Just checking, you mean amdgpu-pro 16.20, right ? The 16.30 beta is just for SteamOS and Bonaire - you'll probably have more luck with the more broadly tested 16.20.

I don't remember what the deal was with the Radeon driver but it didn't help. amdgpu works but the card is rather slow. I tried both and without xorg.conf.

Looks like Dota 2 has some serious bottlenecking issues (guess their code isn't very cpu efficient...). This benchmark tells us that in the case where dota 2 bottlenecking happens, Nvidia takes the cake on 15% more efficient drivers (since they average 15fps higher than the radeon cards. very weird to see even the 960 and 950 outperforming fury and 290)
Maybe AMD should look into why the cpu bottleneck hits their cards about 15% harder than Nvidias cards...

It's a matter of setting up and maintaining Windows installations takes lots of time, routinely needing to reinstall if not activating them, etc.
And most of my test systems have only 120GB SSDs, which get rather filled up just having Linux plus a few Steam games.

That one is easy - brand new stack (at least the low level bits), still in beta, very little performance tuning so far.

Michael,
Pardon me if you addressed this already but is your fury X still in an pretty unusable state?
I ask, perhaps obviously, because you've been performing a decent number of benchmarks lately with the fury standing in as the top of the line amd chip.
Best,
Liam
