AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 8GB review - Product Photos

 
AMD delivered some nice bundle /  packaging with the Vega 64. The Vega 56 however we received in plain packaging.  Above the two cards, the Vega 56 and 64. Again let me reiterate, both are looking 100% similar in design.

 
Alright, so up top, there she is; the Radeon RX Vega 56 Black from AMD, we received an (obvious) 8 GB version with heat-pipe design cooler. It has two PCIe PEG power connector (8-pin) connectors. The card has been designed to be a nice match for gaming up-to 1080P, 1440P and still even Ultra HD at 3840x2160 pixels. At 399 USD with 8GB it is passing the geForce GTX 1070 in most scenarios, that's not a bad position to be in. Obviously there's more to check out other than performance, we'll have a peek at PCB heat levels, GPU temperatures, as well as noise levels in this review.

 
The  Radeon RX Vega 56 is armed with 8 GB HBM2 graphics memory which will be clocked at 800 MHz / 2048-bit to give you a little more leash with the higher resolutions and image quality settings. The reference clocked product will run with clock frequencies up-to 1156 MHz on its 3584 shader processor base clock with a 1471 MHz available boost. The card itself is the familiar looking dual-slot solution.

 
Radeon RX Vega 56 based product has been designed to be a match for at least the most popular Wide Quad HD resolutions. Actually, it places a strong focus on 1440P gaming. The reference board includes one HDMI (2.0b) and three DisplayPort 1.4 (HDR ready) connectors, lacking is a DVI connector which we're sure the AIB partners will embed.

Once again, you can see both the Radeon RX 56 and 64 Black edition. The cards are physically 100% similar looking.
