Arrived this morning. Geekbench Metal score is 144674; roughly 49% higher than what I used to get with my Radeon Pro Vega II MPX. OpenCL scores are lower, of course, 101972, but still about 45-50% faster than the Radeon Pro Vega II. In real-world use for things I do--namely photo editing and stacking--it's definitely a lot faster. I wish I had timed a few tasks, but things like stacking photos in Helicon Focus and running sharpening or denoise algorithms with the Topaz products are noticeably much faster.

In related matters, I have one Radeon Pro Vega II that is now available....I guess I can list it on the sales forum here? Never used it before.

I got my 6800x duo today too!

I have a second setup with a Vega ii, I may be interested in yours. What do you think you were selling it for?

So basically the same....but the Geekbench is only benchmarking one of the two cores, not the two together. For apps that can use the two, the MPX modules also have the advantage of the Infinity Fabric Link. I'm going to mess with some of my other apps tomorrow that use multi GPUs and I expect a nice boost there as well. The price on the MPX module is pretty good, too--basically the same as two 6800's at retail.
