Guys, can you maintain the gpu positions fixed in the charts, no matter which gpu wins? It's easier to read fast when you change a variable for a constant...
Jarrod from Jarrod's Tech did an excellent graph. Easy to read, highlighted nicely, and the colors make sense. ruclips.net/video/CKmExYwcHhY/видео.html
I was about to say, I have no idea what the graphs mean with the different colors. (granted I'm not focusing on the video that much) I felt dumb when you pointed out the different systems, I saw that part and it should of clicked, but it didn't lol.
Fast forward 2 months later, Shadow of the tomb raider used 11gb vram on 2080 ti when RTX is enabled at 1080p. Not sure if it used more since the vram already maxed on that card.
@@PutinIsKing The radeon 7 us actually a server card. Thats why it has that much high bandwith vram. Moreover the card is very fast in compute tasks but not so fast in games.
Even when paused I can't figure out which test is which in the Blender slide. Even the colors in the key at the top are confusing, it makes it look like there is 2 results for each test and they are put on separate graphs? I think? Anyone else confused?
I do not take sides with either competitor but I fell in love with the looks of it. The design is not only so awesome to look at but also more practical from a manufacturing perspective. What someone should attempt is a minimalistic case on this theme that compliments its looks. Linus is right on the cost, they should have released it for a bit less or make a 8GB variant. In any case, we do have a choice. We can opt to be ripped by either Nvidia or AMD.
Yeah the card is sexy, kinda like the b2tf DeLorean of GPUs. Unlike most other cards with the shitty plastic designs that stereotypically resembles someone who wears XL monster drink hoodies and doesn't remember the color of their desk. Titan RTX is classy as well
Here from the future! My Radeon VII has aged beautifully compared to the 2080. 1: I still have enough VRAM to run games at max textures at 1440p (something the 2080 can no longer do with new titles) 2: Ray Tracing on the 20 series ended up being a joke. Most users still.used rasterized lighting do to the hit on performance. 3: My card supports FSR 2 (technically, so can the 2080) which runs much better than DLSS1 and honestly on par with DLSS2. Much happier with my purchase these days seeing that the card has aged like a fine wine in comparison to the 20 series equivalent
I'm planning to upgrade to this card (currently running a 1660 Super), would you recommend it as a viable upgrade? (The card price is around $250 USD). Thanks in advance for your time and attention.
@metalchungus6241 Yes, it is a viable upgrade, and the price you've found it at is very low. Though, honestly, it's sort of more of a collectors card and is starting to show its age in newer games for me. If you were to upgrade, I would highly recommend something newer just so you get more time out of it. Don't get me wrong, I can still run everything at 1440p 60fps max textures, but there is no Ray Tracing and the card is already 4 years old.
How in the world has the Radeon VII aged better than the 2080??? That's not true. I bought a 5700XT when it came out and it beat the Radeon VII for a fraction of the price. It still beats the Radeon VII and costs around $200 used. The 5700XT is around 2070 Super performance, the Radeon VII has around 2060 Super performance. Unless of course what you're doing benefits from its RAM. You really should upgrade, I went for a 3090 for $750. Next year prices will drop even more. Radeon VII is too hot for the little performance it gives compared to cards still a fraction of its price used. I suppose there's no harm in still using it, but I would never recommend anyone buy one today.
@@metalchungus6241 The 5700XT costs around $200 used and vastly outperforms the Radeon VII in gaming. Literally zero reason to buy this card, especially used. Zero reason, you will be left with a card with no warranty, that runs hot, and is a terrible value especially in 2023. I hope you didn't buy one....
Linus, you missed the killer must-have feature. RTX2080 - 8GB - Supports over 450 chrome tabs before memory runs out. Radeon VII - 16GB - Supports over 1000 chrome tabs before memory runs out!! Win!
@@expertojordigg Both are required, technically. Back when I had a lot of stock charts going on (Flash or HTML5 graphing stuff), Chrome (and sometimes my computer) would crash when I hit a certain amount of tabs. It was beneficial to leave them up so that I could quickly flip between them and compare. After jumping from a 2GB card to a 6GB card, I could roughly double the amount. (Probably closer to a triple, but who knows - I was eagle eyeing it.) After the upgrade I could immediately add hundreds more to my saved session without chrome and my computer crashing. System memory was 32GB in both cases. Your GPU is now used to accelerate all sorts of web stuff, including just compositing the page, drawing fonts/characters, etc.; even drawing a white square in the background is likely now handled by the GPU rather than the CPU, at least for many web browsers on some OS's. I'm wrong about the amount of tabs, though. In my own testing, 6GB cards support about 800 before windows gets crazy unstable. In theory 16GB cards could approach the 2000 tab level. At that point Chrome will be gobbling closer to 64GB of system RAM. Just 600-800 tabs already consumes well over 20GB in my experience.
