Looks like Gibbo wasn't lying when he said the 980ti was faster last week, thought he may have been doing it just to sell more 980ti's but looks like he was being honest.

Not long now, there's a Fury sub section on the store!!

With the 980ti's now down to £500ish, this is going to look pretty pointless.
You may as well wait at least an hour to read the other ones?
Looks like the 980 TI has the edge though
If the price settles around the £500 mark, it's a winner, no doubt. We don't know these cards can't be OC'd yet, and if they can be in the future, plus as drivers mature, it's more than a viable alternative to the 980Ti. Factor in Freesync and buying into that ecosystem at a much lower cost than G-Sync, and you're looking at hundreds of pounds saving for equivalent (and in some cases better) performance. Anyone dismissing the Fury X is simply not seeing the bigger picture here.

AMD needs to price it cheaper too.

In B4 Meltdown.
ocuk 980ti is same price as that reviews RRP and beats it and looks like from that OC is naff on fury X 9% to 10 -15 on Nvidia ref

Give it a few weeks until stock settles down and the prices will drop. I assure you, buying one now will see you lose a fair chunk on it pretty quickly.
If that bothers you of course, and you don't mind pruning your money tree you have in the back garden.
£600 for me. And that's for two. I will wait.....
I don't care about the SPEED of the 980ti. I care about the price. And it's too much money right now. I thought AMD were taking the pee when they released the 7970 for £439 (the same price as the 3gb 580) but £500+ is a joke. Especially as the shelf life of these cards is being reduced with every launch.
Sod it. Holding firm, £600 for two, that's it...
Soldato
Indeed. I'd be interested to know how many of the 300 series has sold so far.
No its not. Without the furyx, do you not think a 980ti would have been £700 to £750?
Its great for everybody, Nvidia has had to drop 980ti price to around £500 cause AMD are competing.
Thats great news fro everybody.
Hm, i would probably wait if i wanted one. I reckon AMD will have to drop the price further to get decent sales compared to the 980Ti. If RRP is £550, aio cooler or not, the 980Ti will sell better.
Good that there is some competition for Nvidia's big die cards now though.

Wonder if amd will get the same stick regarding the locked voltage as NVidia did.
Why? SImilar eprformance and watercooled built in for the same money? You take your choices. They wont need to drop the price below £500 unless Nvidia do as well.

How about a reviews thread....
