R9 Fury X Titan Killer ?

[76561198034396398]

http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/radeon-fury-x-beats-geforce-gtx-titan-x-and-fury-to-gtx-980-ti-3dmark-bench.html looks like AMD delivers a product to take on the GTX980TI and it may be 200$ cheaper is it worth the upgrade? running a GTX780TI but the CPU is an IvyBribge so it might bottleneck,also i don't game at 4k (i'm not paying 700$ for a monitor) and were the hell do you put the waterblock if you have a case running 8 fans already? the aircooled vers runs at 60 deg supposedly,while under load my 780 stays on 60 deg

Well they invented a new kind of memory that's stacked in 3D and has massive bandwidth

That is Micron's tech. Hynix, AMD, etc only uses it.

Memory doesn't even matter all that much anyway. Standard gddr5 is more than enough for any games currently available.

The gpu core is what really matters.

As far as I can understand without detailed specs, GPU is still old CGN. Not much difference from 7970. That is evolution, like GK110 after GK104, not revolutions as Maxwell vs Kepler vs Fermi.

HBM was invented by Hynix and AMD. Micron is/was working on HMC, which is similar, but didn't bring up results.

The results we've had so far disagree. It might not make a world of a difference, HBM would probably give better results on CPU cache than on VRAM, but it seems to already be a noticeable improvement.

seems that these companies are having problems going to smaller dies AMD just rereleased it's rebadge line (smaller die's is something i don't really understand seems only to relate to heat and in a desktop thats not really a problem ) if i'm reading these graphs correctly there's not much incentive to upgrade my aging GTX780TI...15% performance gain for a 1000$...nope

Believe me, Wiki isn't best source of knowledges.

Fury X comes with its own water cooling, which say a lot about the heat and power consumption.

The 970/980/ti/TX also have their hybrid variant
AMD recognized the demand for such product and they've made it somewhat more affordable.

Recognizing the demand is one thing. But what makes me wonder is if an air-cooled version of the Fury X is actually viable without having the fan running at full speed around the clock.

- Get the air-cooled version. It's $550. If you have a 8-fan case, you won't need water-cooled version anyway.
- 780 Ti doesn't support Dx 12
- You are getting at least 35% performance increase, I think. (Of course no benchmark, but it should come around Titan X level, and 35% is still not equal to Titan X)
- By the way, don't be held back by AMD using the GCN name. They made improvement, and just change the name to 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 for that matter. After all, GNC from AMD causes Nvidia to change the architecture 3 times to remain competitive.

So much for the Titan X killing:

10% weaker then GTX 980 Ti in reality.

Knew it yesterday
That's why I'm waiting for AMD to reduce price, and a new driver also.

Plus the Fury X only overclocks 5-8% While the 980 ti OC 12-15%

It will support DX12 when it comes out

What a disappointment. Feels like Nvidia is playing a game of stopping the car, waiting for the person to come up close and then speed away again, ad infintum.

I don't think so. That was obvious from the very beginning.

More on the matter but WARNING take it with a grain of salt ^.

Today got e-mail with real testing results (under NDA). I want to say, that should be boulder, not grain.

Upcoast, did you understand what I meant when said that your link isn't reliable?

taking pricing in Australia into consideration plus the heat this thing puts out and the performance i have to say the GTX980 TI looks like the winner,still out of my budget. besides i have to upgrade my CPU first c'mon Skylake
