But these AMD-supplied benchmarks-which were obviously chosen to place the Radeon in the best possible light-show the two cards performing fairly neck-and-neck in most games. So now for the elephant in the room: How does the Fury X compare against Nvidia’s similarly priced GeForce GTX 980 Ti? It’s impossible to tell until we’ve put the Radeon through its review paces, given that AMD’s stream processors and Nvidia’s CUDA core technology aren’t directly comparable, and HBM adds an unknown factor.

You can see the full tech specs for the Fury X’s HBM and Fiji processor in the chart at right.Īll that power needs a pair of 8-pin connectors and 275 watts from the wall under heavy gaming scenarios, which is similar to the 980 Ti’s needs. ( Nvidia’s Titan X packs 8 billion.) Clocked at up to 1,050MHz, it’s able to pump out up to 8.6 teraflops of compute performance. Fiji rocks 4,096 stream processors and 8.9 billion transistors, compared to the older R9 290X’s 2,816 stream processors and 6.3 billion transistors. HBM’s drastically reduced footprint also lets AMD pack a ton of tech into its new Fiji GPU-literally.
