$700 Starting Price for Sapphire Radeon RX Vega

Sapphire have plans to launch three RX Vega models later this year, with prices starting from $700 as speculated via a Spanish AMD retailer.

Three Variants Available

There will be three different options available for sale. Prices are yet to be confirmed, but according to a Spanish retailer, the cards will come at a price of $700 upwards to $900. The Models are the Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + Triple DP 2048-bit – 2 slot active air cooled. Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + Triple DP LIMITED EDITION 2048-bit – 2 slot active air cooled. Finally, the Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 64 8G HBM2 HDMI + Triple DP LIQUID COOLED 2048-bit – Water Cooled.

The final pricing points for not just the Sapphire models, but the entire RX Vega range will be announced this coming Monday. We will be sure to cover this as soon as the prices are released. The benchmarks of the 3 variants we know of so far are shown in the image below, check out the article here. Images courtesy of VideoCardz

Reasonable Pricing?

Of course, the pricing is yet again not set in stone. However, the source for the information has been known to be reliable in past situations. If the prices are confirmed, we could see another upset at AMD. The pricing seems to be much higher than people had originally anticipated. Considering you can pick up a GTX 1080 for less with slightly better performance, it could prove detrimental to the success of the cards. Granted that the water cooled variant should prove to be the more powerful card. I would also expect it to have better options for a stable overclock and temperatures. Is it enough to convince you to make the switch to the Sapphire Radeon RX Vega over the GTX 1080?

  1. I’ve been really excited about Vega but if it comes out to $700 for the lowest card then I’m out, looks like I’ll be going with nVidia instead :/

      1. Keyword being IF… gotta read everything someone types up before you reply. I’m a huge AMD fan and wanna upgrade my R9 280X to the water cooled Vega card but if the prices aren’t worth it then my patience will have run out.

      2. No, because:
        a) Every article has been saying Vega is not going to be cheap
        b) AMDs own marketing of the complete system puts the Vega cards higher than Nvidia competitor
        c) HBM2 is expensive to manufature

  2. So glad I didn’t wait for this garbage. My 1080 Ti has been making me happy for several months.

    1. Garbage, only uneducated people call AMD that way, peasant…
      Where is NOvideo (nvidia) all tech that makes difference AMD HBM, AMD Vukan, RElive better then shadow play…

      1. All people care about is performance, at the moment Nvidia have the 3 fastest cards. If AMD can’t compete with that for a good price then they are not going to get sales.

          1. So you buy AMD just because it’s Amd? to me that is brainless.
            If AMD had a fast cheap card I would buy it. thats why I am waiting to see what Vega is like. If it’s not that great, I will buy a 1080.

            3 cards are the ones you literally just mentioned. 1080, 1080ti and Titan XP.

          2. There are 3 possible things you are, an uneducated peasant, fanboy or just a troll, not sure witch one of them……..
            3 cards ? when just did the 1080TI become any different card then GTX Titan Xp ?????????

            Yes i buy ONLY AMD just bcuz is called AMD, not bcuz i see facts, and i know things, seems you don`t know them…

            I like the way how you skipped my video link i will give you more links, just to show you what a troll you are……..

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSMJRyxG0k

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcF36_qMd8M

            How about after this to tell me your bull$h1ts ?

          3. it’s still a different card. really not hard to grasp.
            Not sure how I am a fanboy when I said i was considering buying Vega…
            You seem slightly autistic.

            AMD will get a sale from you despite being more expensive and has worse performance than a 1080? that’s why people think you are on the spectrum.

          4. Most of the things you say are bull$hit, look the videos then talk..
            + the 1080TI = Titan Xp, but seems you don`t know that…

          5. I know that performance is similar but that they are completely different cards. something that seems to go over your head.

          6. If 95% of both the cards are the same, does the 1GB more for the Titan Xp makes it other card ? I see 2 identical cards…

          7. Except as you just said yourself, they have different memory amounts. whether they have similar performance is immaterial. they are different cards.

            it really isn’t a hard concept to grasp. I pity anyone that knows you.

          8. 95% and “identical” are two different things, bozo. The point is that I don’t give a shyte about Nvidia or AMD”s business practices- I care about having the best card in my rig. And that would be the 1080 Ti, and still will be after the RX Vega turd is released.

