XFX AMD Radeon VII 16GB HBM2, 1750 MHz Boost, 1801 MHz Peak, 3xDP 1xHDMI Pci-E 3.0

Bought this for my Hackintosh I built about 2 years ago with an i7-8700k Coffee Lake CPU. I mostly use this for rendering video projects from final cut and occasionally gaming on few Mac titles available. It runs like a dream, and I'm able to multi-task while exporting videos! (shadow & rise of tomb raider running almost at full setting, although my monitor was fixed at 1080/60fps so I won't know for sure). Very occasionally the computer froze while gaming to reboot because of the heat, but I suspect I need to add water cooling down the road to address that (as I'm a musician and need my computer to be quieter than using fans to record in my studio). My one complaint was that the metal frame on the Port-side came a little bent so I first couldn't secure both screws to my desktop. I had to flatten it using my screwdriver before it became straight enough to snugly fit in the case, but I suspect that's an isolated issue for me. So I guess with the new Radeon Pro VII announced today, top-end users might prefer that instead, but with an estimated retail price of around $1.8k, maybe some of you can find a compromise here. Overall a very nice card, and especially for Hackintosh users, since it's plug-and-play. Mojave and Catalina runs fine for me, which is an improvement from the previous RT 5700xt I had that needed a bit of clover tweaking before it was recognized.

If you're a creator on a budget and you had close to 700 to throw around, this is a good buy. If you're only gaming on it, it's hard to justify buying this card for yourself. For one, this card is great at multitasking, gaming and streaming, or even gaming and recording this thing can keep up quite well. Pair it up with a really good cpu and it's the bee's knees. Though AMD has EOL'd this card quick and early, I'd suggest if you want to keep longer, watercool it, or find another means of keeping it cool while it works. This bad boy gets TOASTY when it gets slammed with the right workload. It can render high quality frames at what I would say is a decent rate. I returned my first R VII through a scare of EOL, but this one was bought as a gift from someone to myself. New versions of this card go by the name of Radeon Pro VII and feature a bridge, but the pricing for that one is where this card should have been sold. Though mismarketed as a "gamer" card, this is definitely a budget (if you got your hands on it) creator card. Supports both mainstream AMD gaming drivers AND creator drivers. Late side note - I’ve been able to crank out a bit more FPS while tweaking the performance, currently best stable for me is a frequency of 1700-1725 MHz voltage of 980 - 1000 mV as well as a memory frequency of 1100 MHz. Keeps the temps down while gaming. There is some gains to using the included HBCC Memory Segment controller as well, which by my understanding shares system ram along with the HBM, buuuut.... Faster ram could definitely make bigger improvements.

I bought this after it was discontinued for a bit of a discount. It was almost the same price as the 5700 XT. This card easily competes with the high end market. I mainly bought this for use with Linux and video editing. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of NVIDIA with their vender specific features like ray-tracing or physx. The good news is currently not many games support those types of features. Gaming isn't like it used to be and now most games are programed with consoles in mind. Current and future gen consoles are running on AMD based graphics. AMD runs DX12 titles great and Vulkan titles great. It easily competes with the GTX 2080 when those APIs are being used. It isn't as fast as Nvidia when it comes to DX11 based games for whatever reason. The only issues I have is that it is not as easy to overclock. You will think you have it stable and then a day or two later it will lock up in a game. It took me a very long time to finally get a stable overclock. Besides that I think it is a great card for OpenCL based applications and it runs any game I throw at it. I wouldn't say it is a fully capable 4k card, but it will play most games maxed at 4k and if it doesn't I have yet to find a game that doesn't run slow at max settings at 2k resolution.

