Overview
Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB is an Enthusiast Graphics Card based on the Third Revision of the Graphics Core Next (GCN) Architecture.
Architecture
The Fiji is a Second Generation GCN GPU. It offers support for HBM-1 Memory, DirectX 12.0, Open GL 4.5 and the acclaimed Delta Compression Algorithm which may decrease bandwidth consumption by up to 30%, in most games.
Fiji XT is the Full Variant of the GPU with 64 Compute Units activated, offering 4096 Shader Processing Units, 256 TMUs and 64 ROPs.
GPU
The Central Unit is clocked at 1000MHz.
Memory: Speed
The GPU is equipped with stacked HBM-1 Memory and accesses the Frame Buffer through a 4096-bit memory interface.
Memory: Frame Buffer
The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 4GB. Under most circumstances, this only proves useful in certain 3D Games whose Settings Require Large Amounts of Memory.
However, and because the GPU itself is aimed for 4K Gaming, 4GB might be a bottlenecked and Performance could be better, were the Frame Buffer larger.
Power Consumption
With a rated board TDP of 275W, it requires at least a 600W PSU with two available 8-pin connectors.
Performance
Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB competes with GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB and both are available for $649.
Benchmarks However Indicate that GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB is still faster than Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB, even at 4K, whereas as the resolution goes down, the performance gap between the latter and GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB increases and at 1600x900, Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB is only as fast as the weaker GeForce GTX 980.
Considering Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB offers practically no overclock potential (operating memory clock can't even be increased), consumes slightly more energy than GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB, costs the same price and performs worse, Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB ends up being one of AMD's worst releases of the last years and given the hype built, probably the most disappointing.
System Suggestions
Radeon R9 FURY X 4GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 2560x1600. We recommend a Very Strong Processor and 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance.

Damn. AMD did it again. Making completely better hardware. HBM-1 is great! I bet Nvidia will start using it, or will they stick with GDDR5X?
Was able to get mine for $320 on ebay. With the driver updates and memory/voltage unlocks it is very powerful. Able to OC core to 1200mhz from 1050mhz and memory to 600mhz from 500mhz. I had previously upgraded to a 1070 but sold it for $, benchmarks the 1070 was way better, but my primary game is WoW and there was virtually no difference(5-10fps) in most areas.
They should update the information. Operating memory clock can be increased and there is greater control of the voltage too. Drivers have all but cleared up some of the major flaws of the card too. It is still not at the level of a 980 ti unless at 4k(stock speed)but considering its cheaper now than the Ti as of writing this and its improved, it is worth noting, and even more so competitive.
3% Better :)
with some tweaks this gpu can beat titan x
Wrong, remember that Titan X can be tweaked as well. As far as I know Titan X can by OC'd way futher then Fury X.
Except the Titian X is forced to use a stock blower cooler and OEM board. Meaning even if the chip CAN go higher, it doesn't matter cause it will thermal throttle like hell. Its why most 980 ti's BEAT the titian X.
Also the FuryX is better at 4k because of its HBM.
No, Titan X are not forced to use stock cooler, lol, ever heard of waterblock? AlsoTitan X are sold as Hybrid, and the dimension are similar to 980 ti, so you can easily replace the Titan X cooler with a 3th party 980 ti cooler. So wrong saying that Titan X are forced to use stock cooler, tha's baised and pure AMD-fanboyism right there.
So technically you can easily push Titan X higher (without throttling) when using watercooler, hynrid or another 3th party cooler. 980 ti beating Titan X are only with stock cooler, there are several benchmarks were Titan X do it just as good or better when having the right cooling option. And HBM does not make Fury X better on 4k. Show me a benchmark if you're right, but I guess you won't, as most benchmarks I've seen shows that 980ti/Titan X does better at 4k.
That's like saying a Honda Civic is better then a Mustang because you "can" put in better parts. By default though, there is no single TitianX you can just buy that will outperform any decent aftermarket 980ti.
Cars have nothing to do with it, just shows your lack of knowledge. Ever heard of EVGA Titan X Hybrid, Hydro Copper, and ZOTAC Titan X Arctic Storm? All are Titan X models sold with aftermarket coolers that can compete with and even beat some of the aftermarket 980 ti's. Please educate yourself before down voting and backtalking me, you clearly don't have a clue. Search up the models I just mentioned, I mean also Gigabyte has sold an aftermarket Titan X if I'm not mistaken.
Ladies and Gentlemen! I give you.. The fight of the century!
AMD Fanboii vs Nvidia Fanboyo!
The fight was tough at the beginning. But the Nvidia Boyo was able to successfully deliver the final blow!
Haha. It says my GPU is 8% more powerful… Good ol' Game Debate.
(I wish)
What in the world!!!!!!! how! wait what? you and i have the same GTX 970 then how is your card 20% better than mine ?
But it shows ZERO difference when i click on your GPU link. the hell ?
Mine's overclocked man. But I still have no idea how GD says that it's better than a Fury X…
I'm planning an upgrade next week to this GPU. I hope my CPU will do the job, it should.
Planning to use it on a 1440p@60hz screen.
Should've gone with the Fury X!
Should I upgrade to the fury x or wait for the fury x2 to release?
(I plan on upgrading to a 4k monitor later as well)
wait for the 14nm/16nm GPUs.
This is 81% better than my GPU. :)
Wow, this GPU is like twice as fast then nvidia 980. Just take a look at those specs, it destroys even Titan X.
I dunno why GD say nvidia are better than this :P
Every comment you make, makes me face-palm sooooo hard.
I may not have a true fury x, but I can unlock at least half of the CUs on my Fury Tri X
