ASUS ROG Strix RX Vega 64 and 56 OC Cards Incoming

After months of delays, ASUS is finally unveiling its ROG Strix RX Vega 56 and 64 OC cards. In fact, we first expected the cards back in September. The ASUS ROG Strix RX Vega 56 and 64 OC 8GB Editions both have official product pages now, meaning we’re one step closer to the two graphics cards coming to market. The pair both sport triple-fan cooling solutions and require two 8-pin PCIe connectors. In addition, the cards support bridgeless mGPU (aka CrossFire) and FreeSync technology.

Check out our review of the ASUS RoG STrix Vega 64 here.

The following specifications are gleaned from ASUS’ product pages for the two cards. However, neither page lists clock speeds, so we’re in the dark regarding their overclocking capabilities.
