AMD Radeon R9 Fury X is the new flagship

There was debate if Fury is the correct codename for the upcoming flagship GPU, but according to the newest slides posted by HardwareBattle, it seems we finally know the truth. If those slides are legit, and I believe they are (HardwareBattle are quite accurate when it comes to GPU leaks), then it’s confirmed that this tiny Radeon card that were were seeing for the past 2 week is in fact Radeon R9 Fury X.

Here’s the description of the new flagship card, taken supposedly from official presentation:

AMD Radeon R9 Fury X AMD’s most advanced and innovative GPU to date, AMD Radeon™ R9 Fury X graphics delivers the highest GPU memory and width ever for unparalleled 4K and VR gaming.

Now, here’s the official render of Fiji silicon. We can clearly see 4 HBM stacks like we saw during official presentation by Lisa Su at Computex.



Now a closer look at Fury X display connectors. AMD Fury X has 4 display outputs, three DisplayPorts and one HDMI. Notice there are no perforations on the bracket, which means there is no ‘hidden’ fan on the card, it’s all handled by the radiator and its own fan, which is mounted elsewhere.