            And since I own a 1080 Ti and you don’t, I guarantee I have a better GPU than you- and that clearly makes YOU the peasant in this conversation, son.

          9. And what is whole your system i bet is some trash intel junk..

            About giving $h1t for AMD, yes smart people do that (seems you are not, you are UNEDUCATED) , bcuz i did see what happend when the dumb consumers did buy only intel, and intel did remove AMD the last 11 years, to sell expansive crap, but i don`t see how uneducated peasants such as you will know something like that dumb 1d1ot…

            I run GTA V on max settings even with R9 290 like i care for your trash 1080TI that is WAY overpriced, dumb rat…

            At least watch the videos, bcuz your brain is still in the state of monkey….

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSMJRyxG0k

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcF36_qMd8M

          10. So you have a R9 290 and you’re calling my Aorus Xtreme 1080 Ti trash, huh? Wow, worlds biggest troll right here folks. This is like the Honda Civic owner trying to embarrass the guy in the Lamborghini!

            My system is better than yours, period. You’d trade rigs with me in a second and you know it.

          11. So what You think now ?? AMD failed Everyone !!!
            its expensive when they promised to bring prices down compared to NV yet they priced cards at same points NV has

            Power drawn is stupid high at stock so once you OC You are looking at over 400w. NVs faster cards take around 100w less

            And performance ?? its barely faster than 1080 FE thats been out over 14 months.

            I waited for Vega since announcement after Sunday i ordered Pascal Titan with full block.
            Second time I LOST MONEY due to waiting for AMD product first fury X now Vega… Could have had 1080ti for 595 new delivered few months ago. Was hoping vega will be max 550 for water one and what 699 price tag that more than 1080ti that is faster !!!!

            Amd Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me 🙁

            BTW i sold my whole x99 platform and gotten Ryzen for 1000 pounds I’w ended up with performance downgrade !!!! But at lest its better than glued shit that x299 is…

          12. Failed you sure you are ok ?
            Now i will explain RX Vega as well.
            With RX Vega you get HBM2, HBCC, Freesync, Vulkan, no bridges for Cross Fire, all of this features are NOT available on NOvideo cards. Do you know the R9 290X was slower then GTX 970 when AMD launch in back then, and today is on GTX 980 level. Same goes for HD7970 GHz edition it was slower then GTX 680, and today is faster…
            All this just proof RX Vega will get way better when the drivers mature and the card is still in beta state, with disabled power efficiency features and some other features like ROPs that are disabled for now…

            This is the real RX Vega TDP, they just don`t have now working efficiency features, die to bugs…

            Vega56 – 165 W,
            Vega64 Air – 220 W,
            Vega64 Water – 265 W.

            If you want now an era of GPU monopoly by the f@ggs of nvidia you are welcome to buy their cards, like most re7arded people did with intel, and this is why AMD was away last 11 years…

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcF36_qMd8M

            And how Zen is downgrade, this is total cr@p you say. I will say one thing about Zen the only place where Zen lose this is the clock speeds, and even then is still superior when it comes to IPC, build quality, Infinity Fabric can scale much on 3600MHz memory, solder under the cap…

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZS2XHcQdqA

          13. Well I had 5820k@4.6 and my Ryzen cant do 4… Shit i had 2×1700 and now i got 1700x all maxed out at 3900-3950. And Yes I’m first person taht managed to get stable 3600mhz on Ryzen on Overclockers.net forums where people still got problems getting 3200 working.

            RX Vega features You mentioned ONLY HBCC is usefull for me.
            I play in 3d and on my oculus rift so:
            Freesync does not support passive 3D
            HBM2 turned out more expensive and not faster than gddr5x …
            Vulkan does not support 3D gaming
            no bridges for Cross Fire guess You missed that AMD is slowly moving away fromCrossfire support ??
            http://www.gamersnexus.net/news-pc/3005-amd-moving-away-from-crossfire-with-rx-vega

            I had 290x mate limited bf4 edition came in broken replaced with another one that packed up also… Black Screen problems 3rd one was ok for 2 years.

            Who care about performance 2 years after card comes out ??/ I change my cards every 18 months. By time Vega will be faster NV will have 2080 volcan on the market or even 2080ti.

