AMD Radeon R9 Fury from XFX on input

Low access to the graphics circuit Fiji characterizes the enthusiast segment graphics cards from AMD, something that is not least visible on store shelves. Now the situation may be improving as at least one more player jumps on the Radeon R9 Fury train, which so far has been exclusive to Sapphire and Asus.

The graphics blog Videocardz publishes photos on a hitherto unknown graphics card from XFX, which from the photos is identical to Powercolor’s not yet launched Radeon R9 Fury. The fact that the graphics cards from the different players are identical could mean that they are based on a reference design from AMD.

Something that definitely follows AMD’s reference is the short circuit board. This means that the solid radiator, consisting of a heat sink and six heat conduction pipes, extends a bit over the graphics card itself. This means that the third fan blows all the air past, something that can have a positive effect on the cooling performance.

For the graphics card itself, it is the scaled-down graphics circuit Fiji Pro with 3,584 stream processors in a not yet known clock frequency, which, however, should be at 1,000 MHz or just above. This includes a 4,096-bit memory bus with 4 GB HBM at 500 MHz (1,000 MHz efficient) for a bandwidth of 512 GB / s.

When Radeon R9 Fury from XFX and Powercolor will find out in store is not clear.
