now, how soon before we can get some of these compared to stock along with over-clockability? early reports are somewhat discouraging, pending new firmware to allow tweaks/OC, and also wondering how much cooling performance gains, if any, a 3rd party water block would give?

There are already reports of unofficial overclocks, including both core and memory. Info here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1562593/hardware-info-hbm-on-furyx-can-be-overclocked-after-all/0_20

Honestly, I really don't want to get into the Fury X. The GPUs really need to move on to a new die size already. I think over-clocking a matured process node where every bit has already been squeezed out of these cards to be unproductive. I thought the R9 290X was on this process node for too long, The Fury X is pretty much the same thing with more efficient memory.

The smallest block a video cards needed in how long and it's still $130.

Safe to say that you are correct. Same with CPUs really, we have been getting very low increases in performance.
