I think the performance will be banana shaped when comparing the 390X to Maxwell cards -

Very fast and competitive @1080p

Nothing exciting @1440p and 1600p

Very close and competitive @2160p

@1440p and 1600p you are not really pushing the memory/bus very hard on the Maxwell cards, this is only my guess.
 
Ooooh interesting. That means he knows already.......:eek:;)

Have to say I've been Nvidia for years now, and have a Gsync monitor, but if the 390X comes up tip top toppety trumps, it's going to totally confuse my new gaming build I'm doing in a few months time.

No not really,

If he were to make a prediction it could turn out to be very wrong and cause bad publicity for AMD.

The permutations are endless as to how people would interpret any prediction Matt made, you only have to waste your time reading the 390X speculation thread to see what I mean.:D
 
4.

A lot of people could be wrong about the performance of the 390X due to lots of new variables.

The thing is with option 5 if I am wrong then AMD is history because it would entail the 390x being slower than the 980. If the 390x surpasses the titan X that doesn't stop 5 being wrong;)



Some of the things to consider is that it is still built on the same node size as the maxwell cards, but will have many ore transistors to do things like double precision. The 980 GPU is extremely efficient while the 290x cards were volcanoes so AMD will have to increase efficiency a lot.

Between 980and TitnX performance is the most realistic.
