AMD's Radeon R9 Fury X AIO Pump Now Ships with Adjusted Sound Baffling Adhesive for Near Silent Noise Level

AMD'south Pump Whine effect caused a chip of a rumble in the past month, just the company has swiftly and adequately dealt with the entire affair. Quality Assurance during a product'southward lifetime is always precarious for electronics and graphic cards are no exception. So the fact that AMD in collaboration with Cooler Master Usa have stock-still an arguably insignificant problem is applaudable. furyx-16b

AMD releases official update on Radeon Fury X pump whine issue

The event, which resulted in a loftier pitched squeal emanating from the AIO pump housed inside the GPU was really an oversight past Cooler Principal USA. Once AMD was alerted to the issue, they released informal updates to us ad other publications over the class of the problem. The following release signals an end to the known issues of Fury X:

We have received feedback that during open demote testing a small number of Fury Ten cards emit a audio from the high speed liquid cooling pump that, while not loud, is bothersome to some users. While the vast majority of initial Fury X owners report remarkably placidity performance, we have this feedback seriously, as AMD'southward mission is to always deliver the best possible feel to our Radeon customers.

AMD Radeon R9 Fury X customers demand and deserve the all-time, so adjustments in the audio baffling adhesive compound were practical in the associates of the high speed cooling pump to address the specific sound a few end users experienced as problematic. This improved the acoustic profile of the pump, and repeat testing shows the specific pitch/audio in question was largely reduced through adjustments to the sound-baffling agglutinative compound in the pump.

AMD will piece of work with its graphic carte partners to ensure the satisfaction of the small number of initial customers who observed this specific audio and experienced it as bothersome. AMD is confident that on-going production of Radeon R9 Fury 10 production reduces the specific sound in question, but this is as well a highly subjective matter with wide differences in PC instance builds and room acoustics.

The AMD Radeon™ R9 Fury X radiator fan is most silent, and this makes any sound from the high-speed pump more noticeable to some terminate users, especially during open bench testing. Thus although the overall sound levels are remarkably low for an enthusiast product, AMD has worked to reduce the specific audio that some customers report equally bothersome.

Ofcourse how would a prospective AMD Radeon R9 Fury X buyer actually figure out which version he or she owns? Unfortunately, the just authentic indicator is inside the hood. Although you would exist able to tell (by listening to the audio) when you lot have your carte for a exam driver whether it is a problematic unit or not - if y'all still want to be certain, remove the face plate. Cooler Master has thankfully updated the logo from the old white and bluish schematic and will serve equally a cinch method to guarantee you lot have the updated pump. I accept taken the liberty of making a comparison image below, if you the one on the right, feel free to RMA.
