faster @4k
Ian Moore
Why are they still using the 4xx series if the 5xx series was out when they made that benchmark?
Oh .. right.
Elijah Lewis
Wait for it
Jace Sanchez
>AMD
Not even once.
Carter Reed
Not him but the 480 and the 580 are not the same card?
Jose White
The 5xx replaces 4xx at the exact same price point.
Nathan Jones
>worse at 1080p at least on older games(more ROP reliant).
do you realize that modern GPUs are virtually never ROP limited and that other fixed function units are far more likely culprits, namely geometry and rasterization setup?
Even Fiji's 64 Gpix/s is like 7700 colored pixels per second for each pixel on a UHD display, -plus- another 31k depth/stencil tested pixels.
Asher Mitchell
Yeah well...they should use a overclocked 1060 vs the 580 because the 480 is a OC 580...
Isaac Martinez
I voted 1070. feels good to be a realist
Eli Richardson
You're just stupid, stemming from your inadequate knowledge of hardware, not a realist.
Caleb Lopez
I keep hearing this shit and it's not true, they definitely made some process optimizations there. There's reviewers stating they got better OC out of the 580 on air than they could even get out of the 480 on water. youtu.be
I also see that crap about how some idiot flashed a 580 BIOS to a 480 and it worked. Well, no shit it did. It's just like putting an OC on a 480, but that doesn't mean it would be guaranteed stable, and it doesn't mean it would OC to 580 OC levels.
Josiah Johnson
>higher power consumption than 480
>process optimizations
It's the same GPU
Parker Bennett
ya and a 1070 is just a 980 rebranded
xddd shitposting is so easy
Wyatt Moore
The new process uses less power per watt.
The 4C variant will clock higher than the 7700K at less power.
4ghz 8MB 4C/8T for both systems
16-15-15-35 1T is losing to 16-16-16-35 2T despite 1T often enough to offset 200mhz memory OC.
wccftech.com
Doubling the cores to 8 barely gets more fps than 4C at 5ghz ( despite better memory OC )
Ryan Morgan
...
Evan Scott
Stop cherrypicking. Most of the benchmarks on that link look like this. Barely any difference. What difference is there is prob. due to Intel specific optimizations.
Adam Reed
>The new process uses less power per watt.
And the result of that last time was Skylake to Kabylake, which was basically fucking nothing. 14nm++ is not some miracle cure.
>The 4C variant will clock higher than the 7700K at less power.
Why are you still trying to compare top tier binned Xeons to a consumer i7? You do know what binning is, don't you? (Obviously you don't).
