  • I purchased the Mafia remake some time this year and had to realize that it can't run that game at decent framerates. I don't necessarily need 1440p at 100+ fps, but somewhat stable at 60 would be good. I decided to put the game on my pile of shame until I have a new GPU. Even the 7900 GRE will on average be at least 3x faster than Vega 64.

    Vega has served me very well though and I don't regret building a 500€ custom loop around the 400€ card back in 2017.

  • I'm very much an AMD guy and need to replace my Vega 56 asap. I'd still love for Intel to deliver a good product with the A770's successor. I don't wish that company well in general, but we absolutely need more competition for nVidia. And we can't just look at the high end segment.

  • I compared my Vega 56 with the RX 7900 GRE, which would be a 2.5x to 3x performance upgrade. I'd imagine the RX 580 to B580 swap would be in the same ballpark.

    Looking at Vega's release reviews though, it was 40% faster than the RX 580. I assume your gains would be higher than 200%.

  • Global users can unlock Xiaomi phones, but have to jump through more hoops and deal with restrictions. For example, there now seems to be a daily limit on how many devices their server accepts to unlock. Took me three tries to be successful in the "first come, first serve" line.

    Afaik, Chinese users are now dependent on paid services to unlock their phonew for them. How they get around the official restrictions? I don't know.
