As its name implies, it has 56 compute units to the higher-end card's 64. In many ways, the Radeon RX Vega 56 that we're looking at here occupies a similar spot in AMD's new-for-2017 lineup of Vega enthusiast-grade graphics cards. When we wrote this, the Ryzen 5 1600X was selling for about $235, compared to about $460 for the Ryzen 7 1800X. Its six cores are a slight downtick from the Ryzen 7 1800X's eight, but with that 25 percent downstep in physical cores comes a nearly 50 percent reduction in price. We think it's the best value among the AMD Ryzen processors we've tested (11 so far this year!), in part because it delivers the same clock speeds (3.6GHz to 4GHz stock) of the top-end mainstream AMD Ryzen 7 1800X. Take, for example, our favorite AMD Ryzen CPU of the moment, the Ryzen 5 1600X.
But it's often the products one or two steps down the stack that offer the better value, delivering most of the performance of the costliest video cards or processor chips, but at a much-reduced price. In AMD's world in 2017, that's been processors such as the beastly Ryzen Threadripper 1950X and the Ryzen 7 1800X, as well as its long-awaited Radeon RX Vega 64 ($999.77 at Amazon) graphics card.
