I would take those figures with a pinch of salt.
A pair of TXs for example on Heaven 4 using the same settings manage over 52fps. Admittedly the TXs are overclocked but the point still stands.

They are using a stock 6700k and the card is running at 991mhz from what i can see. With a top temp in heaven of 49 i assume Firestrike will be the same, there should be room for at least fury X clocks. Still for gaming unless you really need crossfire and want to use one slot it's pointless. None the less some of the numbers of power and temps are impressive. Was there not talk of the pump/radiator not being enough to cool this.

My 2 air cooled 980 Ti's using the same settings as wccftech
Different machines and different clocks. There Ti was getting no where close to that even if you doubled it's score. 100% scaling on there ti would have given it 44.5. 100% scaling on a Fury X would have given just over 40. If i am not mistaken your Ti's are kingpins lol which off course are going to give much higher scores on a Bench that Favours Nvidia. I am not disputing any 2 single cards are a much better deal if thats what you are trying to prove.
It's 2 massive chips on one board running at 49oc while only using 20w more than a gtx980ti. That's what impressed me as a lot of people were saying it would be hot, the cooler was not up to the job for something that will use tons of power.

Yes I was using an older inferior CPU.
Yes I was using air cooled cards, check the temps.
Yes I was using stock volts.
Yes I was using a stock bios.
Being serious for a minute, there is hardly any difference when you use Kingpins on air and a stock bios when it comes to performance. There are guys on these forums who use reference cards that get better performance than I do lol.
The real point I am making is a couple of GM200 GPUs are a long way ahead on the Heaven 4 bench @2160p.

So you do a benchmark at 1531 core on 2 gtx980ti's on a not inferior 6 core cpu. There's is a 4 core 6700 so you should still be ahead in good threaded benches. Like it really matters at 4k anyhow on a primarily gpu based bench. To boot it's a heavily Nvidia favoured Bench. I doubt there is anyone on this forum who did not expect you to wipe the floor with 2 downclocked Fury X cores when you would wipe the floor with 2 overclocked Fury's X's.
Point taken but you did not need to prove this in the first place
My only reason for mentioning Heaven in the first place is that's what they are using as a bench to test power usage (292w) and temperature (49oc). I was never marvelling at the fps numbers.

My 4930k is garbage on Heaven 4 compared to a 6700k, in fact it is rubbish compared to my 3930k in the same PC for reasons I have never managed to pin down.
I think it was not a good move for them to use Heaven 4 but they did, this left them open to people comparing their own scores from other GPUs.
I don't think people should take any figures posted on sites like wccftech seriously and should wait for proper reviews done by reputable tech sites.

Heaven is standard Benchmarking practise these days on a lot of sites. I see no point in hiding the score.
It's a copy and paste job another site. Here is the real site.

Heaven 4 may be used a lot on sites but that does not tell you very much about AMD cards.
It is far better to use other software to test the gaming abilities of AMD cards.
Having said that for some weird reason when overclocking Fiji cards Heaven 4 and Valley show the results better than the Futuremark benches.
