Possible Radeon 390X / 390 and 380X Spec / Benchmark (do not hotlink images!!!!!!)

[Kaapstad]

Fury X will be in huge constraint for whole of June, July unknown.

Fury and Nano probably won't be released this month.

300 series 100's in my warehouse and 390 8GB is great value as it's a true rival to 970 with twice VRAM.

Have benched the 390X yet and compared to the 290X

I am only guessing but I suspect the 390X is a far more polished and refined card than the old 290X.

Glad to see AMD staying competitive.
The specs are promising on paper; I'll reserve judgement until reliable benchmarks hit.

It's amusing to see fanboys get all hyped up over Fury when a few months back they were promising "I'll never buy a card with less than 8GB VRAM because 4k/future proof".

Bah. Still it'll only be out for one week of June so hopefully stock starts flowing in 3 or 4 weeks.

Eh, didn't you get the memo?

Fury is released (to buy) on July the 14th, Fury X the 24th, Nano "summer", and X2 probably autumn.

There's no June ...

Doesn't the Nano make the 390/390X instantly obsolete? Same power and price, with considerably less thirst for wattage.

Inb4 twice but that means it's got 7GB

 

[Kirby Wurm]

In Vulkan and DX12 the extra features and vastly more parallel architecture that is GCN won't go un-used, unlike old DX.

Ah, so those features aren't necessarily compute specific but rather unsupported by most API's until these latest iterationss?

The only thing(s) blown out was every card BUT the TX at 8k.

Looking forward to actually having 8K textures and gaming @ that rez some day... not this year tho.

 

[Kaapstad]

TX BLOWN OUT!!!!!

CONFIRMED!!!!!

Get out of here.

Even the non ref 980 Ti's can do that until you start overclocking both.

I'm guessing the diminutive beast will command a heftier price?

Hugely mistaken, unless AMD produce more Fury X prices on it will be very high, less Fury than there is 980Ti.

We also have 980Ti below the UK RRP of £549 with OcUK model at £539

Well you have just poo'd on this party.

Wonder how well HBM scales at 8gb or 12gb. I presume that the 4gb is getting overrun at 5k+.

Assuming those benchmarks are legit(not sure how they could be).

RAM wont be a massive issue because DOOM 4 and others will be frame capped at 60fps next year

Yes 390X is faster for sure, coolers improved, quieter and around 5-10% boost over old reference 290X, purely due to increased clock speeds.

But those who got 290X 8GB from OcUK at 299 or 4 GB at 209.99 will be laughing because as I warned months ago 390 series are more expensive but the prices are where they should be. The 290X at the prices I did was giving them away but they were selling at 100+ a day at the crazy prices we did a few weeks back.

This is what I was thinking

The 980 was released last September, so Q1 next year is bang on the 15-18 month schedule.

It might but OTH,I doubt it TBH. 14NM/16NM is going to be expensive and we are not sure how good yields will be on it,and since HBM2 is not even in full production yet,there is that unknown.

Nvidia has traditionally not been the first to get to a new process node for years before AMD/ATI and even then they have been more conservative in adopting new memory technology for a while.

So jumping to a new process node and new memory tech would be one of the biggest risks they have taken for years. They have only got to a new process node once before ATI/AMD since 2006.

Also,I did check the cadences again. Titan to Titan X was two years. GTX780TI to GTX980TI was two years. GTX680/GTX770 to GTX980 was 2.5 years. GTX480 to GTX580 was around 17months. GTX280 to GTX480 via the GTX285 refresh was 21 months.

The 390X was said to be $429 + tax, the Fury $549... Not a whole lot of air between them for the Nano to slip in.

Epic Fail Mal lol

Even if the games were capped at 1fps the VRAM usage would be the same as 2000fps.

Going through reviews of the titan x and numbers, the Fury X is a little bit faster than a titan x. Not sure about 4k though so titan X maybe still be in the playing field.

If correct and looking at the leaked benches which look about right, that is bloody amazing for that size of card.
