AMD RX Vega 64 Outperforms NVIDIA RTX 2080 by up to 20% in Vulkan Enabled World War Z
Let’s start with the most popular resolution out there, 1920×1080, with Vulkan enabled AMD manages to take all top 3 spots, with its Radeon VII, Radeon Vega 64 Liquid Cooled Edition and Radeon Vega 64 [all beating RTX 2080Ti] .. We see a similar pattern across the stack, with the RX 580 outperforming the twice as expensive RTX 2070, and the RX 570 outpacing the GTX 1660 Ti.
At 2560×1440, the green team manages to close the gap slightly. Although the RX Vega 64 still manages to slug it out with the RTX 2080 Ti and maintain its lead over the RTX 2080
[At 4K] the RX Vega 64 maintains its lead over the RTX 2080, whilst the RTX 2080 Ti manages to claw its way up the performance ladder.
this is a great showing for the red team and goes to show what a properly implemented low overhead API can do
Vulcan is based on AMD Mantle -- the original low CPU overhead graphics driver. But, even I'm shocked that my card beats a 2080Ti at 1080p and 2K (2080Ti edges past at 4K).