            They fallen over 2 years behind NV on performance. At lest Till Hawaii AMD was cheaper option from Fury X that costed MORE THAN 980 TI and was SLOWER when it came out AMD’s pricing got… Retarded so retarded i switched to NV and i had ATI cards since ati rage 128 one after another..

            Tell me WHERE is the CHEAP 4K gaming card that AMD PROMISED ??? If AIO VEGA was 550 max I’d buy one but 699 is taking a piss !!!!
            Thats what im on about :
            530 pounds 1080 AIO faster than Vega RX water takes 100watts less IN STORE NOW CHEAPER:
            https://www.ballicom.co.uk/evga-08g-p4-6188-kr-.p1358520.html?ref=PLA&gclid=CjwKCAjw8IXMBRB8EiwAg9fgMJQEY6aKPRZZ-lt1DWprknDkOs5wlTkxx1iu7bJp0yZxj1y8650-hhoCjO8QAvD_BwE

          14. On overclockers maybe, but i know overclocker in my country that was able to hit 3700MHz on CL 12, so that is other story…
            I don`t hit more then 3200MHz die to the high price of the memory, and i will nit pay more for overpriced memory kit, when they got normal prices, then i will get some nice B-Die kit..

            5820K, or 6900, or even 6950X or 7700K all of them are able to hit beyond 4GHz, and they are still weak on IPC compared to the same speed, and the Infinity Fabric rock all over the intel processors…

            And g sync supports more things ? Free sync is still free and is better compared to G sync i did saw this on tests so 1 point for Radeon..

            Vulkan does not support 3D what the hell ?!?!? What then you call DooM running on Vulkan ?
            That is like to say DirectX does not support 3D pile if bull$s1t…
            Second point for Radeon Vulkan…

            HBCC third point for Radeon..

            The no bridges tech. is not about if Vega support CF or not, is about AMD having innovations, while nvidia still uses SLI they steal from 3Dfx long, long ago…
            Forth point for Radeon over nVIDIA…

            HBM/HBM2
            http://www.anandtech.com/show/9969/jedec-publishes-hbm2-specification

            Not sure if here you troll or don`t know what you are talking HBM smokes GDDR5X even if they make GDDR5XXXXXX it will be slower…
            Other point for Radeon…

            All this are 5 points for the RX Vega for the moment, and how much users are using more then one high end GPU NOT many, so SLI is not an option as well….

            So since ATi Rage you don`t buy ATi/Radeon so this sounds like nV fanboy stuff…
            So i guess the Radeon 9000 series was worse then nVIDIA in your eyes, while Radoen did rape FX5xxx series… Same goes for Radeon X850XT, Radeon HD 3870, Radeon HD4870, Radeon HD5xxx specially HD5970 that raped nvidia bad, later Radeon HD6970 and Radeon HD7970…

            Radoen will be slow yeah, you seems don`t know what the fncck is happening, Raja Koduri is back to AMD, and let me give you little tip he is the brilliant mind behind all insane Radeon cards specially Radeon 9000 series and HD5970….
            This means Navi will be all his architecture and will crush nvidia + AMD now have money from Polaris and now Ryzen, so they will have great engineer + money to build great Radeon..

            Let me tell you a story…

            Radeon HD7970 GHz edition was slower then GTX 680 back then, today guess what is faster by 15%… Same goes for the R9 290X on launch was SLOWER then the junk GTX 970 memory edition (box says 4GB, games and programs says 3GB true story….), today R9 290X is on GTX 980 level..
            So what all this means, well RX Vega now have 10% more performance then GTX 1080 + RX Vega need better drivers, and some things in the card was disabled die to beta state, after some time Vega will be close to GTX 1080TI or on par depend how much work needs on driver level….

            Radeon Fury X WAS SLOWER then 980TI, but WHERE is today faster…..

            I don`t want or need to support nasty and greedy people like intel and nvidia, so i don`t buy them….
            I want YOU to see the x2 videos about monopoly and then to tell me AMD suck, or AMD is bad choice, while they innovate at least, not like nvidia….

