How has the RX Vega 64 and GTX 1080 Aged?

Back when the RX Vega 64 launched it lost to the 1080, after a few driver updates the 1080 was still winning by 5%. Well not much has changed. And I compared the GTX 1080 FTW and the AMD RX Vega 64 Nitro+

Did you let the Vega card run completely stock? If so without even an undervolt it’s a major disservice to the card and it is basically dead even in most games and trades blows in many new games.

V64 properly undervolted recks the 1080 in RE2, Division, but will get smashed by the 1080 in ACOD or Metro Exodus us

I’ve seen a lot of being based around how the game abuses Tesselation too… games with heavy tessalation will benefit nvidia a lot more.

I want to see frequency
If the V64 isn’t at 1640+ all the time, then I got words lol

Mine won’t run at 1640 :frowning: i got the bum card. Though i wonder how much of my crashing was related to my issue in the other thread with the CPU.

I have mine at:

P6 at 1000mv - 1607mhz, and P7 at 1100mv - 1677

Memory at 1050mhz, 1000mv

+50% power limit

Aggressive fan curve

I usually hang around 1630-1660mhz unless I hit my fps cap

Snaeb what resolution was your game testing on? Those SoTTR look like 1080p numbers

edit: oh crap that’s rottr nm

i don’t have any of those games to test lol.

I have division 2 and sottr lol

Anyone curious of what the Vega Frontier does with the non game benchmarks

Don’t have any of those games listed so sorry

Besides the Vega 64 is the same as the frontier, just has 16 GB instead lol

edit: will update if necessary

I’ll give it a shot, nothing bad can really happen anyway lol, it’ll just shut down if it doesn’t like it.

which brand of the vega 64 do you have again?

it is hynix memory is it

Same as salgeron’s, the Sapphire.

mine has samsung

still think if you two had gotten the silver edition one you would have nicer performance imo

not worth the money.

it was what, $100 more?

i got zero complaints with my purchase.

All three free games it came with are stellar, and Division 2 is my primary game right now and already have 44 hours in.

yeah i know the others came with it too, but the value here was incredible for only $399

so glad i didn’t get the rtx2060 that i was considering just before.

I would have gotten the silver one because the looks if I was in your position at that time

Thats just me though

You seen my vega frontier, the gunmetal look makes it look really nice

Just an update, finally found some settings that seem to be working for it with yours, everything else I’ve tried hasn’t been near as good, sat betting about 1630 and 1643 mhz and really never went about 70 degrees through a whole benchmark, twas nice.

What sucks the most is my own vega frontier does not have the official 2019 adrenalin edition drivers

I’m still stuck at 18.9.3

But at least the professional drivers are still being updated, thats all that matters to me

Nah, the reference actually matches better.

I have white nzxt s340 + black and red internals.

Think stormtrooper

Those are good numbers.

I mostlyv see mine between 1630 and 1660 max, usually around 1640ish

The silver edition one can be Captain Phasma :joy:

I’m a little short for a stormtrooper already

No way I can be phasma
