Pricing & clock speeds for AMD's upcoming Radeon RX Vega high-end gaming cards have just been leaked. We're fast approaching AMD's Radeon RX Vega launch which is set to officially take place later today, but the barrage of info is already in full force.
As we've detailed previously, RX Vega comes in a variety of configurations. RX Vega will be available in two main versions, Vega 64 and Vega 56. The former features 64 compute units (4096 GCN stream processors) and the latter features 56 compute units, hence the names. RX Vega 56 will be available in air cooled versions only, both as a reference card and custom models from AMD's AIB partners. Air and liquid cooled versions of RX Vega 64 will be sold concurrently however, in addition to special limited edition models of both.
Here's the breakdown in terms of pricing. Note that these figures have been spotted in the code of Newegg's Vega product pages. They're as legit as leaks can get.

- AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Air: $499
- AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Air Limited Edition: $549
- AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Liquid : $599
- AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 Liquid Limited Edition : $649 [UPDATED $649/$699]
- AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 : Pending [UPDATED $399]
[UPDATED - 7:36 AM ET 30/7/2017] We just got word that RX Vega 56 will cost $399 and the Limited Edition liquid cooled RX Vega 64 will retail for $699 and be part of a "special bundle". We don't know yet what this bundle will look like. We've now heard similar price quotes for the entire lineup from multiple sources, which is a good sign.

The limited edition models feature a uniquely designed metallic exoskeleton with a brushed aluminum surface that differentiates them from the standard reference cards. RX Vega 64 LE models also feature slightly higher TDPs for better sustained clock speeds.
