Reference AMD Vega Cards have a GPU tach leds array which show how much GPU power you're actually using, as shown in picture attached to my originating post and highlighted here. Please keep in in mind I got a liquid cooled version of RX Vega 64 (a bit factory overclocked).View attachment 368780

And what about respective GPU temps? Are they correspondingly high at supposed GPU max load?
 
I got no temp indications 'cause I don't have iStat installed, maybe someone else does! The issues occurs just randomly and not every time I switch on anyway... Judging by the hot air exhausting by the radiator, I suppose the GPU actually runs at high load

@pieropontra , @juantrix , @JimmyS ,

how do you derive that your GPU runs at 100% in IDLE?
You can use Terminal to query momentary stats like this for example:
Code:
ioreg -l |grep \"PerformanceStatistics\" | tr ',' '\n' |grep 'Temp\|Fan\|Core\|GPU Activity\|Memory \|Power'

Also, Xcode Additional Tools includes an OpenGL Driver Monitor app where it is possible to plot these or any other parameters to a graph.

This way it is possible to see that the GPU Core remains at its maximum frequency although device utilisation and GPU activity are both at 0%.
 
Do you have any issue with your Istat menus not reading your CPU Freq? ( with this beta release ).
Edited: Never mind..bug appeared upon installing latest Intel power gadget. Fixed

So... Does the latest MultiBeast/UniBeast combo simplify implementation on the X299 platform or is it still a custom rollout process?

Whatfor you need UB/MB for X299? The X299 EFI-Folder distribution is simple and straight and moreover fully vanilla.
