Haha probably, but then again, it would switch itself off or set itself on fire if it was overheating and faultyOr you're got an eco mode thats broken.

The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread
- Thread starter Kaapstad
- Start date
Most 4K TV's support 4K at 60hz over HDMI 2.0, but the numpties at AMD thought it better to go with the 2009 HDMI 1.4 standard that only supports 30hz at 4K, whichever way you look at it thats a really stupid decision for a manufacturer releasing a £500 graphics card in 2015.
Then to come out and say "Oh an adapter will be out soon that will fix it" confirms they know they cocked up.

I don't think the adapter is a "fix" so much as catering to people who use TVs instead of monitors for their PC. I had to buy a DP to DVI adapter to connect my 2nd monitor - is that AMD's fault too?

Yes, because everyone is out there running 1200+ OC's on their FuryX's aren't they
If you wanted to run "oc to oc" then it should be a 1450-1500 980ti vs, what, an 1150 FuryX?
As those are the numbers we see most often
Saying they should both be run at 15% is nonsense, they should both be run at a fair representation of what you are likely to get if you buy one.

He should get a power reader for the socket the PC plugs into (Don't included monitors etc). I had one, and it should my L3600 was only pulling a max of around 50W when running at full pelt.

Not yet their not. All I'm saying is that would be apples to apples.

I dare say no one is because we don't have the tools to yet. I can manage just over 1150 on stock volts so I'm pretty keen on seeing what I can get once the new Afterburner releases.
But he's right - you're thinking comparing stock to stock is not fair (don't understand that myself) but thinking highly OC to stock is fair comparison?
I'm not bothered about power usage. Of I was I wouldn't be folding 24/7 with GPUs
my post was just an observation

it IS stock for stock - they bought that card and ran it at the default settings
it isn't Nvidia's fault that AMD aren't allowing after market FuryX's
Hardly the same thing, why not simply include HDMI 2 support in the first place? no one I have asked has an answer including AMD reps probably because the answer would be pure incompetence by AMD.
AMD's Fury launch has been a disaster, whinegate lies claiming only reviewer models were affected, Overclockers dream, No HDMI 2 support, no stock.

Really
. OC by default does not mean its stock clocks. Then the G1 is a stock 980TI and blitzes the fury x. Why don't you just use that for your argument.

You know its your fault for buying a hmdi 2.0 TV right
Considering Nvidia's HDMI 2.0 functionality is gimped renders your point moot.
This is the real deal. Not some gimped chroma sampling.

Incompetence?
Ask Nvidia engineers why there HDMI 2.0 version is gimped before spreading FUD around

AMD have full ungimped HDMMI 2.0 with this adaptor.
Nvidia is gimped sampling HDMI 2.0. Get your facts straight.

Not my fault if you don't seem to want to recognise the difference between Reference and Aftermarket both being real products you can buy and run out of the box at default clocks, vs. manually overclocking
manually overclocked both cards will do more than what was shown in that review, where to exactly depends on exactly which aftermarket 980ti you are looking at, and with FuryX in stock prices still all over the show it isn't as clear cut as saying "for around the same price" as even the aftermarket 980ti's currently ARE around the same price

I don't think it is so much people gaming primarily on their TV, but for certain games and certain times it is fun to play on the TV
If I had to guess, I would say that AMD want people to stop using HDMI so they can stop paying the HDMI tax. It's certainly something I would like to see happen.
