Hi Fury X owners.

I have pre-ordered a Vive.

Currently I have a GTX980 and am thinking about swapping it out for a FuryX.
What kind of performance increase would you think I would be looking at?

Also looking at the ones in OC store I can't see any obvious difference between the different manufacturers. Can anyone fill me in with what the differences would likely be.

Stick with your 980 and wait for the new generation Polaris/Pascal. Your gains will mostly be minimal

yes, 980 will tide you over till polaris hit, and depending on if Pascal has improved features for VR, you can pick it or Polaris.

Hello all,

I'm looking to rebuild my mATX pc and am looking at either the Fury X or the Nano, however I'm a little put off the X by the talk of pump noise.

Can anyone who has brought the X recently advise me on if the newer units suffer? (saw AMD state that newer cards should be fixes but am yet to find any solid confirmation on this)

Thanks in advance

How many of those with fury x's still have the card?

Still happy with them?

Probably less than 5 people on these forums

Still got mine. Still makes the coil whine, but performance wise I'm still good with it

FredFlint · 21 Mar 2016 at 02:36

Still got mine.

I recently bought a FuryX off of the MM for £325, pretty pleased with it's performance so far.

Yes, it runs Fifa 16 easily at very low temperatures in silence, so it does the job for me.

Are you still looking for one?

The_One · 21 Mar 2016 at 19:59

Yeah still after one

Pick one up from the MM? I got mine from AMDmatt so could be pretty sure it woudn't be a dud.

I was going to go Xfire with another 390 but with all the sli/xfire issues decided to go down the single card route instead. Pleased with it? Yep. No noise/whine. Well, the fan gets a bit noisy if I ramp it up but to be honest it never gets the chance unless I override the profile as the temps stay so low. They really overengineered this one.
