The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

[flopper]

Sound is subjective I just say if I paid 700 euro it then better be silent.
Its why I would for example NEVER buy a 980ti as its loud and also hot.
Most buying the card have no issues.
That would indicate to me its fixed.
Now and then people buy a fridge, a car and it might break down.
bought two identical motherboard to sis kids one broke down in 3 days the other one just worked forever.

If it's excessive noise and acknowledged by the manufacturers then surely retailers should offer a refund or a means to have it sent back and replaced with a non faulty unit. I've had a couple of AIO and none of them had whine like that, my current antec 950 which is back in its box has a slight humm that is audible over my case fans but nothing terrible, infact I replaced it with a Phantek TC14PE and that is A lot louder on idle, so much so I'm probably going to replace it with an nzxt kraken shortly

Have asked for my pre-order to be cancelled. Not risking getting a really noisy one and not being able to replace it. Certainly not accepting losing 25% of the price if it goes back.

Someone from OCUK really needs to step in here and tell people whats what.

 

[elmarko]

This is something AMD need to take over-ship of & communicate to sellers (and buyers) it's a fault worthy of RMA & resolve the matter.

Otherwise they will be losing preorders left-right & centre. Hell if if mine wasn't on the way to me now I'd be considering cancelling.

 

[RavenXXX2]

Do OCUK charge 25% on all returned used items? A bit steep that.

 

[Bonjour]

It is a bit daft, considering the limited number of units we're talking about.

How many 970s did OcUK replace over VRAM-gate? Theres so few Fijis in circulation, and the number affected by this issue must be even smaller.

 

[MadMossy]

Man I wish mine would hurry up, see the sapphire cards are due in earlier now on the 10th, still 17th fur HIS cards

One solution would be to re-bloc the ones with pump whine considering EK already have a block ready:

**DO NOT HOTLINK IMAGES**

I'd buy one with pump whine for that very reason if if was a slight discount since i'd be stripping it off anyway...

 

[chroniclard]

Can offer you a bag of chips for it, not worth much more due to coil whine.

 

[TonyTurbo78]

Think I might cancel my pre-order today as well. Don't like the news of coil whine one bit and ocuk stance on whine is alarming.

 

[Gregster]

Mine will be here between 10 and 11. Please don't have whine

 

[siege2]

think I am going to wait at leasts until August till I get one ie coil whine issue.

 

[Pneumonic]

Well I think I am going to wait it out for a couple of months and watch this space before I part with my two 7990s.. looks like a lot of promise which I am excited about but going to wait for it to mature a bit first.

 

[Kelt]

Wise move. I'd be gutted if I had to lose 25% of £500+ for returning a faulty card. This needs sorting out.

 

[Ayahuasca]

I'm just going to wait for the X2 or see if nVidia ever make a dual card before Pascal (doubtful I know).

No point switching from my current setup to a Fury X just for the sake of wanting to play with one.

 

[Bonjour]

Is it actually coil whine or is it pump whine?

I can understand no return for coil whine. Pump whine is another issue, though.

 

[pmc25]

Do OCUK charge 25% on all returned used items? A bit steep that.

It's illegal if undamaged. If they're actually trying to do this (they tried to pull shady stuff all the time under the old ownership), the authorities need to be informed.

 

[pmc25]

Yes I tried that and it made no difference.
I'm pretty sure it has to do with the pump itself, it sounds very much like an electric/motor high pitch kind of noise.

It means the bearings are faulty.

 

[Ayahuasca]

As long as you return it in as new condition you won't be charged, some staff may try it on but I haven't seen anyone recently complaining on the forum about being charged a 25% restocking fee.
