290X has 5.6, wouldn't get too excited since the Ti has the same and whoops its ass ;) :D :p

According to that spec sheet, the Fiji Fury has 128 ROPS, yes 128 ROPS along with 256 TMUs. Then add on HBM etc..

Basically it has grunt like nothing we've ever seen. If you're a PC enthusiast you should be a lil excited. This card is a monster. Only the most biased could be pessimistic about this card if that spec is legit. This is a proper advancement. Looking forward to this and Nvidia's response, although that's likely a year away..

Technically mate I agree, it's going to be a stunner :cool: I *LOVE* ATi/AMD hardware, it's usually top-drawer...

I've just been so disappointed with AMD's driver performance of late that it doesn't even matter to me if it's 20%+ faster than a Ti, I just can't go back to the ****-poor Crossfire profiles and issues with Gameworks titles.

I am however expecting nVidia to go into full Gameworks gimping mode (if they haven't already) :D ;)
 
Its all getting a little bit hyped up. I have a 4Gb 290 and a 4K monitor, not interested in xfire so really looking for a single powerful 8GB card to take on gaming at 4K. The 390X is clearly not that card, the Fury XT or whatever it will be called may be, we shall see, but I honestly cannot see how the 4GB version will suffice and I will not be paying £500 for any 4GB card never mind the rumoured £700+. I see no upgrade path for me at all at the moment. If however the FuryXT/X/ or whatever does come in around £400-£450 I would probably save more cash for the 8GB version later in august. Fingers are crossed very hard. :D

Haha, yeah especially agree with the 'Gimping with Gameworks'. Even then this looks such a beast that it might still be ahead in gimped titles.

With the drivers AMD have been slow lately, but Nvidia have messed has the past few up as well. I've had to go back to 350.12 just to be able to web browse without lock up / freeze and play Witcher 3 without boot back to desktop. So I don't know which is worse slow releasing drivers or releasing drivers quickly that don't work. Both company's can do better. The hardware is what I care most about, drivers always get sorted in the end.
 
10% faster than Tx those links say?

So what's stopping them charging £800 which is still expensive but cheaper than Tx?

Or will they realize people don't want to keep increasing their output and come in under £600?

Because the 980ti has made the Titan X a pointless card so it's the ti they have to beat.

/waits for all of the posts telling him that they need 12gb vram.

Nvidia already have their version of this out in the form of the Titan X and 980Ti. This is AMD's response.

I don't know why people are getting that excited about the specs. The 290x out specs the 980 GTX (see below) but we all know that does not translate so well into gaming performance.


Better floating-point performance
5,632 GFLOPS vs 4,616 GFLOPS More than 20% better floating-point performance

Significantly wider memory bus
512 bit vs 256 bit 2x wider memory bus

More shading units
2,816 vs 2,048 768 more shading units

More texture mapping units
176 vs 128 48 more texture mapping units
