Has anyone tested the R9 Fury PLP? I just built a big rig with SLI 980 TIs, but between the idea of natively running PLP and shitty shitty shitty drivers (I cant even use the 980s) I'm thinking about going 2x Fury (dont have the radiator space for 2x Fury X)

r9 380 4gb is working with portrait-landscape-portrait flipped. total of 5250x1600 with bezel

got trouble because it wrongly detect a recommand resolution of 1280x800 instead of 2560x1600 on my 30"
i could set it to 2560x1600 in windows but it always change to 1280x800 when setting eyefinity group.
i change the resolution order with custom resolution utility and then eyefinity group work correctly.

Thanks for the update. I finally got my refund for my 980s and Newegg had 1 Asus R9 Fury Strix (Aircooled) so I snagged it up. I'll be ordering another as soon as they're in stock. Read on a user review that the R9 Fury support PLP as well (was a Sapphire branded R9). Looking forward to it!

ithrial thanks for spotting Fury's PLP proof (in Reviews, by adam g. here:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814202156

(added R9 Fury to summary post)

edit Aug 8 2015:
AMD has released a new display driver, version 15.20.1062. More cards may work now. Hopefully Club3D will retest their R9 390X (which failed PLP on previous 15.20 beta driver).

edit: R9 380, great news! But sounds like driver's bit buggy still. thanks for testing it illogique

Hey Guys,

I have a dell 20 30 20 setup and I'm ready to make the switch to AMD from Nvidia and get some official support for PLP gaming instead of using 3rd party software. I think I'm going with the R9 380 4gb with plans to buy another one soon as prices continue to drop. This thread hasn't been updated in a while but was wondering if they worked out some of the bugs with new driver's? Illogique or anyone else who has this card can you tell me how it's working out for you?
Thank you in advance,
Ryan

Yes. Well, for me.I use a Fury X and the last 2 driver versions (the current one being 15.10 ) gave me effortless PLP with a 24-32-24 setup. Love it. The 380 uses the same GCN version and Fuji series, which apparently increases your odds.

Will R9 390 support or R9 380X ?

R9 390 & R9 390X are GCN 1.1. That architecture is unlikely to work in Eyefinity PLP. But it may, with a future driver update. I'm guessing no dice, hope I'm wrong.

R9 Fury may be around your theoretical power-level, & works for sure. Later 2016 will have more choices.

Regarding R9 380, it is a decent overclocker. It was improved in this way from R9 285.
All/most R9 380 cards seem to overclock to ~ 1135-1175MHz (with voltage increase & stock cooling & fan schedule increase).

great to know that furyx does indeed supports eyefinity plp.

looking to upgrade from quad 290x to quad furyx (although triple furyx might be sufficient).

the question to seal the deal. can someone confirm "if" eyefinity plp also works in crossfire?

UaVaj, Crossfire works in Eyefinity PLP. It was confirmed by Thebutcher here on wsgf. Couple months back, don't remember which post.
