Poll: Fury X Owners. Would you buy the Fury X again if you could do it all over again?

With hindsight, would you buy the Fury / Fury X again?

Instead of posting cherry picked and very dodgy third party graphs why don't you post some of your own results.

Use maximum settings as in the benchmark threads to remove CPU bottlenecks and see how you get on against people with TXs and GTX 980 Ti's.

The thing all your graphs overlook is TXs and GTX 980 Ti's are an overclockers dream.

I just wanted to post some benchmarks. If you want a more average look at things then you can see here:

Anyone who knows about crossfire vs SLI knows that AMD scales better as they used XDMA.
 
A Fury X with a standard air cooler would be poor as the cards are very temperature sensitive.

With the AIO cooler the Fury X will clock higher than the air cooled Fury P. If you fit custom waterblocks to a Fury X it will overclock quite well on stock volts and reach around 1150mhz on the core. With a custom water block the Fury X runs around 38c which is quite impressive.

You are right about this.
 
You really are clutching at straws.

I can write more and worse horror stories about my own Fury Xs if I wanted to but that would really be being petty as cards and PCs do get problems.

I also notice a number of your links refer to cards other than TXs and 980 Ti's and if you know much about GPUs you could see what their problems were.

As to overclocking Fury Xs TRIXX is rubbish if you have mixed cards from different AIB partners, AB is far better.

No, it was just to show that Maxwell can't always hold 1200 stable but in general Maxwell does overclock well. Besides, I would like to post mine but I don't have much time but it is interesting to see what other have gotten with TriXX. Generally in the 1180 - 1210 core and 550 - 600 from what I have seen.
 
Stop quoting others and post some of your own.

Looking at some of the memory clocks you have quoted you don't seem to know how the memory on the Fury X works.

Anyone who has a Maxwell card that can not do 1200 would RMA it lol. My 980 Ti's can hold over 1500mhz all day on air in SLI.

Not necessarily. A lot of people are happy with their stock 980 Ti's. I know a couple of them as it runs most games fine. It was to point out that not all Maxwell overclock well. It all depends on how well your ASIC is.
 
Fortunately I have 4 each of the above cards and I know different to this graph you posted.

I tried running Shadow of Mordor this morning on a pair of GTX 980 Ti's and a pair of Fury Xs maxed @2160p and got reminded of something -

My GTX 980 Ti's managed 80fps stock and 90fps overclocked.

My Fury Xs managed 10fps stock and no point in overclocking. This was due to XDMA being an epic failure and the cards running out of memory.

You do know that one game doesn't represent all FYI.

So, basically crossfire doesn't work on Shadow of Mordor?

Why do you have two 980 Ti's and two Fury X's? You have two swooped up Gaming Rigs?

Have you tried Rise of the Tomb Raider all maxed out with Very High textures in a single Fury X (with FXAA is fine I don't need SMAA) at 1440P? I read on HardOCP that they were able to max it out despite it needing 4GB for Very High Texture settings because it uses System RAM for the rest of the 1 - 2GB of memory that is needed.
