Lol.
What a bloody tease, like i said in the other thread they must have a better cooler if they want to add more on an already power hungry card, unless their 'contingency' also comes with a more efficient architecture.

Kap mod your cards to stop black screen benching. So much fun man. I am gonna go after so many records starting in a week or so now all my Lightnings are modded.
They could leave the cooling to the AIB partners.

DC2, Lightning, Matrix, Tri X etc etc coolers will be fine.
This should be interesting to see how the cards go with the better memory the lightnings have.
Good luck with the records.
I have noticed that multi GPU 290Xs seem to go really well on 3dmark vantage.
Meh, they all seem to opt for triple fan designs that keep the heat inside the case, would much prefer something along the lines of a blower design without the insane racket.

I think they are clustered in texture units, 176, so divide that by 2816 = 16
Not much use ^^^
If we look at it this way.
290P: 2560 + 10% = 2816 (290X)
290X + 10% = 3089.6
Or, probably the way it should be worked out, 2560 + 20% = 3072
They seem to work around 256
10 x 256 = 2560 (290P)
11 x 256 = 2816 (290X)
12 x 256 = 3072 (290?)

290XT
Those numbers make sense to me too, so clock for clock we would be looking at between 5 and 10% faster, about 7% on avrage

Didn't think it would be much of a boost, still it could be worthwhile if they come with new coolers and a cooler running temperature, seems a lot of people are put off by the heat they can generate.

In theory a 290X is 10% faster than a 290P, in practice as they don't overclock as well so it is about 7%. So yes about another 7% on top of a 290X.
ahhh i wanna know more....
you know what i have an idea, who's with me to start a kickstarter to fund an account for 8pack law suit, then he can break the NDA and satisfy my curiosity
one thing for sure they will change the reference cooler, they said that r9 290x error was the last.
then you have the HBM rumour, and btw this new hawai is TSMC or GlobalF ?

Typical Nvidia AMD, releasing the high-mid range part as the high end part and then releasing the proper high end part later... pfft bloody Nvidia AMD!
