According to the latest rumor, it appears that AMD Fury X availability will be even worse than we expected as the company will have just 30,000 units in 2015.
Coming from Tweaktown.com, the rumor states AMD will have just 30,000 units of Radeon Fury and Fury X graphics card in 2015, which is low by any standard, especially if we are talking about worldwide availability.
The low supply is mostly due to High Bandwidth Memory and difficulty in making stacked memory chips next to the GPU on interposer. While we did hear that availability will be quite limited we honestly doubt that it will be that bad and 30k units is probably the worst case scenario, as HBM yields could get better with time.
AMD will definitely try to respin the limited availability of Radeon Fury lineup with the new Radeon R9 390X with 8GB of GDDR5 memory, which is based on improved Hawaii GPU and a rebranded Radeon R9 290X.
Yield issues with HMB could get better next year, but we will be looking at HBM2 next year. In any case we will be keeping a closer eye on AMD Radeon Fury availability and hopefully it will not be as bad as the rumor states.
