More Vega Frontier Edition Performance Numbers Surface

More Vega Frontier Edition Performance Numbers Surface

Earlier today new benchmarks of the AMD Vega Frontier Edition have surfaced. This round Ekin Tech got his hands on a Vega Frontier Edition, and in a live broadcast session they outted game performance numbers. 

First a bit of a warning as the photos that you see are screenshots from that live-stream, so that's not the best quality to look at. Secondly these are FCAT FPS plots (50% is roughly what would be an average FPS) and thus can be a bit harder to grasp.

I also want to state very clearly that the the Radeon RX Vega Frontier Edition is not meant to be a gaming card whatsoever. However everybody is jumping on it as hey .. it's a Vega powered graphics card and we've been waiting for a year on some results right ? That does not imply or mean the results you see can be compared to what the consumer product will be like. The Frontier Edition is not intended to be a gaming card, hence the drivers have not been developed for it either (despite showing a gaming mode).

The card shines in some yet lacks in other benchnmark tests, at a resolution of 2560x1440, Vega Frontier Edition is close to the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti in Fallout 4. Then in Grand Theft Auto V it actually gets beaten by a GTX 1070, the same in The Witcher 3 but shows higher performance than a GTX 1070 in Hitman and Dirt Rally. So that last bit isn't really good news.

In Ultra HD 4K we see a totally different picture. The Vega FE matches the GTX 1080 mostly and closely in Dirt Rally and Fallout 4. In Hitman, the Vega FE is slower than the GTX 1080, 50 FPS versus 60 for the 1080.You'll see similar results for the Witcher 3.

Also good to note is that power consumption was measured and rated at 280 Watts, that is not that bad really. In the end though, everybody is hyped and excited. We do know that the final consumer parts will be clocked higher and will get actual proper drivers. Time will tell how good (or bad) Vega really is, but this should get you through the weekend I guess, have a good browse, click the thumbnails to see the full-size screenshots :)

While I'm sure this is not a true representation of Vega's potential I'll stick ith this. http://www.3dmark.com/fs/13051692

this is the best explanation (from technical standpoint) that I could find:



That being sad: I was pretty happy with my 5850 and saw no reason to go for 68xx whatever.
Actually VLIW4 were only 69xx. Not that it matters much since 6850 was weaker than 5850 due to being designed with smaller transistor budget in mind.
