Although more than one year old as a GPU at the time of my buying and having been out for 9 months or so as a 3rd party graphics card from ASUS Strix, this card is nevertheless a significant improvement for me over my previous Strix card, the RX480 8GB. That card was barely able to maintain 40fps at 1440p in demanding titles such as Total War Warhammer 2, which is the resolution of screen I have and the game I mostly play. This card easily displays 60fps at 1440p, give or take, with 16GB of slowish DDR4 RAM (2133mhz) and Ryzen 1700 at 3.8Ghz pinned across all cores. The clincher for me was the price - sub 1070ti prices for a card that will, when I want to, go past the 1070ti when OC'd and sometimes outperform it when at stock levels anyway. At the price I got it for, £389, I would certainly say this card is worth it, but it isn't always available at that price and I think I just got lucky? I was also a little bit worried about reports that Vega card had sub-optimal VRM cooling as the thermal pads on some models were not covering the VRM FETs in entirety, and the contact that there was seemed to be slight, resulting in high VRM temps and card-throttling as a result. However, none of that is in evidence on the card I got. The thermal pad looks well aligned from side-on and appears to be in full contact with the FETs across the width of the PCB, meaning that I don't experience any disagreeable temperatures and the fans run at no more than 1600-1700rpm at maximum when gaming. I am very, very pleased with my purchase. EDIT - after a little bit of GPU-Z monitoring (application which indicates what the card is doing for voltages, frequencies and temperatures), I’ve realised like many people that the VRM capacitors get hot. How hot? 100 degrees Celsius and upwards hot. Yes, HOT. However, be aware that these are 10k capacitors and are rated to 125 degrees plus, so they are designed to run that hot. It may shock some users and cause them discomfort to use a card that has components running at these temperatures. Not me. I’ll slap a water block or a Morpheus cooler on it if it gets close to limits, and I doubt that will happen. Still runs fast and quiet in any event. Just offered for full disclosure before you make your choice. EDIT - now a real bargain at the price of £310ish in Apr 19 and I modded the card with new VRM thermal pads from thermal grizzly and repasted the GPU. Card is brilliant, powerful, quiet and reliable.

Card undervolted to 1.050 and memory to 0.800 and overclocked by +100 to core and memory. All performed well when i noticed that vddc, mvvd and hotspot temperatures reaching over 100 C on latest build of Hwinfo. Asked on forums other owners and those temps are too high. Emailed Asus and they say card cant overheat cause its brand new and that Hwinfo is reporting wrong temps. Setting fans manually to 100% and temps holding at 80ish. Otherwise perfomance is at maximum as expected. Core despite uv and oc wont go above 1600Mhz. Fan noise is normal despite the weird temp readings. Too bad cause this is my first Asus product ever. Abit dissaspointed.

I'm a bit of an ASUS fan boy. I've owned both a Strix RX480 and a Dual GTX 1060 6GB, both great GPU's. So I bought the ASUS Strix RX VEGA 56 without doing proper research. I had heard rumours of early STRIX VEGA cards having high VRM temperatures, but I thought that ASUS would have this fixed now over a year after launch.
This Strix Vega 56 had the potential to be a the best Vega 56 GPU on the market. The only issue is an undersized thermal pad on the VRMs. When using the stock "Balanced" profile in AMD Wattman and running a taxing benchmark or game the VRM temperature would reach a toasty 100 Deg C (Measured in GPUz). Whilst this is nowhere near the maximum temperature for the VRM modules it is a little too toasty for my liking, and would only get worse if increasing the power slider to + 50%.
Undervolting only improved the issue slightly as the power draw through the VRMs roughly remained the same.
The good news is, that the fix is easy enough, a Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad 8 20 x 120 x 3mm from Overclockers UK fits properly. This and some fresh thermal paste and the VRM temps now never top 90 degrees. Thank you Boomstick777 over on the Overclockers UK forum.
Still the fix shouldn't have been needed.
To save yourself the trouble look for the Sapphire Radeon RX Vega 56 Nitro+ as that card has no issues at all

At first this seemed fantastic. Overclocked. Lowered the voltage. Decent temps and a lot of power. Blasted through metro exodus. At the price paid it was amazing.
Fan noise is fine on auto but temps get too high. J-temp or hotspot would get well over 110c. And this is with lowered voltage. A custom curve stops this but the noise changes at around 55% to become unpleasant and very noticeable beyond that. Speeds would normally sit around 64-77% to keep 77c.
I thought I could put up with this but one day I thought I’ll just give up the extra frames and keep the noise lower by using all stock settings. 5 mins into the game it crashed with temps at the limit. I returned the card.
I do game with headphones a lot of the time but for some games I like speakers and subwoofer so I do find fan noise important. I also find it important that a card doesn’t overheat at stock settings. I guess I’m saying that even though I could have made this card work, I shouldn’t HAVE to make this card not overheat for it to work.
My case is very well cooled so maybe I just got a bad one. But with this brand and class of card this really should not happen.

I installed this card 5 months ago in a virtual pinball machine.The original drivers being 17.1.2 it installed fine used it for a few hrs.then with Christmas and everything else that has been goinh on it didnt get used.Now I'm at home I decided to start playing it again so an update to the drivers and boy what a mistake it's taken about 5 days just to get the display working again on the old drivers , absolutely no new drivers will work on pinballx frontend. So I can't keep it up to date.Forums are full of the same issues. sorry last AMD card I ever buy
