The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

Nvidia cards boost up-to 1450Mhz they don't run at that speed at a constant like the AMD cards.

They do if they are not held back by temps or power limit, both of which can be changed via software.

Mine is being collected today by a competitor.

I'll find out if I have any issues with the return over the new few days, I'm also finding out if they can confirm replacements are with revised pumps (if not I'll go for a refund).

Looks like it's down to the indivdual retailer then or i guess official RMA. Glad you're getting it sorted.

 

[RavenXXX2]

GTA V it is. Leave it with me and I will record that and AB shows up, so no problems seeing what is what. Work at 2pm, so will need to be done tonight as well.

Cheers much better with monitoring on.

Pmsl, IQ-gate

Lol. Everyone loves a good Gate.

 

[40Four]

This.

Take a maxwell card's boosting out of the box to around 1200Mhz + overclock to 1450Mhz is about 20%

A GTX 980 and R9 290X on the latest Drivers are about even @ 1440P

The average overclock on a 290X is 1150Mhz, thats 15%.

The difference is a 290X running at 1150Mhz is a 290X running at 1150Mhz, no more no less unless you have the Powerplay settings at 0 or are strangled by the CPU.

Nvidia cards boost up-to 1450Mhz they don't run at that speed at a constant like the AMD cards.

So easy to get caught up in the raw numbers though. Marketing at it's best.

Did the AMD run and just need to do the Titan X run, which will be done after work. At least it is easy to install drivers and switch lanes. DDU makes life simple

using this;

"Download Display Driver Uninstaller DDU" ?

PS when saying switch lane Greg, do you mean physical switch off then swap around the GPU's ?

Just out of interest is it not possible to leave both sets of drivers installed and disable/enable each card as needed?

No, nvidia drivers tend to interfere with AMD ones.

Yer, that's the one. I have both cards installed on PCI-E x16 slots and just switch one on and the other off via mobo switches. Connect the monitor to the one I am using and off I go. Takes less than 2 minutes to do that and install drivers.

It is but I don't want any conflicts, so better to just have the AMD drivers or Nvidia drivers on depending on the card being used. Saves any grief and with this lot, they will rip anything apart that isn't 100% fair

 

[Lokken86]

Yer, I have done

Oddly, the VRAM usage on the Fury is half of what it is on the TX.... Any idea's? Memory compression perhaps?

Possibly.

[humbug]

Well i have to say i'm not a sharp eyed one, who picks on everything, but in the last BF video the difference is clearly standing out in IQ on the Furys favor.

At the start blurred road and lines on the road on TX

Spoiler

Curb and road looks washed/blurred on TX

Spoiler

Again road surface and signs on the road are crappy looking

Spoiler

Line on the road seems to wash away a few meters from viewpoint while on FX it runs to the distance

Spoiler

Building in the back are much sharper on FX although it is further back viewpoint

Spoiler

Blue roadsign is sharp on the FX a blurred mess on TX

Spoiler

I do not play BF so i'm not a pro, but those caught my eye in the video.

Thanks for the effort Gregster, those are great comparisons.

I'm with you on this one, the Image quality on the Titan-X is pretty poor.

Not as much detail as the Fury-X, it is blurry and washed-out. There is also a lot more ghosting on the TX, Despite the TX apparently rendering higher FPS its not actually putting them on screen, hence the ghosting.

 

[40Four]

No, nvidia drivers tend to interfere with AMD ones.

Presumably no way to disable the driver itself without un-installation, since normally you would only use one vendor at a time anyway.

Lol. Yeah i've lurking long enough to know the grief you occasionally get.

>> this "via mobo switches"
on board motherboard switches ?

sorry for hassle very interested in doing this atm, thanks Greg.

What? Ghosting = not real fps?

its a LOD difference between amd and nvidia on driver level. Also the colors on amd are a bit better. You change your LOD settings with radeonpro if you want

Yer, I have a Rampage IV Formula that has PCI-E lane switches (4 of them) and I can switch lanes off and on with the switches.

never knew that option existed on motherboards, and very nice to know. thanks Greg.

If if there is no new frame it will refresh the old one. Because its the same frame its effectively two of the same frame on screen at slightly different positions causing an overlap that results in ghosting. The FPS counter reads output. That includes multiple of the same frame from the cache. This is very different to what is actually rendering in the GPU. FX seems to be rendering more new frames while the TX is refreshing old ones.
