Wipes the floor with Titan X in Far Cry 4. Impressive stuff.

Not very good in Pcars.

But by the time lots of DX12 games come out, Pascal and AMD's die shrink cards with HBM 2 will be out and this will look slow in comparison.

I certainly wouldn't buy any card right now with my sights set on Dx12.

This is a decent point and another reason for me not to buy a Fury X or 980ti. I'l probably just clock a regular 8gb 390 and be done with it. Sell up after dx12 does come and go for 2nd gen HBM.

This reminds me of the the 6800 series with shader model 3. Good feature but those cards just weren't good enough to run it. I feel like all these cards will be the same when dx12 arrives and be massively beaten by the next gen.

Performance is generally in line with what I expected it to be - holding its own against the 980Ti/ Titan X, although ultimately being slightly slower than both of them. I have to say I was hoping the Fury X would beat them both, just so that AMD could be on top for the first time in what seems to have been ages, but I suppose at £510 it is relatively competitively priced anyway.

Agreed, it's a shame really because unless AMD beats Nvidia's by a huge margin. There will always be people that troll whatever AMD launch.

From what I've seen Fury X looks really impressive. It wins and it loses, in a variety of games. We've seen impressive performance in Metro LL, Evolve, Far Cry 4, Tomb Raider, Shadow of Mordor, Assassin's Creed Unity, Witcher 3, Arkham Knight, Alien Isolation, Civilisation and more.

It runs around 50c and uses about 40 watts more than TX. I think this is impressive but it will never be enough unless it wins in every single game by a wide margin and costs less.

I don't see what more AMD can do tbh. Would like them to stick around.
 
Dying Light and pcars are games I have zero interest in.

I'd go as far as saying DL is objectively complete gash. FC4 on the other hand is true AAA broad appeal.
 
I'm still on the fence and waiting for user reviews, particularly Kaap and Boom with their Titan X comparison. Hopefully all this negative stuff will push the price down. From what I have read the reviews are all over the place and therefor cannot be trusted. Will be going Win 10 in July and will wait till then as that's when I'll know for sure. :)
 
Not bothered about beating the TX or Ti me, if it was around equal, losing some, winning some, it would have done me fine, but the peformance is just all over the place, yes its doing that in some, but in others, even the 980 is beating it, and its struggling to beat even their nigh on 2yr old 290X, which they just brought back out.
 
It's good, but it's not Carling.

I'd certainly hoped it would be better than the 980ti at 1440p :(

For the sake of comparison, how much performance improvement did later drivers provide against the initial release for the base reference 980?? (980ti too recent, and accepting that in reality Amd driver releases are slower than Nvidia)... E.g bf4 on the 980 at release compared to now.

What pee'd me off the most is AMD have pretty much forced me to buy Nvidia now, their ineptitude and inability to bring anything worthwhile to the table means I'm forced to give those shady shiesters Nvidia my dosh.

Don't think I can ever forgive them for that!!! ;)

Looking at that heat image it paints a worrying picture, would imagine the air cooled gimped fury cards will be somewhat cooler however will probably struggle to put perform a 960 at 1080p

I'm tempted to jack in my PC altogether and just stick to console gaming especially now there are plenty of mmorpgs available and they are pretty much all I play nowadays lol

I guess if all you want to play is FC4 and any others on the Boomstick cherry picked bench tests, The Fury X is for you.

You do realise he still owns and is going to continue to own a Titan-X even with the FuryX?. It really just shows your own intentions in your posting rather than you assuming you're exposing his. :o

Regardless of what you think, those benchmarks exist and as I've said many a time, thankfully BoomStick and Kaapstad will expose the truth about these cards. You do also realise there is no over-voltage at the present moment?. That alone might change things as well as driver improvements so I think a few people on this site need to calm down with their snap judgements and let things play out how they are going to. If AMD come short, their pricing will reflect that in time.
 
Well the place I bought my Fury from that had stock when I ordered and then confirmed via phone that I would get it tomorrow have just emailed me... They tell me that they don't have stock and the stock that I ordered was due a couple of days ago but it has still not turned up...

So, to buy a Fury I would have had to pay well over the odds here or buy from the place that lied about stock levels. Given all the reviews, maybe it's a bullet dodged. I'll void my order tomorrow given I have no idea when it will turn up and place a new order for a 980ti. Just got to choose one now, one that's actually in stock.
