Does anyone have a clue on the performance differences one might see between these two graphics upgrade options on the new 2018 MacBook Pro. AMD's Radeon Vega 16 Vs Vega 20. There's only a $100 difference in price. Have searched the web far and wide and cannot find the answer to this question.
MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018), iOS 12.1
I don't know the performance difference between the two... however... I just got my MBP w/Vega 20 today and I'm absolutely disappointed with the performance with World of Warcraft. The default settings of the game's graphics can't produce more than 30FPS. If I max them at 10 and less. I expected much much more.
Thanks for that bit of info on WoW. I actually have the i9 with 560x. Playing WoW in macos is rough unless i drop everything to 3. But, with boot camp i can actually play at decent graphics and framerate. Makes me a bit happier i decided to just stick with my 560x model for now. Until Apple can, at some point, get their heads on straight and start using Nvidia again lol.
How does it perform when you scale to 50% ? I know it's only 1440x900 but on a 15" that is good enough for me. Also try disabling anti-aliasing if it is enabled.
I am playing with my MBP Retina 2012 (Nvidia GT 650m) and with scaling at 78%, it works fine at setting 1. Except when I am in one of those Azerite caves with fog which severely drops the fps. And except when I am fighting a world boss with 30 other players.
Thanks for posting your findings, even though you are disappointed. I was considering to buy an MBP with Vega 20 too.