HBM2 and 4 stacks of 4gb gives the user twice the bandwidth no matter how many GB he is using. It's not about how much memory it's about how to double the speed it reads and writes. Like people who want a cpu that clocks 5Gig or ram that clocks 3466GHz. Like people who pay a premium for quad memory. I don't run 4x8GB sticks of ram because I need more than 16GB total memory. It's because quad is faster than dual channel memory. Radeon VII memory: Utube reviewers cover up the advantage of 16GB of HBM2 by talking only about how much ram do up need. Your letting them think for you. A year after Ryzen 6 core cpus launch and Intel has 6/8 core cpus, Utube reviewers mention a 6 core Ryzen stomps an Intel 4 core at gamming if you stream at the same time. Hide the feature by hammering on something else.
The white hawk AMD hasn't had anything real competitive in the GPU market ever since Nvidia released their super cards. The only benefits most of the new AMD cards have is PCIe Gen 4 and more memory (which can be useful, but these gpus still have less raw horsepower than Nvidia's supers. Plus, the Radeon VII was put in end of life only six months after it released.
It has two 8 pin connectors because it barely draws 30 watts from the pci slot. It gets basically all it's power from the connectors. And also gives room for extra power needs from overclocking
It was $699 then went out of stock then taken down then back up still out of stock with $599. Pretty sure it's a bug, although 3rd parties are usually cheaper than the initial fe cards. So we'll see @@Pwnstared
@@AstroKitty16 I infact use high quality thermal paste for my PC builds. Otherwise would fry my components. It was just a reference to the Verge Video with Etienne.

I wonder why? XD Seriously though what an ugly looking card. I know performance is a key value but come on, even Intel sneak peak at X^e Graphics cards look nicer than that 90's looking brick. RTX 2080 Trio in my opinion has to be the best looking card though
@@sway4808 compare it side by side to the rtx 2080 trio. The way the radeon 7 looks is plain, and blocky it's fine if you don't want to show off your computer, but comparing them side by side it just looks hideous compered to the competition . Functionality wise? it seems good enough.
I tweeted them and asked if they would have the 15watt Ryzen with Vega chip and they had a one word response saying "will". So, I'm thinking they will. lol
Nobody really gives a shit about no Ray tracing. Most people prefer getting a stable 60fps or more ..... You make good points on features though. 12GB(or less) of memory on this card would have made more sense to keep costs competitive
@@fancyslimoshady Tanking fps for a huge price increase is not worth the visual improvement RELATIVELY speaking. Puddles will look pretty. Neat. I'm looking at said puddles for less than 1% of the game. I will enjoy an extra 50% fps 100% of the time.
Sure but RTX and DLSS features are still features. They are available options, which are not available in AMD cards. There's no missing features if you get an Nvidia card instead of AMD. Some performance hits, sure but not incompatible. For $700, this card is nothing. 7nm, 0.7nm, 0.00007nm, still doesn't matter for end users. If anything, it's weird how much power it consumes for just 7nm.
Did he say it didn't? I have had both and and Nvidia cards from their recent generations, and re-live videos just look worse at the same bitrate. #Fact
As a video editor, I prefer re-live because it records in a constant frame rate as opposed to shadowplay with variable frame rate. People who use Premiere to do editing know it's a pain with VFR. I hate having to convert the videos to CFR with handbrake because they take so long. While the is a difference in visual quality from the two services, the difference is small.
G Dante You should not express your opinion when you know nothing. You are clearly some fat dude in his grandmas basement who has amd stickers all over the room. Fanboys are the worst. PEACE.
@@GreatCakesable I think it's a decent deal to get RTX 2080 performance for $700. You get futureproofed 16GB of HBM2 and also save yourself $100. It's not that bad of a card...
@@hambopro4221 And when would you start utilizing the 16GB VRAM though? Around 10 - 12 years? I dunno, but something tells me Radeon VII would not be able to keep up with games by that time. They should have limited it to like, 10GB or something. That way, they can sell the card for much cheaper and be a great deal. But now, I'll just stick with 2080.
their CPU is still shit. CPU at same prices as Intel are worse in gaming and even perform similar in workbenches. So then, why get it? Cuz hurr durr some reviewers said Intel killer hurr durr. Well all benchmarks tend to show Intel still winning. Especially at lower resolutions. So unless you game at 4k, you shouldn't buy Ryzen shit. And even then, why settle for less? Same performance at 4k.
