AMD has, in addition to the three new models of the highend desktop processor Ryzen Threadripper on the Siggraph also presented two new high-end GPUs, the Radeon RX Vega 56 and 64. Both will be available in the middle of August. The AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 comes in three versions: the cheaper air cooled version costs around 500 euros and has 4096 shader ALUs / Stream processors, 8 GB HBM2 memory, a clock of 1.247 MHz (1,546 boost) and a computing performance of 12.66 TFLOPs and one Storage bandwidth of 484 GB / s with a TDP of 295W. It comes in a limited edition with a silver cooler cover, once with black. The more expensive Liquid Cooled with AiO water cooling version costsAround 700 euros and clocks with 1.406 (1.677 MHz Boost) somewhat higher - with otherwise same technical data - the TDP falls with 345W due to the faster clocking also somewhat higher. In AMD's Vega range, performance enhancers are only the already presented 1000 and 1,500 dollar expensive Vega Frontier models with 16 GB HBM2 memory. The already for late 2016 suspected dual Vega GPU has not yet materialized - but would be the next logical performance step for a high-end CPU - and necessary for AMD, to beat the Nvidias GTX 1080 Ti performance. PIC1: AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Air Cooled The RX 56 is a stripped-down RX 64, costs around 400 euros and has 3585 stream processors, also 8 GB HBM2A computing power of 10.5 TFLOPs and a storage bandwidth of 410 GB / s. According to AMD, the RX Vega 64 in performance is comparable to Nvidia's 500+ GeForce GTX 1080 - in direct gaming comparison, it is somewhat faster in some games, slightly slower in others. First external benchmarks achieve similar results: the 3DMark Firestrike GPU score of the two cards is very close. However, the somewhat higher TDP of the AMD card is: 295 or 345W compared to the 180 Watt of the GeForce GTX1080. u003cimg src=
