AMD Reveals Radeon R9 Fury X Specs and Preliminary Benchmark Performance Results

[wraggster]

AMD announced new Radeon R9 and R7 300 series of graphics cards earlier this week (http://tech.slashdot.org/story/15/06/16/2234221/amd-announces-fiji-based-radeon-r9-fury-x-project-quantum-radeon-300-series), and while they are interesting, they're not nearly as impressive as AMD's upcoming flagship of AMD GPU, code named Fiji. Fiji will find its way into three products this summer: the Radeon R9 Nano, Radeon R9 Fury, and the range-topping (and water-cooled) Radeon R9 Fury X. Other upcoming variants like, AMD's dual-Fiji board (http://hothardware.com/news/amd-shows-off-dual-fiji-gpu-powered-graphics-card), were teased at E3 but are still under wraps. However, while full reviews are still under embargo, the official specification of the Radeon R9 Fury X have been revealed, along with (http://hothardware.com/news/official-amd-radeon-r9-fury-x-specifications-and-benchmark-scores-revealed) an array of benchmark scores comparing the GPU to NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 980 Ti. Should the numbers AMD has released jibe with independent testing, the Radeon R9 Fury X looks strong and possibly faster than Nvidia's GeForce GTX 980 Ti.
