Radeon R9 Fury X Faster Than GeForce GTX 980 Ti at 4K: AMD
AMD, in its press documents, claimed that its upcoming flagship single-GPU graphics card, the Radeon R9 Fury X, will be faster than NVIDIA's recently launched GeForce GTX 980 Ti, at 4K Ultra HD resolution. This puts to rest speculation that its 4 GB of video memory hampers performance against its competitor with 6 GB of memory. From the graph below, which was extracted from AMD's press material, the R9 Fury X will be faster than the GTX 980 Ti, in even the most memory-intensive games at 4K, including Far Cry 4, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Crysis 3, Assassins Creed: Unity, and Battlefield 4. Bigger gains are shown in other games. In every single game tested, the R9 Fury X is offering frame-rates of at least 35 fps. The Radeon R9 Fury X will launch at $649.99 (the same price as the GTX 980 Ti), next week, with market availability within the following 3 weeks.

wait until Pascal drops. Have your tissues ready.
Use a frame limiter. It's even built-in in a lot if newer games that I have.
This Hexus review shows the Zotac Amp Overclock (not the Amp Extreme version mind)
Given the AMD slide puts the 980TI at about 33fps (it's not far off Hexus 31-36) it shows a decent lead at 40-44 fps for an overclocked 980ti (>20% faster than stock). Exciting times ahead - I hope the Fury X is as capable at overclocking as Maxwell. Makes my purchasing decisions harder though. :laugh:
But then Fury can do the exact same thing. Battle of the hardcore Pr0n.
got the scientist here showing you should have your settings high enough to be in the 45-60fps range. i dont where that slide come from buts its not something they really like to say about how it works but as mentioned alot of games sync frames and have pretty good dynamic framerate. they are releasing a driver bases dynamic frame control soon enough.
i think the difference in fps we see from amd may be the experience with catalyst..
why not settings like this if a game is running easy max over your refresh rate
or why not settings like this in a more balanced scenario
what if a apu needs a little boost in performance
From the AMD press deck. Fury X overclocked by 100MHz (9.5% overclock)
Seems in line with other current GPUs, but the 9.5% overclock margin isn't that impressive.
ADD.
And overclocking memory... for more bandwidth... on HBM? Naah... i would locked it too.
so currently gsync does show some advantage at this point so nvidia does pull ahead at this point with adaptive sync but for how for long?
Still, awaiting Wednesday.
@W1zzard - when you bench (when you publish what you have benched - can you do an apples to apples, balls to the wall overclock on an intensive game, Fury X versus 980ti - both at max OC? Neutral, non Gameworks and ultra everything so VRam is high. This would be good to see.
for me the Titan X is not a gaming card. funny one ... Fiji is Maxwell contender ... not the 2yrs one that still hold it who populate the 3XX line ...
the next gen after Fiji is Pascal contender.
I want to see overclocking performance of the card. That is what will matter in the end and if there are any aftermarket variants for better overclocking (Lightning)
