Rx Vega

[ImNotThere]

So i have found a few small youtube videos of people with like sub 1k subs posting videos of rx vega 64s in crossfire, why havent the "bigger" people done it, like Linus, Paul, Bitwit or even GN... is there a definitive answer?

They were only sent one, and Vega is so expensive and so rare that not many people have more than one of them.

Also it is more convenient to just get a 1080 ti because of support for sli/crossfire and some games scaling for multiple gpus is terrible

 all of the youtubers are a little annoyed about how vega's price inflated so much after launch. they weren't told that there was a rebate of 100 dollar for only the first week which screwed up their videos price to performance metric. That annoyed them a little because they couldn't change it. Also they didn't like the bundles that you had to buy. I think 5that is why they aren't doing a video because it would apply to very few people and they are just a little salty about how Vega was launched and priced.
