Radeon R9 Fury specs Appear Online
And with Radeon R9 Fury we obviously mean the non X model, that will be air-cooled. Apparently this card will be cut down a bit towards 3584 Stream Processors by enabling only 56 of the 64 compute units on the GPU.
Website TweakTown is reporting this info at the moment, albeit the source is not indicated:
According to our industry insiders, the Radeon R9 Fury will feature 3584 Stream Processors, down from the 4096 on the full Fury X. The Fiji-based GPU will be clocked at 1050MHz, which is identical to that of the Fury X. We have 4GB of High Bandwidth Memory that provides the same 512GB/sec of bandwidth, clocked at 500MHz (1GHz effective). We are being told to expect temperatures of the Fiji PRO-based R9 Fury to be less than 75C, which is considerably higher than the 50C or so from the watercooled Fury X.
The biggest difference between the Fury and Fury X is that the Fury is air-cooled, with AIB partners able to put on their respective coolers onto the card. The other big difference is that the Fiji PRO GPU is what is powering the Fury, with 512 less Stream Processors. We shouldn't expect performance to be that much less, probably 10-15% less than Fury X. But, without that huge radiator and pump, we're going to have an impressive card to combat the GeForce GTX 980 and GTX 980 Ti.

Makes sense to me, basically saying for the price, it's great as it competes with the 980, but it won't touch the 980ti

Fury X is getting less than 10% more performance with OC but with a much higher pricetag. I can't see a cutdown Fiji chip outperform 980 tbh, not if you overclock both. Maxwell scales and overclocks too good. And the price seems to be higher than 980 anyway..
Fiji XT is rumored to have ROP bottleneck. If those rumors are remotely accurate and rop count remains at 64x in Fiji Pro, performance drop should be few percentages. This product can be bang for buck for higher segment of graphics cards. If AMD is preparing above average driver for w10 fiji pro is probably what im going to buy. Strangely enough I would hate to experience kepler gpus got shafted after maxwell was released.
Even though it is a rumor, less than optimal driver tweaks for reviews and gtx970 memory f.k up as a fact, makes me lean towards for amd gpus. I want to know what im buying beforehand and not after the sale is done

At least 4 GB MEANS 4 GB

It's competing against a real 4GB card. Beat a dead horse much.

Ehm what? This statement makes no sense, FuryX is barely enough to compete with the 980Ti. The fury will be a fantastic card since it should outperform the 980 with a great price but leave the 980Ti out of the equation...
