I still think BF4 edition will be 520 pounds. And with those benchmark scores i will pay that for it.

How much could i get for my 7950 with EK waterblock on ?? :D
 
If this does indeed beat the Titan AMD have really missed a trick by not calling it something Greek myth related like perseus.

Perhaps it is too close to call and they can't risk giving it that name :p

At the current rate it will be completely academic if it beats Titan or not by the time the 290 cards are released heh.
 
What I find is if a GPU wins most/all the synthetic benchmarks, it will win in most of the games as well.

Synthetic benches are not games but they do test things related to games.

We need a proper, reliable review fast.

It was actually Zeus who killed the Titans and imprisoned his Father in Tarturus (who was also a Titan). All Perseus did was chop that birds head off who had dreadlocks and minced about for a bit.

Sorry but I love Greek mythology :D

I think AMD should call the card "The Trojan" as nobody knows what's inside.:D
 
LOL at the BBQ reference card and the Mantle + GPU pictures!

What do you pay for ordering the card equivalent from the US and paying customs and any tax?

This usually tends to work out the same as the UK RRP.

Surely OCUK must know the price on the card. Isn't OCUK working with Caseking.de?
They currently have pre-built machines for sale with the R9-290X in it, with a price tag on it. In theory u could remove the price of the other componenets, and have a rough estimate?

Of course we do and we also agreed to an NDA, everyone will be :)
