If I didnt need to upgrade my PSU to take this I'd be buying it. Arrrrggghhh!

Jake, most of your questions are answered in the post above, but your existing card really doesn't measure up to a Fury in any respect - David and Goliath.
If your PSU can take it there's nothing at that price that will touch it. I'm actually going to measure up and see if I can accommodate another...
Which brings me to my next point, make sure you can physically fit the card in your chassis, these cards are LONG.
If it's anything like my Sapphire, you'll need a PSU with the relevant connections, 2x 8 PIN. TDP under load is circa 200W, it'll peak at 225W under insane load.
Just read the spec on Novatech, ignore the minimum PSU spec. I'm running an i7 4770K on a 650W, these will run on a decent 500W just fine.
Voted hot OP, superb deal!
For those holding out on the next cards, rumour is they too will use HBM2 which I think ultimately will benefit existing HBM cards from a driver perspective. Also worth noting that this card is overkill for 1080P, really it stretches its legs at 1440P.

This Fury will sit in the middle of the Fury X and Nano benchs.

I have a Fury. This is a steal.
The Fury sits between the 1060 and 1070 (more so 1070 side) and excels in DX12 and particularly Vulkan, DX11 also fine.
I run mine at 1440p with every game I own on Ultra with very few exceptions (Star Citizen, crap (no) optimisation), it makes minced meat of BF1, Doom, Squad, CIV.
There's no reason the card won't remain relevant for another 2/3 years as far as I'm concerned, with the HBM architecture you can largely ignore the 4GB VRAM, the bus is so broad.
Get it, now.

I'd be very surprised if you regret the purchase :smile: .
FreeSync is sweet and with AMD you've paid no premium for variable refresh rate tech! :smile: .
Cheers :smiley: , if you are thinking about getting a RX 480 I would take this card over that :wink: .
I went from a 290X which OC'd to 1100/1525 to Fury / X back in March 16 and luv it :smile: .
I had a Vapor-X 290X and have owned Tri-X 290 plus Asus DCUII 290X and Fury / X out of the box are cooler/quieter running cards :sunglasses: .
Here is 3DM FS Vapor-X 290X vs Fury X. The 290X has very heavily modified custom ROM, Fury X only voltage/clocks, same rig used but driver versions differ due to not having the cards at the same time.

Despite its age, it is a great price for a great card. This drop makes me wonder if new AMD GPU's are about to go on sale though...

How's this compare to a 1060? Thanks...

Better, the fury can give a 1070 a run for its money in dx11

Seems my PSU would take it.
Couple of questions:
What sort of improvement will I get over my 3gb 780?
Is 4gb RAM going to be sufficient in 2 years time?
I only game at 1080p at the moment. Thanks,
Jake.

It should be significantly faster than a 780. By the way, you should really upgrade your ram to at least 8gb.

After all the effort you went to in your post it seemed rude not to order. Now to sell my 780.

Hot!
Just bought myself a Christmas present:). This one will do until Vega release. My new monitor has Freesync so has to skip Nvidia.
Thank you!

That's impressive power and makes my aging R9 270 look slow. Nearly bought MSI 480 card during Black Friday and decided to hold out for new year sales.
