Its mid rage at best, and isn't leaps and bounds faster than GCN cards. overclocking seems to offer very little to.

eteknix review said exactly the same about the cooler (and compared it to NV`s FE coolers), wait till the custom cards come out very soon for higher sustained boosting and a lot quieter. Even hinted at RTX 2080 beating performance.

Overclocking is broken. Most of the reviews are saying this. It's also using a blower cooler and throttling in those that did. A decent cooler and better drivers should in theory fix this.

Where are you seeing that?
It beats the 2070, Seen it beat the 2080 in BF5 too. With driver optimization and dev using the arch these could be beasts.
Great alternative to green goblin cards at a decent price.
3700X / 3900X are amazing and these cards actually are decent. AMD on fire atm xD

Who would a thunk it, a crap AMD cooler ruining an otherwise good card.

Lol, the custom cards will no doubt be lil beasts. These aren't bad at all for the money.
Look forward to seeing AMD bigger cards and the 2080 Ti Super. Maybe they can tempt me back to high end GPU..
Well, if you are ignoring Techpowerup's figures because they are Nvidia biased, surely you have ignore Adored's figures because he is AMD biased?
Most of the reviews have temps higher than 80 degrees.

Exactly, you always have to wait with AMD, then you can get really good cards with custom coolers, really good driver support and issues solved just don't buy on launch. In 6 months these cards will be really good value.
The only problem is that the custom cards will be more expensive.
You will have to wait until next year for the AMD high end card. And, the 2080Ti super is already out, it's called the Titan.

To quote OC3D review:
Welcome to 2019 - AMD are back (which is only a good thing for the consumer after years of price gouging).

Which is identicle to Nvidia - Founders Edition cards, overpriced with new drivers every 10 minutes to `solve` a broken feature or fix hardware problems like fans turning off. Nv drivers under windows 10 have been utterly horrific.

Why buy now? in 6 months PC will have the Red Devil version of it out with a proper cooler on it etc for a competitive price. Don't buy the mug cards now.

Bit naughty just posting the Pro's Boom don't ya think? For clarity the Con's;
- Noisy in gaming
- Overclocking is complicated
- Driver bugs
- High temperatures
- No support for ray-tracing acceleration
- No idle fan stop
- High multi-monitor power draw
- CrossFire no longer supported
Back with a card that has performance that you could have had for a similarish price 10 months ago with less features! yay!

Which also makes the entire RTX range redundant then as only 1 is faster than a GTX 1080Ti for 200% more money
