There’s some scaling in 3DMark Firestrike GT1, which is poly and tessellation intensive, and scaling in Unigine synthetic benchmarks. Even when there is scaling at the more realistic upper-end of performance, though, it’s not much – we’re talking 1-3% for an extra $100-$150. Not at all worth it, and often not replicable in gaming scenarios. Again, there are likely compute applications and some very specifically-made games that could benefit from the CU increase, but 97% of the performance comes down to clocks – if not more.

Given how easy it is to flash V56 and overclock, we’d recommend just going that route. Save the money, OC Vega 56, and walk away with more money and functionally equivalent performance.
