I think AMD should stop the NDA at 3PM GMT today just as the Nvidia conference starts. Steel their thunder

Don't decent 4k scores mean enabling Supersampling will actually be viable for titles now?
As I understand it in very layman terns, it pretty much renders it at 4k internally and then downscales it to sort out jaggies?

Steel their thunder
It would take a lot of metal to steel their thunder. I hope they do, nvidia has ruled with an iron fist for too long.
Will you look at that sleeping dogs performance with SSAA. 512bit bus/compute ftw. Sleeping dogs 2 has just been announced as well.
Who said 4gb wasn't enough for 4k?
Those figures look way too dodgy
Also to get those fps the settings have to be turned down. There is no way a R9 290X is going to get 46.19 on sleeping dogs @4k when an overclocked HD 7970 struggles to get 60fps @1080p

We need proper reviews.

great cards, question is price.

I have to say I am very impressed with this 290X. Seeing those bench results in Crysis 3 is very good and is actually faster than my SLI Titans were at 5760x1080 (4K has over 2 million more pixels).
One 290X stomping on 2 Titans and at higher resolutions is very impressive indeed.
Edit:
In case people missed it, I am being sarcastic and want to see settings used.
Results look correct to me. Using HIGH SSAA not extreme Kaap. This is how my 7970 handled SSAA high at 1080p on old drivers. (13.1)

Has anyone seen any trustworthy benchies/reviews yet?

Since when did Metro last Light run better than pretty much most other games!!
looks dodge to me.

depends what the bottleneck is.
texture or fillrate etc..

Good point.
edit: The other games should scale the same floppers, the numbers look off.

If they used extreme for all those games the R9 290X would not run at all on some of them.
To me it still looks like a balancing act on a resolution no one is going to use to exploit the 4gb of the R9 290X to the max compared to the 3gb on the GTX 780. You could make the R9 290X look very bad by turning the settings up even more and comparing it to a 6gb Titan but what's the point of it.
We need some proper reviews fast.
