Probably busy walking in Vegas rather than working on Vega?
I miss the old days, when I was so impressed by my Athlon Barton 2500+ and 9500 Pro.
Yep, AMD marketing at it's best - devoid of any reality - maybe in a game with an AMD video card (in the game) it is the king of the world and VR premium, of course the game is being run by a Nvidia card with a Vive .But they're already telling me they provide a premium VR experience, so why bother going any further?
Fury X is an excellent card (I own one and am very pleased with it). For practical purposes it is nearly the equivalent to the 1070 which came out a full year later.
What frequency is the whine? I don't hear above 16khz, but if it's not above that frequency then I don't have any whine on my first go. Who hoo! It's seldom I get lucky with technology.Assuming you can get one that doesn't have the pump whine issue, overall since they launched I've went through 5 of them, 2 at launch which were returned, and a few over the last few months for other builds for people, the most recent of which was today and all had the supposed "fixed" issue. =/

Mine is a XFX Fury X

RX480 is so popular they still can't keep them on the shelves.
AMD stock has basically tripled in the last four months.
Despite not releasing a killer card they are doing better than they have for some time.
Along with the rest of the original R3xx lineup (Radeon 9700, Radeon 9800, Radeon 9600, and their AIW variants).I miss the old days, when I was so impressed by my Athlon Barton 2500+ and 9500 Pro.

I still have the AIW 9700 Pro (the first AIW to not suffer from underclocking compared to the non-AIW version); the ONLY failure it had was the power cable. (Connect a floppy power cable and all was right again - I still keep it in the spare drawer.)
Nah, they moved everything to China remember? Not sure there are any Americans left.
Not a fan of Israel but it seems to be working great for Intel. Americans aren't the pinnacle of human evolution and education, bruh.
Yea but so did AMD, 9000 series was beast mode, then came the R5xx series (AKA the Xbox 360 Chip) and i recall when i replaced my 9600 AIW, with an X800XL it was dual slot like the GT6800 series and up.Back in those days nVidia started releasing cards that required two slots for the first time because of heat issues and chewed up power. ATi and their fanboys gave them tons of crap for being extremely hot and inefficient. My how times have changed.

You forgot X850 XT and XT PE cards. Those were dual slot.The X800 cards were all single slot (even my X800 XT AIW was single slot.) It wasn't until the X1800 series that ATi went Dual slot. They spent the entire 9000 and X800 series of cards ragging on nVidia for their high end cards being hot, loud, and inefficient. Of course it wasn't too long after that AMD bought out ATi and their chips started to suck more frequently than not and by that time everyone was dual-slot and people forgot about all the BS they were giving nVidia for it and just accepted it.

yea i guess im so used to dual slot i remembered incorrectly lol, i had to look up my old card to make sureAh, you're right. I completely forgot about the 850. The X800 XT cards already outperformed the 6800 Ultra and the X850 cards were just kind of a middle finger to nVidia but they did have 2-slot cooling. They were still extremely power efficient though compared to the nvidia cards of the time.

Intel did the same after watching AMD Barton cores whoop their bum bum, when they were just dumping voltage to raise clockspeed and generating SHIT TONS of heat in their P4 cpus. Then came Core 2 Duo, and then came the new nVidia cards, and things became different for the red and green boys, and suddenly being blue and green was better, more expensive sure, but better.Yeah, it was quite a while ago. I just find it interesting how things have switched around since then. After nVidia got so much crap about the 5800 Ultra and the 6800 Ultra (to a lesser degree) they really started talking about efficiency and performance per watt. That experience helped them in the long run. Every company stumbles, I just hope AMD hasn't gone down so far they can't come back. I like seeing them in the higher end space.
It is absolutely imperative that AMD get ZEN right and I think that's where most of their resources are going right now. Once they get ZEN out and, if it doesn't mirror Bulldozer, they can start sinking resources into Vega/Navi.

AMD needs to give the GPU division their ATI name back...
