I'm a noob when it comes to graphic card history  . But I find it strange AMD does not care about the mid tier gamer who only budget is around 300-500 usd

Fury x to be fair is for high end level  , not really surprise about overseas price and local is another story. Rebrand for mid tier and charging the same price is almost shallow like what their competitor did .  Cant they learn from NVIDIA 970 best bang for buck until 3.5gb fiasco

In other words those with decent brain left just get crossfire 290x instead ? Oh crap freesync doesnt work on crossfire LEL

*throw my 290x*

Don't rush to conclusion first. How can you possibly make the card so freakin small without sacrificing performance. I believe they will lower a lot of clockspeed to get that 175W TDP.

why u say amd don't care ?  AMD R9 380/390x price 200usd to 400usd  and this cards 4GB is 4GB.. 

AMD Fury/Fury X design compete with 980 Ti /Titan X

Actually is 8GB for the nineties.

But performance wise, I still curious if 380 can challenge GTX970.

Can anyone answer me with simple layman terms ,will 4gb HBM will be enough for 4k gaming or game that uses a lot of vram like gta v without stuttering/performance hit ?

You are too forgiving and accepting. It's NATURAL to question all the hyperbole and marketing claims on these slides. Of course two is better than one. The point of he matter is that it took them TWO Fijis to claim that, instead of one. What's stopping them from putting on that same slide that claim of "world's fastest single GPU" right next to the Fury X, instead of putting that "world's fastest graphics card" on the dual Fiji instead? 

CFX implementation on anything AMD is still poor so even if it does claim the world's fastest graphics card, having to deal with CFX peculiarities like micro stuttering and missing CFX profiles alone does not ensure "the best 4K experience" as what they claimed. It's like having the fastest Ferrari car around but giving it to drive to an 18 year old who just pass his driving license test. Single GPU card is still the metric to look for to avoid CFX complications.

You can be defensive about folks questioning AMD all you want, but it doesn't help their cause when they're not being true to their own claims. Or in this case, side skirting around vague claims and statements.

Personally to me, THIS was the only good thing that came out of the presentation yesterday:



It shows forward thinking and innovation on behalf of AMD to think outside the box on what their HBM implementation has done to shrink the PC form factor into a form which was not possible before. Almost like a PC version of that dustbin-looking Mac Pro.

i think it is robbery practice for selling RM4899 Fury X.
it should have official price set by eat vendors.
however most shop do not follow it.

idealtech list R9 390 nitro 8GB the same as well @ RM1569

so don't blame the shops, the price is from sapphire distributor

fury x at RM4.9K..just crazy
