AMD VEGA is here !!!!

                                   

 With AMDs Vega Frontier Edition now available it was only a matter of time before a consumer would get his hands on it. User  #define @ Disqus purchased one, took unboxing photos and ran a 3DMark Firestrike.User #define is still working on some SPECViewperf and 3DMark results, both based on the gaming and non gaming profiles that this Vega card offers. His system is based on a stock clocked Core i7 4790K / ASUS Maximus VII Impact motherboard 16 GB (2x8) dual channel Corsair Vengeance Pro Black modules, running at 2133 MHz. 

 It seems that PC and the beta driver is responsible for the somewhat lackluster score, and the GPU frequency is all over the place he mentions. Firestrike scored 17313 points, however that is the generic P score. if you look at the graph then the actual graphics score is 22916 though, which is say 10% above the GeForce GTX 1080.  A GeForce GTX 1080 Ti / Titan Xp (Pascal scores roughly 28K on that GPU score. I'll update this article once he has some more results, and setup the card better. 

 So over the night  #define updated with Firestrike Extreme and Ultra scores. The Ultra test is significant as that pretty much roots our the processor and system memory in the score.  The score for him (in the current state) is 5216 points. I charted that up and threw it into the mix with the Guru3D tests (based on a massive Core a7 5960X quad-channel setup). Remember that chart is indicative, nothing else. 

here is the  Unboxing AMD Radeon Vega Frontier!!!
