I'm running a weaker B350 ITX board right now. Awaiting my Asus X470 ITX sometime early May... then I'll be joining the OC and tweaking club with you!
For the most part the Gigabyte AB350N Gaming Wifi is an OK board, but I worry about the VRM even with the Wraith Prism blasting air down on the...
Close, look at the quoted number of games in the 5% claim vs the number of games in the 7.7% claim.
Just probably removed CS:GO and some other outliers. (Skyrim wtf is up there?)
Going 2700X (sweet, sweet Prism RGB) and pre-ordered the ASrock ITX X470 board coming May 1 (unfortunately).
Cramming it with more RGB fans into my existing H200i build temporarily running a R5 2400G that'll migrate to HTPC when I get my other stuff in.
That one is going into a InWin Chopin...
Yeah, after some more testing it seems my RAM doesn't like playing on either this CPU or mobo. Two sets of 3200CL14 and 3200CL16 Samsung B-die won't stay stable it seems at any speed above 2133mhz. If I leave it at 2133 I can get my iGPU up to 1500mhz with 1.3v no problem it seems.
These are...
I've been using Ryzen Master, which has a dedicated "APU GFX Voltage" option. I did try earlier with a BIOS setting, but I didn't go as high as I did in Ryzen Master, I'll try that next to see if I can make it stable.
Everything I've heard on YouTube and on Reddit points towards wanting to...
Yeah, during the time I was able to get it to run (not stable) at 1.5ghz it was definitely a significant frame rate increase. Running this on 3200CL16 RAM.
Hmm I've tried with DDU a few times. Even uninstalling all chipset drivers and Ryzen master software software, then reinstalling.
I may just run at stock until the next round of driver updates and BIOS update on my board... then do a fresh Windows 10 install (already did, but I noticed my UEFI...
I'm having trouble running my R5 2400G's GPU past 1.3ghz unfortunately, even if I toss more voltage at it. Not sure what's causing it, but even setting the frequency in Ryzen Master to a known tested frequency/voltage that's within my tested "safe" range occasionally just locks the system with...
When I put my tinfoil hat on I hypothesize that board partner cards won't be released until after this driver update if it has any significant uptick in performance.
This will give initial reviews much more favorable stacking vs Nvidia cards of the same price bracket, which is hugely important...
Do you think there might be less of a voltage wall with a different process compared to 14nm LPP as we see with Ryzen @ 4ghz or so? That's the biggest question for me.
With watercooling I don't mind if it takes a bit of voltage to hit 4.5ghz on a R5 1600 successor.
I'm also curious how the...
It was linked on a Reddit post to a forum somewhere either at Overclock.net or MSI somewhere... can't seem to find the link by searching, I'll check again when I'm home.
I tried the latest beta version of Afterburner (4.4.0 beta 20 I think it was) last night and it kept crashing my Prey :(
Will have to roll back to the earlier beta version I was using I guess...
1800X @ stock with 3200mhz RAM and Vega 64 - 00:16.50 or so usually.
Last run stats listed:
Frame:0 | Time:00:16:57 | Mem:2255.74M, Peak: 2257.99M
Whatever that means.
EDIT: If I set the whole thing in there (800 x 800 tile) it takes 14 and change seconds. And if it it matters, run on 17.9.1...
I got a code for Prey, that didn't seem account bound (gave it to a friend).
Haven't gotten the Wolfenstein one (game isn't out yet) so I don't know if they're paired yet or not.
I think upgrading every other generation has been a common thing in my history at least. And I don't deal with poor frame rates or non-native resolutions for my monitors.
The x80 and x70 replacements will need to be a compelling upgrade for the 290, 290x, 390, and 390x owners. It'd be...
Eh, we'll see.
RAM pricing is cocking up the whole market, so MSRP's will probably creep up noticeably from the GTX1060's launch prices. I wouldn't be surprised at a $275-300 baseline "MSRP" for the XX60 with it closing in on $350-400 for aftermarket parts.
I think most people generally keep a video card for 2 years minimum, honestly 3-4 years sounds more likely even for gamers. That's plenty of time to enjoy the benefits.
Additionally, if the performance improves relative to Pascal with newer games in the future, that will keep the resale value...
I snagged a XFX Vega 64 LC today when it popped up ever so briefly on Newegg with no HW bundle @ MSRP (with games).
I was in such a hurry I used default shipping methods... hopefully it'll get here by Friday if I'm lucky.
I think the success of Raven Ridge in low budget systems, utilizing Vega features as part of the APU, will help drive developers to adopt performance enhancing features of the architecture.
If millions and millions of systems are added that run Zen + an RX550-560 equivalent GPU as part of the...
Additionally, PUBG has a lot of work to do for optimizations in performance, period.
For the amount of "stuff" on the screen, it's just a cluster of badness.
If we go down by multiples of 8, I'd say that a 40 or 48 CU w/ 4gb of HBM2 could possibly fill in some of the RX580/570 4gb part range, especially if HBCC works properly, then maybe even the 8gb range..
It depends on the cost of the RAM, and how much they can (or need to) salvage from Vega 10...
Eh, I could undervolt my Fury by 60mv without issue for months and months (that I owned it before selling it to the mining craze) and my RX470 I can undervolt by 75mv no problem at stock clocks, and I play on it all the time.
I think it's unfortunate that the initial press driver wasn't giving voltage control.
It seems that for quite a while now the key to getting the best out of an AMD card isn't to OC, but to undervolt.
Fury, RX480, RX470, and now Vega? (that I've owned/buying)
Seems like the biggest oversight...
Well, a large number of RX460's could be fully unlocked, despite the batches of fully operational ones going to Apple.
I think once they reach their quota of binned ones, they just don't have enough left over to financially justify tiering. Like when Nvidia did the GTX 560 ti 448 Core Edition...
Clock for clock, the RX Vega isn't significantly different than the Vega FE in gaming. Little reason to delay a launch a month and a half, other than manufacturing delays.
Also, super low stock to boot at launch, hmmm strange that? Seems like there's a production hold up? What's the most...
Yes, that's why all the RX Vega 64's and FE's are using 945mhz Samsung HBM2 instead of their partner SK Hynix who can't provide anything faster than the lower grade 800mhz HBM2 even this late in the game.
Yes, totally on schedule!
I think Vega 10 tape out was last June based on this "milestone" celebration.
I'd expect Navi to take about as long, and they're doing tape outs of 7nm products by the end of this year. So another year cycle from there puts it Q4 2018 / Q1 2019 for product release.
Keep in mind Vega was...
Yeah, 4k is still a fever dream at max settings in my opinion.
Next generation, maybe? I want closer to 100fps than 40-60fps in my games.
Then again, I mostly play FPS games.
Let's see.... money?
People getting exasperated about a tech company not being able to fully match both competitors (Intel and Nvidia) who BOTH have multiple times the total R&D budget that AMD has to split to both CPU and GPU is just baffling to me.
They made a chip that can kind of do higher...
Vega is tailored for the high margin markets of workstation and compute. It's a jack of all trades design.
Gaming suffers, but hopefully AMD's margins improve with the MI25 and WX9100 products doing well in their respective markets, especially in their bang for buck proposition.
More money...
