Sapphire Pulse Radeon Vega 56

The Sapphire Pulse Radeon Vega 56 is a new customized version that makes use of the Vega 56 graphics core, consisting of 3, 584 stream processors, 192 TMUs and 64 ROPs, to offer great performance, this core is mounted on a custom PCB that has a size very similar to the one used in the Radeon Fury, since both make use of HBM memory so they are quite similar. An aluminum finned heatsink is placed on the PCB and is supported by two 100mm fans to generate the necessary air flow to maintain good operating temperatures.

If we go into more technical details we see that the graphic core of this Sapphire Pulse Radeon Vega 56 works at a speed of 1208 MHz that goes up to 1512 MHz in turbo mode to give a boost to its performance when possible. As for the memory, it has 8 GB HBM2 at a reference frequency of 800 MHz, which translates into a bandwidth of 409 GB / s.