          15. Obviously You fucking cant read English so let me get it TO YOU SIMPLE FUCKING WAY:

            1. 3D like freaking stereoscopic 3d Glasses 3D that I’w been using since Phenom II time !!! DOESN NOT SUPPORT DX12 or Vulcan OR Mantle. So NO IT DOES NOT SUPPORT FUCKING 3D

            2. Maybe IPC of x99 platform was lower BUT it clocks 500-700mhs MORE so Ryzen at 4ghz IS SLOWER at single thread and EQUAL at Multi. I know CAUSE IM DOING FUCKING RENDERING DAILY and my ryzen with 2 more cores and 4 threads is 45 seconds faster on 1 hour of rendering. and Slower in gaming. Got REAL USE benchmarks to prove it with screenshots of 5820vs1700x both overclocked to max

            3. Had EVERY FUCKING AMD/ATI card till piece of shit called Fury X came out… So Yes You cant read…

            4. Fury x was slower and more expensive than 980ti and where its now ?? In fucking BIN where that crap belongs too Its fucking 4 year old JUNK now to me.. It is slower than my 980ti in 3d and VR

            5. Well I buy GPUS EVERY 18 months my budget is 600-700 pounds every time. O look yesterday we had 3 1080tis on OCUK BELOW 600 pounds 1 air 1 with block and one with aio. All of those are Cheaper faster and more power efficient than VEGA by miles.

            When AMD delivers Performance on pair with VN DAY ONE im selling NV junk and buying AMD. But last 4 years AMD got SHIT GPU’s on market. For me price does not matter i spend more on my SPARE track car every year that i dont even drive more than 2 times a month.

          16. Thing is 1700x cant hit 4,5 without LN2 and 7700k can hit 5.1 on water so Your benchmark is still shit nowhere near Real life applications

            And actually none gives a Fuck what You think so, I’m testing unofficial pre-beta bioses for Asus on my crosshair 6 motherboard. My Bios flashback instruction video is on official Asus topic for CH6 motherboards.
            And what are You testing ?? Youtube videos and Google ??

            O look my Vega came in yesterday

            https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/95803efbe383c466e7ebf718cd27ed43ee9ffb2f40e232f31b4854679c2f0503.jpg

            Renders videos for my Youtube like a dream.tested on 8 hour long project last night. And I paid for it LESS than AIO Vega costs.

            What sort of Rendering are You doing then ???

          17. The real thing scrub is Ryzen have UNMATCHED price to performance, GREAT build quality soldering and good PCB, Infinity Fabric that scale with faster memory and boost the overall performance, WAY better box cooler, better IPC on same speeds, better TDP……..

            7700K NONE price to performance, worst of all build quality tooth paste instead of soldering, cheap trash PCB that bend/broke under mid range air coolers, NO infinity fabric suck, box cooler from Pentium 3 era, retarded TDP and stove CPU that melts sockets and power cords, 24 pin cable and +12v cable as well….

            I speak things like adored says them or other people that speak the truth, while you are some re7arded fanboy, that speak nonsenses and false “information”, so who are interested in what you have to say monkey, im sure NO ONE, bcuz you suck and bad….
            With what you write above, you think you are some sort of PC/hardware GOD, HAHAHAHA to me you are some UNEDUCATED PEASANT/ CAVEMAN and nothing more…

            Put this sh17 video card in your a$$ hole, where it belong…
            NO HBM2, NO freesync, no HBCC, NO Vulkan, NO fine wine, and go buy Titan Xp you are rich b17ch RIP…..

            Im rendering your mom on bed….

          19. I have links and internet, people there did show things, so i will NOT waste my time to useless benchmarks that shows NOTHING, benchmarks are numbers in air, NOT close to the real world performance, but i guess caveman like you can`t understand that…

            I have 3200MHz kit re7ard, die to NOT willing to pay for overpriced memory, NOT bcuz i can`t i spend my money wisely, not like you dumb monkey…

            I wait for RX Vega to show off to buy some, you have problem with that f@gg ??
            You speak like you are something more then me, while you are some $h1t, and what you have second hand Titan X (not Xp), i bet you have also second hand memory, mobo, cpu and whole your PC, die to been poor as fnck….

            + i will buy Xonar Essence STXII, M2 SSD and other things, to think only to my main performance, and other thing i buy ONLY new things, not like you Gavroche LOL..

            And remove this avatar, bcuz you are ugly as hell fat bag full of $h1ts….

