Unigine Valley was the only OpenGL test where the R9 Fury performed as it should relative to the NVIDIA hardware.
While the raw performance was on par, in looking at the power numbers, NVIDIA still wins this test on delivering much better performance-per-Watt with their higher-end Maxwell graphics cards.
Lastly are the thermal numbers for Furmark.
