Is anyone going to buy one of these nano cards ?

I just got a Fury tri'x so no but I'm extremely annoyed that I couldn't get a full Fiji chip on air and now this uses the full chip while being unable to utilize it fully.
It's probably going to be a case of there being a few on release and then no more stock after that anyway but that's not the point.
I'm interested but like all cards, it will come down to where it falls in terms of performance and price.
I am getting a little excited though, seems it's a full 4096 shader part with the capability to clock upto 1GHz? Surely that's going to put it very close to the Fury at least, depending on clock profiles? (It does still have to hit a 175W target)
http://wccftech.com/amd-radeon-r9-nano-specifications/ http://videocardz.com/57409/amd-radeon-r9-nano-confirmed-to-feature-4096-stream-cores didn't expect it to be running at nearly fury x speeds, but that will be the max boost speed as it says up to 1000mhz

Expecting the price to be roughly £400, so nope.

£750 then!!!!! I'm calling it now 
I bet AMD have been sacrificing all kinds of animals to the Gods!! They need a win so bad you can taste it

It's not slower. In fact the Gigabyte ITX is an OC card lol. So higher factory clocks.
I have no idea why AMD totally cannibalised their Fury release to such a degree. Maybe if they had the stock lying around it wouldn't be so bad, but this just seems insane.
I wonder if there will be any downsides to the Nano running throttled permanently.

If they had released 4096 on air then it would have shown that fiji draws too much current when trying to scale with clockspeeds above 1100mhz and 1.3 voltage. Hence why the 4096 was used with coolant.
For the Nano the sweet spot is to downclock and undervolt the core voltage. Just like they did with it's little brother Tonga m295x.
Nano has the 4096 core, its only cut down in core speed not cores
1000 core vs 1050core speed, yes i'd assume the nano wont sit at 1000 due to thermal/current draw but we will have to wait for reviews to see
Yeah I know Nano specs state a 4096 core I didn't say it would have disabled cu's,but it won't be using 1.25v like the 4096 fury-x does, and the voltage reg will probably be locked.
It will probably use 1.17v like the 3584.
We all agree it probably won't run anywhere near the 1ghz unless the temp holds around 85c.
You said you wished they made a 4096 full core on air cooling, I'm stating one of the reasons they didn't do that but instead disabled 4 cu's and went with 3584.
