    A graphics card listed with hardware device ID 66AF:C1 was spotted in the Final Fantasy XV benchmark. That could very well be the long-discussed Vega 20, which is pending a release late this year....

    If it is real it should be priced under or up to RTX 2070. I do not see any Vega 64 with that price tag. I hope 7nm make prices more realistic and viable for AMD fans. Also I am interested to see improved consumption and thermals.

    $399 and we have a serious contender on our hands

    Any word on if AMD is going to continue pushing HBM with this card or will they be going the gddr6 route now, I'm all for the advancement of HBM but gddr6 seems much more viable in terms of cost.

    Vega 20 is a machine learning card. It doesn't aim gamers.

    To your other point, Vega 64 is cheaper than RTX 2070 in Germany and Vega 56 is much cheaper.

    LOL.
    This is not Vega 20. Hell is it not even Vega 64 as it is way faster than this.
    Also there is no proof. Someone got the bar chart and added a value.

    Damn fake clickbait articles.

    Vega 64 (Nitro, Red Devil) is cheaper than 2070 in UK and is way faster. Even the reference if you buy used is faster assuming you can live with the blower cooler, and chop (reduce) 50mv-75mv from P7 & P6 states, raising the HBM to 1100.
    With those settings it even beats watercooled GTX1080 @ 2190 burning even less power than it

    Vega20 PCI ID's in the Linux kernel are 0x66A0, 0x66A1, 0x66A2, 0x66A3, 0x66A7, and 0x66AF so this does indeed match the actual hardware. That doesn't in any way mean the results are legit though.

    Or it is and it's a vega20 56model. That said full 64chip could have some room to spare

    This, plus if it's a prototype then it's likely not running at the clock speeds of the final product. Could also be someone faked the PCI ID and uploaded results for something completely else. Either way we can't really draw any real conclusions because we don't know what is being tested and how.

    Assuming it isn't faked, that PCI ID is in fact from Vega 20:
    https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Vega-20-RadeonSI-Gallium3D
    AMD's actual developers have basically proved that the ID is
    Also, nobody said this was the successor to specifically the Vega 64. There are several PCI IDs; this is just one of them. For all we know, this could be a mid-range chip or even a Firepro chip of the Vega 20 series.

    I can use Paint.net to generate the same images showing the same ID card beating the RTX2080Ti by X%.
    Is fake. Because they used the ID doesn't mean they bench the card.

    You all realize that Vega20/NAVI is more then likely what Polaris was too Fury. Wasn't a performance improvement but a low power indentical or slightly faster then its predecessor.

    Performance Per Watt card, instead of 300w they can do it at 150w.

    Seems completely plausible that this is what we'd be looking at if indeed the card was benchmarked and this isn't fake.

    Yeah i bet the official site was also hacked where the results can be seen by anyone: http://benchmark.finalfantasyxv.com/result/

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    If it preforms on par with the 2070 it will be a failure. The vega 56 modded matches a stock 2070. But, it doesn't really matter how good it is. They can ask 800-1000 buck for it easy. Why? Because.

    Why are there 2 1080s in the first image with such different result?

    I could see a gaming 7 nm Vega happen if Navi is coming in 2019 H2. It is important to keep a grasp of whatever market space is left to maintain the interest of game developers optimizing games for Radeon cards.

    Yep, same here. Only Blower 2070 is cheaper than Vega 64.
    AMD may see it differently. Financial results are out. Y2Y is better.
    AMD expects 7nm Zen2 to be new rock star. They may just adjust Polaris/Vega price to match nV's if needed. And patiently wait for Navi.

    Back to green and this is why , , my 290x cfx put up a good fight , but not going to wait forever AMD.
