RX Vega might be better than we think! At least in DX12 at 4k.

AMDs DX12 BF1 scores for Fury X and RX Vega

Estimate RX Vega's performance using the Fury X scores.

1080p -> 131/104 ~ 1.2596

1440p -> 98/81 ~ 1.2099

4k -> 55/41 ~ 1.3414

Here is review of 1080ftw2 with DX12 in BF1

---------------------------------------------
1080p
-----------------------------------------------

Fury X = 116 fps

Ref 1080 = 145 fps

FTW2 1080 = 147 fps

1080ti = 161 fps

RX Vega ~ 1.2596 * 116 = 146.1 fps

Winner - Tie


----------------------------------------------
1440p
------------------------------------------------

Fury X = 90 fps

Ref 1080 = 100 fps

FTW2 1080 = 106 fps

1080ti = 131 fps

RX Vega ~ 1.2099 * 90 = 108.9 fps

Winner - Tie

----------------------------------------------------
4k
------------------------------------------------------

Fury X = 49 fps

Ref 1080 = 55 fps

FTW2 1080 = 57 fps

1080ti = 73 fps

RX Vega ~ 1.3414 * 49 = 65.7 fps

Winner - RX Vega by 15.2%!?

---------------------------------------------------


Note that BF1 DX12 is a very good title for amd, and that should be taken into consideration. AMD obviously picked this title for a reason. The Fury X is fighting above its weight class here. So, it might be more accurate to say that it's better at DX12 4k, than we thought.

I tried to find some relatively new, 2017, DX11 : DX12 comparisons for nvidia, but I couldn't find anything.

If the lowest Vega sells for the same price of a 1070 and performs like a 1080, it's a winner.

bit late to the party, maybe, but I think I'm going to be happy with Vega 64 + Freesync @ 1440p
