Radeon Vega 8 vs Radeon RX Vega 11 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the Radeon RX Vega 11 GPU is faster than the Radeon Vega 8 in gaming.

By comparing the spec sheets, both the Radeon Vega 8 and the Radeon RX Vega 11 have the same base clock speed. Despite this, the Radeon Vega 8 has a much higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the Radeon RX Vega 11 has a significantly lower TDP at 15 W when compared to the Radeon Vega 8 at 45 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the Radeon RX Vega 11 over the Radeon Vega 8.
