Well yes, I believe all Vega 56s have hynix while the 64s have samsung memory. That's the reason why I buy 64s even though the 56s are cheaper. From my experience samsung memory always seems more robust and has fewer crashes. It's probably also why the 56 even with a 64 bios hashes a bit less than the 64. So basically my point remains.. We weren't even talking about the 56s.

It was my understanding that when the reference cards were released, Hynix didn't even have HBM2 ready yet (which was part of the availability issues).

Either way, there are definitely 56s with Samsung (another). But now you have me wondering about the weaker cards in my fleet.
