AMD Radeon VII reaches ‘end of life’

Radeon VII to begin with was meant to be a "pipe cleaner" for TSMC 7nm. It wasn't even supposed to be released for consumer market. AMD simply discontinued gaming vega as it was very low margin and is a worse offer compared to navi. They will continue to sell it as a workstation card (radeon instinct mi60) with much higher margins and on a market where it doesn't suck completely.

AMDUnboxed at it again

I actually got this kit in particular to run at 3200MHz CL15 by cranking the voltage just to 1.425

Runs great with my OC'd 2600 @ 3.9 GHz with a hyper 212 on a B450M asrock

Are you retarded? They tested vega VII before super was even leaked.

Oh sorry, for some reason I read it as 5700 XT

lolwut?

Did you expect AMD to continue ramping chips that noone will every buy?

I mean, non-reference cards with decent cooling aren't even out yet but 5700 XT is already tied with vega VII.

Will be interesting to see what the non-reference cards do. 5700XT can go to 2.1Ghz+ with proper cooling it seems.

Meanwhile my 2080ti is aging like fine wine auto uv uc oc
Rip Vega shit I had a 56 hated it

Thats okay,
Nobody expects Nvidia shills to be completely literate. Moving from Hindi to English is difficult.

Did you even UV and OC it? I got mine to 1150mV @ 1500 MHz. That's ~90% RTX 2070 performance right there.

Lol. Retards.

are they gonna release a MI50/60 successor?

People bother with Radeon cards anymore? The 2070 Super costs half as much as the 1080ti did and delivers better performance, Nvidia is just awesome. AMD for the processor, Nvidia for the GPU, that's how it goes now.

I don't give a fuck. I can utilize the 16GB of RAM in large ass data sets for scientific computing and 4k gaming. If I'm not going to be playing at 4k, I can do 240hz@1080p. The 5700XT can't do any of this, nor can any Nvidia card unless I spend $1000+.

I'll take the bait
>The 2070 Super costs half as much as the 1080ti did
The keyword here is "did". 1080ti right now costs less.
>and delivers better performance
It doesn't, 1080 ti performs better.
>Nvidia is just awesome.
It's not really, unless you want to tinker with shitty drivers and tolerate crashes and such.
>People bother with Radeon cards
Why not? $400 is too expensive, but when prices go down 5700 XT will be a no-brainer. Cheaper than 1080 ti, performs about same, but has amazing sharpening and anti-lag, also will actually be stable. That's a great card. Though I think I'll wait for hi-end navi as that would be the first real card to handle 4k. Novideo can't compete with their blurry gay DLSS shit.

lmao your whole post stinks of stupid.
Navi is unironically a fantastic product even with the pricy cost per die size. A pitcarn/polaris die is competing with behemoth Nvidia dies and Nvidia is not slated to even get to 7nm this year.

It was the only interesting card they had.. jesus.

R7 was an obvious stop gap until navi. Big navi is next year so meh.

clean your room

5700XT x2 GPU????!!!!!

No multichip navi, it will be a bigger chip with rdna2 arch. Similar shit will be shipping in next gen consoles

It was actually quite a good card for a great pricepoint. It was even better if you were doing workstation or heavy compute workloads, but even if you weren't it was a gaming card that performed at GTX 2080 levels generally, for cheaper. No, it didn't take the crown from the Ti which also cost near double its price, but who cares.

I'm hoping this means there will be a Nav 5800 / 5900 XT series, one of which will at least have 16GB of RAM - GDDR6 this time and a cheaper overall card will be a reasonable follow up in everything except for the very specific workloads that HBM benefit significant. However, if they EOL the VII without having a 16GB follow up somehow released soon, that is unacceptable crap.

Well when ever I decide to install and use this card it'll be good enough for the games and the occasional mining I do. I just need to get a decent free sync monitor and a non shit cpu first.

What year are you in?

Instinct workstation cards expected on Q1 next year but consumer cards might be around mid year around this time.

