AMD BLACK FRIDAY: MASSIVE DISCOUNTS ON VEGA & RX PLUS RX 590 IS HERE & UPTO THREE GAMES FREE !!!

[Nexus18]

Yup seems I will have to upgrade my CPU + mobo + RAM in order to support vega 56/newer GPUs Not much choice though as I've been having terrible issues with my setup lately.

Probably just going to get this, good enough for my needs and should be pretty future proof.



Currently coming out at £300, hopefully be bit cheaper come this Friday though.....

Unfortunately OCUK are dearer by quite a bit for the CPU and mobo compared to other places.

No epic bundle deal this year @Gibbo? Seen the citizen system which looks good but I don't need the PSU, drives or the OS

Thats basically the system I have except I've got 16gb of ram as opposed to 8gb. I can get 4.2 on all cores ( I think), and 3.2 ot of the ram, but it runs so well I don't even bother to overclock, heresy, I know but true.

VEGA 64 less than 10 left!!!!

 

[GothicGhost]

I will take one Wednesday

They will be sold out, so the price will be higher then, this is your last chance in the short term to grab one at deal price.
4 left!

Well I hesitated on the 56 and now I regret doing so

Will you be having the same price again mid December?

The pound will determine that, we pre-purchased dollars at 1.31 to pay for that deal stock, only way we could get ourselves to £299 and as we only had 5% margin, the new 1.28 rate makes that impossible. We shall be monitor fedex and that will determine our selling price for when new batch lands. Worse case I suspect we will still do £299 but on a much lesser amount at Boxing Day, because if we sell a load at £299 with no margin, then of course we need to limit quantity more, so that we sell more at regular pricing to average the margin/profit made across the inventory.

3 Vega 64 left!

 

[YouDontSurf]

Thank you for the information! Really appreciate it.

 

[michow]

Are you expecting stock of both 56 and 64 ASUS cards next week or just 64?

 

[doodah]

He definitely said 1000 more units of the V56 incoming so if you saw more stock of the 64s also incoming, should be both .

Thanks but I will have to buy something else then on blackfriday.
Hopfully lots of deals but if not I will wait a little longer.

So Vega 56 stock expected this week? Just timing the sale of my 580...

 

[Gibbo]

People need to read my previous post:

Vega 56, more due middle December!
Vega 64, potentially a small amount this week, then more end of December.

Both lines now sold out, deal has ended, snooze you lose and all that, we may do a repeat on Friday on V64 but use the TODAY ONLY function.
Vega 56 will depend on exchange rates and a repeat will be timed around XMAS period.

Absolutely. The undervolting guide in there will serve you well.

That's the vega 64 guide but still relevant.

For other guides online have a look here https://www.google.com/search?rls=c...wiz.......0i71j0i22i30j0i22i10i30.xL6w4DYNTjM

I actually used youtube to undervolt my own 56. Can't remember where though :/


Here's the AMD Chill info. Every vega user needs to use this. So handy.

Good Man Cheers!

Im tempted at the moment to upgrade from my 290x bit then I remember life and all that.

 

[EdwardTobia]

Got my Vega 64 Nitro+ up and running thanks Gibbo!

One question (probably me being stupid), but I cant see any markings on the BIOS switch so not sure which position sets the performance bios? I've flicked the switch but couldn't really notice any difference between the two and clock speeds are reported the same between both using GPU-Z?

Someone please help settle my confused brain lol

I am currently using a RX580 on a Gigabyte Z87X-D3H (so older than a Z97X), also on Windows 10 1803, but worked with 1709 as well with no issues, my 56 arrives tomorrow. On the basis that the RX580 is fine, I was hoping it wouldn't be an issue as my mobo is PCI3.0 and isn't it only PCI2.0 boards that have the issue?

Just to reply to my own post. My card arrived today, it installed with no trouble on the above motherboard and OS and is running fine with no apparent issues (no coil whine). Now to the tweaking when I get chance

For reference this is the Sapphire Pulse 56 Vega.

PS. I got 3 bags of Haribo. Result!
