Voltage won't be locked for long, I think an overclocked Fury X will edge an overclocked 980ti but there's not going to be a lot in it by the sounds of things.

Rgr that setter, just itching to get back gaming, just finished building my new rig and all it needs is the gpu.

For those getting one, I hope Gibbo has a poor one and the others clock better. We need competition and looking about, the Ti's really do clock well all round it seems.

Same here mate, currently haven't got a gpu either. Onboard gpu that only works on my telly and not my monitor.

So the Ti is faster than the Fury X and cheaper. This doesn't sound good for AMD
The G1 TI is in a league of it's own check out the review on guru3d. It smashes a Titan X into dust. No way a stock fury X will beat that.

I would assume that when the TX is overclocked, it also beats the G1. Hopefully it is just a crap clocker that Gibbo has and crappy drivers are holding it back.
What do you mean you don't think so?
You do realise I have one don't you? Right now there is no voltage control as as I have the same press kit as reviewers the surely AMD would enable if if they thought was safe to win more reviews/awards.

I meant that i agree with you that they won't leave the voltage locked...and no i don't think the gpu temp ruin the HBM chips.
Fury X launch is 24th at 13:00 so just wait, go in eyes wide open.
In the meantime I shall try to get voltage unlocked and pester AMD for updates, Fury is a brand new technology and the card could have huge amounts more performance to come from both driver updates and overclocking.
It is also surprisingly quick at 4k, infact the higher the resolution the better it performs, which has to be the HBM.

The G1 is an aftermarket PCB built for overclocking. The TX is only available as reference so tends to top out around 1400, where the G1 will go north of 1500 pretty easily.
I know the score, I've been here a lot longer than my join date and have seen Gibbo work elsewhere after OCUK many moons ago. Put my post in picture form with me as a witch stirring a massive cauldron and you might be given the moniker "Columbo"
. (Not now that I've told you though 
)I was joking at smashing the NDA due to the information that the 980Ti being seen as KOTH at the end of the year. It may not be breaking the NDA but it's poking the bear so to speak. However, early drivers etc means this could all change.

Think Kaap stated in the 980ti owner thread that an oc'd G1 beats an oc'd watercooled titan x. Will be interesting to see how fury x stacks up.

To be fair, could you unlock Titan X voltage at launch? Not with Afterburner.

Rgr that Gibbo,
I hope performance at 4K is decent, Picked up the AOC 4K u2868pqu Saturday from Ocuk ready for it.
Come the 24th @12:59 i'll be hammering f5
, btw Gibbo, could you give us an indication as to how much stock you've got? i don't want to blink and see that i've missed out.

They did say in the presentation that fury x is an overclockers dream so I'm confident it will be great with that cooler and unlocked voltage control.

IIRC it was added to AB fairly quickly as the vreg was a well-known part that was already used in another board.
It's a lot harder to regulate voltage and timings with HBM that's why Intel etc are using HMC and why there isn't voltage for mem with Fiji yet. If the core voltage is tied to the mem like Hawaii I can see why core isn't available yet either.
