I haven't really put too much effort into determining which to go for. The MSI does look to be offering excellent performance staying very quiet.

The current deals that OCUK have are pretty solid. I believe their is a decent deal on caseking for a 980ti gaming g1 as well.

Decisions decisions

I was just in touch with them, they are now babbling about issuing me a credit note when before it was a refund. Hopefully somebody just has his wires crossed.

If you want to minimise the risk of having to send something back & wish to have a card that's pretty much 99% of the speed but notably quieter, go for the G6! (at a very nice price on OCUK also atm).

Do let me k ow how you get on. I would say it is just someone taking a chance and offering credit note instead. Still l, they shouldn't be hesitant.

I'm going to hold out for them to arrange collection themselves

Yeah they said it can be a refund if i want, still processing it apparently.

Hmmm Sapphire one installed.

Theres definitely a background noise with an irritating freq and it increases under load :/

Has anyone contacted OCUK recently and seen if they honoured returns for it recently, As I know people had problems earlier?

Its daft. its not loud at all but once heard it cannot be unheard.

~edit~ nope. benchmarks reveal a pretty bad coil/pump ... screech

My Fury X EK water block has arrived, now I just need a card to put it on...

Chewie · 17 Jul 2015 at 00:18

@Gibbo and/or @OC UK staff, can we get an indication if realistically you are expecting to have some Sapphire cards in stock tomorrow (ETA showing 17/07 currently)?

Deleted User 234324 · 17 Jul 2015 at 07:32

Likewise for the HIS cards also due in today. I highly doubt they will for some reason.

Nutella33 · 17 Jul 2015 at 09:09

The Sapphire I got was from here and meant to be from today but it was delivered on Tues. Unless it was a repacked one, they must be coming in drips

Cherry picked

I have owned the Fury X in crossfire and now have the 980ti in SLI, 980ti is way quicker apart from some games at 4k where it is close, at 1080P it's embarrassing in a lot of games how much quicker the 980's are.

If however you ONLY game at 4K then its not a bad choice but you're then at AMD's mercy when it comes to crossfire driver support for the latest titles

Post some game benchmarks for comparison in the following bench threads, I'd be interested to see how the multi gpu scaling is for you.

Two of these cards are wasted at 1080P in my opinion.

Most people game at 1080P, I game at 4K on my TV but unfortunately could not test my Fury's at 4K on my TV for some reason that escapes me

I liked the cards and they were plenty quick enough for me, I was simply saying the 980's are quicker in most games and would have still had the Fury's had it not been for the pump issues.

Each to their own of course. The Fury is targeted at 4K gaming where it's very competitive and runs in the 50C range.

I look forward to seeing your benchmarks in those threads.

i doubt most crossfire or sli users game at 1080p. Most likely multiple screen setups or higher res.

Did these cards get the overclocking potential sorted ? I know AMD was saying something they will be great overclockers.

"Most people game at 1080p"
Yeah and MOST PEOPLE don't spend £1k on graphics cards either. Lmfao.

Sadly not. Somehow its taking absolutely forever for third party tools to unlock the voltage. Unwinder said its almost ready but not quite apparently.
