Hmm not sure what I'll upgrade to now.

Well to be fair those are EU prices.

So? Comparing swedish prices against swedish prices and figuring out the percentage increase in that country means it will see similar increase in other countries as well

Yeah the die is monstrous.

Do you think AMD would make many sales having 390X = Hawaii + 5% in 3dMark for similar prices to the 980?

Do you think AMD is so stupid that they would not understand that? If its priced similar to the 980, it has to be significantly faster to sell.

So either the price leak is wrong, or you're wrong regarding pushing this "rebrand" idea.

No, either the 390X benchmarks from videocards is wrong or you are wrong and AMD does plan to sell it at that price.

I have a different benchmark from 390X seeing the same tiny gain from 290X (<10%), but I havent bothered to post it since its not 3DMark which people here only understands.

EDIT: The benchmark of 390X shows exactly +7% over 290X

390x is not fury...

Do those benchmarks come from your "source"?

Hybrid cooler 390X, the top GDDR5 portion of the lineup. Also says AMD will be selling the Fury X WCE themselves which might explain how they have managed such a tight rein on information. Would mean AIBs only have access to the cut down version?

 

[Glo.]

So if it is 10% faster from R9 290X in 1440p, it gets on par with GTX980, and gets faster than Nvidia card at 4K, while costing less.

Not a bad deal at all.

 

[Cloudfire777]

Correct. 390X looks like a rebranded Hawaii with 1050MHz instead of 1000MHz from the looks of it. Of course I dont know the details about power consumption, but the two benchmarks is nowhere close to +20% over 980. Its actually slightly below 980

Why don't you post those benchmarks here, Cloud?

 

[maddie]

We will see in a couple weeks.

IF FIJI = 600MM2

THEN FIJI = 295x2 PERFORMANCE.

 

[Grooveriding]

Why don't you post those benchmarks here, Cloud?

Please no. No more completely wrong information from a 'source'. D:

He is not allowed to post any rumors on these AMD cards.

But 13 more days and there will be no need for any rumors.

A little bit on the expensive side, but not surprising given the Euro has lost ~20% of it's value vis-a-vis the USD over the last year.

 

[Cloudfire777]

Why don't you post those benchmarks here, Cloud?

Allright since you asked. Its a system benchmark, and the second result is the result from the GPU benchmark.

R9 290X 4GB
It scored 157333.

GTX 970 4GB
It scored 156584.

R9 390X 8GB
It scored 167345.

As you can see, GTX 970 and R9 290X score the same since they are equal in performance. R9 390X score about 7% more than 290X.

Yeah the die is monstrous.

Can someone analyze the size of the die based on this clearer photo? That's actually my favorite form of speculation. Die size should give us a great chance as projecting performance.

A question though: Do we have any idea of how much die space HBM memory controller takes on-die for Fiji?

That is a monster die. now that difficult wait till June 16th for the real specs and architectural details. :thumbsup:

Cut.

Fair enough, thank you.

 

[flopper]

We will see in a couple weeks.

Need a drink for sure now.

 

[raghu78]

yeah > 600 sqmm definitely. I cannot believe that AMD built a GPU die bigger than Nvidia. Hopefully they have some serious archtiectural improvements to increase perf/sp and take the GPU crown. :biggrin:

 

[Kenmitch]

Probably about the best measurement one can get without a high res photo.

Will be interesting to see the reviews once they drop.

 

[tential]

Photoshop and trolls run rampant online yet we believe every single rumor posted about this launch.... Lol.

It's almost amusing to see what cloudfire thinks after each rumor comes out

I`m here for your entertainment.

But seriously, both my benchmarks I posted above and Videocardz both show that 390X is about 5-10% faster than 290X.
If AMD made improvement regarding power consumption I have no idea yet.

Today WCCFTech say R9 390X will cost $499. Where will that put Radeon Fury X with HBM and 40-50% more cores? The rumored $849 posted countless times doesnt sound so crazy after all...
