AMD's Vega Cards Aren't Good Enough
Advanced Micro Devices' (NASDAQ: AMD) long-awaited reentry into the high-end gaming graphics card market has finally arrived. The company launched mainstream Polaris graphics cards last year, aggressively going after the $200-and-under portion of the market, but eschewing the high-end. That helped AMD win some market share back from NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA), but it wasn't enough to turn its core computing and graphics segment profitable.
With the launch of its Radeon RX Vega cards, AMD can finally challenge NVIDIA in the most lucrative portion of the market. The RX Vega 64, priced at $499 and available today, will take on NVIDIA's GTX 1080. The RX Vega 56, priced at $399 and available on Aug. 28, will go toe-to-toe with the GTX 1070.
