****Official OcUK Fury X Review Thread****

You know what, i would like to see Kaap and Boom do some 980TI vs Fury-X reviews.

Well they have Titan-Xs which are comparable. Yes 12gb vs 6gb but as the AMD cards have 4gb it doesn't really matter. I guess when a user can do the Ti vs FuryX the results will be similar in over 90%+ of tests.
 
Just watched that Crysis 3 gameplay vid @1440p and 4k, hardly much difference between them @1440p, seems a better res for it to be around the Ti than 1080p, so id get one for 1440p and up, not 1080p.

Also, another review here, that shows it better than the Ti in everything @ 1440p funnily enough, apart from Crysis 3, where its only on avg 3fps slower.

This is an honest question LoadsaMoney. Do you think the majority of Fury/Ti/Titan users will be gaming at 1080p?. High end cards for enthusiasts and most enthusiasts are either 1440p+ or using DSR/VSR I'd think.

@ WhyScotty = lol+2 It would be more fitting for Gregster vs Final8y in that battle (+1 is for your illustrated post of the two words you were thinking regarding my "take on 8pack" suggestion yesterday" :D.

It's a shame all those games are over 2 years old, some of them nearly 3 years old :p

What an odd review.

We will see.

But TBF I would have no problem if AMD just concentrated on the sub £300 market in a decent way. The HD4000 and HD5000 series might have not been the top dogs once Nvidia launched there stuff but it still worked for the market,especially for mobile.

Nvidia has done well since they concentrated more on the midrange recently - the GK104,GM107 and even to a degree the GM204 were small GPUs by Nvidia standards and they all got a lot of laptop design wins.

Think we just need to be realistic AMD are in their Computing and Graphics division over the last year, operating income:

2014 Q1: -$3m
2014 Q2: +$9m
2014 Q3: -$17m
2014 Q4: -$56m
2015 Q1: -$75m

Remember, the R200 series launched in Q4 2013... While i know the C&G division isn't not just GPUs, it's been no secret they've struggled in that area.
 
More like an overclockers wet dream.

Unfortunately even with voltage unlocked I can't see these cards doing 300+ mhz core overclocks like 980ti's are doing on stock voltage.

Erm "overclocker's wet dream" would be an even stronger endorsement than a regular dream...
 
:confused: Let's focus on 1080p when the majority of users will be using 1440p and upwards on their £500+ cards. Also these judgements pushed on by Raven are on immature drivers with no voltage control and on Nvidia promoted games. :D

Let him do what he's doing as logic will prevail.

Don't be trusting me messages on forum topics I aint interested, OK.

As for Nvidia promoted games, I see crysis 3, BF4, ryse, som and tomb raider, hardly all Nvidia now is it.

As for 1080p gaming on an £500 card, lots of people play at 144hz 1080p this requires GPU grunt.
 
Does anyone have contacts at the board partners Gigabyte, XFX, Sapphire and/or ASUS to confirm with them where the OC Software for the Fury X is ?

I am now assuming that there is either a problem they found at the last minute or, they did not have final cards until last week.

I think it highly unlikely that the board partners would all not have software ready for the launch - but there it is.

Can anyone from OCUK get some info from them about this - its causing problems !

They made greater losses due to the fabs overall in previous years,and yet they launched multiple new shrinks.

One of the reasons for their losses has been penalty payments due to the WSA with GF,since they agreed to do a certain amount of business over the next few years. This primarily affects their CPU lines,especially when they had to buy a certain amount of chips,or amend the agreement. So it either led to an oversupply of chips or a penalty payment to GF.

All noise indicated they are moving over more and more of their business to GF.

The console SOCs for example are all made at GF IIRC,and having GPUs with them means they can actually meet those obligations I suspect.

I honestly think a lot of people will still be at 1080p, so I reckon that 1080p is definitely an important area.

Out of a few dozen gamers I personally know and have met at LANs,I know NO gamer who has £500+ cards and are still at 1080P.

Zero.Zilch.

Heck,the three people I know with an Oculus Rift are all running GTX970 cards.

Met benchmarkers and people running 2560 and multiple displays who do have SLI/XFire cards or running the high end single GPU cards.

Not at 1080P though.

Its only going to get worse when cheaper G-Sync and Freesync 1080p displays will be out.

AOC already have a 1080p Freesync display for £230 which is being released soon.
