Looks like no magic sauce for the Fury in W10. Glad that myth has been busted. Now to see if the DX12 will be magic for AMD only myth gets debunked soon.

It may just be certain games, like BF4. That's why I was asking. Here's the response from ManuelG on geforce forums. Sounds like there's an acknowledgement of some sort of issue, just don't know how extensive.

Thanks for the link. I have not experienced anything like that myself.
In fact, in Win 10, my vram ususage is 100mb less and 250mb avg less on system ram.

Do you happen to play BF4? Good to know it isn't affecting everyone. Still makes me nervous to update my machine with 2x780s until I see more data points

On that particular x8/16 system spec as you have there is no significant gain.
But on My system there is ;-)
I've got +7-14FPS is every game i'm playing in Win_X
In pCars i'll have solid 55-65FPS experience in Utra/High Shadows Med and Smoke Low in 1792:1344 85Hz -> in comparison on Win 8.1 MCe i was playing without Smoke and shadows on Low to get similar FPS.
So gain is Great on AMD CPU's i think

Haha wow, where are all those "Wait for Windows 10 and you'll see the AMD difference" cats at now?
But hey, keep believing in the magical driver/OS fairy.
