that's your personal , unprofessional, uneducated (on the matter) view. AMD certainly went to great lengths to reduce power.

oh man, you can go way further back and see $500+ prices on the high end. Anyone even remember the geforce 2 days? Hell even my sexxxy gf256 was well over $300 lol (I miss those days/abs)
Now you want amd to go out of business selling the fury for 400? Video cards have been over 500 bucks for a lot of years for the highest end segment. Look up the 8800ultra release price.

Anyone notice that Titan X/980Ti/Fury X/Fury take about same area on wafer? Cca 600mm^2, compared to gtx 680/HD7970's 300/350mm^2.
That is your correlation. It costs more to make such chip, so you have to pay more.
Only wrong thing with pricing is gtx 980 which with 400m^2 did cost too much, but it was priced based on performance because otherwise nVidia would kill sales of many of their cards.

Even with HBM, AMD still has similar temps and slightly higher power draw then Maxwell...
Imagine a Maxwell card with HBM.....*drools*

Which is nothing, 50watts more is really nothing at all and is very acceptable.
