Editor, Reviews & News I recall making similar videos in middle school to accompany PowerPoint presentations when I had to kill time. Lots of hype here, and now we wait for the actual content to see if it's justified. Posted on Nov 30th 2017, 15:07 Reply

Vanguard Beta Tester btarunr The video highlights the performance improvements, and new features. I didn’t see anything of the sort...I’m with W1z that was a complete waste of time. Sadly my Fury will be left out of any improvements anyway as always... I didn’t see anything of the sort...I’m with W1z that was a complete waste of time.

Instead of paying some agency for that video they could have hired a student for a year to give some love to Fury owners...

I really don't give bananas if they don't support Fury X when is not too far away behind Vega 56. Posted on Nov 30th 2017, 15:14 Reply

Vanguard Beta Tester Capitan Harlock I really don't give bananas if they don't support Fury X when is not too far away behind Vega 56. Yeah it’s pretty sad, the fact is Fury is still the Flagship before Vega yet it’s been the most neglected flagship I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a lot of ATI/AMD flagship cards in the last 20 years. I mean I’m still happy with it but it’s sad it’s been so forgotten. I mean we could have at least gotten a full featured Wattman like Polaris got....

At least you didn't pay for some jacked up launch proce for a FuryX. I feel like the ultimate sucker for buying into their BS FuryX Coming from W1zzard, the confirmation of Fury/X's death felt even worse. @fullinfusion See? No more Fury/X support.At least you didn't pay for some jacked up launch proce for a FuryX. I feel like the ultimate sucker for buying into their BS FuryX Posted on Nov 30th 2017, 15:27 Reply

I feel like the ultimate sucker for buying into their BS FuryX I only waited as long as it took for custom cards and jumped right on. The bonus is I also have a Fury X on air and I didn’t even do that trick until maybe last year. I only waited as long as it took for custom cards and jumped right on.

Does AMD know that Adrenalin is a trademarked name, according to Wikipedia? (yeah it's also the alternative spelling of adrenaline)



Also, yeah it's early, anyone possibly with more info know what the lowest GPU this will support? Posted on Nov 30th 2017, 16:07 Reply
