AMD Fury no 980Ti killer

that is what it says, but actually he rigged the test.  Its probably even worse.  

In this graph, I'm showing full-system power draw during testing. This test has clock speeds fixed at 1100 MHz for better comparison.

You see, they locked the speed at 1100mhz!!!!
That means that the power consumption results are not showing the card with a 5% overclock.  That 27% figure is not based on the card running with a 5% higher overclock.  He fixed the clock speed at 1100mhz.  With +144mv his gpu clocks at about 1220mhz.  He talks about the extra 5% potential in his power consumption commentary but did not show the actual results of 1220mhz @ +144mv.  The results would have been worse.  Possibly, way worse.......most likely, way way worse

and they are already, really really bad

he says, "Looking at the numbers, I'm not sure if a 150W power draw increase for a mere 3 FPS increase is worth it for most gamers. Smaller voltage bumps to get a specific clock frequency 100% stable are alright, though."  BUT------> the power consumption results are from his card at 1100mhz.  There is no extra 3 fps, it is not accurate.   At 1220mhz, his power consumption could would have been worse

Hahahaha, good observation! 

What doesn't make sense at all is that the Fury non-X is $120 more than the R9 390X, for only 10% more performance, but has HALF the VRAM. 

Never seen anything like this before.