I just bought the compute version with 32 gb of HBM2 on ebay for $250. We'll see if I can get it working for machine learning. And maybe I can run Steam on Linux and use it for games. It's interesting that the game version was $700 new, I think the compute version was more like $5000, where the only difference was that double precision arithmetic wasn't gimped, it only has one video out, a double memory version is available, and the drivers don't even support windows (or even most PCs).
It's really quite amazing that their continued insistence on selling people on ram and buffer that you won't utilize in gaming, actually makes it impossible for them to compete on price now. That's a ferociously stupid business decision that required general ignorance from their customer base, and that has finally caught up to them. I don't dislike AMD on the whole but I have always disliked their ability to project themselves as the people's champion while selling snake oil.
@Lolled9991 They're clearly not using their superior architecture to beat Nvidia. Not in gaming, at least. And even in serious workstation loads most are going with Nvidia. There may be some all around edge cases of people who do a lot of both workloads, but there aren't enough people out there with those specific cases to make AMD a threat currently. Hopefully someday they get it together and can compete again in graphics and drive down price, but at this point its hard to justify investing in an AMD card, since If im doing those kinds of workloads I can either A, afford two specialized systems, or B, have a workstation at the office to deal with those other workloads than gaming and if I need to do something on mine at home I can afford the extra time given that its not the primary use of my machine anyways. Idk, its a confusing play by AMD, maybe just trying to get within punching distance, but theyre not there yet, and I'm willing to bet Nvidia, even if you took away their head start of releasing months ago will far and away outsell with just 2080s vs Radeon VII from today forward, and that obviously doesnt include all the other cards in their lineups.
@@LinusTechTips Are you high? AMD's software and drivers are much more reliable than Nvidia's. GeForce experience is trash and only provides stupid "optimisation" that nobody uses + sharing to Facebook/Twitter.... Also two more words. Linux support.
@@LinusTechTips Ok first of. You guys actually read this here. And I just really wanted to write this comment since it sounded like AMD has no alternatives for anything Nvidia does. Like AMD has Advanced Media Framework Encoder as their version of NVENC and actually have something that NVIDIA still doesn't has. Being able to tune/change your color, saturation, contrasdt and so on in the game and in any way you want. I just find it frustrationg to just compare things to NVIDIA "Bulletpoints" and think it is not really representing the actual product if the AMD side of features (even if not superior) isn't even mentioned. Also personally speaking. I had only problems with using H.264 on my 1050 Ti OC + self OC. So it might be cool for the high end but not so much for the lower consumer grade products even while pushed to their outer limits. But still.. Thanks for taking your time replying to my comment. I appreciate that.
In Canada, the RVII cost 929$ across the board for any models while the lowest 2080 RTX is 969$. Basically, the RVII is at 700$ US while the cheapest 2080 is at 730$ US.
The 16 GB of memory may not mean much to gamers, but it means a lot to deep learning researchers, and it is probably the only sub-$2k card with this feature. Meanwhile, the 1080 Ti went from costing $700 to now twice that.
yeah, I had to buy a 970 over a 480 a couple years ago because amd raptr was complete trash but for my next upgrade I went with a vega 56 and was REALLY impressed by AMD drivers
a lot of people do but you get these nvidia paid reviewers like linus who don't even acknowledge the existence of relive or adrenaline and claim ge is the best thing since sliced bread
HaydosaXD you can get the MSI reference one for 1169 AUD and the XFX for 1099, which may only be 100 cheaper than a 2080, but I still see that decent value
I bought one when it came out not knowing anything about it but that it was the the best amd card, well i still have it, its never done me wrong in any game i've played and i dont ever mess with clocks.
I wish they coulda did 12gb of HBM2, but that would limit the memory speeds to 768gb/s instead of 1tb/s. Woulda made it cheaper. Also, xfx is already selling their radeon vii on newegg for $600
the thing is that the vega architecture only performs well with the bandwidth. If they did one with 12gb of HBM2 then it would perform considerably worse, making it probably just something like 10% faster than a Vega64. Not worth it
I have full day job 40hrs/week and I can only buy this card if I will be saving third of my salary for entire year. The prices are just fucking frustrating. Earlier I could buy entire gaming pc within year of savings.
