Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 64 Card SKU names surface

Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 64 Card SKU names surface

Website elchapuzasinformatico in the past has been pretty spot on with information that should not be out there. This round they apparently stumbled into three Sapphire Radeon RX Vega cards.

From what we can derrive from the information, there will be two cooling solutions for Vega cards, liquid (LCS) and obviously air-cooled ones. Sapphire seems to be releasing three models:

  • SAPPHIRE RADEON RX VEGA 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + TRIPLE DP, LIQUID COOLING 2048-bits - Water Cooler
  • SAPPHIRE RADEON RX VEGA 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + TRIPLE DP LIMITED EDITION 2048-bit - 2 slot active
  • SAPPHIRE RADEON RX VEGA 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + TRIPLE DP 2048-bit - 2 slot active

The Limited edition probably is a higher clocked edition. We cannot really verify this information whatsoever, however it would make no sense to make up naming like that. RadeoN RX Vega 64.If you think that "64" suffix is a little weird, it isn't really when you think about it. A full Vega chip has 64 shader processor clusters with 64 shader processors each = 4096 shader processors.

There is more info though, El Chapuzas mentions a 699 Euro and 899 Euro pricing in-between the cheapest and that liquid cooled edition. That would be ex VAT here in the EU with prices roughly similar in USD. El Chapuzas states that their source is reliable. As always take news like this with a grain of salt, but looking at the naming schema, it would not surprize me if it is correct.

AMD will make formal announcements next week.

If that hold true we are going to have to talk a few users on here off a ledge.

Seriously though even if they are not competing with Ti from the start AMD has to price around here considering the cost of making Vega (including R&D and legacy cost).

Historically, AMD has never targeted nv pricing unless it was competitive to nv offerings. Also, they've been known to sandbag. If this holds out to be true and it's determined that it's competitive to a ti then some (new) feature(s) have been disabled. And won't be enabled until either the review drivers are released or a driver sometime after review drivers.

Right now, 17.7.2 (newly release driver for AMD) is the 1st driver that doesn't work properly with AB and GPUz. So it stands to reason this is some sort of new branch driver.

We will see

I'm buying it anyway. The fine wine has treated me very well. Its been the opposite from the green team on my last two purchases. Not trying to be biased. Just my own anecdotal experiences but I feel like my Nvidia cards would be screaming one year but as soon as the new cards come out it can no longer handle new games. I know this is more of a conspiracy theory but i think there is some sort of planned obsolescence by nature in Nvidia's unified driver.

Geez, they will rule a fair few people out. It would have to be faster or at the very least match the 1080Ti to justify that. Hopefully that pricing is wrong.
