AMD to release Dual 'Fiji' GPU Graphics Card sooner than expected

Dual 'Fiji' GPU R9 Fury X2 Graphics Card

A few days back shipping information listing 'Fiji Gemini' being shipped from AMD's headquarters in Canada. 'Gemini' is the code name that has been used in AMD's previous Dual-GPU Radeon R9 295X graphics card. Although only speculation, but the new graphics card is likely to be called the Radeon R9 Fury X2.
It is certain that AMD will include 2 x 'Fiji' GPU's that are currently used in the R9 Fury, R9 Fury X and R9 Fury Nano graphics card. The shipping information also states that the dual 'Fiji' card will include a Cooler Master heat sink, and most certainly come with an all-in-one water cooling solution to keep temperatures down.

Shipping information for the Radeon R9 Fury X2

The dual 'Fiji' graphics card will feature a whopping 8192 Stream Processors with 128 GCN Compute units, 128 Render Output Units, 512 Texture Mapping Units, and 8GB of HBM (High-Bandwidth-Memory) with 4GB per GPU chip. The memory bandwidth and frequency are expected to remain the same speed as the R9 Fury X.

The sudden move by AMD to launch the R9 Fury X2 sooner could be a response to Nvidia's plans to release it's dual 'Maxwell' graphics card.
