Thank god ! I'm using the latest in Display port cables on monitors with no old school DVI. I don't intend to ever use DVI or HDMI again :p

Display port ftw lol.

I already have one radiator in my case, I don't really want another.

Get a better case, if you afford £450+ for a GPU, you can afford a decent case that can accommodate 2 x AIO's :p

+1

I just don't like the look. If it's going to be water cooled it needs to be in a custom loop.

We can hope for a normal version!

This will likely be for reference only, so AMD don't get labelled with poor reference cooling again (After 290X)

The vendors will offer their own cooling as well. Typical longer cards with dual / triple fans. I would prefer the smaller card with built in AIO tbh, cool and quiet. Will need another MITX case though as my current one can only fit 1 Rad :p

Corsair 650d.. I guess there's room.

Get an air cooled, watercoolers the reference.

MSi make some tasty stuff!
 
Good job im not buying then, as id have get a new screen as well.

You can buy an adapter to make it work.


And assuming that render is legit seems they've put the hdmi port at the bottom with 3 display ports in a row, something ryan at pcper was irritated with nvidia putting the hdmi in the middle of the dp connections. :p

it deffo looks exciting though, because water cooling should = quiet.

so that's a 1st strike to AMD, because that's the TXs biggest fault.......... there's loads of room in the Phanteks for that because it'll probably be a single 120 or 140mm rad
 
photo looks legit...... it's about 6'' long with the rest cut off and a radiator over the top, very odd photo :confused:

Just a bit of an odd looking render deliberately blacked out to obscure one end of the card.

ed: actually according to the article thats the full card they're saying its half the length of a 295x2..

The graphics card itself is actually quite small, nearly half the length of the R9 295X2. Which is to be expected since AMD promised compact form factors for its upcoming HBM powered flagship at the Financial Analyst Day


I very much doubt thats the full thing in that pic.

Agreed, a quieter card with similar performance to the TX and a lower price would be spot on.

GPU core / and HBM memory must all be cooled by the block. This could be really nice. Must see benchmarks !
 
Wonder if the actual AIO is an AIO connected to a full board block? If what that site is saying is to be believed (and imo its prob bs) then thats the full card, no fan visible so it would have to be a waterblock covering the entire board under the shroud.

Yeah good point mate, could be a custom block, not standard AIO one.

The GPU core / HBM must all be cooled. the PCB layout must be pretty different from what we have now. Will these have normal sort of VRM? If it's all under water that would be ideal.

Well the 295x2 is 307mm, nearly half the length could put it as small as the 960 mini at 172mm, which is definitely what I think we would all consider small.
