Radeon Fury X Outperforms GeForce GTX Titan X @ $650 - TechPowerUp

 

 

 

AMD's new flagship $649 R9 Fury X GPU outperforms Nvidia's flagship GeForce GTX Titan X a $999 card in leaked 3DMark 11 benchmarks Korean tech publication ITCM.co.kr.

 

The R9 Fury (non-X) at $550 is performing very close to the $650 GeForce GTX 980 Ti.

 

The benches see the R9 Fury X score higher than the GTX Titan X in all three tests, while the R9 Fury is almost as fast as the GTX 980 Ti.

 

The cards maintain their winning streak over NVIDIA even with memory-intensive tests such as 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra (4K), but buckle with 5K. These two cards, which are bound for the market within the next 30 days were tested alongside the R9 390X, which is not too far behind the GTX 980. Scheduled release June 24.

If this is true this is awesome

[Mohenjo]

4gb vram mixed with that amount of power is just odd but whatever

[SurvivorNVL]

Yes.  Excellent.  Good.  Now--this just tells me to get -one- Fury X for now, and then a Fury X2 in Fall.  Tri-fire.

On a serious note, this was already posted, and we shouldn't rely on synthetic benches anyway.

These benches were already posted somewhere around here

And you all thought AMD was dying out? They are sort of like a Toyota truck. Bombproof.

repost...............many times

Damn AMD, your Fury will smite down the nVidian Titans!

 

But what about the vram? 4GB?

It should be fine. I recall seeing someone say that 4 GB of HBM is equal to 6 GB of GDDR5, and I'm not sure if that factors in the compression algorithm.

Competition like this is good for us consumers.  I hope nvidia responds with price drops... or I'm switching over to Team Red for my next build.

[Humbug]

Why why when people get a great opportunity such as this do they not test real games?

And how did they get drivers for Fiji?

[reapersivan]

AMD Radeon R9 Poseidon, if only it ran real cool. That would be a great name or Zeus

[Hunter7263]

I have a question. How reliable should we even consider this. There is no mention if they overclocked or by how much. Since we know the Fury and the Fury X are the exact same card one just has water cooling instead of air cooling where should there be such a huge gap in performance (more than 10% in most cases) Also who could have benchmarked this already? I would have to say that at least someone on youtube should have already gotten this to benchmark. Think about it who better to benchmark a watercooled card than Jayztwocents? This would be a video released as soon as the NDA was lifted so I would have to guess these are just guess photoshopped at best.

and itll run cooler with the AIO then a fucking titan

Oops sorry about that, I was reading on Techpowerup and didn't see that wccf had a similar article although wccf only had the 3D mark 11-Sky Diver benchmark while Techpowerup has the continued benchmarks with 3D mark Firestrike.

Yeah, I saw that. But I recall a different topic that had all these benchmarks a couple days ago, but I can't find it now. So, maybe it's fine.

Synthetics...

 

In-game benchmarks are what most of us care about. This is also a repost.

Good job AMD. Any details on amount of VRAM though?

[Aniallation]

4gb vram mixed with that amount of power is just odd but whatever

Overclocked 980s can hit this amount of power with 4GB of VRAM and nobody's really complaining

Fury cards will have 4GB. AMD has made it official on their product page when I looked yesterday.

Ah!

 

How can 4GB of vram be enough? A previous user said something about HBM or something instead of GDDR5, what does that mean?

[Hunter7263]

4gb vram mixed with that amount of power is just odd but whatever

4gb of GDDR5 VRAM mixed with that power is odd. We have no idea how HBM performs yet. We can only theoretically extrapolate which is what these guys did to get those numbers.

Hm. AMD putting a lot of faith in their compression I suppose.
