About the AMD Radeon R9 FURY GPU

The AMD Radeon R9 FURY is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q3 2015 with a MSRP of $549. It is built on the GCN 3.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Fiji) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The R9 FURY has 4 GB of HBM memory, with a 500 MHz memory clock and a 4,096 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 512 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The R9 FURY includes 3,584 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,000 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 224 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The R9 FURY occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 1.4a, DisplayPort 1.2 display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 600 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 275 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The R9 FURY has the 128th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 16.77% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 17,543 score and $549 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 31.95. This is the 78th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2021 with a MSRP of $599. It is built on the Ampere GPU microarchitecture (codename GA104) and is manufactured on a 8 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3070 Ti has 8 GB of GDDR6X memory, with a 1,188 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 608.3 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 3070 Ti includes 6,144 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,575 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,770 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 192 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 96 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 192 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 48 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 3070 Ti occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 600 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 290 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 3070 Ti has the 27th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 47.57% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 49,760 score and $599 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 83.07. This is the 34th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.
