The Radeon RX Vega 64 is AMD’s latest Radeon flagship graphics card. It is the first Vega based gaming GPU and follows on from the recent launch of the Vega Frontier Edition. The Vega architecture is built on 14 nm silicon and contains next-generation compute units (nCUs) that have been engineered to be more efficient and powerful than ever before, enabling gamers to achieve higher frame rates at 4K. Each NCU houses 64 steam processors, of which the Vega 64 has 4096 (compared to 3584 in the Vega 56) which can process up to 13.7 TFLOPS (0.6 TFLOPS more than the Frontier Edition) in the liquid cooled version of the GPU. The new architecture also employs 8GB of second generation high-bandwidth memory (HBM2) which is able cope with more data, more quickly than previously. AMD describe this as the most significant leap in their GPU architecture for the last five years. Our graphics benchmarks place the performance of the Vega 64 amongst the best. Its effective speed is very close to that of the twice as expensive Frontier Edition (a workstation GPU with a gaming mode) and just behind NVIDIA’s similarly priced, but now 1 year old GTX 1080. Despite the hopes of AMD enthusiasts, the great performance from the Vega 64 has not been able to exceed the even greater performance from NVIDIA’s GTX 1080 Ti, released earlier this year. The 33% faster 1080 Ti offers better value for money than an RX 64 would even if it were available at its list price of $599. The best prices for RX 64's today are closer to $750 making the RX 64 somewhat redundant until prices drop down to the low $500 mark. [Sep '17 GPUPro]

Serves me well, can expect more performance if games use RPM feature of this card. It also out performs 1080 ti in production work that i do

I like but it is a little to expensive. In comparison a Nvidia graphics card with the same price is a bit faster. But with vega you can use Free-Sync so you can save some monex there.

Comment 

vs. 1080: Worse performance, FAR higher power consumption, FAR higher thermal output, more expensive - literally no upside unless you have spent alot on a top-notch freesync monitor and can get the 64 at the same price as a 1080.—Oct '17

In games with new API (dx12, vulkan) it have better performance, than nVidia cads, that cost the same.

Overpriced, cost as much as a 1080Ti ($699), uses too much power and poor performance for the money. Poor Vega.

I was lucky to have bought it at 570€. I bought it because I hate nvidia's gimping (gameworks) and the extremely slow OpenCL performances on macOS (I sometimes use it on an Hackintosh). Best card I've ever tried! I use it in 1080p or 1400p virtual, and every game can be played at 60fps without any problem. At those resolutions it uses about 150-180W, and I'm happy with that.
