My first computer I ever built I got the radeon Vii. I have upgraded the rest of my system but I still use the radeon vii and I can say that it is a beast of a card. I have had zero issues out of it.
i have one of the rarer vega cards . its the radeon pro SSG 2 . its a 24gb hbm2 7 nm version of the radeon 7 with built in storage . it has 4tb nvme in raid 0 comprised of 4 1tb ssds . its pretty danged fast and out classes my 1080 and 3060
@@Miyconst On my part it's speculation based on other reports from the internet. They did say they had to use an external programmer for said reason. I'm planning on getting an MI50 myself from China to try it out myself too.
I have a radeon vii with a water block using liquid metal, 50 degrees is the highest the hot spot gets. 367w in stress tests and 14k in time spy. Great card
Since i am a university student looking to benefit from the FP64 performance, but i have a tight budget and can't afford any problems, do you believe that the PCIe problem impacts the performance significantly? And do you believe that it's a drivers isue that will be or has been addressed (since the video was uploaded)?
These GPUs are no longer receiving driver updates, it's End Of Life for AMD. Whether PCI-E issue affects the performance I can't tell because I could not test the PCI-E 4.0 mode.
Hi Miyconst, I have a question about xeon e5 cpus, would it better if i go for e5 2699 v3 for gaming and a little bit of cad and adobe or e5 2667 v4 would be better? I am really confused as I only do gaming rather than rendering stuff. Thanks,
Man the Slovakian price for the Pro VII seems almost absurdly cheap compared to what I see here in the US. The cheapest one I see here is $1700 on amazon, where as a Slovakian ebay seller will ship them for $540 if you order 3 or more, but even the $900 price on a single one is just over half what amazon wants.
@@Miyconst No I appreciate the offer, but I have no need for them, I was just surprised by the price gap. I only use my PC for gaming and my 3080 I bought "broken" works just fine.
These are probably better supported on Linux for everything that could use ROCm, right? Also a aftermarket cooler like the Rajintek Morpheus should fit on it if it also uses a board layout similar to the Radeon VII. I had one of these on a Vega 56 and it did make a huge difference for my ears.
Unfortunately, these are more or less EOL as far as support for future ROCm versions is concerned (as of ROCm 5.7 GA, no new features/optimizations will be added; and no bug fixes / critical security fixes in a year's time from now (Q2 2024)). Pretty disappointing outcome by AMD, given the cards are only a few years old (2019, 4+ years). Heck, Nvidia only just dropped CUDA support at the end of last year for the prehistoric Kepler GPU's... which are from 2012... so that's 10 years of support vs. 4ish years. I'd be annoyed if I owned a Radeon Pro VII and wanted to do HPC/AI workloads. As far as a gaming card or general CAD work goes, they'd still be decent cards.
Seeing the PCB of the card there is a comb connector to connect 2 cards in the same PC, I would be curious to know if it is possible to develop a crossfire configuration with 2 AMD Radeon Pro VII cards

It's still a great GPU, just a bit too slow according to modern gaming standards and the Pro version is way too expensive for gamers.
@Miyconst yea. I am still able to play my games on ultra settings just fine. I have a 1440p monitor so when I use fsr I barely can notice it.

Great video as always
You can mod a Radeon Instinct MI50 into a Pro VII and get the same or even better performance.
That's true, but it has only one display output, no cooler, and what's crucial, I didn't test it myself, yet.
Apparently you could flash it with the normal gaming version VII BIOS to unlock overclocking without any limitations or issues.
Is it a speculation or you have tried it? In my case it wasn't possible because the card's layout is different.

Nice work friend. LiKe!🤣
Thanks for the info, review, another store to save and where to buy refurbished GPU and some PC parts

Go with E5-2696 V3 and disable a few cores.

The Radeon VII Pro has full FP32 support as well.
It does but how many people need it?
If you're working in AI or another type of machine learning, you need FP32.
Did you mean FP16?
@@christophegroulx7816 No, FP32
@@anthonyn.9228 All GPUs have full FP32 performance, it's the standard format

The Pro VII blower cooler is not that noisy actually, so I wouldn't bother. For PCB - check the files download link, there are some PCB shots.

Crossfire has been abandoned for a long time, did you mean infinity fabric for professional applications?
is it more reliable than the regular radeon VII ?
It's way more efficient for slightly less performance.
5700xt is around $100-150 these days
Great gpu for 1080p alongside rx6600
The radeon vii (pro or not) are basically Vega..
Boa noite, um abraço
Looks like I dodged a bullet by not buying a Radeon VII Pro. Christ almighty what a buggy as fuck card.