Saboth literally would have cost more for them to do that than not to. If you didn't know, the HBM stacks are integrated on the GPU die itself, and the GPU actually needs all 4 stacks populated with hbm in order to even function, because of the memory bus design. A gpu with 2 hbm stacks would have required a hefty redesign which would have cost a lot for RND, so the cost savings would have been minimal to nonexistent and you'd be releasing a lower capability card for the same price. The reason amd couldn't have designed it for 8gb hbm2 is because it's just a low binning instinct gpu in the first place. Radeon vii is a low cost radeon instinct that didn't bin well, and because instinct is a creator card it needs the 16gb hbm2. Radeon vii is AMD saying fuckit and finding at least some way to recoup the lost profit from the few instinct gpus that didn't bin high enough to make it into pro cards. This was never meant to be a real gaming card or a competitor to the RTX, it's just a stopgap for Navi.
Can you just give us 1 or 2 mins of Review about just for Video Editors who are interested to use this card or RTX 2080 for 4k or 8k video editing? which one is better?
7nm should not really mean anything to a user who is just trying to game. The 7nm GPU just helped the card crank the performance without significant power use increase. Ray Tracing might be something used in the future, but it comes at a premium. This is a very hard choice and will depend on many factors.
@@seventyseven8076 Well AMD fans have no choice but to buy Radeon VII or wait another 8 months for Navi to answer the already 24 month old performance of the GTX 1080 Ti.
I felt for ya at the end of this video! AMD is so close yet so far away.... Anyways, for those of you who want to save a few bucks, the Vega-64 is good enough for MOST AAA games if you buy TWO of them and cross link them! It's been in the Radeon software since Version 17.9.2 where you can PAIR UP two Vega cards! Go on eBay and take the chance. I'm seeing them as low as $260 US ($320 CAN) per card so for $520 US ($640 CAN) you can get all the GPU cores (4096 cores per card) and a total 16 gigs of VRAM for your gaming AND you work-related vlog editing tasks! AND I would definitely think about getting that ultra-widescreen 2.5k display though! it REALLY makes your system enjoyable! Amazon is now selling that LG 34WK500-P 21: 9 Ultrawide Full HD IPS LED 34" Screen LED-LIT 14700510 at 2560 x 1080 pixels with AMD Freesync which would make your gaming and video playback/editing REALLY SWEET! And it's only $270 US ($355 CAN) .
I hate the framing of "Will amd be good enough to lower Nvidia's Prices?" that everyone seems to be doing lately. Why cant it be "Will Amd Finally be competitive in the high end again." The prior implies that their only purpose is to force Nvidia to make GPU's at a reasonable price so that everyone can buy their rgb laced nvidia crack to appease their senseless brand loyalty to their favorite dealer, while the later says hey look I hope this gpu beats whats on the market now so that video card performance continues to tick up instead of stagnating like the 2060-2080 did.
That has been AMD's game for a long time, that is their role. AMD is a fraction of the size of Nvidia, with a fraction of the resources. The fact that they compete at the level they do, at all, is already pretty impressive.
AMD will never win the war against nvidia. Nvidia is too far ahead software wise. You are a gamer ? Shadowplay is absolute must. You are a programmer ? Tensor cores are APSOOOLUUTE MUST . Better optimized drivers and better community support as its 20x times biggeer.
I don't think it's brand loyalty as much as them simply having a better product, and most people only care about that. AMD just dissapoints over and over again. Just like with Vega64, you'd need to be an absolute AMD shill and fanboy to buy it over GTX1080 considering everything. I'd wish AMD stepped up their game just like they did with their Ryzen CPU's, but...I'm ordering RTX2080Ti soon.
@@skuyzy198 I have a Vega 64. My Asus ROG Strix 1080 went into my sons computer. The difference between the 2 is negligible at best, at least in the games we play, were talking under 5 fps, if any difference at all. Some games in DX12 or Vulkan, the Vega actually beats our 1080. Are you thinking of the 1080 ti????
@@skuyzy198 I totally agree that currently and if I'm honest ever since the 900 series Nvidia has had better gpus than AMD in most segments that isn't what I am arguing about. My statement is that I wish people desired AMD to do well as a benefit to the community in general rather than just a means to reduce the price of Nvidia products.
Now's a great time to pick up a GTX 1060 my dude. Huge upgrade from the 7950 and it just took a massive price drop. It's priced almost as low as the 1050 was 6 months ago.
It's kinda funny that people with 0 clue are talking about AMD drivers. 5700 and 5700 XT hadn't issues for months. It was just small period when they were released, and people are still complaining about it, but they never really had those cards in their PCs.
