The AMD Vega GPU is the top Radeon graphics card technology available right now and, as the video card nerds we are, we’ve got all the latest Vega info right here.
The Vega architecture has now been around in consumer form for close to a year now, and it’s fair to say it’s had a bumpy start to life. But with its sterling showing in the Raven Ridge APUs, new mobile cards on the way, and Vega set to appear as AMD's first 7nm product, the architecture's certainly getting around a bit. At launch, however, it was rather a silicon contradiction - the first cards managed to be simultaneously disappointing and completely sell out.

It's that classic AMD 'fine wine' approach where it only gets better over time. And Vega genuinely has - with the most modern game launches it has shown some performance improvements to where it's almost competitive. Damning with faint praise there...

The Vega launch felt classically AMD: it worked hard to create some interesting hardware, with some unique selling points, but it turned out a little too forward-thinking, and not competitive enough right now, to be worth the outlay. There’s also the potential problem that when the forward-thinking side of the Vega tech does become useful this iteration of it will be outdated.
Unfortunately, right now, the AMD RX Vega cards suffer by comparison to their smaller, more efficient, and more powerful Nvidia competition.
