The card features 8 gb of hbm2 memory across a 2048 bit wide memory interface. 2560 x 1440 again sapphire s nitro rx vega 56 8g finds itself in distinguished company through our benchmark suite. The radeon rx vega 56 features 56 of the 64 next generation compute units ngcus present on the vega 10 silicon which works out to a stream processor count of 3 584. There is no de facto winner but rather trends that change.
I upgraded from a rx 580 to this sapphire vega 56 on a 1920x1200 monitor. This proportionately lowers the tmu count to 224. Unfortunately it s also difficult to find as the company. The cooler is not necessarily good enough for vega 64 but it definitely works with vega 56.
Sapphire put a lot of effort into getting radeon rx vega 64 right even as its competition struggled with vega 10.

Step up to next generation of immersive gaming and lose yourself in the greatest high end gaming and virtual reality experiences.
The nitro card is well built cool quiet and fast. Was able to under volt stage 7 to 1050 with a 1605 clock speed. As far as we ve seen it s the best cooled rx vega 56 out there. Once tuned i was able to run ultra graphics on division 2 and it looks beautiful.
Wattage was reduced to max of 152w and in games is averaging 92w 120w.
