Gibbo of OCUK says that the Fury X supply is quite dire with 1-2pc at a time while his warehouse has a few hundreds of Furies.

So, they have many Fiji Pro and much less Fiji XT. Perhaps the problem here is not HBM but TSMC's yield with 28 nm?
Also, remember they need the same dies for the upcoming R9 Nano launch.

Not surprising, not selling ...
It's odd that OCUK should have hundreds of Furies in stock when US retailers seem to have none: http://techreport.com/news/28651/radeon-r9-fury-and-r9-fury-x-availability-check-nope
Impossible. That only happens with Nvidia! /s
Isn't this Gibbo guy mostly know for being chronically inaccurate?

Based on link below he is head of his department (GPU?) at OCUK so should know their inventory.

I remember after the Fury X reviews he mentioned in a post they had 10 in inventory, but were getting 14 more in the following weeks.
It's probably only me who WANTS one R9 Fury X ! NOW !
I got one last week from newegg.

Air Furies are, let's say, salvage parts. R9 Nano won't be a salvage part with disabled units but the whole enabled die.
I guess they build up the necessary quantities for it.
What do you guess is a necessry quantity for a 175 watt card with unknown characteristics that only has it's size to set it apart a bit?

If by variety you mean Project Cars and idTech5 games, then yes, I guess.
Generally, the Fury X is way faster than the 980. It stands between the 980 Ti and the Titan X, sometimes beating the two.

May be AMD should have gone with more pixel throughput for Fiji this time. There's still leftover BW for that to burn in.
p.s.:
Looks like Fiji's frame-buffer compression is only a bit better than Kepler's:
Now I revise my suggestion -- AMD should have put a more aggressive colour compression instead.
