Amd radeon vega frontier runs crysis 3 at an average of 46 fps at 1440p

The Radeon RX Vega are the most anticipated graphics cards of the year for being the premiere in gaming of AMD's new high-performance graphics architecture, while some impatient people get to work with the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition to get an idea of what AMD's most powerful silicon is capable of.

Vega Frontier Edition suffers with Crysis 3 at 1440p

New benchmarks of the AMD Vega Frontier Edition

The Youtuber 'DudeRandom84' has been made with a Vega Frontier Edition and tested it under the demanding Crysis 3 video game at a resolution of 1440p and all adjustments to the maximum with a 2 x MSAA antialiasing. Under these conditions, the AMD professional card has been able to offer an average of 46 FPS with drops to 35 FPS at certain specific times, a performance that is below what is expected from the new Vega architecture that comes with a year of lag and with advanced HBM2 memory which should give you a major advantage over Nvidia's GDDR5X at high resolutions.

The Radeon RX Vega will be announced at SIGGRAPH 2017, these cards are expected to be much more optimized for games, so the performance should be higher than this Vega Frontier that does not have drivers optimized for games. Taking into account the characteristics of the Vega 10 silicon, it should be close to the performance of the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, otherwise it would be a real failure to arrive so late and with the HBM2 memory as the main incentive.
