Temperatures and Power Draw
Whilst all modern graphics cards are efficient enough that the power draw figures no longer hit the stratosphere, if you’re the type of person who games all weekend a few Watts saved can soon add up. Temperatures are the most important figure though, as cooler cards mean less noise and more thermal headroom for those all important clock speed boosts.

Based on this review, And several others, I will not be purchasing a Radeon 7, I'll either wait for high end Navi or if that disappoints aswell I'll end up quitting PC, Prices are going up and up and up and gen to gen performance is stagnating.Quote
Do you know why the performance is worse than RXVega64 in Battlefield 1? Is that from patches or something?
Edit: Love the new battlestation though
Edit2: I've seen some other benches showing the Radeon7 outperforming the 2080 too or 35% better than Vega64 I think something external might have affected that testQuote

If they're Tom Tit I will probably not even bother setting up my PC at my new flat for a while.
But aye, a 1080Ti will do any one tbh.
Edit. Apologies, where are my manners? thank you kindly Mr Guv for the review. It's pretty much everything Lisa Su said it would be so no false expectations or smoke and mirrors like last time. I am glad she handled the launch tbh. It really cut out on the bullshine.Quote
Great review, Thanks Tom. Look forward to seeing how the AIB's present these, hopefully we see some lower temps, higher oc's and a little less noise.Quote

But it seems that Vega VII is competitive in titles which make good use of async compute and otherwise it's almost a 2070 competitor, making it overall a hard card to recommend.Quote
