Avast hates China? No idea. I have no problem with ESET and that image. :\

I was able to rehost it, so meh. Anyway, it's on-par with the 980. If it's the 380X, that's good. If it's the 390X, that's not so good.

Depends on if the Radeon sample was benched at near 'stock' clocks. Should also be comparing to other AMD cards to gauge where its gaming performance might be. The top scores listed at futuremark are heavily overclocked, obviously.

^^ Exactly, and it's kind of obvious too.

It is not on par with the 980s, it is on par with the top 25 best overclocked cards. And if it is stock clocks, which I think it is, or with slight OC, then it looks good.
It fairs against 1750/1850mhz GTX 780ti and GTX 980 doing 1640/2153mhz. lol

X8000 3d11 score is TitanZ score.


:eek:


That's good news to me. And if this is the 380X then the 390X will be even more beastly, maybe even surpassing Titan 2?
Honestly, if AMD goes out with a card like this as Nvidia pushes their Titan 2, I'm not sure many people would buy NV's offering.

Titan I was a success, to some extent, because there was nothing even close to it. That wouldn't be the case this time around. It could still end up faster, but not by a wide margin. And that's good news for consumers.

Nvidia will be first to market GM200 is ready to launch now 390X/380X is off until April/May. Even if the Titan II is slower than the 390X it will be out to market first. $1000 for 3-4 months then a price cut or new over clocked sku at $799.

Few know fore sure. Maybe this go around AMD will wait for Titan II and then crap on NVIDIA's parade with 390x....Time will tell.

I'm interested in going multi-gpu for the 1st time and also looking at monitors currently....Thinking I might have to kick myself in the arse for picking up a 970 last month.

I think you confused 3DMark11 X with some other benchmark. This is 44% faster than a 980, 59% faster than a 780Ti and 73% faster than a 290X. 380X with this score? You are about 2 years ahead with a 580 14nm with this score!

I am not trying to suggest that 3DMark11 scores represent modern game engines but this score rivals the Titan Z and is only 6% slower than a 295X2. What in the world are you expecting out of a 390X, 2X the speed of a 980?!

People fell into a comma on this forum when a 980 beat a 290X by 20% and 780Ti by 10%. If 390X and GM200 are 20%+ faster than a 980, it should be like the 2nd coming of Jesus :)

If this score is accurate, I'm going to be regretting my 980 purchase far more than I already do.

Yeah, I forgot to consider that the other scores are overclocked. My mistake!

There is also the good possibility after 4 months there could be another 15% increase due to driver optimizations.

I can't wait to see more.

Wow you are so special. Who's to say that an overclocked 390x couldn't also surpass X9000? We don't even know if this benchmark is legit, or whether or not the device was overclocked. However, we do know for a fact that a Titan Z scores ~x8200 at standard clocks.

You know that it scores that paired with an i7-3960X. The CPU matters just as much in 3DMark.

Umm, I was posting that to confirm what was stated. Those are my everyday clocks and didn't feel like adjusting anything to make the run. Btw, I'm more of AMD fan and could give a cucca about impressing you with a 3dmark score.

So if we take the 3Dmark scores (of the 290X/980/780Ti) and compare it to real world gaming performance, whats the hypothetical % increase for this ES?

It's going to be interesting to see how AMD's brute force HBM stacks up against big Maxwell's bandwidth efficiency improvements.. The enhanced color compression of Maxwell adds about 25% to the actual effective bandwidth, so GM200's bandwidth should be close to 400 GB/s. Also if NVidia doubles the L2 cache from 2MB to 4MB, then bandwidth efficiency will be even greater. I don't expect big Maxwell to have issues with 4K resolution considering that GM204 already competes with Hawaii in that aspect very well, even though Hawaii has significantly higher raw bandwidth.

But if R9 390x has nearly twice as much bandwidth as GM200, then it should conceivably handle 4K plus additional eye candy effects better than it's competitor.

Would such an increase in performance (70%!!) over the 290x be attainable on 28nm?

Considering AMD has competed sucessfully time over time with nvidia using smaller dies at least since the RV670, the strongest example of that would be the RV770 (256mm²) / GT200 (576mm²) era... Remember that slide that showed up a few months ago, stating work done on chips sized >350mm² (which turned out to be Tonga IIRC) and one >500mm² on 28nm? This one. The company is supposed to be AMD from what I remember. Let's suppose that chip is what we're seeing here. Let's suppose AMD decides to go nvidia (> 500mm²) on die size. Haven't we all ever given that a thought before?

Hawaii is 438mm², I can't see how much bigger this would have to become to get 2*290x kind of performance, save for a significant improvement in architecture (beyond what GCN 1.2 did for Tonga) or something along these lines... in addition to HBM. GDDR5 did the trick for RV770/4870 after all... GM200 seems to be ~630mm², but AMD wouldn't even think of going that big. Nvidia neither... up to now.


70% is insane. It reminds me of the earlier generations that relied on smaller nodes... Either there's some black magic going on, or the 20nm rumour might (and that's as far fetched as it gets) have some grounds... or what's more likely, the image is 'shopped. I'd really like to believe it isn't, the graphics card market has become quite boring lately.

Hope 390x/GM200 bring this kind of performance to the table, 4k on a single card would be awesome.
