The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

Theres any number of tricks you could pull to try to show your card as being as fast or faster, the nature of independent reviews is that they use the same system, the same settings and the same bench run. I'm not going to even attempt to repeat pages and pages of work that other people have already done.

I don't do tricks and i've got no time for BS or any fanboy stuff, you're entitled to your opinion just like the rest of us, but sometimes it's best to keep it to your self, rather than just posting what frankly is junk, especially in the owners thread, go make a new "Fury X is crap" thread.

I can't for the life of me understand why mods allow it in owners thread, i'm all for a debate, but most of this thread is full of spewed toss from people who don't even own the card.

Just go look at the hexus amp extreme review. That was done with the card boosting to 1420 in quite a range of games... Most decent 980ti's will do ~1500 plus or minus, 1535 in my case... No I'm not going to get in to a benching competition as I've knackered my motherboard and I'm on stock settings until skylake comes out lol, I probably couldn't compete with Matt's £800 INTEL processor

Sorry then, last post, but as you specifically asked me questions I thought id be polite and respond.

LOL - *Liar Liar* Go team Rrrroooooyalll blue.

It's all good. Well it will be just as soon as more cards start rolling in

humbug · 24 Jul 2015 at 19:17

Andy, you love your 980TI's and thats great, but please share your love for them in the 980TI thread.

This is a Fury-X owners thread, not an Nvidia vs AMD thread, there are plenty of those already in this forum.

Others want some feedback from Fury-X owners, your constant challenging owners is not good for those just looking for a bit of knowledge from owners.

Agreed...
They both offer there own reasons to own either card.. Faster doesn't always mean better..
So what if ti is 5 fps faster like you would notice it lol
But you would notice 50c vs 80+c

I doubt I'd notice the difference in temperature unless there was a readout somewhere for me to see (e.g. Afterburner), but if you're allowed a display to show you that then you should be a llowed a FPS display too, so then yes, I'd notice 5 fps too if there was a fps display.

Don't be sorry bud, i'm not having a go, it's just i would rather the "Mine's faster than yours" stuff in it's own thread.

Sorry Matt but you constantly ask people to benchmark their Nvidia cards against AMD featured games, talk about cherry picking at its best.

What do you want him to run? Batman? AC Unity? Watchdogs? pCars and witcher?
The only game which managed to sort itself out was Witcher the rest of them are kind of the joke in terms of bugfest. And what all these games have in common? The word starts with letter 'G'.
You say cherry picking, I say he is just wise about what he is buying. With gameworks you are buying cat in the bag, while it has been a while since I last heard about any of AMD titles having some serious issues.

Em, a question. My Seasonic PSU. Would it have an issue with the 3rd fury x? Mind you I am running [email protected] and some 6 or 7hdds/ssds. And obviously when the time comes those furys will be overclocked as well.

BS let me tell you.. Why because I have first hand experience with my 290 gaming edition stock hitting 85c vs water cooled hitting 50-60c and I noticed the difference right away..
From sitting where I am with case next to me it's much, much cooler. Another thing I noticed was just how much quieter and cooler my overall system is and funny enough I do seem to get better performance also.

They don't currently have cards either. They also have tessellation Factor dials to counteract inefficiency, but nice try lol.

Let's go round in circles

Extra tess doesn't do anything other than trash performance.

Plenty of games around that are neither AMD or Nvidia sponsored

But almost every benchmark in Matt's list is an AMD games, like I said not at all cherry picked LMAO

FYI that list is copied from any given benchmark thread on ocuk.. It isn't cherry picked at all. Matt just simply went into one the benchmark threads and QUOTED the post.

Realistically do you think 850w is enough? like, does one Fury use less power than a Titan Black?

Depends on the model of hte PSU i guess m8, mine is handling my spec in sig it draws about 750w at the wall. I think your furys will draw less than these 290x, since im running them at +50-200mv depening on the over clock i run.

What you doing in here? I know for a fact you don't and have never owned a Fury X, Sound familiar?

Oh and yes I was wrong not cherry picked at all LOL (He simply went in and linked the thread, total coincidence)

(Honest)

Agreed, Nvidia have been screwing their own owners over with high Tess in games, look at W3, they've now added a Hairworks slider into the game havn't they via a patch ?, so now they can turn it down too, as they were all up in arms because AMD could boost their performance in it using their Tess slider in their drivers, the hair looked the same as 64x at 16x.

Am interested in owning one and will once new stock has been around.. Am buying once back from holiday by then pump issue should be sorted..

They is a difference between someone who wants to own one and someone who just blatantly coming in here to troll.

At least I have owned a pair of Fury X's which is more than you can say and I bet I buy another Fury X before you get one

Only reason I would not have a pair in my main PC is the lack of HDMI 2 and poor crossfire support, I apologise to everyone in here for having to repeat that but shankly1985 does not have the best record when it comes to paying attention so I find i have to repeat myself for his benefit

It provides finer details due to the smaller more numerous shapes and the performance is far less 'trashed' on cards that can cope with the higher levels, just because it's difficult to see a difference doesn't mean it doesn't do anything.

The whole tessellation factor issue would be mute anyway if AMD GPU's weren't inherently weak at higher levels. For me, it's like when NVidia's FX were weak at FP32 so they ran everything at FP16 which was below spec (ATI were FP24 at the time iirc), you couldn't tell a difference then either but cheating was cheating. I was very much an R9700/9800 Pro, 9800XT owner back in those days.

Silent_Scone · 24 Jul 2015 at 20:16

lol what a debate that is. Considering AMD/ATI were the main backer behind DX11 integration. AMD cards just fall over when the pollys are smaller than 'x' in size because their pipeline is still weaker. Besides this isn't an NVIDIA thread, shouldn't matter what they're (the developers?) are doing.

LoadsaMoney · 24 Jul 2015 at 20:18

Im surprised we havn't seen loads of, 'Nvidia are cheating in the W3' posts now, like we did for AMD, as now they have a slider for the hairworks to turn it down, in the actual game.