Why can't AMD make a single card that beats or matches the RTX 2080ti? Just one card with tons of shaders and optimizations with a decent cooler? They don't even have to charge $600 they can charge the same price as 2080ti or similar. Why do only prefer to crap out essentially mid range cards? Never any high end ones that match or beat Nvidia's flagship card. All these review fags and tech Bros simply buy the most expensive card they can which is Nvidia and so Nvidia always gets shown off more and all the Fortnite playing normies all follow suit to get Nvidia cards for their RGB gayming PC.

AMD and Nvidia CEO's are family

They're working together to price fix the market

AMD keeps low end + cpu, nvidia gets high end

Do people finally believe me now when I say the VII was a paper launch?

>Big navi is next year so meh.
It might be Q4 this year tho

>AMD shows price on new cards
>Nvidia releases super and shows prices
>AMD undercuts it while giving far more performance than it's price equivalent
>Nvidia's left swinging it's dick in the wind while investors roast leather jacket man
Yea no don't think so.

Paper launch lmao. It was just salvaging MI50s to stall until Navi. It was never intended to be a longterm product.

RTG has limited budget vs Nvidia, they can't tapeout 4 chips at once. Unexpectedly RDNA fixed the shortcomings of GCN, a 64 CU chip would beat 2080ti. So in the end Raja did a good work

Navi 20 tapeout should be this year but it has to be validated which will take some time

Big Navi will change EVERYTHING

>paper launch
Paper launch means consumers actually can't buy it at all, but you could buy the vega 7 and you still can. It was literally to use their left over work station cards til they could get navi out and so they could get bragging rights on "the first to a 7nm gpu" at every press conference they have.

VII was just a nice way to grab some hype money.

OH NONONONO

gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2070-Super-vs-AMD-RX-5700-XT/4048vs4045

Nope, paper launch means it's almost impossible, not impossible. Just like the Vega 7 was, at release it was impossible for a non-reviewer to get one, big major shops in cities with millions of people only had a few hundred in stock, etc.

First navi 10 tapeout was bugged, they had to release something because waiting 6 months is too long a time for investors. 16gb of HBM2 is expensive i doubt in the end they made much money over it.

>It was just salvaging MI50s to stall until Navi.
>It was never intended to be a longterm product.
That's literally why it's a paper launch, to look good on paper, not to actually do anything.

4K gaming doesn't even need 8GB VRAM at this point.

thats not what paper launch means you fucking retard, a paper launch is when you launch a product but you're only launching it on paper and not actually making any/enough

too busy playing games

RTX2060Super was a paper launch.

user pls im very thin skinned

Not surprised. These were just 60 compute unit rejected Instinct dies repurposed for consumers. Honestly the fact that this card even exists at all is kind of cool because we had been hearing for months that AMD would not be releasing a 7nm gaming graphics card until Navi. Radeon VII was a nice surprise even if it was just a short lived "flagship."
My understanding is that the GCN architecture couldn't scale past 64 compute units without significant reworking. This is how you see Vega 56 occasionally compete with Vega 64 when the 56 gets BIOS flashed to allow for faster memory speeds.

Sad thing is that 1660ti will outsell both 5700 and 5700xt combined.

The fact that you even placed a order shows how big of a brainlet you are.

sorry :(

to late..

The workstation benchmarks were too good at the price point for me to pass up. But the one I got had a fan that clicked and the drivers blew a fat one so bye bye

From what I heard. Radeon VII wasn't even supposed to exist. The head of Radeon at the time even got kicked from his position due to that.

t. S[]Y

Well that sucks I just fucking got a VII

Well, it's a fucking steal for a compute card, but for gayming? lmoa why didn't you get Navi?

Nah he retired, probably cashed out nicely too. But yes, wccftech reported a rumor saying that rayfield came up with it, sold it at a loss, and wasnt too interested in his job. The rumor was probably true because they correctly reported the product name "Radeon VII" months before it was known

>This is how you see Vega 56 occasionally compete with Vega 64 when the 56 gets BIOS flashed to allow for faster memory speeds.

While the first part is true the reason why the vega 56 can keep up is because scaling is imperfect. Even nvidia has problems despite historically having better scheduling/warp saturation. The 2080ti has like 40% more shaders but 15-20% more performance than the 2080. Given it also typically clocks in a little lower too to tdp, so maybe 25% in good scenarios
