When starting off with the FFT single-precision performance with SHOC, the RX Vega 64 does very well with this ROCm OpenCL driver and manages to outperform the GTX 1080 Ti by a wide margin. The RX Vega 56 is also doing well as are the other Polaris/Fiji/Hawaii GPUs on the "legacy" AMDGPU-PRO 17.50 OpenCL driver.

While in the MD5 hashing test, the RX Vega 56 and 64 fit in between the GTX 1080 and GTX 1080 Ti.

But even with the Vega GPUs having HBM2 memory, the texture read bandwidth test in SHOC was running rather poorly on the tested AMD GPUs.
