Gigabyte goes from developing and manufacturing custom models of the AMD RX Vega 64, due to AMD's problems to supply GPUs, but does not rule out launching a custom model of the RX Vega 56.

AMD's struggles to provide stock GPUs for custom AMD RX Vega's is ending the patience of some of the assemblers working with the company. The first to get off the hook has been Gigabyte, who will not launch custom models of the AMD RX Vega 64, although they do not rule out launching custom models of the RX Vega 56. This move is due to the great problems that AMD presents to supply Vega GPUs, which has even led the brand to look for a new final assembler for the packages.

Only ASUS has shown a customized model of the Vega, specifically the ASUS RX Vega 64 Strix, which has already been reviewed, but nothing is known when they hit the market and what price they will have. Although what ASUS showed, it was a simple press trick, given the really bad moment in which the company is, since in the last two years it is suffering a setback in sales due to some strategies of doubtful usefulness.

Gigabyte, like MSI, are not willing to waste time on a product that is not working well and waiting for the GPUs to arrive is money that is lost and also the factor of the arrival of the NVIDIA GTX 1070 Ti is added. , which although they make little sense, since we are months away from the Voltas arriving and with a drop in price of the products that NVIDIA has of between 10-25%, it would be more than enough to beat Vega, they have opted for launch a product, that all goes to mining and only a small part goes to the gaming market.
