Just comparing apples to apples. You wouldn't know anything about that. Oh for the love of God I hope you are playing dumb and aren't really this dense.
The Fury X is nice but it would not fit into my case with my Noctua NH-D15 cooler. However, since I have an R9 290 Reference and I just bought a Samsung 28 inch 4k monitor, my system plays great anyways without an upgrade. (4K does give me an excuse to upgrade in the next couple of years though. ) Seems like dual Nano's would work great if the power predictions are accurate and they are faster than the R9 290x as predicted. We will see but, I do not purchase a lot of new games anyways and I have only gamed the last few days because I have taken a week off from running. If I had a 7970 or older card, upgrading would make sense for me. Right now, not as much.
Hardware.fr measured Fury X = 105c vrm area (with backplate off). http://www.hardware.fr/articles/937-8/temperatures-nuisances-sonores.html click: "Charge sans plaque arrière" (back plate off at load)
Don't call one random Mars guy the majority That is like saying all nvidia fanboys are immature cause one is acting like an asshatter.
You do now. It's the reason I have the card I do now. I trouble shot with nvidia themselves and they said it was their limited ram issue. So I returned it to the retailer and got the 295x2. No stuttering ram issues now unless I actually do run out of ram. The 970's ran great for me except for 2 games where the ram issue was very apparent. I just couldn't do it anymore it was annoying. Plus with spending more on the 970's than I did on my 295 I actually got a money refund too as well as better performance. I've always had Nvidia cards since they came out with SLI with the 6600gt.
What were those 2 games you had issues with? I have played pretty much every game under the sun since I got my 970 but I'm yet to encounter any issues.
And you know what is funnier. It's these Nv's users flooded the AMD's reviews being a free of charge consultants/critics/bashers/a$$haters and yet since the age of radeon hd series, AMD is still the 2nd place or the last place or the worse or whatever you call it.
The AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Review: Aiming For the Top: http://www.anandtech.com/show/9390/the-amd-radeon-r9-fury-x-review Good stuff of the memory usage.
Yeah that"s a bit different having SLI. You actually have the power to use 4GB of VRAM but only have 3.5GB truly usable. How long ago did you exchange for the 295? Just wondering if the newer drivers have alleviated some of the issue. BTW IIRC ACU was teribad on everything.
