Benchmark gpu test: AMD XFX Radeon RX Vega 64 8GB vs Nvidia GTX 1070 Ti in STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 2
The well-known XFX assembler has officially announced the launch of the new Radeon RX Vega 56 and Radeon RX Vega 64 Double Edition graphics cards, two models that come with a fully customized design and that use AMD's Vega 10 graphics core.
We already talked about the Radeon RX Vega 56 and Radeon RX Vega 64 Double Edition but at the time we thought it was only a Radeon RX Vega 56 for power connectors, since the prototype filtered had a six-pin and another of eight pins.
However in the final models of both graphics cards we find two eight-pin power connectors, a decision that XFX will have taken to fully cover the energy needs of both without problem even when performing a high overclocking.
As for the design, the images speak for themselves, we have a quite peculiar finish with a quite voluminous dissipation system that should be very effective. In spite of everything XFX has managed to maintain a controlled size so that the card does not occupy more than two expansion slots.
Regarding the specifications, both cards come to the stock frequencies, so the overclock is in the hands of the user. We leave you a list with the basic keys of each one, although at the moment we do not know the sale price.
Personalized Radeon RX Vega graphics cards began to be seen soon after the official announcement of AMD's new graphic generation, based on the Vega 10 XT core.
ASUS was the first to move file and in fact supplied some units of the Radeon RX Vega Strix to certain media that came to publish analyzes of it, although the results were not anything positive and it did not reach the market.
Since then the arrival of the personalized Radeon RX Vega to the channel has been delayed to such an extent that the discomfort between users and retailers has been noticed. But this is not all, the reference models have had prices too high and far from the level recommended by AMD.
The high demand for graphic cards for cryptocurrency mining has influenced prices and also the availability of AMD's most powerful solutions, a situation that could begin to improve with the arrival of the personalized Radeon RX Vega channels.
For now, the first step has been XFX, a veteran in the graphic solutions market that has confirmed the launch of the XFX Radeon RX Vega 56 and Radeon RX Vega 64 Double Edition.
It has not given prices so it is not yet clear whether they will rank at the same level as the benchmark models or they will be more expensive, but in any case it is good news as it brings variety to the channel and should improve availability.
Other manufacturers such as ASUS, Sapphire and GIGABYTE have confirmed that they are working on customized Radeon RX Vega graphics cards that will theoretically arrive before the end of the year.
Nvidia does not want that in the field that dominates with solvency, the one of the graphic cards, it happens to him to Intel with the processors and AMD can recover terrain of simple form. The recently introduced Nvidia GTX 1070 Ti is a new card that tightens even more the range of this generation but giving more value to the money we pay for it, the weak point of the high range of Nvidia at the time of its release.
This is the Nvidia GTX 1070 Ti
Of the few cards of the 10 series of the Geforce of Nvidia that still did not have Ti version was the GTX 1070. Well, that jump to the next higher card, the GTX 1080, is already a reality in the form of Nvidia GTX 1070 You, with official price of 469 euros.
The new Nvidia Pascal architecture card keeps almost the entire GTX 1070 data sheet (429 euros official price, but third-party models start at 469 euros) but improves on CUDA cores (2432), approaching almost those of the GTX 1080, although with the model of the high range maintains the difference of the type of memory that uses, GDDR5 in front of the GDDR5X of the GeForce GTX 1080.
The GeForce GTX 1070 Ti will be able, according to Nvidia, to offer a more immersive experience in virtual reality, as well as to move without problems games like Destiny 2, Shadows of War, Star Wars Battlefront 2 and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.
The new graphics of the American multinational has been built following the architecture Pascal, based on the same GP104 GPU used in the GTX 1080, and will come equipped with 2,432 cores, assuming a substantial jump from the 1,920 cores that we could find in the GTX 1070.
It will also equip a GDDR5 memory from 8 GB to 8 Gbps, with a total bandwidth of 256 GB / s. It is also designed for overclocking, offering a wide margin to those who want to increase their clock speeds.
