**AMD Fiji Thread**

The engineers actually tested Fury X passive at stock and the thermal limit was not reached after hours of gaming this is how good this cooler is. Not suggesting you guys should run like that but just saying.

Does that mean it should be safe to mod the BIOS to allow fanless idle? as that's the potential deal breaker for me and I was planning to wait for a Fury Strix/Gaming, but if the Reference one can be modded to only use the fans under load that would be great.
 
I've had nothing but stellar support from Asus after sales :)

to the extent that if i buy brand new i only buy Asus,

I am glad you have because my DSL-AC68U still doesn't work properly, as don't many others, and Asus have disappeared and it seems refuse to help now...
 
Sorry that pics a bit dark, do you mean you had the rad on a bottom fan mount drawing air in from outside or that it was just loose in the case?

Loose in bottom of the case, so not drawing in fresh air and not exhausting the air, so very impressive indeed. :)

Resolution was 1080P.

Pointless though, there is still a pump which won't be silent/noiseless, so would be a pretty pointless modification because the fan at 15% is hardly audible.
 
I'd guess.

Stock 1000/1050 = Matching stock TI (beating some games/losing others).
1200 over-clock = Matching/beating most overclocked 980ti - losing to G1.
1300+ over-clock= potentially beating 980ti G1.

For Fury X I would speculate:

1.2v = 1.1GHZ
1.3v = 1.2GHZ
1.4v = 1.3GHZ
 
Hi,

Temperature is only one factor. HBM is very low voltage. It's current that kills and memory ic as compacted as this is likely to not handle voltage well, may even be dead spots in stablity by doing this.

Ah you meant vram oc then...i thought you meant it will degrade from the gpu oc/heat
