I'm thinking about pc upgrades so I'm coming to all of you for advice, please full thoughtful opinions here!
Green team:
Why would you pick Nvidia over AMD?
Why would you pick the GTX 980ti over the Fury X?
What do you think makes Nvidia great and the best?
Red team:
Why would you pick AMD over Nvidia?
Why would you pick Fury X over GTX 980ti?
What do you think makes AMD great and the best?
The reasons I ask this is I am a AMD fan, I've had a 6950, 7970, and R9 290x. They haven't done me wrong. I am currently losing faith in AMD and their cards though. I take a look at their marketed "980ti/titan killer" card and see that it actually is not even close to beating it.
So two more questions, How was the Fury X suppose to beat the 980 ti when the specs are so much lower then it, and hard to OC it?
Fury X vs 980ti
Much wider memory bus //4,096 bit vs 384 bit Around 10.8x wider memory bus
Significantly better floating-point performance //8,602 GFLOPS vs 5,632 GFLOPS Around 55% better floating-point performance
Higher clock speed //1,050 MHz vs 1,000 MHz 5% higher clock speed
More shading units //4,096 vs 2,816 1280 more shading units
More texture mapping units //256 vs 176 80 more texture mapping units
980ti vs Fury X
Much higher effective memory clock speed //7,012 MHz vs 1,000 MHz More than 7x higher effective memory clock speed
More memory //6,144 MB vs 4,096 MB 50% more memory
Higher pixel rate //96 GPixel/s vs 67.2 GPixel/s Around 45% higher pixel rate
Much higher memory clock speed //1,753 MHz vs 500 MHz More than 3.5x higher memory clock speed
Significantly more render output processors //96 vs 64 32 more render output processors
Slightly lower TDP //250W vs 275W Around 10% lower TDP
Here are the specs according to GPUboss. So I see based on my "new-ish" experience with GPU's that the 980ti is the clear winner here, what do you think?
