Fury has reigned upon us and as such we review the new Radeon R9 Fury X from AMD. We will benchmark, test and analyze the card in-depth. There's a lot to tell about this 4096 shader processor based beast with that all new HBM memory. With a GPU that counts upwards close to 9 Billion transistors AMD literally has made the biggest chip ever available. But will it perform ? Let's find out shall we ?

Underwhelmed. Thoroughly.

It's a good card at the right price, but I was really hoping AMD would steal away the performance crown. AS it is, this isn't a whole lot better than a 290X. That's sad.

Nice review HH.

Who will play at 4k when the fps is still so low ? I certainly would not.
I hope for amd's sake voltage will be unlocked soon so we can have some real OC results instead of with the stock voltage ones. And that it will beat 980ti.
ATM im certainly not impressed , i had hoped for higher numbers tbh.
I guess its a nice stepup from the 290x though if you are just into AMD.

Well...

....that was underwhelming

....to all those who were on the hype train, thinking it would derail a 980 Ti...Titan X and were already celebrating, THIS is why you should wait.

I'll admit to feeling a bit smug.

Yeah, idk. Maxwell launched what, 8 months ago? AMD has watercooling + HBM + 8 months of architecture design and this is it? I expected it to at least best the Titan X by 10-15% @ 4K in most benchmarks. It's not a bad card for the price, but just doesn't live up to the hype.