          20. Just quick one from 3dshittymark
            Ryzen: 17341
            x99: 18363

            Same GPU 980ti with same 1500/8000 clock and same drivers. Ryzen @ 3950…. x99 @4500

            And… its SLOWER

          21. YOU are slower in the head fccking INferior/ NOvideo fanboy….

            All people are UPgraiding to AM4 and Zen soon Thread Ripper will wipe the floor with you and your precious junk called intel….

            I love the way you ignore the videos uneducated peasant…

            You are linking same video. I gave You MY IN HOME TESTS PROVING ITS FUCKING SLOWER. You gave me what ?? Where are fucking numbers of x99vsRyzen ??

            Give me numbers showing MORE FPS in games with same GPU with ryzen vs x99.

            There wasted my time for Your stupidity there you go Overclocked ryzwen is slower than overclocked x99 in single and multi thread

            Your link sucks, and is misleading and irellevant ….

          24. Lol
            “I care about having the best card in my rig”
            >1080 Ti
            >Not Titan Xp

            Please boy, pick your battles more wisely.

          25. Sorry Ruski, I should have clarified that the 1080 Ti is the best card to buy since it’s 40% cheaper than the Titan XP and offers 97% of the performance.

          26. Whilst Russian is one of the languages I can speak, I aint no Russian.

            Titan Xp + Water block is between 5 and 11% faster (depending on game and resolution) than the 1080 Ti. So you like being second best and can’t afford a Titan 🙂

          27. Do you have a Titan, Ruski? And who mentioned water blocks? Let’s keep it apples to apples, little bro.

          28. It’s Italian, bozo. Ever heard of a car manufacturer called “Ferrari”? Get back to your three day old Borscht and stale bread, Eurotrash.

          29. Yeah Italy is NOT in Europe, fccck1ng brain dead m0r0n….
            I like american muscle cars, so RIP….

          30. That makes you EUtrash as well, bcuz you are located in EU as well caveman….

            And american muscle cars and Japan super cars are BETTER then the only 2 brands ferrari and lamborghini….

          31. Italian descent, bud. Born in the USA, nationality is Italian. Please start reading books.

          32. Even worse, USA is full of trash, uneducated, dumb, fat and more to come…
            Don`t talk to me to read books 1d1ot, my country did teach whole EU to alphabet you b1tch….

          33. You’re silly! This has been a fun flaming war (and I clearly won, R9 290 peasant) but I think I’m going to go game now on my sweet,sweet 1080 Ti. You should learn to stop talking smack to people with vastly better systems than yours. It just… makes no sense.

          34. Sure you so rat, with your Pentium G re7ard, go buy GTX Titan Xp b1tch, you have “money” scum…

          35. Yes, I have money. And there’s nothing wrong with that except for in the eyes of the poor. I hope you find a way to do better.

          36. You don`t have money for GTX Titan Xp scrub…
            I know your sh1ty system is intel based, that is UNDER my Zen RIP….

          37. Why would I but a $1200 Titan XP when my overclocked 1080 Ti offers nearly identical performance for $500 less? Maybe this is why I have money and you don’t. Perhaps you should let go of the hate and open your ears to learn- then you may too be able to afford a 1080 Ti type card one day.

          38. No bcuz you did say

            “The point is that I don’t give a shyte about Nvidia or AMD”s business practices- I care about having the best card in my rig.”

            So GTX 1080TI is NOT the best compared to GTX Titan Xp, so lol you cut your own words ROFL…

            I will get RX Vega so ?

          39. You’re right- the Titan XP IS the best, period. But for $500 less I have 95% of the performance. So I was wrong- but I still have a massively superior system to you, so how are you justifying your attitude?

            How old are you, by the way?

          40. Ahahah poor pleb.
            At least you admit to being wrong. I can respect at least that from you peasants.

          41. And you system IS? Asked you a few times and you won’t answer… sounds like an AMD tactic!

          42. Mexican taco guy rofl, where is GTX Titan Xp, ooo i forgot you have “the best” in your system, how is the Pentium G going rofl….

          43. Why must I dear Merican?
            I came here to call you out on being an idiot. Mission accomplished.

            Why do you care for my PC parts for silly video games and not about being intellectually obliterated?

