They already leaked the reviewer's guide and the teardown... I'd say that's pretty good leakage.
It wasn't leaked. AMD allowed them to release it early.

still DX11 tho.
why wouldnt they be?
some weird shiet is going on lol, now ppl blame AMD for a TOO GOOD of a Driver, live and learn
Funny
Die shrink wont happen early.
I think people assume to much here, its a 596mm2 die and thats huge even with die shrink yields gonna go down on a new node so we are a long way from that die shrink. I expect august or so next year.
what will happen is that HBM2 will come to a 28nm fury if they planned for it and I am sure they did. First cards with HBM 1 and HBM2 will belong to AMD.

Something doesn't seem right about the benchmark numbers that were released, I'm currently playing Sleeping Dogs so thought I'd compare numbers.
Here's theirs -
And here's mine on a single Titan X with the exact same settings, Something look a bit off on the 980 Ti score above to anyone compared with these numbers ?
Considering a 980 Ti and TX aren't exactly leagues apart in performance -

cant compare like that.
If you do you can have all kinds of different variables introduced.
buy FuryX and then compare on your system as its the only way to do it right.
Soldato
I did...
Care to point out what I missed ?
Considering a 980 Ti and Titan X are pretty damn close to each other performance wise I can't see these numbers being correct.

its called off topic.
your about to recive a suspension if you continue.
dont people read forum rules here?
Soldato
Off topic and suspension ? Didn't realize things got so police state and nazi like around here.
It isn't off topic, It's sensible discussion as Boomstick777 stated in the opening post.
I saw the figures for the "Leaked" benchmarks and compared them to a Titan X which is within like 2% of a 980 Ti and I find it a little odd to see such weird numbers.
Hopefully these are complete crud and the Fury X blows our socks off.
Soldato
Ahh ok thanks bud, Still the numbers do look a little off in some of the games, Hopefully this is just very early driver teething issues
taking it personal? off topic is off topic however you phrase it.
adding that comment shows no concern either for the forum rules or mods.
I already gave you the proper answer, buy Fury x run it in your machine compare really simple.
Soldato
Not taking it personal I just find it to be extremely odd behaviour to ban someone for a week or more for simply comparing the card I am going to buy next week to one I currently own, Very disturbing behaviour.
Anyway I'm looking forward to getting my Fury X next week

I just saw something interesting:

Look at the GPU section, that appears to be an interposer with 2 GPUs on it? Amkor are the company who produced the interposer for AMD. I believe it is also possible to make them bigger than the reticle size of the lithography apparatus (~650mm2), either by "stitching" or some other means. Here is a patent I found in google from Xilinx published this year:
https://www.google.com.ar/patents/US8957512
So could we see multiple high-end GPUs on the same silicon?

So in theory we could have 4 Fiji GPU's on 1 x PCB if we could have 2 GPU's per silicon die thing majiggy ?
Imagine the power, 34 TFLOPS

Yup, the interposer is made of silicon so if the chips are connected through that it's like being on the same die, very fast. Perhaps they can even figure out a way to connect all 4 without a PLX chip. Obviously it would be quite a feat of engineering and managing the heat would probably require liquid cooling but it seems possible in the next few years or so.
Soldato
This is some of the most exciting GPU news I've heard in a while, I really hope this comes to fruition

No you're just trying to ram your opinion down other people's throats.
Comparing benchmark results of the Fury X to other cards is completely on topic.

Something for the op, memory is locked out from overclocking. At least from within Overdrive.
