If you look to see what driver this is running you will see it is Catacyst driver 15.5 which is not optimised for Fury X, we need to wait for the driver to compare the Titan X to the Fury X Graphics card

Thank you for questioning validity of screenshots like this. Especially if it is accompanied by anything with "V" logo. It would be almost magical to hit spot between 980Ti and TX. And same goes for CF vs SLI.

real or not , i do think it either beats titan x or 980ti or would be in between them... price is everything. For some reason, i think nvidia gonna launch performance driver when Fiji is out.

The score is real. The reason you get generic VGA, is because FM hasn't added it to the database yet. The score however is real as it's within margin of error, different from other results (less than 1%) 15.15 driver that is online doesn't support Fury, but boxed driver does 🙂 For comparison 3rd party 980Ti OC edition - 8625 http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/7288985

AMD needs all the success they can get, 970 gave them the worst time ever. pretty much nvidia vs nvidia ever since September 2014. I hope fiji XT pro whatever gonna be interesting.

Yep

IF it uses liquid cooling + nuclear power supply to get these results with 4 GB memory which is too little for 4K anyway, does it really matter how fast it is? And yes, 980 TI is also using the initial driver with probably more optimizations to come very soon. Interesting to see real reviews though. I'm not really interested in AMD "quality" anymore personally, but I hope there are enough other people bying these to bring Nvidia prices down a bit.

Something needs to be done to fix this crazy 75% nv to 25% amd marketshare, like... now. The 970 didn't give AMD a hard time because it was fast, it gave them a hard time because it was fast and priced well. $400-$600 GPU's aint gonna save AMD one bit.

this, pretty much. fiji is a niche product just like the 980ti / x -- the most it can do for AMD is drive the hype for sells for cheaper cards that have essentially nothing to do with HBM and are just refinements over existing designs.

yes that what i said, price performance and power consumption ,970 was and still the king. 16 June might see new winners and new losers, nonetheless it will be interesting.

Not really, as soon as the 970 came out, the 290/290x got a hefty price drop, 970 was around £270 at launch, 290 dropped to around £200 as soon as the 970 released, value for money was really good on AMD side of things. Still is, you can pick up a Asus DCUII for £209, similar 970 would cost about £260. So it wasn't the pricing that made the 970 so popular, AMD remained competitive in the sub £300 market.

970 whole package made it superior to 290x there was no reason for 290x then and not now. Maybe new cards change it

It is amusing to see all these kind of messages. I'm no fanboy (had many NV and AMD cards), I just bought a 290x ASUS MATRIX ROG for 320€ (shipping included), the other option I considered was a 970 for 340€. Ok it is hotter but no gamer cares about temps as long as it is stable, and believe me it is super stable. I'm very happy with my purchase. So AMD already has an anti-970 can't understand why everyone is so biased against AMD.

What the resolution? If this is 1080p, who cares. I want to see 4k numbers.

I'm glad your happy with your purchase, I think the 290x is a good card, especially at higher resolutions. That being said, the 970 outperforms the 290x in nearly every new title @ FHD/QHD. It does it at nearly half the power 290w vs. 145w, and as you said that lower power leads to lower temps. Plus then you get all the Nvidia marquee features, which are just more checkboxes to add to the 970. I mean yeah the 290x already competes with the 970, but it isn't very good at it.
