AMD Radeon R9 Fury X
Reasons To Buy
- ✓ Compact for a high-end card geared toward 4K gaming output.
- ✓ Runs quiet and cool, thanks to bundled radiator and fan.
- ✓ Roughly matches Nvidia's GeForce GTX 980 Ti at 4K and high settings.
Reasons To Avoid
- ✗ Overall performance slides in just behind Nvidia's competing card, especially at lower resolutions.
- ✗ Radiator complicates installation, takes up space gained by smaller card.
- ✗ Lack of HDMI 2.0 port makes card an iffy choice for gaming on a 4K HDTV.
