I do wounder what's up with not releasing the core clock? Should these GPUs not already be finalised by now?

What i think might be going on here, i think Vendors and AMD think it can be tuned more and they don't yet know by how much, might also be the reason for the delay.

You remember they fixed the PCIe thing and suddenly found a slight bump in performance and efficiency in doing that?

well..if you cant release the clock speed then how can the card be ready for production??
it makes zero sense.

Apparently they have only just started to produce the AIB cards, literally days ago, i think they went back to tuning it more.
 
cant see it..lets face it if you were making a card and it was ready for shipping out to the shops you would know the clock speeds..unless the clock speeds are poo of course :)
 
I'd guess they dont want a repeat of the ASUS STRIX 1080 OC problem so will take a sample of what a few run at easy and use that, or see what other vendors come up with

Gibbo also posted a few pages back that the early versions of the Nitro (now called Nitro+ OC on OCUK) have managed to get higher stable clocks than newer ones (called simply Nitro+).

So the £10 difference is for 1342MHz clock vs 1306Mhz. 27p per MHz
