SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 NITRO caught on photo and gets tested

SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 NITRO caught on photo and gets tested

It's been many weeks topic of discussion, when will the Vega 56 and 64 custom cards get out. Albeit we tested the ASUS one already (here), some new content surfaced of a SAPPHIRE Radeon RX Vega 64 NITRO in Asia.

The NITRO Vega has surfaced, and HWBattle posted a bit of a preview of the card. The NITRO RX Vega 64 comes with a triple-fan cooler and of course, has some LED enablement.
 

 
This Radeon RX Vega 64, the one with the GPU has 4096 stream processors, holds a custom tri-fan cooler that tries to keep the card at lower temperatures whilst remaining at hopefully a fairly low and inaudible RPM. Judging from the video, that seems to be in order. From the looks of things, only that VEGA chip is the one thing original, as hey the PCB was modified and customized to seat that RX Vega 64 chip with its onboard 8GB of HBM2. The end result is a beefy looking card alright, at three PCIe slots wide.

 

 
As you can see from the photos and video, there is no DVI connector port available. No further and or final specification on clock frequencies have been mentioned. You'll notice a whopping 3x 8-pin power connectors, which is a bit silly, to be honest. Early benchmarks (check the chart below) indicate a very small bump in performance over the reference model.

Yeah, will be quite the heater alright. But hey, I already turn the heating off in my gaming room during winter time. On the flip side, I run AC almost all the time during summer, so no savings sadly. :oops:

Nice to see some custom Vega cards finally popping though.

I really wanted AMD to have success in both cpu and gpu, ryzen was a great success IMO, Vega not so much.
