I have GTX 1070 & just bought a used Vega 64...

FK2tame

Hello there, I have a Palit GTX 1070 Dual Fans that I have changed the cooler with Arctic Accelero Xtreme III & last week just bought a used Vega 64 for $280. After clearing the Nvidia driver using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU), I installed the Vega 64, driver, doing some benchmark and test the game with Assassin Creed Odyssey.

 

I cant see much difference ingame between those two card. My monitor support FreeSync and I have enabled it. Then y Realtek Audio Manager stop working and I still cant use it even after installing the driver again. Also my pc wont shut down completely even after the screen goes black and i still can hear the fan sound from both the pc & Vega 64. Any idea whats going on? Right now I'm in between staying with the Vega 64 or switching back to the 1070 (due to the noise when high temperature).

There isn't much difference between the two.

In theory, vega64 is better than 1070, but you might meet cpu bottleneck or others. Besides your vega might be used to mine so it could be damaged.

depends on the games you play. In most games they will perform very similar but Vulcan optimised stuff like doom will give the vega an edge.
