AMD Radeon VII recent buyers have to be pissed. Wowww

Gotta MSI OptixMAG341CQ(Samsung VA 3440X1440 Panel) to replace my LG 34UM95! Freesync for my Red Devil Vega 64. Cant believe i waited this long for how smooth freesync is!

Recently looked at picking up a vega 64, all had then at 599 was about to pull the trigger and looked today, why have they jumped up $200 seemingly overnight. From 599 to 799? Why?

Amd is pretty much gonna Ryzen the GPU world. And finally bring competition back.

Not as a gamer card. That's from AMD themselves, look at the slides.

All with the same info from some source.

Vega was sacrificed for Navi. Why not put more resources into driver improvement of Vega, its gonna be last high end product for a while. Still stinks, we are dependent on Nvidia for new gpus.

I can understand pulling some resources to insure the company Survives, but RTG road mad is getting dictated by console market. How long did we wait for Vega for it to be a dud?

Article over at WCCFTECH outlines amd's new roadmoap. Highlighting its RTG priority of semicustom silicon(consoles) over PC gamer enthusiast parts. Due to margins and steady income streams. So literally Nvidia will have NO Competition for the foreseeable future. AMD has abandoned us for console glory..........(Also highlights RTG struggle with LIsa Su, and no having control over there own resources, speculation on Raja Koduri. https://wccftech.com/exclusive-amd-navi-gpu-roadmap-cost-zen/ Other sources of similar info" https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2018/06/12/sources-amd-created-navi-for-sonys-playstation-5-vega-suffered/#4a2b2f0924fd https://www.fudzilla.com/news/graphics/46526-big-navi-20-is-2020-or-later https://www.tweaktown.com/articles/8643/ps5-powered-navi-2020-amd-making-sony-input/index.html

Where are you guys getting these screen shots from. AMD is majority in top ten on newegg.

AMD is very important on two fronts, that i think most people dont realize. They are the only thing preventing monopolies in consumer cpus and gpus. They fold up, we are all screwed. So intel and nvidia do have an interest in the survivial of AMD, so i will always root for their survival, but this vega launch is a debacle. Year too late, still using over hyped/expensive memory, and under performing year old competition.

That is being purposely deceptive. Skewing reviews from the press as well. So retailers where actually rebated to get the $499 price. That means money would be lost on every sold unit otherwise. So definitely no 499 price.

that is more than 1080TI's! WTF.....

Vega 56 no, decent value. Vega 64 maybe. Drivers still have a way to go. But this rumored price hike is concerning.

NO compelling competition from AMD, NO need. Just like intel pre Ryzen.

I can understand the need to use HMB2 put has it been a tangible advantage in any product for AMD? Taking VEGA and attaching some much less expensive gddr6 and maybe cutting the price, would have done wonders. I've been in PC gaming for over 20yrs, and NEVER seen a scenario that a company raises the price of a product after launch in hindsight of it not being superior to the competition. That's almost professional suicide of the product. If this is true. VEGA is DOA. What reasonable gamer would buy this?

35MM film has higher resolution than 4k.

Anyone know of a site for purchase?(no links)

True, just wish AMD wasnt always behind or late with products. Gets frustrating. I score well in Steam VR benchmark, so i can still go that route till then.

They are doing fine on max setting usually, im faster than a 295x, but with VR coming on full bur, i'm feeling the itch to upgrade. And i prefer the fastest single card solution if possible.

Things is, i dont think prices will drop after titan or ti? They literally have NO competition for those cards at all.

But is 490X a legit product we'll see this year? Not a dual gpu card.

Just hope people have realistic expectations. There not gonna all of a sudden dethrone Intel. Price for performance is their specialty. New chips, new boards, and new gpus. Should be an interesting year for Amd.

I have an LG 37um95, I've been waiting on a decent replacement for my 290x's. Have yet to see many reviews of 1070 or 1080 at 3440*1440. Also ready to step in VR with an HTC Vive. I usually run AMD cards, but the AMD competition for the 1070 and 1080 is a ways off. Wait or make the jump?
