Better air-cooled GPU? Nano or Fury?

[BurstSMG]

Please don't say "Get a 980 TI". I want either the Fury or the Nano, I just want to know which one performs better

The Nano is a full Fiji XT GPU, and the Fury is a cut-down version of the Fiji XT GPU. The Nano is faster.

[Electronics Wizardy]

The fury is faster and cheaper

Look at the benchmarks here

My question already was answered, but thanks anyways

Just my two cents.

The R9 Fury is faster than the R9 nano...because the R9 nano constantly trottle to 800mhz...so even though it has more stream processor, it's a slower card overall:

People speak of this throttling but I have never had below 933MHz on mine. A lot of throttling is due too heat but my Nano never has that problem. On a side note I went Nano as it was 70 pound cheaper compared to the fury.

not saying the price difference is worth it obviously if you get a deal on nano and it's decently cheaper why not...but the fury is faster than the nano:

Personally I would pick the Fury because the Nano can run into thermal issues which make it slower than a Fury.

Still going with Nano. Compact size, I love it.

fair enough if you need a small card then yeah

[thekeemo]

Fury.

Same performance lower price. Quieter too.

(im talking non x here)

I don't need a small GPU, but I just like them more as they don't sag as much

Nano is smaller and only 3 FPS lower usually. I'll go with that

Sag isnt really an issue

[danrey84]

Can I just ask a question too people on this thread. As in what regions do you live in as where I am ( UK ) the Nano is cheap by some distance.

Yeah, but I like playing it safe. Also, the Nano fits in literally ANY case. A GPU like the Tri-X might block drive bays!

here in canada they cost the same...and the Fury is faster, cooler and quieter:
