AMD Radeon R9 Fury X - Official Benchmarks
Okay before we dive into this one, I have to state the following. The benchmarks that got posted yesterday, and are shown in the chart below, originate from the AMD reviewers guide. Someone posted them on-line, and he shouldn't have as benchmarks results are to be released next week.
Secondly, and I want to make a strong note about this, these benchmarks are made by AMD themselves, it's at 4K only and paints a very narrow picture. Please understand that when a company shows performance results in a guide or document, only the positive numbers are included. I mean its a marketing strategy to make 'the other guys' look bad. Yes, cherry picked results.
So I don't even know who leaked these (techreport I think) ? The embargo is a bit of a mess, any courtesy goes out to whoever that is.
So please do take these things with a grain of salt and just wait for the real-world numbers from media outlets like Guru3D.com before you draw any conclusions okay ? The Radeon R9 Fury X packs 4096 GCN cores and 8.9 billion transistors.

I was waiting for something much more impressive since AMD claimed Fury X to be the "fastest GPU in the world". If these are true and AMDs own benchmarks it will probably not beat the TI, especially those models having 30 % factory overclock. But I will wait for the real benchmarks before judging.
Btw, notice how games that take more than 4Gb memory in 4K are missing, including GTA V

Shadow of Mordor is in there. Isnt that one of the most VRAM intensive games out there?

I am pretty sure there are games where 980Ti does better. But looking at Bioshock Infinite where AMD's equivalent HW usually scores like 20% worse, and seeing it here at same level...
And being better in Witcher 3 which is crippled on anything but maxwell...
And it is true that 4k is nice, but this card alone is best for 1440p or higher refresh rate 1080p/21:9 screens.
So lets calmly wait for Hilbert's test suite which is unbiased.

The Titan also costs $400 more. I'd sure hope it outperforms something for that price...
