This is where we wait for the latest AMD graphics card which AMD will surely release in a timely manner and will definitely blow all of our minds, no questions asked, 100% guaranteed, no chance it'll fail, just you wait.
i have an i3-6100 3.7GHz, 2 cores 4 threads. will buying an rx vega be pointless? will the cpu bottleneck the performance?
Adrian Stewart
Oh yeah, Budapest, so if you're around there, you know the drill from last time: >If you're in Budapest or Portland, go take some videos and leak them here, then leak them to VideoCardz so they can then be leaked here too
Brody White
I wish i could. Anyway CLC one is nicely overprovisioned. I wonder if they are going to demo it with TBR and primitve shaders enabled. Because it's motherfucking time.
Grayson Williams
Cut down Vega for $350 pls Raja
Jace Lee
Maybe Vega11 and maybe Q1 2018.
Bentley Bailey
$299
Ryder Campbell
By which time we'll also have GV102/GV104 right? Seriously AMD need to hurry the fuck up. I want to get into the adaptive sync meme but no way am I paying the G-Sync tax
Kayden Rogers
>adaptive sync >meme
Alexander Stewart
update: i googled and tried this calculator with an nvidia 1080 and it says i will get 23% bottleneck. how bad is that? even if it is bad i will need to upgrade my GPU anyway, and since rx 580s are overpriced as fuck (even after miners selling them back) i thought buying an rx vega would be a smart choice.
Oliver Wright
three products kind of imply that water cooled variant probably will be 600-650 max step lower 450-500 and 300-350
Adrian Rodriguez
>i googled and tried this calculator Dumb normalshits
Jace Rivera
Will Vega come in a blue edition?
Jackson Sanchez
it's going to be bad. I'd spend money on infrastructure first before GPU, or just get 560/1050ti for now
Henry Cox
What should I do now?
Alexander Harris
Get a new GPU so it doesn't bottleneck your graphic card
Brody Moore
get a third GPU, that surely will help
William Bennett
And then get a fourth.
Adam Rogers
certainly not in a green.
I think I saw some rendered images with a black/red scheme, but I don't think that they are official.
If you mean a water-cooled version, then probably yes, since it's basically the same die.
Brody Thompson
>wait for vega
Why did I believe... Why do they always have to disappoint me
Julian Jones
>they Who?
Logan Walker
AMD whole R&D department
Jaxon Diaz
They have like two missteps being R600 and Bulldozer.
Adam Johnson
Yes, dual cores is absolutely a bottleneck, even 4 cores with no hyperthreading is a bottleneck in some games. 4core/8threads is the bare minimum if you want to play videojiames comfortably.
David Jackson
>even 4 cores with no hyperthreading is a bottleneck in some games. >tfw I fell for the ''an i5 will be more than enough for ANYTHING for at least 5 years'' meme and got a 6500 I haven't felt so cucked before.
Daniel Powell
So was it confirmed that many of the features promised for Vega are currently disabled in the drivers? I'm talking about the tile based rasterization, culling, and some bandwidth stuff. I've heard that some of those features are not enabled and are why FE is doing do poorly in games and drawing so much power. Bullshit? Or master plan by AMD to have RX blow everything out of the water from left field?
Logan Martinez
Not master plan, more like "The drivers aren't finished/stable enough for release"
Julian Reyes
>Or master plan by AMD to have RX blow everything out of the water will know tomorrow they wouldn't make people sign NDA in Budapest? that would be crazy
Owen Powell
They want another R300.
Levi Bell
>currently disabled in the drivers? And people were wondering why AMD would disable features, before throwing its card out to the public
Aaron Morales
Stability? FE is marketed as prosumer card.
Jaxon Evans
That's the price of an RX 580. No way you'll get Vega for that.
I think the cheapest Vega will be around $450 to $500, with their flagship probably being at least $650.
Hunter Martinez
What graphics card do you have? And are you planning to upgrade it any time soon? You probably aren't that "cucked".
Leo Martinez
Literally the only reason it exists is to say they launched vega on schedule
The other shit isn't finished
Brody Johnson
It works as compute board. You can even tinker with ROCm. Though Maxwell was delayed two quarters, not two month and no one complained.
Zachary Walker
Honestly, I'm pretty close to just buying a 500 series. If they have the release date be early September I can manage, but got damn. Get your shit together, AMD.
Blake Hall
It WILL be enough, even more so if directx and vulkan become mainstream. Having a beefier CPU only makes sense if you're playing above 60 fps. If you are not, then you're good to go. Don't listen to AMD shills misinfo who try to pretend that suddenly games need 23448902348923749238 cores to work. The vast majority doesn't even use 4 cores and most of the ones that do still only hammer the first thread.
Lincoln Wood
>Get your shit together, AMD. Maxwell was delayed two quarters and no one cared. Shut the fuck up and wait.
Chase Kelly
directx 12*
Isaiah Campbell
The difference being nvidia wasn't eating amd's dust for a year and a half like AMD is.
Eli Morales
Maybe AMD has some other revenue sources so they can give ~0 shits about halo offerings for some time while cooking new uarch?
Justin Adams
Maxwell was never delayed
AYYMDPOORFAGS lying to cover for their dying, bankrupt company, beyond pathetic
Joseph Rodriguez
>Maxwell was never delayed Oh boy. OH BOY. Let's not do that.
