AMD Radeon RX Vega 64

Released Aug 14, 2017$499 launch priceGraphics Card

AMD's flagship Vega 10 desktop card enables all 64 compute units (4,096 stream processors) with 8GB of HBM2 on a 2,048-bit bus for 483.8 GB/s of bandwidth. The air-cooled reference model launched at $499 with a 295W typical board power and a 1,247 MHz base / 1,546 MHz boost clock.

Pros

  • 8GB of HBM2 on a 2,048-bit bus delivers up to 483.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth
  • Full Vega 10 configuration with 64 compute units and 4,096 stream processors
  • Supports FreeSync, DirectX 12 and Vulkan, with DisplayPort 1.4 HDR outputs
  • Launched at $499 for the air-cooled reference model

Cons

  • 295W typical board power requires two 8-pin connectors and a 750W minimum PSU recommendation
  • No hardware ray tracing or AI upscaling cores
  • Higher power draw than its 210W sibling, the RX Vega 56, for a modest step up in shader count
  • Dual Link DVI and VGA outputs are not provided