this is a monster graphics card that under the right conditions and with the right mods can really perform very well. I have mine under an ek waterblock running 2050mhz core/1250mhz hbm2- gpu crushes most games at 1440p without issue. truth be told if you want this level of performance and don't want to buy nvidia this is really your only option. this review is written before the launch of the rtx 2080 super but most likely the rtx 2080 super will be a better value due to a reasonable performance increase for around the same price. also this gpu is really a 1440p card not a 4k card which makes the 16gb vram kinda pointless for anything other than the massive bandwidth 4 stacks of hbm2 provide. I feel this gpu and the 2080 both aren't powerful enough for good 4k gaming. the 2080ti and rtx titan are really the only options available for 4k gaming and even those can struggle with some games to keep 60+fps. as of right now pc hardware has not kept up with games and modern resolutions. I refuse to play games at 4k 50fps the experience is very poor vs 1440p 80fps. most vulkan titles run extremely well on radeon vii rage 2 for instance I can get about the same performance with my radeon vii as you'd expect out of a 2080 ti and games like world war z the radeon vii really shines. you need to determine what your goals are before buying a card but really for good 1440p gaming you have 2 options for new purchases either radeon vii or a 2080 I have both I prefer the radeon vii it outperforms the 2080 at the same clocks. my 2080 is an msi trio it will run 2040mhz core and in most games my radeon vii at 2050mhz outperforms the 2080 and it costed less which is a plus too. be aware not every gpu will clock like mine does. for benchmarking I have o.c.ed to 2125/1275hbm so I got pretty lucky I think relative to most. mind you this is with powerplay mod's and powerlimit set to 50%. I would avoid doing this without watercooling

Overall an excellent GPU at a good price.

Very solid. Worth the money. Very powerfull. CS GO on max - any problems. Using it also for work - AutoCad, Tekla, Open GL Engineering Soft. The main advantage that it can be used for games and professional software, drivers are opened and free. Compare that to Nvidia who want you pay for the drivers only...In my case I need to buy 2 different Nvidia Cards: Pro and gaming card or one from AMD. And it has new interface with higher bus speed. I have 2 xeon processors on my work station with 128 GB ECC ram and that videocard just do the job perfectly.

Hintergrund: ich habe seit Jahren einen Desktop PC, immer wieder aufgewertet oder modernisiert. Jetzt im Berufsleben und weniger Zeit stand der PC immer Zuhause während die meisten Daten auf dem Laptop sind. Ich habe mich dann entschieden den Wechsel von Windows/Hackintosh + MacBook Pro 2015 auf das i9 MacBook Pro 2019 + eGPU zu machen. Zu dem Zeitpunkt dieser Rezension gab es bei MacOS nur AMD Radeon Vega Support, kein Navi. Bei Mac war alles OOB funktionell, egpu angeschlossen, gewartet und der externe Monitor funktionierte sofort. Bei Windows + T2 Chip MacBook musste ich schon lange fummeln, nur spezielle Builds von Windows und Gemoddete Treiber brachten Laptopdisplay und externes unter Windows zum laufen. Nun habe ich das Setup Vollzeit ohne Desktop und bin zufrieden. Die Performance ist besser oder gleichwertig zu einem i7 7700k + GTX 1070. Ich müsste Benchmarks mit meinem Tower kühler machen um die Performance da zu messen, ich vermute der heiße CPU des MacBook ist hier das bottleneck. Versand war schnell und gut. Aktuell und bei Windows würde ich aber wohl auf die neuen High End navi Karten warten oder die 5700XT verwenden.

一般向けではほぼ最強と言っていいVRAM容量を持つRadeonVII これを必要とするゲームがあった… それは…VRChat！ どんなGPUを持ってしてもVRで60fpsを出す事は難しくこのVIIでも出来ない。 だが、驚異のVRAM16GBによって、VRAMが足りないなんて事態には陥らない。 80Tiでいいんじゃ無いかって？ 甘いな！publicに40人集まった時の記録は12GBの消費である！ 意w味w不www 語りはさておき絶対性能は2070だか80相当なので十分快適 普通のゲームならまず使い切る事はない。 VRCは最適化されてないだけかなと。 なおドライバ周りが不安定？っぽい。 殆どのゲームはGeforceに最適化されてるのでその面でも不利ではある。 が！VRAM16GBは最強。自慢しまくれるぞ！

Mainly bought this for work with Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. It's freaky fast when converting my Fujifilm .RAF files .DNG with Lightroom's new Enhance Details feature. My system went from 1 to 2 minutes per image to a several seconds. Additionally, I sometimes play Cities: Skylines, and this card's 16 GB VRAM are incredible at high resolution rendering of large cities without so much as a hiccup.
