Yes AMD and partners has Fury demo behind closed door, selected people and press had to signed NDA have to see Fury running demos and benchmarks, Fury struggled to outperformed 980 Ti. It would be embarrassed if Fury performance slower than 390X in most benchamarks when we see reviews in 2 weeks.
His extra sauce on top of the completed dish (the article)?Where did you get that part from?
Indeed. I am waiting for pascal/next gen. I think Pascal will give a huge performance increase as it will be on a 14 or 16nm process with HBM2 etc.
So, is it more or less confirmed that the Fury won't have 8 GB HBM now?
It's looking like 4 gigglybits

they already told us that 4GB at start 8GB in august.
If the performance is any good (give or take 10% of Ti/TX) the 8GB should be something to look out for. AMD are going to have to do something special on the price though. Nvidia have everything covered at 549.99 for the GTX980Ti.
I know it matters very little to most users here but I'm wondering what the card with HBM will be like for extreme users as in LN2 cooling as not all memory likes going cold so this could be potentially a problem with the chips being next to the die, only time will tell...
I want to game at 1440p on a single card at high to ultra settings. The Witcher 3, GTA V, Fallout 4 whenever it comes along. I'm probably asking for a bit too much but there we are.
Basically, my choices as I see it are a GTX 980 Ti or whatever the hell AMD are announcing on the 16th - I see no reason to consider the Titan for my needs given the cost. Seeing as how I've not had an Nvidia card for many years and I've had no particular issues with my AMD cards over the years, I'd prefer to stay with AMD and give them my business - we need competition.
If (we don't know yet) the Radeon card is only 4GB (could be an issue in some games at 1440p?), runs hotter and uses more power, I think they're asking me to make too many concessions. Obviously price is a factor but I'm happy to pay for a 980 Ti - if the Radeon card is £100 cheaper but has the issues mentioned, it is hard to see it as a strong alternative to a 980 Ti for my needs.
Or am I wrong?

Performance is will of course be a factor but I'm not yet convinced there will be a big difference.
