Title: AMD R9 FuryX Vid Card w/ Alpha
Post by: Pudgie on August 07, 2015, 04:01:48 PM
Hi All,

I got my Sapphire Radeon R9 FuryX vid card in today, installed it using Cat WHQL 15.7.1 drivers (latest drivers) & all is running well.

I flew around in the Alpha some w/ the Alpha set up in Video Settings for native res @ 2560x1440, V-synch on & Most AA, 4096 textures, 2048 res & ingame for full graphics (all 3 sliders full right, EM set @2 & all checkboxes unchecked except for "Disable Ground Clutter when in Flight". Here is a snippet of the FuryX's vitals under these settings:

Looks pretty good at this time.......................

1 thing to note:

This FuryX doesn't look to benchmark too well vs other vid cards............

Here is a Unigine Valley benchmark:

But it shows to have no issues running the Alpha at all..........

Here she is snuggled in my CM Storm Scout Gen 1 case:

Seems to run AHII w/ ease..................

More testing to come.
