**AMD Fiji Thread**

Not long now, will be doing a full system purchase if it's impressive enough.

The benchmarks seem inconsistent at best, so I'll reserve judgement on those. I also still need to see how it over-clocks with additional voltage.

I'm just hoping that It's an over-clockers dream' comment wasn't BS, as if I swing towards the 980ti or Fury will depend highly upon it.
 
It is an overclockers dream in the sense the cooler can dissipate up to 500w of heat, but that doesn't mean the core will overclock any where remotely near as high, nor the board not throttle amperage before you get close :p
 
Surely the whole "Overclockers dream" comment at E3 and the confirmation that the card very much had overclockrs in mind in a webinar I attended yesterday is not marketing bluster? They would not be that short term would they?
 
There's not many ways you can look at it mate. You've got two buses to overclock, memory and GPU core frequency. One we're pretty sure is locked down - which fair enough will likely because of reasons that are detrimental to performance. The other we know from sources seems to have a 100-200mhz frequency range at stock voltage.

So if Fiji does happen to scale well with voltage, and under the AIO cooler you could well have some tasty core clocks. It can only be based on how well or not well Fiji overclocks and scales with additional voltage. If it doesn't much at all, then it's not really an overclockers dream lets face it.
 
As long as we get voltage control this will overclock to at least 1300Mhz. My old 7950 clocks from 850mhz to 1200MHz with only a small voltage bump.

At 1300MHz+ I can see the Fury beating the TitanX for a little over 500 quid. The AIO cooling should allow even higher clocks though.