          44. So, back to your system specs that seem to have given you a huge Internet pee-pee?

          45. My intellectual superiority gave me this Internet E-Peen 🙂
            The ability to run circles around people like you.

          46. FAIL. Smoke a cheap Russian cig and go to bed 5 feet from your comrade. I’ve got a very expensive, high-powered GPU to enjoy while you drink some cheap vodka and enjoy your poorness. Dosvedanya!

          47. Seems like the poor Pedro got beat up at school. No worries, your papa Juan will work overtime to buy you a GT 1030.

          48. Look mama Maria, I am a big boy now and can buy a GPU to play games all by myself!

            Man If that is your biggest achievement in life…

          49. Nope- not even close to my biggest achievement. But schooling wannabes like yourself with poor-boy systems is a hobby. Enjoy your 1998 tech, Ruski! Did I mention Aorus Xtreme 1080 Ti? Does your country even have a power grid capable of running it, Po-boy?

          50. Well I ain’t Russian, but even if I was… Could you not answer your question by yourself? Its a world power far above Italy and Mexico.

            A 1080 ti uses less power than my GPU:)

          51. Superior what only the GPU, and the rest of the system, you did not say a THING about your “superior” system the hell ???
            + GTA V runs on Very High with R9 290 so ?

            122 years…

          52. Because the Titan Xp is 5-11% faster under water. So its faster.
            Why go 90% of the way and not 100? Poor pleb.

          53. You missed the point. You can’t accurately compare one card “under water” and another that isn’t.

            Still waiting to hear what you own, buddy.

          54. 1080 Ti water vs Titan Xp water is what I did.

            I own a diploma. I dont think you or anyone from your Mexican family got that far 🙂

          55. Yeah yeah, some fascist muppet.
            Why did your stupid family migrate to the US then? To sell tacos?

          56. You do realize you are speaking to an engineer that speaks 6 languages… and can read Italian too :)?

            I was mocking your Murican self otherwise.

      2. You can throw around all the tech terms you want, but my 1080 Ti is twice as fast as the Fury X. Yeah, even without Vulkan or HBM and yeah, even in Doom. Who’s the peasant, here?

      1. Well after EPYC presentation on monday Pascal Titan with full block is on its way to me. Snapped one off forum mate for… 750 quid delivered on warranty few months old since he Upgraded to Xp one.

        FFFUUU AMD and 699

  3. So much for the earlier 400, 500 and $600 price predictions. Seems amd cant disrupt the gpu market like they can the cpu market.

    Tho these prices are probably what youd see in Canada or something.

  4. Everybody getting butthurt over alleged prices. These could be all over the board. It’s not like it’s come from a leaker with a reputable track record. Nearly every past generation from AMD has put it on par or better value vs nVidia, (allbeit with debatably buggy drivers that get ironed out later or higher TDP) why would this be any different?

  5. The rumors could be true, or false. The effect they have is that many people bought products from the competition after reading such things. I saw reports of over 1.100 euros, and all sorts of nonsense.
    The facts are clear:
    1. The 16GB Frontier Edition (air) can be bought for less than $999, and that is a semi-professional board with industrial software certifications for precision and compatibility.
    2. The gaming RX Vega has only half of the HBM of the FE.
    3. RX Vega is not yet officially launched.
    4. Apple promised to offer RX Vega in ther iMac and MacPro machines.
    5. People buy something else because they are told unofficial prices.

    I got my pre-ordered Ryzen 7 1700 at $330 from Newegg, while rumors days before the pre-order opened placed it at $800. I even saw it on Amazon from private sellers at such pre-order prices.

    List of really stupid people:
    1. Someone who pre-orders from an obscure website or a private seller.
    2. Someone who wants to damage AMD and does not list such a product for sale at insane prices.
    3. Someone who believes prices from unofficial sources.

    1. As far as I have heard, the FE Vega does not have certified drivers. AMD makes the FirePro line of graphics card for that.

  6. -Over 1 year late
    -Barely matches competing card
    -More power hungry than competing card
    -More expensive than competing card
    VEGA = D.O.A.

    1. We will see the real prices, when AMD say so, now you and all peasants over the internet can say much cr@p…
      The internet is full of uneducated peasants just like you..

