Hi, just wondering if anyone is using Illustrator CC with a Radeon Pro Vega II MPX Module as their graphics card and does it work ok?
thanks

Why do you need such a monster card for Illustrator?

Or, if you already have it and experience some problems, try to turn off GPU performance in preferences.

I have a 7.1 with a 5700x in it but it's a bit glitchy at times, just thought Illustrator might run a bit smoother with the Vega

turn off GPU performance in preferences.

Try this first. Illustrator generally doesn't need that GPU power, even for 3D features.

Apart from that, Illustrator is generally piece of crap regarding optimization and CPU use. And needs to be rewritten from the base up. I think they kept that for the ARM (didn't tried it myself), but for the x86 it sucks big time.
