  • Hello and Welcome to another Budget Builds video, where today we're taking a look at a much awaited video. My very own AMD Fury, a card that has a reputation; one both good, and also pretty damn bad. Still join me today as we take a look at both sides of the argument, and see some suprising performance in a range of titles.

      I had a fury myself. I used it for a while and it sucked in gta V. I bought a 980 Ti with the money I got from selling the Fury. I had the same model fury that boosted to 1050mhz and could barely OC it to 1100mhz. It was a very warm card as well I should mention but its a good card in general. Indeed the vram is a limitation tho.

      I sold my GTX 1070 a couple of months ago and got a used Vega 64 Nitro+ for nearly the same price. In some titles it outperforms the 1070 by a long shot with UV+OC, but many newer games run unexpectedly bad. The raw performance is there but it does not translate to higher fps somehow, maybe due to bad drivers.

    The Nano was the real jewel in the crown from that generation. Same core configuration as the Fury X but at a TBP of 175 W and in an ITX suitable form factor. It runs about 10% lower clocks to get there, but the top 10% of clocks on these cards are the ones that give you the least performance. I was using one as my main until recently, and it performs somewhere in the middle between an RX 580 and a GTX 1660 Super/ti. As you say, it's just about picking the right settings. Despite the tiny heat sink and single fan it never got above 74c. Probably my sentimental favourite of all the cards I've owned.

    Jeez, I have this same card. I had tons of WHEA uncorrectables this year, you think it was caused by the drivers? By the way, I don't know if you faced this, but mine still (as in for a few years now) keeps the fans off even on video encoding. I have to set a profile for every new game I play, otherwise it goes to 70-75c and stays there with the fans off(!). I really have no idea why, it's been this way since I think 19.2 (at least since then, I had afterburner with a custom profile before then so it might have handled the fans itself).

    • @BudgetBuildsOfficial
      @BudgetBuildsOfficial  3 года назад

      That's a feature of the card. It should idle with the fans off. Upto a temperature of around 55°C where fans kick in.
      It shouldn't get anywhere near that hot. That's what mine runs at under full load in Furmark. It could be bad thermal paste. But I doubt it.

It could be that the thermal pads are dry now, but that's really no explanation as to why the fans "refuse" to spin unless I force them to. I think I'll start digging in the settings this weekend.

    I know it is a reasonable performance comparison between GPUs as it is an ongoing consideration after purchase but except for my RX550 I've never bothered to check power consumption for any of my GPUs I have bought for gaming,
    The only reason I did check the RX550 is I was seeing how little power usage was running with my Athlon200GE,
    I built this as a silly experiment to see what was the 'Cheapest New Gaming PC' I could build with a Real GPU
    , I was so impressed with the Athlon it is now my HTPC,
    I can't remember the GPU OC but I had the 200GE to 4GHz@1.41v (it's daily setting is now 3.8GHz@1.3v), with the OC Running CB20 & Furmark together I almost got to 150W for whole PC

    Still using my Fury as well, I actually have two but crossfire is dead so I just use one. Testing this card with settings appropriate for it was a really good idea, people think it's slower than it actually can be, just because there are a few settings that make more of a difference on it than on other cards.
    You're right about these cards going up in price tho, it's really odd. In 2019 I snagged one for for just 95$ and not as a one off but there were a bunch of other cards for around that price, now they are more like 150$ locally. Drivers were also definitely a problem before the whole bad drivers for Navi situation blew up around Feburary, since then I haven't had a single problem with drivers and it seems that whatever they did fixed some of the issues on Fiji as well.
    4Gb also hasn't been a problem for me, for whatever thats worth given that i dont really play that many modern games. But ye all and all im happy with my card too, it's not gonna be worth to upgrade from it until the around 200$ cards finally get refreshed, it's been the same performance tier there for a while.

    I think the reason why the Fury family got such a muted reception is because AMD (and ATI, pre-merger) has this reputation of taking bold technological leaps that completely blow their far larger competitors out of the water, and people had gotten it into their heads that HBM was going to deliver the same kind of quantum leap in performance that the Radeon 9700's 256-bit memory bus did back in the day. Instead, what we got was a perfectly competent series of cards, but one that wasn't really overwhelmingly better than the likes of the R9 290 or the GTX980.