      1. If you’re going to accuse people of being uneducated make sure your grammar is in check first.

        1. Peasant who are you to talk to me no nonsense ?
          Do you know peasant what Cyrillic alphabet is, and who did invent it to teach whole europe, if you don`t then fnck off………

          1. My apologies after reading your second comment I have come to the conclusion that your problem is not that you are uneducated but functionally retarded.

          2. Tell me that in the face, i will make sure to brake most of your bones dirty rat, and trash, now die from cancer…

          3. *break. Seriously, get some education. Your grammar is worse than a kindergarten child.

          4. Go learn what is Cyrillic alphabet, and how did teach all euro-faggs, then come to tell me to get education to the retarded english RIP….

          5. Well no, go learn it yourself first… and learn some grammar while you are at it. Also you can go and learn that AMD are behind Nvidia and probably always will be. good for you though for supporting the crappy underdog.

          6. Go RE read what i did say m0r0n……..

            About AMD go learn some computer history fcccking uneducated peasant…

            ATi was behind nvidia all the time yes, and you uneducated r37ard seems don`t know about Radeon 9000 series specially Radeon 9700, Radeon 9800, later Radeon HD3870, Radeon 4870, Radeon HD5870, HD5970, HD6970, Radeon 7970 ALL OF THEM BEEN BETTER THEN NVIDIA COUNTERPARTS…

            Where is nvidia HBM, Vulkan, why nvidia stull uses bridges ?

            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osSMJRyxG0k

          7. None of that is relevent at the moment is it? what competitor do AMD have against a 1080 or 1080ti? none.
            performance is all that matters, and AMD is waaaay behind.

            Funny you calling everyone a peasant when you are the one with a cheaper less powerful machine.

            gonna block the uneducated troll now. bye.

          8. Yeah, they’ve been behind for a while now; though it seems like yesterday. I’d pin the 290X as their last impressive showing GPU wise.

          9. Why are you defending AMD like your life depends on it or like they pay you for it? I hope you’re not a desperate AMD employee.

          10. “oh dear” ?
            I see only soft hands, and faggs just like you say this type of things..
            Andy the fagg rofl…

          11. It’s a sign of insecurity to laugh at your own comments, which might go someway to explaining your odd behaviour.

      2. Here’s a dumb guy trying to be bright. Haw, haw. Where’d you get that name? Off a Batman chocolate milk carton? Couldn’t be more creative to think up your own so you borrowed one from a kiddie drink?

        1. I get it after raping your mother…
          Dumb are you and your father, you heard me rat ? And what is your name shot bull$hit, of an re7ard`s mind. Go jump from some bridge junk, and don`t talk too much to me, you are way under my level scum…

          1. Same for you as well, i don`t care what some pathetic worm like you have to say, now die from cancer junk…

  7. if this is true then AMD just shot themselves in the head. Really can’t see this being accurate to be honest.

    1. So despite high prices being mentioned in numerous articles, the AMD/Freesync vs Nvidia/Gsync marketing which concluded the AMD cards had to higher priced and the fact that it’s common knowledge that HBM2 is going to be expensive to manufacture, you still have problems believing this is accurate????

      1. Andy the b17ch a$$ hole…
        You don`t have the rights to comment, bcuz you are bran dead scum…

        1. You again? Your spelling gets worse with every comment. Have you even started school yet, are did you just not pay attention when you were there?

          1. At least the emigrants did pay attention to your a$$ hole, bcuz you are f@gg damn…

          2. I assume you meant to say ‘immigrants’. Sheesh, you really are thick as pig shit.

          3. You wish someone would die of cancer because they challenge you over your childish behaviour? What a despicable piece of vermin you are.

        2. Darkside, eh? At least your name implies you’re right. Somewhere spaced out and in a vacuum. Why don’t you get off you’re 455 and get laid so you don’t spout off you’re intelligence. Don’t use you’re hands for an excuse. That only leads to blindness.

        3. No one’s going to take you seriously until you stop acting like a smart-assed 14 year-old with a potty mouth. Try using logic in your posts rather than cotton candy profanity and insults.

      2. Yep, as despite all that AMD would be very silly to price themselves completely out of the GPU market.

        If they have a card that is less powerful than a 1080 yet costs more… then noone would buy it.

        I don’t believe any of it until AMD confirm.
