Keymaster06/15/2019 at 2:53 pm #3148The AMD Radeon Vega 8 is an integrated graphics processor used in the AMD Ryzen 5-series main processors for laptops. The Radeon Vega 8 can be used for light gaming. It offers performance similar to basic graphics of common laptop processors, such as the Intel UHD graphics of the Intel Core CPUs. A step up in the AMD Radeon Vega line is the Vega 10 of the Ryzen 7 chips, offering improved performance, but still in the light gaming category.
AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics Benchmark
Here’s a benchmark test of the Radeon Vega 8 graphics processor, incorporated into the popular AMD Ryzen 5 3500U main processor. It’s compared to other widely used graphics processors for laptops.

You can watch Vega 8 gameplay videos in the Reviews, Q&A, and Videos section below on this page.

Keymaster06/05/2020 at 4:37 am #3232If you’re asking about real / physical memory of the Vega 3, it doesn’t have any. It uses the main RAM memory of the computer, with amount of it depending on a task. I’m not sure the maximum amount of RAM Vega 3 can utilize, but 2GB usage is generally often supported by modern integrated graphics processors such as the Vega 3.

Keymaster11/29/2020 at 6:36 pm #3206No the vram capacity is fixed. However game performance is not determined by vram because the vram is still extracted from system memory. However if you use dual channel ram, that is, 2 ram modules of the same capacity and speed, you will get a 15-30% increase in performance. Note that the fixed vram capacity is extracted from the ram hence it is unavailable for use in Windows.

Keymaster12/24/2020 at 11:23 pm #3202I don’t wanna sound stupid but if I look in my computer case I literally can’t see my gpu (I have this one) and I wanna replace it but how am I gonna do that without getting rid of this one? Cuz I actually only see my fans my WiFi thingy my motherboard, storage the cpu and power supply.. nothing else.. I am new with computers so yeh maybe I’m just stupid but someone pls help

Keymaster12/25/2020 at 12:52 pm #3201your cpu and gpu are integrated together, your gpu is in your cpu in short, you don’t need to get rid of the gpu, you can safely just install a different gpu in your motherboard but this cpu (or rather apu) is pretty weak, it’s like only good for really light gaming (most 3d games just don’t work lol, nights in the woods runs like garbage xD) so I would reccomend buying a new ryzen cpu and then getting a gpu
you can go on reddit and ask people there or watch LinusTechTips to get more education about pc building -

Keymaster12/25/2020 at 12:59 pm #3200Does your computer use Radeon graphics that is integrated into the main processor? It is possible to have a PC without a dedicated video card, if the main processor features integrated graphics. By the way, if you’re referring to a laptop computer, then graphics and the main processor are not upgradeable.

Keymaster01/12/2021 at 9:21 pm #3198Yes it can, depends which cod too. The newest warzone, I get probably 30/40 fps on default or lowered graphics cant remember.
Some games reach 100+ fps, where as some games 40/50fps.
LoL = 140/180fps
Cod=30/40fps
Rust=30/60fps(performance over quality)
GTA/online= 60+fps(probably more but stable 100% at 60)
MC= 200/300fps (RLcraft {Heavy mod} 70/150fps)
GW2=40/50fps
In general for internet browsing / start up / loading speed all that is perfect no complains.
Conclusion this is 100% worth it for someone with small budget, you can buy this set up, use it for 1 year and in mean time save up some money, to then upgrade the gpu or both new cpu and gpu combo for better performance! -

Keymaster01/18/2021 at 2:04 pm #3195Many notebooks with the Radeon Vega 8 and 8GB RAM have 2GB of it reserved for the Vega 8. So, it is possible to have more than 512MB of shared memory with the Vaga 8. Usually, laptops with the Vega 8 and other integrated graphics processors have in their BIOS settings an option to set maximal RAM amount that laptop’s GPU can use.

Keymaster02/12/2021 at 2:13 pm #3190If you use ryzne controler or amd apu tuning utility (second one is newer and better) you can increase your TDP/STAMP setting, graphics memory setting and graphics core setting and even max temp, however be aware that most nootbooks have bad cooling system and if you increase tdp (which is a must because otherwise processor will be workin in 0.60 ghz) over some point then your laptop can literally melt before your very own eyes, soooooo…………..
YES, you can (a tip for you, if you have $#ITY cooling system dont increase tdp over 17)

Keymaster02/19/2021 at 10:02 am #3186Hi. This is my laptop’s specs. I’m currently using HP 15s-eq0067au.
When i purchased it, i requested to upgrade my RAM to 8 GB but it shows here only 6 GB is usable. Does that mean the Vega 8 takes 2 GB from the RAM.
Another question: if i want to upgrade my RAM up to 16 GB, it will show only 14 GB RAM is usable? -

Keymaster03/11/2021 at 1:58 pm #3181As far as I know Magicbook 14 has HDMI 1.4 video output port which supports 2560×1080 resolution. However, it has a lower bandwidth than HDMI 2.0 standard, so you won’t be able to have high refresh rates for extra smooth motion like 120Hz or 144Hz at 2560×1080. In theory, HDMI 1.4 supports 2560×1080 at 100Hz max. The most common refresh rate used by external monitors is 60Hz, so if your monitor is at 60Hz you don’t need a higher refresh rate anyway.
As for the Vega 8 itself, I wasn’t able to find info on maximal refresh rates, but modern GPUs like the Vega 8 regularly support 60Hz even on ultra high resolutions like 4K 3840 × 2160.

Keymaster06/08/2021 at 9:55 am #3170I can’t find that info too. Usually, modern laptops with multiple video output ports (i.e. DisplayPort via USB-C and HDMI) do support multiple external displays. So I assume Vega 8 can do that too if there are multiple video out ports on the laptop. There might be some limitations in terms of screen refresh rate, for instance multiple 4K monitors limited at 30 Hz instead of standard 60 Hz or higher.

Keymaster08/17/2021 at 7:33 am #3166Yes i play free fire and gta 5 on it. 8gb ram might have a problem running gta online but if you will upgrade it to another 8gb ram which means dual channel it will increase performance by 15 to 30 percent in all of your games. I play gta online and i usually get 25 to 30 fps if the server is containing like 20 people. But in normal gta 5 or gta online alone session you might get 40 to 50 fps but after upgrading to 8×2 gb ram you will get 50-75 fps and in gta online you will get 35-50fps if the server is containing 20 people. Free fire i run using msi app player and i get 60 fps on training ground smooth settings. Im using a 8gb ram laptop btw 16 gb ram will increase performance and you can set the game at medium or ultra settings shadow off and you should get around 50fps. You can also increase performance by overclocking your processor by ryzen controller. Idk how to overclock it but i know that for overclocking you should have a cooling pad or you can get your laptop too hot that it can fry eggs in it. But if you have cooling pad and you overclock it then the performance will increase more and you will not have any problem running both of the games. I hope you understand now

Keymaster02/18/2024 at 3:33 pm #3149Mr Havoc don’t lie to a man I have Ryzen 5600G and 16 GB DDR4 Kingston Fury Beast my Vega 8 came with 2 GB VRAM I Boosted in bios at 4 GB VRAM and I will buy another 16 GB Of Kingston Fury Beast and then boost to 8 GB VRAM I know how to do that what I’m trying to do now is boosting bus from 64 bit’s to 128 bit’s that would double the performance in instant and according to AMD Website it is doable