Radeon VII works fine for me, esp with the better drivers now (no more Crashes) - However there's no RayTracing. I've never had the GPU max out on me, and it plays fine with Star Citizen 3.5 / 3.6 - The fans are quiet (I have a an open frame Thermaltake) for most games, and you can adjust the curves (as normal). I think for the Price / Performance is good on this card
Just a suggestion on displaying graphs... I think it would be best to keep the product in question (Radeon VII in this case) displayed at the top of the graph and immediately below it are the other comparison products. This way, the viewer won't need to find where the product being reviewed is for every slide. Even if in this case, the Radeon VII is highlighted, I needed to wander about and pause the video to see the comparison. Having the product always be at the top is a quick way to deliver performance comparison info.
SC2 and LoL are both still DX9 too IIRC. I think the base version of DOTA is too, but the new version uses vulkan when available (and therefore probably something newer).

6:33 Based on GamersNexus' (or rather Buildzoids) video the power delivery on the Vega is overkill. Power delivery is NOT a limiting factor on the Vega VII
AMD isn’t a charity. They don’t care about you. Making the choice to buy them anyways is fanboyish and allows them to get away with NOT being competitive, if they know fanboys will buy it anyways.
AMD fanboys kept buying stuff and AMD is going up. So your assumption is wrong. If the stuff will be terrible, even fanboys will not buy it. In this case, the GPUs are very similar for the same money so its my money gets either Nvidia or AMD which will support competition, not the monopoly.
@@bitkarek No, AMD release competitive things on their CPU side - that's why they're doing so well. Their GPU side has been disappointing. "Wait for polaris" (only really saved through mining) "Wait for vega" "Wait for VII" "Wait for Navi." No, it's not very similar. It uses a lot more power and they essentially released a card that would have been competitive two years ago.
if nobody went with AMD in past years, they would bunkrupt, not come up with Ryzen.If you have 2 companies only and you buy only from the better one, the second one would be gone fast. They would not have money for the development and bye bye.
@@bitkarek What are you even trying to say. AMD happened to survive because they released semi-competitive products. Anemic, but semi-competitive. You don't buy from one company if they've wasted years and money just to keep them afloat enough so that competition exists. You let them die and let anti-trust legislation settle it. You don't reward them for lack of innovation and bad products. AMD has shot themselves in the foot for years.
At least they listened to one thing and uncapped more FP64 performance, now at 1/4th rate rather than 1/8th. Though that also shows that's entirely a software limit and it could have been uncapped to full rate like M150, but ah well. I'll be curious for testing if the iMac Pro is refreshed with a chip like this soon, what its FP64 rate will be, as Apple co-writes the driver.
These are just really low binned M150 machine learning accelerators that AMD launched in what, October of 2018? 7nm dies are expensive. It makes sense to bin this way.
How is the radeon 7 a failure? It offers decent gaming but drags the floor with the 2080ti in professional applications. People just didn't use it for what it was good at.

What someone should attempt is a minimalistic case on this theme that compliments its looks. Linus is right on the cost, they should have released it for a bit less or make a 8GB variant. In any case, we do have a choice. We can opt to be ripped by either Nvidia or AMD.

Here from the future!
My Radeon VII has aged beautifully compared to the 2080.
1: I still have enough VRAM to run games at max textures at 1440p (something the 2080 can no longer do with new titles)
2: Ray Tracing on the 20 series ended up being a joke. Most users still.used rasterized lighting do to the hit on performance.
3: My card supports FSR 2 (technically, so can the 2080) which runs much better than DLSS1 and honestly on par with DLSS2.
Much happier with my purchase these days seeing that the card has aged like a fine wine in comparison to the 20 series equivalent
I'm planning to upgrade to this card (currently running a 1660 Super), would you recommend it as a viable upgrade? (The card price is around $250 USD). Thanks in advance for your time and attention.
@metalchungus6241 Yes, it is a viable upgrade, and the price you've found it at is very low. Though, honestly, it's sort of more of a collectors card and is starting to show its age in newer games for me.
If you were to upgrade, I would highly recommend something newer just so you get more time out of it. Don't get me wrong, I can still run everything at 1440p 60fps max textures, but there is no Ray Tracing and the card is already 4 years old.
