AMD Radeon R-200 graphics cards naming unveiled

Shiny black metal/aluminium shroud would be better than cheap shiny plastic, especially when the card is expensive.

AMD needs to up their game in more than the performance stakes against Nvidia, better coolers/acoustics for one thing.

Yea but let's be realistic though...how many people be happy to have the price of the card increase by another £30 (like the cards with Titan cooler) just for the sake of a better looking/material vga cooler?

Look at the GTX770...the cheapest card on OcUK with a Titan cooler cost £360, that's £20-£40 more expensive than the partner cards with their own custom coolers.

The DSR is not well understood. Here's some info if you want to read up on it.

http://www.out-law.com/page-430

If you inform the seller of your intention to cancel the contract within 7 days (starting the day after you receive your goods), you are under the protection of the DSR.

If you do not, you are entirely at the mercy of the T&C's of the shop/supplier.

OcUK do not "extend the DSR to 14 days". This is not possible.

Yes we do.

OcUK offers a 14 day DSR period and our T&C's for that period are identical to DSR law, so whereas its not possible to extend the law, OcUK does give its customers a 14 Day money satisfaction guarantee following the same rules as DSR regulations.

Back to R290 X, its a single GPU, HD 7990 shall still retain performance crown and is currently out on price, it should be £600-£700, just OcUK is at the moment sub £500 as were crazy. :D

This is why when it comes to GPU's or big items I always buy from OCUK.

So you are basically agreeing with him that it is not possible to extend the DSR law past 7 days, but OCUK offer a 14 day period with the same T&C as the standard DSR law, making the whole thing a fairly moot point. :D



I do have to agree with you on your 9990 pricing it is certainly mental.
 
Ah the 9800 pro. First truly high end graphics card I bought (previously had bought mid-high range such as the ti4400), it was the all in wonder version too, brilliant card :)

did someone wrote that bf4 and watch dogs will be in bundle with new cars ? or in new amd game bundle ? :eek:

That slide was a fake, like most of the stuff of wccftech these days. :p

Watchdogs, as far as im aware is a Nvidia TWIMTBP title.

Battlefield 4 is a gaming evolved title though and i would expect it to ship for free with the new Hawaii card.

I think I remember 9800pro was the goldlocks of the range, not too expensive not too slow just perfect for the average gamer.
I was on ti4200 just before so sounds very similar, there is a perfect stepping stone to upgrading but its hard to do right & end up with a slightly bogus version with slow memory, etc
