ASRock has launched their RX Vega series of Phantom Gaming Graphics cards

When ASRock released their Phantom Gaming series of graphics cards, gamers were disappointed at ASRock's lack of high-end RX Vega series offerings, leaving them with a GPU lineup that exclusively used AMD's last-generation Polaris architecture.



Today ASRock has launched their new RX Vega Phantom Gaming X series of graphics cards, delivering RX Vega 56 and RX Vega 64-powered variants, though sadly these graphics cards appear to be nothing more than a re-release of AMD's reference RX Vega series of graphics cards.



Looking at the specifications of ASRock's RX Vega 56 and 64 GPUs we can confirm that the company are also using AMD's reference clock speeds, with both graphics cards taking in power from two 8-pin PCIe power cables. This similarity makes it seem unlikely that ASRock has made any functional changes over AMD's reference models, with the primary difference being limited to aesthetics.

ASRock graphics cards are set to enter the European market this month, giving PC builders the opportunity to try out a new GPU brand and inject a little more competition into the GPU market.
