im leaning toward 980ti. give me the pros and cons of each
980 ti, its just been plainly faster then the Fury X. Once you take advantage of the huge overclocking head room of the 980 ti, it just stretches its lead out over the Fury X. The Fury X doesn't keep up at stock, and then it doesn't have as much overclocking headroom so it falls behind post-overclock. The Fury X is still a great card, but the 980 ti is the winner of the duel.
i agree the Fury X is a bit of a let down. i thought that AMD was finnaly going to have a titan X killer. i heard that its a great compute card though. i heard its better than a Titan Z at direct comput. since it has a the most physical power of any card. but unfortunately it cant summon that power in gaming.

i mean i guess the R9 295x2 is a Titan X killer. but its a dual GPU card. but now adays you can get one for 650 bucks if your lucky
Yeah but the vram is still the biggest limmitation of the 295X2.
2x390 in crossfire should give you similar performance, but with an 8GB vram buffer.
But im personaly not a big fan of dual gpu setups.

ive heard that 2 way crossfire causes lots of stutter, but adding a third card gets rid of the stutter
Thats weird, and does not sound very logical to me.
i know. but ive never tried it so i dont know. i read it on a PC Gamers page a while back.
i did have heard that Nvidia seem to suffer from allot of stuttering wenn go triple or Quad sli.
I guess Linus tried it, not sure.
Need to look it up someday.
But still triple or quad gpu setups, dont make much sense to me.
The stutter isn't very bad as far as I know since they worked on their new frame pacing mechanism back in the 13.8 driver. Either card is excellent, right now the 980Ti comes out ahead but at the same time the drivers for AMD might mature quite a bit in the next version of Catalyst.
I imagine that they were waiting on Win10 to really focus their efforts into driver development due to limited funding, and the pressure on the community to move to the new OS for "free".
Personally I think you'd be better off picking up the Sapphire Fury than the Fury X ... But that's just me. Either way I dont think you'll find yourself upset with the purchase whether you go with a Fury or the 980Ti, they're honestly both beastly cards.
i just to be able to max "EVERY" game at 1080p. to me Graphics>Resolution
EVERY game meaning it has to be able to max GTA V with everything cranked up
Both the Fury and the 980Ti are slaughter for 1080p gaming. They're more targeted towards 4k. Frame rates depend on a lot more than just how expensive or powerful your GPU is.
my gifted 1.3 GHZ 780ti just cant.
i know but im going to use atleast 4X MSAA with the 980ti
I think for 1080P you're spending too much $$ on GPU look at benchmarks eveywhere the 970 is king of 1080p with the R9 390 up there too.
The cards you're talking about are to max 1440P.......
You'd be better off using VSR and turning AA off. Basically same effect, and far less performance hit.
well im also getting ready for VR also. to which ill get a second 980ti for VR.
oh yeah thats good too
I think before you spend upwards of $600 on a GPU you need to slow down and do some homework.
