How many of the upcoming 10 sapphires are remaining? Would have liked it for tomorrow but guess I can wait a week.

Any news on the MSI ram yet? If its hynix then I'll go for that as it'll allow me to go watercooloing without worrying and has a year extra warranty vs the sapphire.

about 8, be quick!

well I did reply(well sent to the address mentioned in the recieved email)to the email with my choices with the sapphire as my first choice, chose the MSI as my backup and the non-bf4 sapphire/MSI as the back to the backup. Will the non bf4 editions come with the gold ticket fr those that choose it today?
Also when will I get an email confirming my choice and phone to take the payment? If I'm not available to answer the phone does that mean I loose my preorder?

No.
Only BF4 Editions and it ends today.

Of course AMD might make it official, but I don't have a crystal ball.

Yes you need to make yourself available.

Well I need someone to ring me in the next hour or so as I have to head out for my work between 1pm - 1.30pm and wouldn't be able to answer the phone after that, not allowed a phone in the warehouse where I work.

I've allocated one to myself, so when they arrive I shall still have a play. :)

We like to be the best and no one else in the world has given customers the information I have provided on these new cards. :D

Hi there

It seems down to BIOS, flash the Asus BIOS and they all seem to clock to similar level on stock cooler - 1200-1250MHz core and 6400-6800MHz RAM.



**UPDATE**

Hynix and Elpida are both just as good as each other.

I took my Elpida card which could only do 5700MHz, flashed the Asus BIOS to it, pumped up the voltage and now the Elpida card is matching with 6600MHz. :)

So there you go, Elpida, Hynix, it don't matter. What matters is voltage control. ;)

Asus BIOS FTW. :D

By the way this is an R290 I've flashed with R290X BIOS, works a tread, but shaders not unlocked, but can now hit 1220 core and 6600 RAM on the regular R290 as well. At these speeds this also obliverates Titan. Incredible value!
