Wow, wasted 90 seconds of my life watching the video... seriously ..

 

[natr0n]

Like one of those excessively long bad youtube intro videos.

 

[VSG]

I recall making similar videos in middle school to accompany PowerPoint presentations when I had to kill time. Lots of hype here, and now we wait for the actual content to see if it's justified.

 

[INSTG8R]

The video highlights the performance improvements, and new features.

I didn’t see anything of the sort...I’m with W1z that was a complete waste of time. Sadly my Fury will be left out of any improvements anyway as always...

Instead of paying some agency for that video they could have hired a student for a year to give some love to Fury owners...

 

[Capitan Harlock]

I really don't give bananas if they don't support Fury X when is not too far away behind Vega 56.

Yeah it’s pretty sad, the fact is Fury is still the Flagship before Vega yet it’s been the most neglected flagship I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a lot of ATI/AMD flagship cards in the last 20 years. I mean I’m still happy with it but it’s sad it’s been so forgotten. I mean we could have at least gotten a full featured Wattman like Polaris got....

Coming from W1zzard, the confirmation of Fury/X's death felt even worse.

@fullinfusion See? No more Fury/X support.

At least you didn't pay for some jacked up launch proce for a FuryX. I feel like the ultimate sucker for buying into their BS FuryX

Awesome you saved me 90s of my life.

I only waited as long as it took for custom cards and jumped right on. The bonus is I also have a Fury X on air and I didn’t even do that trick until maybe last year.

Does AMD know that Adrenalin is a trademarked name, according to Wikipedia? (yeah it's also the alternative spelling of adrenaline)

Also, yeah it's early, anyone possibly with more info know what the lowest GPU this will support?

 

[RejZoR]

Polaris and Vega. So, everything from RX4xx upwards.

 

[Readlight]

Whit fresh custom windows 7 + Linux Zorin OS it would be awesome. I can spend 10 euros for good operating system.

 

[T4C Fantasy]

i have a 1070 and 1080 ti, why am i in love with the idea of Vega getting full potential unlocked

 

[Fluffmeister]

PowerPoint slide overload incoming!

 

[dozenfury]

AMD learned long ago that marketing is a lot cheaper than R&D...

 

[dj-electric]

Negative PR is negative, and the shitshow at RTG continues onwards

Wonder if they finally fixed the Overwatch bug that hasn't been fixed since 17.7.

Never had that bug myself and I've been playing on and off since Overwatch release with monthly driver updates. Moira David Bowe skin still eludes me

Dude, sell the card already, buy a 920 for the time being, complaining and not providing a solution gets you nowhere.

i have a 1070 and 1080 ti, why am i in love with the idea of Vega getting full potential unlocked

Because it's FUN! Just like when Phenom 2 X2 555BE would unlock fully into 965/B55s with multiplier/fsb unlocked!

Dude I am broke. New GPU is my last priority as of now. Still owe weekly payments to my daughter's day care.
