So AMD released a new VBIOS update after the cards were shipped to reviewers and stores. Basically, the new VBIOS bumps the frequency of the card to make it competitive against the RTX 2060. The original VBIOS was closer to the GTX 1660 Ti in terms of performance. Steve @ GN pointed out some issues with AMD:
- Some of the cards already at retailers won't have the new VBIOS and you won't see it until Chinese factories comes back from Lunar New Year, you will need to flash it yourself if you're an early adopter
- AMD drivers are still crap, out of lab testing show a few problems
- Cluster *beep* regarding review embargo, he can't review other AIB cards on the same day
