980 is not the top card either. So I don't know what you want to say with that. It's actually really surprising that they managed to boost the performance of the 390X as much as they did even though it's just a rebrand with minor improvements. the 390X is the direct opponent to the 980 while the Fury X goes directly against the 980ti. The fury Pro should be somewhere between 980 and 980ti. |
Yes, but then there's AMD's Fury Nano which they say will be faster than a 290X, putting it against the 980 too.
I think that Fury X and Fury are have the same chip, and that the main difference is the cooling. There's only $100 between them, there's no way AMD only charges that much for a better chip and the best cooling any reference card has ever had. But it makes sense to charge that little if the only difference is the cooler.
That would leave Fury X on par with 980Ti with lots of room for OC'ing, then the regular, air-cooled, Fury again on par with 980Ti but with limited OC-ability, and lastly Fury Nano to compete with the 980.