@@metalchungus6241careful they tend to randomly die get a 1080 ti over this it beats it
How in the world has the Radeon VII aged better than the 2080??? That's not true. I bought a 5700XT when it came out and it beat the Radeon VII for a fraction of the price. It still beats the Radeon VII and costs around $200 used. The 5700XT is around 2070 Super performance, the Radeon VII has around 2060 Super performance. Unless of course what you're doing benefits from its RAM. You really should upgrade, I went for a 3090 for $750. Next year prices will drop even more. Radeon VII is too hot for the little performance it gives compared to cards still a fraction of its price used. I suppose there's no harm in still using it, but I would never recommend anyone buy one today.
@@metalchungus6241 The 5700XT costs around $200 used and vastly outperforms the Radeon VII in gaming. Literally zero reason to buy this card, especially used.

RTX2080 - 8GB - Supports over 450 chrome tabs before memory runs out.
Radeon VII - 16GB - Supports over 1000 chrome tabs before memory runs out!!
Win!
Isn't that managed by system memory(ram) and not video memory?
could be a joke, but some noobs could really believe you
@@expertojordigg Both are required, technically. Back when I had a lot of stock charts going on (Flash or HTML5 graphing stuff), Chrome (and sometimes my computer) would crash when I hit a certain amount of tabs. It was beneficial to leave them up so that I could quickly flip between them and compare. After jumping from a 2GB card to a 6GB card, I could roughly double the amount. (Probably closer to a triple, but who knows - I was eagle eyeing it.) After the upgrade I could immediately add hundreds more to my saved session without chrome and my computer crashing. System memory was 32GB in both cases.
Your GPU is now used to accelerate all sorts of web stuff, including just compositing the page, drawing fonts/characters, etc.; even drawing a white square in the background is likely now handled by the GPU rather than the CPU, at least for many web browsers on some OS's.
I'm wrong about the amount of tabs, though. In my own testing, 6GB cards support about 800 before windows gets crazy unstable. In theory 16GB cards could approach the 2000 tab level. At that point Chrome will be gobbling closer to 64GB of system RAM. Just 600-800 tabs already consumes well over 20GB in my experience.
HBM2 and 4 stacks of 4gb gives the user twice the bandwidth no matter how many GB he is using. It's not about how much memory it's about how to double the speed it reads and writes. Like people who want a cpu that clocks 5Gig or ram that clocks 3466GHz. Like people who pay a premium for quad memory. I don't run 4x8GB sticks of ram because I need more than 16GB total memory. It's because quad is faster than dual channel memory. Radeon VII memory: Utube reviewers cover up the advantage of 16GB of HBM2 by talking only about how much ram do up need. Your letting them think for you. A year after Ryzen 6 core cpus launch and Intel has 6/8 core cpus, Utube reviewers mention a 6 core Ryzen stomps an Intel 4 core at gamming if you stream at the same time. Hide the feature by hammering on something else.

@Lolled9991 They're clearly not using their superior architecture to beat Nvidia. Not in gaming, at least. And even in serious workstation loads most are going with Nvidia. There may be some all around edge cases of people who do a lot of both workloads, but there aren't enough people out there with those specific cases to make AMD a threat currently. Hopefully someday they get it together and can compete again in graphics and drive down price, but at this point its hard to justify investing in an AMD card, since If im doing those kinds of workloads I can either A, afford two specialized systems, or B, have a workstation at the office to deal with those other workloads than gaming and if I need to do something on mine at home I can afford the extra time given that its not the primary use of my machine anyways. Idk, its a confusing play by AMD, maybe just trying to get within punching distance, but theyre not there yet, and I'm willing to bet Nvidia, even if you took away their head start of releasing months ago will far and away outsell with just 2080s vs Radeon VII from today forward, and that obviously doesnt include all the other cards in their lineups.

Wow, they should have just put in half the memory and dropped the cost $150 and they'd probably have had a hit.
the problem is that vega is extremly memory bandwidth hungry. it wouldnt perform alot better than the vega64 with 8gb of hbm=512gb/s
Saboth literally would have cost more for them to do that than not to. If you didn't know, the HBM stacks are integrated on the GPU die itself, and the GPU actually needs all 4 stacks populated with hbm in order to even function, because of the memory bus design. A gpu with 2 hbm stacks would have required a hefty redesign which would have cost a lot for RND, so the cost savings would have been minimal to nonexistent and you'd be releasing a lower capability card for the same price.
The reason amd couldn't have designed it for 8gb hbm2 is because it's just a low binning instinct gpu in the first place. Radeon vii is a low cost radeon instinct that didn't bin well, and because instinct is a creator card it needs the 16gb hbm2. Radeon vii is AMD saying fuckit and finding at least some way to recoup the lost profit from the few instinct gpus that didn't bin high enough to make it into pro cards. This was never meant to be a real gaming card or a competitor to the RTX, it's just a stopgap for Navi.
