AMD drops price on Radeon RX Vega 56 to Battle GeForce GTX 1660 Ti
As the title says, AMD is lowering the price on their Radeon RX Vega 56 to Battle GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. Starting today you'll see prices in the £249 / 285 EUR ranges for that still pretty dandy graphics card. You get three games as well.
These discounts could be regional, so I am not certain where on the globe it will take proper effect. Here's a press release:
Gamers looking for the best performance in today’s most popular AAA titles, from Apex Legends to Tom Clancy's The Division 2, need look no further than theAMD Radeon RX Vega 56 graphics card. Offering high-end performance and incredible features with an attractive price tag, the GPU is now available from £249 on eBuyer and OCUK.
Today’s top titles require increasing amounts of memory to deliver the performance, hyper-realistic settings and life-like characters gamers demand. With 8GB of HBM2 memory, the RX Vega 56 is purpose-built to power the most demanding titles. Harnessing the advanced AMD Vega GPU architecture, the RX Vega 56 also features:
- Rapid Packed Math doubles the rate of compute to allow for faster physics and compute calculations on RX Vega GPUs.
- Shader Intrinsics allow direct game-to-hardware access on RX Vega cards to extract more performance from the GPU.
- Radeon FreeSync display technology brings an end to choppy gameplay and broken frames with fluid, artifact-free performance at virtually any framerate, while FreeSync 2 HDR ensures low-latency, high-brightness pixels and a wide color gamut to High Dynamic Range (HDR) content for PC displays.
Further sweetening the deal, with AMD’s Raise the Game Fully Loaded bundle,
Gamers who purchase a Radeon RX Vega 56 or eligible Radeon RX Vega 56 powered PC will receive complimentary PC versions of Resident Evil 2, Devil May Cry 5 and Tom Clancy's The Division 2, three of 2019’s most anticipated titles.

5 words all negative We understood it you do not like the products of the AMD but as you see competition brings profit to the consumer let us hope better products in the future with greater profits for us.

I would rather Navi be late and perform the way we expect it to than to be rushed and disappointing. Sure, it is annoying to wait this long, but if your hopes are so low, what are you waiting for at this point?

I'm very much expecting Navi. This architecture is probably what we will see on the "PS5" & "XBOX 2"(next gen consoles) this could have massive implications to game requirements.
also i'll probably get a Navi GPU as soon as it comes out. I just feel like it should have been sooner. RTX is not selling, Nvidia is having issues now it's the ideal time to strike

Maybe I'm wrong, but it feels like the first time that AMD has to drop their prices because of Nvidia.
Anyways, competition is good, we see it here.
