Talk:Radeon RX Vega series

Real Pricing
Prices should be changed to reflect the retail price without rebates since not every card comes with a rebate, a full $100 more — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.43.218.202 (talk) 11:32, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Move
Based on the name of the consumer products being released as Radeon RX Vega it seems to me the article should move to match the product name (AMD Radeon Vega Series). This is in keeping with the AMD Radeon 500 Series etc of titles. This would keep the naming consistent. Dbsseven (talk) 13:20, 31 May 2017 (UTC)


 * It should be renamed to Radeon RX Vega Series, and the page AMD Radeon 500 Series should be renamed to Radeon RX 500 Series, and same for the 400 series. Radon is now it's own company, the AMD brand is no longer used for Radeon GPUs. Take a look at the Radeon web site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spazturtle (talk • contribs) 04:11, 11 August 2017 (UTC)


 * AMD is still the parent company. Radeon is just a division of AMD. Biglulu (talk) 15:01, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

Vega APUs
Perhaps it wouldn't hurt to add fluff about the Vega 3, 8, 11 and related mobile/integrated GPUs in the mix, right? They appear to be based off the same architecture as its more powerful siblings from what I read. Blake Gripling (talk) 07:20, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Kaby Lake-G CPUs
I think the Kaby Lake-G CPUs should probably be added to this article considering the mobile & embedded APUs are on the list. Baiscally just need this table with a bit more information for the Vega GPUs. I'd add it myself but I'm terrible with tables. Cautilus (talk) 15:14, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Radeon VII
We need to find a consensus (see WP:CON) on where to put the Radeon VII, i.e. here or in a new article, same for the hardware table. So far it looks like this card is the same as the Vega series, just with a die shrink / fab update. Which means we should put it here, similar to the RX 590. On the other hand the whole RX 500 series is just a refined version of the RX 400 series, where however each series has their own article. So I guess the question boils down to marketing and currently I don't see AMD marketing the VII as a new series. Hence, at the moment, I would put the VII card here. If AMD release more cards under the VII term, we can still split them later. Thoughts? Wikiinger (talk) 20:41, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
 * we need a Vega II page, Vega is GCN 5.0 (1.4.0) and Vega II is 5.1 (1.4.1) they are not the same in IP and not the same process. Matthew Smith (talk)

Typical Board Power?
On RX Vega and Radeon VII branded boxes, instead of TDP, there's "TBP", which stands for "Typical Board Power" according to the tooltip. However, in the box which lists Desktop APUs, TDP is shown as usual.

Just wondering, what's the difference between TBP and TDP, and why has this acronym been employed instead of TDP? Are the official TDP values from those GPUs not known yet?

Date format
The date format probably should be changed from DMY to MDY given that all the newer articles (RX 5000, RX 6000, etc) are using MDY, alongside the GeForce articles, as well as AMD being a US company. AP 499D25 (talk) 02:41, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
