ASRock Phantom Gaming Lineup Gets Reference Radeon RX Vega 64 and RX Vega 56 Graphics Cards

ASRock has recently added the Radeon RX Vega series to their Phantom Gaming lineup, extending support to AMD’s flagship graphics cards. When the Phantom Gaming lineup initially launched, the first cards to be part of the lineup were the Radeon RX 500 series but now, AMD’s high-end series has been added to the lineup too.

While ASRock was having trouble extending their Phantom Gaming lineup to other market regions, since July 1st, the restrictions imposed by AMD are now somewhat removed and consumers can buy the graphics cards from various markets, including APAC, EMEA, and Latin America. The cards were expected to arrive in the other markets on July 1st and since then, ASRock has also added AMD’s flagship RX Vega graphics cards to the lineup too.

As mentioned before, the cards utilize the reference PCB and cooler design. We are looking at the mesh design on the front with a Radeon logo on the top and side. The blower fan has the ASRock Phantom Gaming logo instead of the Radeon “R”. The card also uses a custom designed backplate which reads Phantom Gaming and looks great.

The reason why ASRock isn’t offering a custom board yet is due to the fact that RX Vega is still not available in good quantities. Manufacturers want to maximize profits with this card because custom cooling or not, users who want to buy Vega will buy it regardless, even as a reference model.
