    Well perhaps that's where Fury X should be priced at considering what the GTX 980 Ti can do. Of course I jest. And no I'm not worried about it, just multi-GPU is an incredible niche and harping on that one feature is ridiculous. The SLI performance of NVIDIA cards often sees huge gains in...

    AMD did bill the Fury X as an "overclockers dream" and well it just isn't.

    Maybe Roy is right :P?

    Although Multi-GPU performance may be the pinacle to you, it's not what drives the majority of sales. We are having a discussion about AMD in general terms as a company and while having the best Multi-GPU performance is nice, it's sadly a niche of the market and consumers main focus is single...

    That's great dual card performance, but in the same graph a single GTX 980 Ti handily beats a single Fury X. And that is just one title. If you look at HardOCP's review of the Fury X under 4K it shows the GTX 980 Ti in-front in almost every test and the ones it doesn't come ahead in, it matches...

    Both cards at stock though? - I have two GTX 780's which have the same TDP of 250 Watts as the GTX 980 Ti and I believe the same cooler (correct me if I'm wrong they look identical). My cards were practically inaudible while gaming at stock, not when OCing. But the Fury X doesn't really OC...

    Maybe if you're spending all that money on two cards to game at 1080p. But lets face it, 4K and above in titles that need the memory it just isn't good enough. I'd rather buy the 980 Ti's and have the memory breathing room. Not to mention, two Fury X's in one system with those water coolers...

    I'm aware of that which is why I said they pulled the trigger too soon. I think they should have stuck with GDDR5 for one more round and then used HBM2. You can't really release a 4GB product as your flagship when your competitor is doing 6GB for the same price and 12GB on their flagship...

    AMD really messed up the Fury line card launches. Firstly, delays. It felt like we were being endlessly teased about HBM and the Fury X. The anticipation was high. Then when it finally came out, the GTX 980 Ti was already here with 6GB of memory. The Fury X priced the same as the 980 Ti...

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    I figured out why I had that problem with my Arrays not showing on boot up. I thought the problem went away after upgrading the firmware but it didn't. After a few cold boots it came back. I thought hard about the cause when one time I booted up and I got the message "SAS Topology Invalid" from...

    Sounds that way yes. I have no problems with mine with the latest firmware and performance even before today has always been very very good.

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    Right now I have two arrays connected to the Expander which then goes to a LSI 9260-4i (Hardware Raid Card). 3x320GB in RAID0 3x4TB in RAID5 I get 250MB/s write on the 3x4TB in RAID5. I've not really benchmarked it so that is just what Windows Explorer tells me when I'm moving gigabytes of...

    HP SAS Expander Owner's Thread

    I just wanted to follow up and say thank you for this advice. I just finally got around to doing some maintenance on the server so I upgraded the Driver, Firmware and MegaRaid Software and this does appear to have solved my problem. Straight after the firmware was upgraded (and the resulting...

    Seems so as I'm using SATA III Disks, RAID and Expander and they only get negotiated at SATA II. Firmware is 2.08 on the expander.

    Thank you for telling me. I wasn't aware they had released new firmware this month. I'll install that soon. Contains quite a lot of fixes and changes actually!