Well 16GB's is the only selling factor for professional use. If it was just 8GB then who would have bought it ?
You should be amazed that by doubling the memory bandwith ,the TDP is less than that of of an 8g hbm2 on Vega 64 (because of the 7nm of course )
that’s not possible on VEGA

The prior implies that their only purpose is to force Nvidia to make GPU's at a reasonable price so that everyone can buy their rgb laced nvidia crack to appease their senseless brand loyalty to their favorite dealer, while the later says hey look I hope this gpu beats whats on the market now so that video card performance continues to tick up instead of stagnating like the 2060-2080 did.
That has been AMD's game for a long time, that is their role. AMD is a fraction of the size of Nvidia, with a fraction of the resources. The fact that they compete at the level they do, at all, is already pretty impressive.
AMD will never win the war against nvidia. Nvidia is too far ahead software wise. You are a gamer ? Shadowplay is absolute must. You are a programmer ? Tensor cores are APSOOOLUUTE MUST . Better optimized drivers and better community support as its 20x times biggeer.
I don't think it's brand loyalty as much as them simply having a better product, and most people only care about that. AMD just dissapoints over and over again. Just like with Vega64, you'd need to be an absolute AMD shill and fanboy to buy it over GTX1080 considering everything.
I'd wish AMD stepped up their game just like they did with their Ryzen CPU's, but...I'm ordering RTX2080Ti soon.
@@skuyzy198 I have a Vega 64. My Asus ROG Strix 1080 went into my sons computer. The difference between the 2 is negligible at best, at least in the games we play, were talking under 5 fps, if any difference at all. Some games in DX12 or Vulkan, the Vega actually beats our 1080. Are you thinking of the 1080 ti????
@@skuyzy198 I totally agree that currently and if I'm honest ever since the 900 series Nvidia has had better gpus than AMD in most segments that isn't what I am arguing about. My statement is that I wish people desired AMD to do well as a benefit to the community in general rather than just a means to reduce the price of Nvidia products.
NO RILEYS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO
This card is sweetspot between productivity and gaming.
Maybe we should wait for driver updates.
still have my Radeon HD 7950. 😂
still have my Radeon HD 6370M
280x here
its still a beast tbh
i have two still kicking in crossfire in my second pc
Now's a great time to pick up a GTX 1060 my dude. Huge upgrade from the 7950 and it just took a massive price drop. It's priced almost as low as the 1050 was 6 months ago.
Except the 2080 is still $100 more than the Radeon VII...
depends on which version, the sick looking rgb tricked out ones are, but the standard aren't
The rtx founder cards are much cheaper compared to other companies like gigabyte
Joshua Johnson Not it’s not
Joshua Johnson raedon vii can be found for 550$
Water sheep’s Child So can the 2080

There's a hole in your left cooling fan!
doesnt make the game better
@@loc1123 it does: more players means less waiting time!
@@loc1123 it's already a really nice game :#, atleast the planes are, idk about the tanks, but the plane's are extremely realistic.
@@mataskart9894 tanks are great, super realistic, trust me ))
0:22 this entire scene is priceless
Indeed it is.
Ah! Screw it. I'm getting an Rx 5700XT.
Wise choice bro
@@radityabagus426 nt a wise choice as it is plague with driver issues. Imma get the rtx2070 super instead with rtx and also dlss enabled
@@potatoking9945 up to you, juat sayin my thought
It's kinda funny that people with 0 clue are talking about AMD drivers. 5700 and 5700 XT hadn't issues for months. It was just small period when they were released, and people are still complaining about it, but they never really had those cards in their PCs.
Larine really dude 1070 to a 5700xt I know 5700xt that is a good card but 1070 is still a capable card in 2020
Radeon VII works fine for me, esp with the better drivers now (no more Crashes) - However there's no RayTracing. I've never had the GPU max out on me, and it plays fine with Star Citizen 3.5 / 3.6 - The fans are quiet (I have a an open frame Thermaltake) for most games, and you can adjust the curves (as normal). I think for the Price / Performance is good on this card
I’m Still playing on the “NEW” Intel HD 4000
Get 1050 ti
Adam's Tricks i’m kidding, i have an Rtx 2070 with an AMD Ryzen 2700x
I'll sell my GTX 1050 Ti SC for $90+ shipping
PriGO FCD weird flex?
