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.

Funny how Hilbert warns us all about the "reality distortion" of AMD's internal benchmark slides, while he was all over Nvidia's OC-driver slides:

In contrast with today:

Funny how Hilbert warns us all about the "reality distortion" of AMD's internal benchmark slides, while he was all over Nvidia's OC-driver slides:
The performance gap is pretty significant seeing that this is just a Soft update of the same card. Now the Thief benchmark have a skewed axis starting from 48 fps till 60 fps, so the performance increase is lower (percent wise) than star swarm. However we can see that the GTX 780 Ti overtakes the Mantle Equipped R9 290X once again in terms of performance, with this mysterious new update. This second slide shows some impressive improvements of API features that once again come in this new upcoming driver update.
This is undeniably one of the most impressive charts i have ever seen. The Benchmark pits Mantle Equipped R9 290X against all three drivers. The new driver is very impressive, increasing performance by orders all around. We see an increase of an order of magnitude in DirectDraw.
If these benchmarks are true, and it looks like they are, ...

Cherry picked could mean the games where AMD has the upper hand... Well honestly and personally these are teh games that really matter right now, the ones I would really like to see which one is leading. So thanks!

He also started that link you gave with: If we can believe the slides of course.
Someone's colors are showing and it's not Hilberts

These cherry picked games are also running an a bizarre range of settings, I mean who would buy a high end GPU to run a 4k display with in game settings set to MEDIUM with no AF? Why not just simply put all games to maximum and set the 4k resolution with AFx16 and either AA on or off (throughout all tests) and see which is the better performer. Heck even the numbers from AC Unity are poor on both cards with those settings so why not just see what they can do flatout since we all now we can run 4k games if you adjust the settings.

They chose settings anywhere between Medium and Ultra.
8 custom game settings used
AA going from 0 to 4xSSAA
And Anisotropic Filtering going from 0 to 16, but mostly ZERO.
In 2015. AF=0 !!
Wow, their in-house settings are a joke. Can't wait to compare these results with proper ones from reputable sites
