Dishonored two, Witcher 3, Dawn of War III, DiRT 4

Dishonored two

Unlike Mass Effect Andromeda, we've plant that in the past AMD's not super competitive in Dishonored 2. We certainly encounter that here nosotros comparison Vega 56 and the GTX 1070 at 1080p and 4K. Looking to the 1440p results the GTX 1070 was xiv% faster and that'due south quite a margin, more crucially whereas the 1070 average well over 60 fps, Vega fell short of the desired frame rate.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Looking back to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt nosotros see that Vega is competitive in this championship but at the aforementioned time it'south not really beating the much older GTX 1070 either. It edged ahead at 1080p and 4K just the results won't really wow anyone. Meanwhile at 1440p Veag 56 was a few frames faster merely over again doesn't really offer anything new at the $400 price point.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Iii

The Dawn of War 3 results are very much a mixed bag and nosotros see that hither when looking at 1080p and then 4K. The Radeon GPU was slightly slower at 1080p while information technology pulled into the lead at 4K. Quite shockingly though information technology puts fourth by far its all-time outcome at 1440p where it matched the GTX 1080. This is a somewhat inexplainable results but having re-tested twice we was faced with the same disruptive results. Not sure what'due south going on here but we're keen to look into information technology more shortly.

Clay four

DiRT 4 threw up some more highly confusing numbers so over again please take these with a grain of table salt until we have more time to confirm them or someone else shows the aforementioned or similar operation. Rather than condone these results we re-tested Vega 56 as well as the GeForce x serial cards and kept finding the verbal same results. All the quality settings were the same and visually Vega looked like information technology was rendering everything the same.

For whatever reason Vega 56 was able to beat the GTX 1080 at 1440p and even crush the GTX 1080 Ti'south minimum upshot. This goes confronting everything seen and so far, so again take these numbers with a grain of salt until we tin confirm them with at least one other source.
