Don't worry about it everyone will say the same when 7nm comes out as wellI knew I shouldve held off on buying the Powercolour a few weeks back, great deals on the Vega, gutted I didn't wait
Having owned both cards, that's a decent upgrade and today at a nice price.
Vega 56 is still much closer to the 1070 though isn't it? So for an extra £30 it seems like a no brainer.

Tempted with the Vega64 , since I understand it's the only one that will offer any improvement over my current MSI 980ti Gaming. Not sure by how much though? Gaming at 3440x1440 @ 60hz and on Rift.
You can expect 35 to 40%, Vega 64 is ahead of the GTX 1080 specially on latest games, don't know how it will do on VR thouhg as I don't own any, steamvr test gives +13000 score or so.

Isn't the GTX980TI closer to a GTX1070?? It might be worth waiting for a faster card IMHO.
In some games its very close to a GTX1070 and others not so much.

My Bios moded overclocked 980ti was faster than stock 1070
1525mhz on core NO downclocking and no power limit heheHate that pascal cant be bios moded :/
To put it in perspective, your 980ti is about on par with a 1070, the V56 is on par with a 1070ti, and the V64 is on par with a 1080.
So it's basically the equivalent of a 1070 - 1080 upgrade, for £400, factor in ~200 for your 980ti and that's essentially £200 for the upgrade.

Yeah,the GTX980TI cards were good overclockers too from what I gather.

I brought the Nitro+ 64 a few weeks ago from OCuk, and paid £490 for it. I am still within my return period, and the box is unopened. Do you think OCuk might refund me the difference, instead of me returning the £490 card and then buying it for £400?

they ware good cause no crap limits like on pascal cards. Pascals would overclock great if You could cut crappy TDP/voltage limits out !!! Fury X compared to 980ti was junk taht costed same lol.
@Gibbo that Vega 56 deal is so good that I would like one even tho i got titan haha. First time I see them as good cards for the money
Maybe grab code for Division too off someone was planning 2 buy it anyway hehe.

Man that Vega 64 deal is tempting, even though I have a 1070ti (suits my freesync monitor better).
Anyone know how how a 64 does with World of Tanks at 1440p? Struggling to find benchmarks. Brain is telling me it's not going to be any different, save your pennies.

How do I get the games? I ordered the VEGA 64 but saw no option for the games. Are they e-mailed to me?
