The Fury(X) Fiji Owners Thread

Bonjour said:
Matt, if you didn't get any sort of contribution towards your Fury setup, then you should have done.

It's about as good as anything AMD's PR department have come up with and most probably convinced a few people to take the plunge on a Fury (or 2).

Thanks Bonjour very kind of you, but I'm just doing my thing. It's not part of my job requirement. :)

He will have an AMD credit card.;)
 
What does worry me about the Fury X though is the fan on the rad. I've got 1850rpm GTs and they are definitely not quiet at that speed. I seem to recall having to take them down to around 1000-1200rpm to be bearable.
Hopefully the fact that these are (I believe) the 3000+rpm variety undervolted (or something) to run at 1850rpm will somehow make them quieter. Can't really see it though (which is why I'm worried).

Feels odd talking about a reference AMD cooler and talking about it being quiet rather than just "not waking the neighbours" loud...

Cap the frame rate or try using individual 8 pin connector cables if you are using 2 way splitters.

Failing that keep buying PSU's till one gets you a better result, or keep buying Fury X cards till one gets you a better result.

lol.

Are you sure it's coil whine?

Do a few benchmarks break that sucker in and see if it lessens.

Also could try playing with the fan speed in MSI Afterburner and see if the noise you are hearing lessens etc.

My card is really quiet, I think my first run it made some noises, but water gets moved if their are any bubbles they need to be moved around. On boot there is no fan limitation so can spin up fast, in Windows environment it should be silent.

I would def try and break the card in a bit, Futuremark benchmarks, unigine etc see if it settles down.

I think it's the 1850RPM version GM. :)
 
Definitely are good fans. Ocuk sent me a few as alternatives to ones I ordered but were out of stock. Slightly slower than the sharkoon models I ordered but shifted more air and with less noise.
