**AMD Fiji Thread**

[Rusty0611]

The 295X2 was 4GB as well. 4GB per GPU.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Do you mean to say fury x2 will not be 8gb but rather a measly 4gb ??????? This was not the case with 295x2.

295x2 had 4GB per GPU - as will Fury X2 (most likely), and will be advertised as 8GB much like 295x2

VRAM stacks now dosnt it using this new HBM?

 

[ratters]

Im sure someone else can answer it better than you have.

Why no one know really, it would be speculation and therefore would not be good advice.

Nope. DX12 can use this but noones planning to at the moment. Not one game.

Hi, no. This is known as asynchronous crossfire or split frame rendering. No game to date stacks video memory.

It will have 8GB, but only 4GB per core, like the 295x2. The memory data is mirrored so each core can work on exactly the same data

Am sorry but you dont truly know this. Not one us on this forum can make that claim. Unless you working on a game that is

i am grateful to silent_scone for bringing this vram stack issue to my attention.

I no longer see ANY reason to wait for the fury x2 anymore.

thank you

Hopefully someone here can answer this, can the fan be switched on the radiator?

Almost certainly yes as the fan is a Gentle Typhoon with an AMD sticker on it.

Would this cooling setup work?

If anyone is planning on using it at the moment its only the very odd game and far far from mainstream.

From what I recall though the main use of those type of features is to allow the developer to hand off discrete data to be rendered/processed on additional GPUs then composited back into the main program - rather than to increase the amount of VRAM available directly to the main process.

I have similar, but i will just install the Fury X at the back, and put intake fans at the lower front and the bottom

It would work - your gonna need some dust filters on the bottom though :S and you'll have to make sure your pulling enough in from the bottom which the filters won't help with (might require having a fairly high speed fan) i.e. something like https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-055-NB

EDIT - didn't refresh, fast thread.

Tried that with my 295x2 and it was crap. You're probably better off mounting it to the front intaking and letting the rear exhaust and top exhausts deal with the heat it gives off. You're already liquid cooling your cpu so shouldn't make much difference overall.

I'd reverse that top left 120 to pull air IN to the case, not exhausting. The hot air from the fury has already exited, use the top 120 to supply fresh air to the top rad.

The way you have it seems like there will be a lot of pressure, and not enough cool air.

Ek is working on a block for the fury X

Have the H105 as intakes (assuming you have a dust filter at the top)
Have the 120mm fan at the back as your exhaust, if you can fit a 140mm do that.
Have the FuryX as intakes at the front (assuming that you have a dust filter)
Don't need to have a 120mm intake at the bottom, serves no purpose.

Just my 2p

Hi, worth noting that the Furyx2 will still be a dual GPU part and thus with Crossfire will be considerably faster than the card being launched this week. My initial point to you was that it's impossible for anyone here to comment on it's performance - you can however rest assured it will be quicker. The problem here sprouts from misleading marketing with all dual gpu cards. It's easy for vendors to rope people in by stating the total amount of VRAM on the board, despite the fact it does not work that way.