@@liquidrime i feel that now you are better then me
Quite the power house in OpenCL otherwise just another 2080 as expected.
Probably more staying power but thats it.
Yeah but it costs 400 dollars less
@@cyberbitzz8178 It does not? The 2080ti costs over 1k. The normal 2080 is at the same Range.
Omg a warthunder sponsor!!!! Linus ily! That is incredible to see a company like that reach out to you.
Just a suggestion on displaying graphs... I think it would be best to keep the product in question (Radeon VII in this case) displayed at the top of the graph and immediately below it are the other comparison products. This way, the viewer won't need to find where the product being reviewed is for every slide. Even if in this case, the Radeon VII is highlighted, I needed to wander about and pause the video to see the comparison. Having the product always be at the top is a quick way to deliver performance comparison info.
You probably want to say
"Sleepers by day, content makers by night" xd
Really didn't expect a war thunder ad, that's pretty cool.
Funny how he's comparing performance in all these modern DirectX 11 and 12 games and CSGO is sitting there still on DirectX 9.0c lol.
just valve things
SC2 and LoL are both still DX9 too IIRC. I think the base version of DOTA is too, but the new version uses vulkan when available (and therefore probably something newer).
0:20 Seriously though, I listen with headphones all the time. You guys, and everyone else, on videos, live streams, WAN shows- whatever the hell those are, are TOTALLY good! It doesn't hurt in the slightest. In fact, I use headphones so that random loudness doesn't bother my roommates via speakers.
How is this not a meme?
legit watched Riley flipping out like 5 times xD

@@DimitriosChannel ya need to tell him that
They can get HASH rates over 100MH/s! A beast 2 years ago and a performance workhorse today that beats the 1080Ti at mining.
6:33 Based on GamersNexus' (or rather Buildzoids) video the power delivery on the Vega is overkill. Power delivery is NOT a limiting factor on the Vega VII
Actually it could be but only in ln2 scenarios
5:18 Linus loves hitting/dropping stuff.
I would buy AMD anyway just because i want to support them to get more competetive.
AMD isn’t a charity. They don’t care about you. Making the choice to buy them anyways is fanboyish and allows them to get away with NOT being competitive, if they know fanboys will buy it anyways.
AMD fanboys kept buying stuff and AMD is going up. So your assumption is wrong. If the stuff will be terrible, even fanboys will not buy it. In this case, the GPUs are very similar for the same money so its my money gets either Nvidia or AMD which will support competition, not the monopoly.
@@bitkarek No, AMD release competitive things on their CPU side - that's why they're doing so well. Their GPU side has been disappointing. "Wait for polaris" (only really saved through mining) "Wait for vega" "Wait for VII" "Wait for Navi." No, it's not very similar. It uses a lot more power and they essentially released a card that would have been competitive two years ago.
if nobody went with AMD in past years, they would bunkrupt, not come up with Ryzen.If you have 2 companies only and you buy only from the better one, the second one would be gone fast. They would not have money for the development and bye bye.
@@bitkarek What are you even trying to say. AMD happened to survive because they released semi-competitive products. Anemic, but semi-competitive. You don't buy from one company if they've wasted years and money just to keep them afloat enough so that competition exists. You let them die and let anti-trust legislation settle it. You don't reward them for lack of innovation and bad products. AMD has shot themselves in the foot for years.

Man, this Gold will relevant for many years to come
At least they listened to one thing and uncapped more FP64 performance, now at 1/4th rate rather than 1/8th. Though that also shows that's entirely a software limit and it could have been uncapped to full rate like M150, but ah well. I'll be curious for testing if the iMac Pro is refreshed with a chip like this soon, what its FP64 rate will be, as Apple co-writes the driver.
This thing should be priced 100$ less THAT would make instantly competitive
Meh, it's just the reference card, wait for the partner boards
They aren't making any $$$ off it eves as it is, what the hell???
They probably will not be able to make enough profit from that, especially selling at high end, which is a small market space
These are just really low binned M150 machine learning accelerators that AMD launched in what, October of 2018?
7nm dies are expensive. It makes sense to bin this way.
theyre not making very many of these... literally Europe is getting less than a thousand as of today .... its limited for reasons
I started watching this video and the subtitles were in Hindi.
...I don't ever remember turning that on.
How is the radeon 7 a failure? It offers decent gaming but drags the floor with the 2080ti in professional applications. People just didn't use it for what it was good at. The radeon 7 and vega gpus have always been as close to a workstation gpu as you could get on a budget.
I think i already commented here
