I had an intermittent display issue with a red devil vega 64 and had to rma it, it wold get wrose and wrose as time wentry on. It the led bar is lighting up on boot it is likely toast. Bogus, as it seems to be a fairly common issue with the vega 64, they just stop working. Not sure exactly why

you will be fine

agree with the above poster, nitro+ nothing else. its the quietest and best looking 580

It'll be fine its the same chip just a different manufacturer. They don't sell much here in the states. China mostly from what I know. I'd get it for 300 less for sure

red devil 64

most people don't know what to do with 4 cores let alone 8, the 7700k is still a viable gamer, not much to gain from doubling core count in most situations

I've had the nitro and currently have a red devil vega 64. If you get one go with one of these. I'd say that the sapphire is the more premium brand but I do like my red devil a lot. Get a good psu, good luck

vega 64 or 56

another RTX failure send it back

vega 64

Vega 56

There are a ton of tutorials on YouTube

Skip the rtx cards and get a vega, at least they work

You need 16gb ram as mentioned above, it will greatly improve your gameplay experience

550 is not recommended, because it can cause issues if itsa junk psu

Nitro vega 56 is the best hands down, powercolor and asus follow it up

RTX card not working you say? Nvidia strikes again Rma that thing asap

stay off boobtube, it will ROT your brain, not Linus' channel though of course

just sent back a Powercolor Radeon RX Vega 64 Red Devil that was having intermittent issues not showing display on boot. kind of like it didn't initialize sometimes it was weird because when it was up and running it was fine. finally got frustrated and contacted the RMA dept and started a ticket. sent it out on the 15th of Jan, and by the end of the day on the 27th. I had a nice brand new looking vega 64 that works no less, in my hands. the emailed when they received it telling me they were going to test it and a few days later I got an email with a tracking number saying that it was on the way, NICE!!! got it and it's good to go, I read so many horror stories from all GPU makers, that I wasn't sure how my experience would go. I have to say it was nice to get good warranty service like that. I know stuff goes wrong, nice to know they'd cover it.
