AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Pictured Some More
Here are some of the clearest pictures of AMD's next-generation flagship graphics card, the Radeon R9 Fury X. Much like the R9 295X2, this card features an AIO liquid cooling solution. With the relocation of memory from chips surrounding the GPU to the GPU package as stacked HBM, the resulting PCB space savings translate into a card that's very compact. Under its hood is a full-coverage liquid cooling pump-block, which is plumbed to a thick 120 mm x 120 mm radiator. The card draws power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 1.2a, and one HDMI 2.0.

AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Confirmed SKU Name for "Fiji XT"
The bets are off, AMD's latest flagship graphics card will indeed get a fancy name, and it will be named Radeon R9 Fury X. Korean tech-site HardwareBattle leaked a product flyer with the SKU name, and its catchphrase "revolutionary, inside out." Based on the 28 nm "Fiji" silicon, the R9 Fury X is expected to feature 4,096 stream processors, 256 TMUs, 128 ROPs, and a 4096-bit wide HBM memory interface, holding 4 GB of memory.
The reference-design Fury X will come with an AIO cooling solution, likely designed by Asetek, featuring a Cooler Master made fan, ventilating its 120 x 120 mm radiator. Just as the Radeon R9 290X did away with D-Sub (VGA) support (even with dongles), Fiji does away with the DVI connector. You still get three DisplayPort 1.2a ports, and a single HDMI 2.0 connector. The card has been pictured on the web featuring two 8-pin PCIe power connectors.
