Which place are you located at?

As far as I can see there is a big shortage of vega's , at least in europe
At this point of time whatever version of vega is just not there,
so if I was you and i wanted badly a vega, then I would grab whatever brand is available.

from price perspective I would go for 56 at first , then 64 and the most expensive the liquid ones.

In UK? Ebuyer sells them discounted sometimes. Keep checking their site.

The blower-style ones will run hot and loud, although tuning power/clock settings for efficiency can help reduce those problems.

Personally, if you can find any, I'd find the ones with aftermarket air coolers, such as the Asus Strix or Sapphire Nitro models. (Liquid cooling may also be nice.) Unfortunately, I think MSI (and perhaps some others) opted out of building Vegas with aftermarket cooling solutions.

The price difference is also important to consider, in addition to your rig plans. If you plan to organize a bunch of high-CFM (and noisy) case fans to supplement the integrated cooling systems, blower cards would probably be fine.

Wow what a bunch of bull crap in this thread. Do any of you respondents own a Vega??

You can still apply the softpower play Regmod and you should for every Vega card.

Do not use any water cooled for mining as they draw way more power for the same hash rate which means you make lessssssss$$$$$$

-yes, i own 5 , 4 liquid and one 56 nitro
-regarding the saphire, only the nitro edition requires 3 8 pins connectors, the rest work with just 2
-even the nitro one, doesn't have a problem since you just need again 2 cables so not a big deal (for the third connection you can use one of the 2 cables  used anyway)
-regarding the performance, the liquid as said above, need a bit more power , but you could get over 2k on xmr easily with low temps, so might the card live a bit longer
-due to 56 being able to reach easily 1950-1980 , right now I would go all the way with the cheapest option that happen to be 56.
-other than price  just choose  any vendor since scarcity of vega doesn't leave enough room for vendor choice
