I am having hard time with 390x vs Fury Strix they are pretty much 7-13% apart, with 390x custom you are talking about even smaller difference. Where is all the power going from the added 768 shaders. Same for Fury X that has 1280 more shaders it simply isn't utilized. Fury X is only 10-19% faster then 290x(sorry 390x) it totally should be closer to 25% all in all faster but nope. The difference between something like 290x and 280x is already over ~23% 390x adds to that and it grows to ~30% (even tho 290x and 390x are the same card). Then Fury X gives really minimal boost with 30% more shaders then 390x 😀 and even the Fury having way more shaders gives nothing really in real world applications kind of really inefficient.

290x the card that keeps ticking and running very well for its price,sorta too well for fury sake

yeah and its a p0wer hog too but that don't make it a bad card 🤓 nothing say's hot and porky like my 480's and I like them too

Cept that it runs waaaaaaaaaaay too hot.

It runs cool enough 😉 after changing the thermal paste it runs around 78 max when clocked to 1100/1400 on the msi gaming twinfrzr cooler 😯 Now the stock cooler for sure runs way too hot 😀
