Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 980 Ti vs Radeon R9 Fury X
IntroThe GeForce GTX 980 Ti makes use of a 28 nm design. nVidia has set the core speed at 1000 MHz. The GDDR5 RAM is set to run at a frequency of 1750 MHz on this model. It features 2816 SPUs as well as 176 TAUs and 96 ROPs.Compare all of that to the Radeon R9 Fury X, which features core clock speeds of 1050 MHz on the GPU, and 500 MHz on the 4096 MB of HBM memory. It features 4096 SPUs as well as 256 TAUs and 64 Rasterization Operator Units.

Power Usage and Theoretical BenchmarksPower Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory BandwidthThe Radeon R9 Fury X, in theory, should be quite a bit faster than the GeForce GTX 980 Ti overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe Radeon R9 Fury X should be much (about 53%) faster with regards to texture filtering than the GeForce GTX 980 Ti. (explain)
Pixel RateIf running with a high resolution is important to you, then the GeForce GTX 980 Ti is superior to the Radeon R9 Fury X, by a large margin. (explain)
Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit. Price Comparison

Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the maximum amount of data (in units of megabytes per second) that can be moved over the external memory interface in a second. It is worked out by multiplying the card's bus width by its memory clock speed. If the card has DDR RAM, it must be multiplied by 2 again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The higher the memory bandwidth, the better the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, High Dynamic Range and high resolutions. Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum texture map elements (texels) that can be processed per second. This figure is calculated by multiplying the total number of texture units of the card by the core speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the graphics card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels processed per second. Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum amount of pixels the video card could possibly record to the local memory per second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is calculated by multiplying the number of Render Output Units by the the core speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for filling the screen with pixels (the image). The actual pixel fill rate is also dependant on many other factors, most notably the memory bandwidth - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.

It's just the first HBM implementation, so it's kinda experimental, wait for next one, in 2016, they will get rid of some limitations, like memory speed or 4GB maximum capacity, also will be on 20/16 nm process, just imagine that dual gpu version, with over 1 million mb/sec bandwidth, and lower TDP... Also, like you said, more ROP's would be more than welcomed. I hope they will learn from their past mistakes, and deliver best performance at good prices, and optimize their drivers.
The Fury X obtained disappointing benchmark results, other than what we expected, somewhere between 980 and 980 Ti. Keep in mind that there were made under DX11, we don't know what DX12 will bring. Also, I understand that they will remove the voltage and overclock limit, and with better optimized drivers, the results could change.
After the last driver update. The fury x is beating the 980ti by a 4% across the board. And that's even without the crimson drivers.
