in reality,how does the amd cooling on vii compare to quality aib ones on vega ?Heh, how could I have missed this thread? I had gotten a Radeon VII on the day after it was released, a few were physically available in the various shops in the IT mall in my neck of the woods. I love it! AMD fanboy I am! I also have 3x VEGA64 (one's RMA'ed, the replacement card's in my brother's apartment in Toronto), as well as a Leadtek GTX1080 (just to center myself actually when a card is this good and cheap at the price I'd gotten it, it's a no brainer)

Ugh, I'm replaying Metro Exodus on my CF VEGA64 rig (finished it on my Radeon VII rig, got a bad ending so playing it again, but less Rambo style) so I haven't used my other rig. I'll play Strange Brigade and let you know what sorta temps I get. It is a tad loud and I have set a custom fan curve, but kinda recall not exceeding 72C if memory serves.in reality,how does the amd cooling on vii compare to quality aib ones on vega ?

As much as I admire powerhouses like the easy max-IQ gameability of the 2080Ti and the Radeon VII, flagship king of (usually) underutilized GCN, I am by nature a modest fellow. I used to be a die-hard PC enthusiast, spending more money I should have on PC hardware I didn't really need....then many years passed and I realized nothing got better but attempts to glue your face to a monitor.
Like many members of this forum, I'm one of those kinda people with an encyclopedic knowledge of PCs that makes normal people do a Bill the Cat face. But maybe, a time's gonna come when you realize that real life has better graphics than any game you will ever play while you are alive, and if you think that is a lie, you're a noob at life. I know men sick of real-life war, and I was sick of shooters when Q3 was already old. Hardcore gamers are some of the most selfish people around, I know from experience.
All that said, when I game, I game with an RX460 2GB I found for $90 on Amazon about 2 years ago. I love it.
I have a 1080p monitor and run most games 1080 or 720 on Medium. Undervolted and no power connector.

Modest you say?
As for the remarks about 'noobs at life', many people can appreciate both highly immersive gaming experiences and the real world around us.
You can be both into realistic graphics and real life.
To me this reads more as 'gaming is old to you' and you're tired of being in that upgrade/rat race. Though its a nice refreshing bit of input, can appreciate that for sure. Some perspective as well in our relentless chase to realistic graphics, indeed.

I haven't had enough of the chase for the best iq and framerate but at some point there'll have to come a time when all I care about in a game is writing and mechanics and I'll enjoy that with a low budget rig too.As much as I admire powerhouses like the easy max-IQ gameability of the 2080Ti and the Radeon VII, flagship king of (usually) underutilized GCN, I am by nature a modest fellow.

Fair enough, for me the Picture Quality in 1440p PC Gaming is the utmost highest of priorities for me. That is why I'm using a RX 580 8GB GPU. Even my previous Radeon GPU ensured the best PQ for gaming.As much as I admire powerhouses like the easy max-IQ gameability of the 2080Ti and the Radeon VII, flagship king of (usually) underutilized GCN, I am by nature a modest fellow.
