Looks pretty cheap compared to other Vega cards, hopefully it is.

maybe thats the XT and the XTX with AIO will have a fancier shroud like the FELooks pretty cheap compared to other Vega cards, hopefully it is.

looks huge especially depth. like almost 3-slot. Probably not but doesn't bode well for power use.
And that could actually be the problem.

Do they?These are the same factors that were to sell AMD cards in the past, but they have not moved marketshare much. They need something disruptive, and this doesn't seem to be it.
Kyle Bennett - "ASUS hand delivered this card to my house on Saturday morning, and took it with them Saturday evening. That all said, this card was an engineering sample but I was specifically told that it was representative of retail product. So basically a "reference" card built outside of mass production."
https://hardforum.com/threads/amd-r...i-g-sync-coming-soon.1940447/#post-1043127153Why the 1080Ti? shouldn't this be compared to the 1080 (the way AMD did it)?
Because I wanted to. AMD wanted me to use a 1080.
Interesting that Kyle is going along with the "blind freesync vs gsync" methodology AMD has been showing, albeit with a 1080Ti.

Yep 1080 level confirmed at this point:

So, basically, slightly better than what we saw for Vega FE?https://videocardz.com/71090/amd-radeon-rx-vega-3dmark-fire-strike-performance

(not exactly the same, but close... http://www.3dmark.com/fs/12987144?_ga=2.232791959.883445742.1498655120-1193447733.1498655120
Vega is as bad for non-gaming market as it is for gaming. Vega is to late to the market and the competition is disrupting the market with a big bang product.
That isnt even close to the truth. nVidia is pushing much more boundries. Pascal is superior to Polaris in every way. Maxwell is superior to Hawaii and Fiji. Fermi was a powerhouse with an architecture copied by AMD. There are only a few generations where AMD has pushed more boundries and delivered a better product.
Nope, its around the corner
nope (again). It's already here:

This seems to be the same crap blower as before. Throttling awaits, until Sapphire & XFX and the others slap on a Tri-X type of cooler.I was linked here to correct your statement. AMD hand delivered the card to me Saturday morning, and left with it Saturday evening.

Thats what a low power process will do for you, it falls off a cliff past a certain threshold.I wonder if vega is actually pretty good at per/watt, but is being pushed really hard with the high clocks and voltage, just so that they could get near 1080~ performance, losing the efficiency and still ending up as a massive failure in the eyes of gamers? Looking at rx 570 aftermarket cards, they range from consuming close to 120w, all the way to 200w. So even after a rather small overclock they start to really suck up the juice.

The problem is that all video cards have better per/watt if they're not pushed to the limits as well. A 1080 Ti can can be powered down to 200W or even 150W with only modest drops in performance.I wonder if vega is actually pretty good at per/watt, but is being pushed really hard with the high clocks and voltage, just so that they could get near 1080~ performance,
Well for AMD it's only a failure if they can't sell itVega is a 484mm^2. If it can't beat 1080 without being pushed to the limit that's still a failure.
