It was called Not From Concentrate and I think it will be an orange juice closed loop cooler.
Having just seen the Dr who Christmas special, small oranges do make an appearance. (don't worry this really isn't a spoiler if you haven't seen it yet.)

Ok as an attempt to get the thread back on track. (new cards from AMD)
Wasn't there something teased as coming in 2014 from sapphire/AMD ?
or am I remembering wrong ?
Seeing as there is only one day of the year left.
.
OT - I'm hoping that whatever AMD bring out, they don't release a terrible cooler with it. It seemed to me it hurt them in the reviews way more than it should have since, at a guess, most people buy cards with better 3rd party coolers anyway. And the fact the cards would throttle due to hitting their thermal wall.
yes AMD have to improve their product quite a lot, lets hope it doesn't look like the 295X2 with its silly water cooler... or the way too large 290X, but my guess is that after the brilliant 970 that AMD has learnt its lesson.
more importantly AMDs corporate image is wrong, their target consumer is a young immature gamer, they need to tone everything down become more minimalistic, they are also produce a very dodgy product.............i.e the 7990 isn't just poorly cooled it's a blindingly obvious design fault, it's so ****** bad that it scares you off their other cards, it has a strong knock on effect, AMD looks cheap and nasty.............very Chinese
AMD reminds me of that truck the A-Team drove, black with a red stripe, it's noisy, runs way too hot, constantly breaks down and looking so 1980s... it's all fart fart hot air
Why does it always have to be like this, Andy...
Because I'm critical.
When I hand over hundreds of pounds for a slab of plastic and silicon I expect it to meet expectations. Expectations whipped up by the company selling it.
When it doesn't? I like to complain.
Any decent company will take their critics on the chin and strive to make things better. If they don't? look at what happens to companies who don't listen /looks at OCZ and Zalman.
I said that I would never buy another AMD GPU until they sorted out their drivers. So I never said never ! instead of listening to my critique people just want to argue. Hint - that won't get me buying AMD GPUs again.
If I had a penny for every time some one wrongly said that AMD drivers were now good and fixed I would be a rich man. At last attempt (about a month ago) I was still having issues with them.
It's fair to say that I spend pretty much all of my disposable income on computer hardware. I don't really do anything else, so I tend to buy a lot of computer hardware.
AMD should listen to people like me and try to appease my concerns, not argue the toss with me and try and debate things. That's not how good business works.
All that's happened is that I am now even more dead set against using AMD graphics cards.

Because of an argument , if that, on a internet forum?
I agree you shouldn't settle and put up with faults but you also have to appreciate that others will not have had so many or even any issues running AMD GPU's. With so many use scenario's and combinations there are bound to be some that cause the odd problem for someone. At least one of yours looks to have been using the wrong driver cleaner tool and another the use of unsupported hardware on an Apple OS.

Both of witch = user error but Andy would never agree to that. So it must be AMDs fault.
Both of which you are blaming me, both of which happened.
Put it this way, it never happened when installing an Nvidia driver. If AMD recommend you run their cleanup tool before installing Mantle drivers and it wipes out the entire system that's their fault.
Your arguing with me will not make me buy AMD. The only way that will happen is if they actually listen and stop sticking fingers in ears and arguing.
What do you think you can do here? argue me around and make me buy another AMD GPU? lol, good luck with that.
Another thread bites the dust....
Many pages of off topic drivel.
Why speak off drivers in a 390x/380x rumors thread?
And please dont end the year 2014 with Amd vs Nvida flame war.

I agree you shouldn't settle and put up with faults but you also have to appreciate that others will not have had so many or even any issues running AMD GPU's. So your absolute statements just do not match their experiences. With so many use scenario's and combinations there are bound to be some that cause the odd problem for someone. At least one of yours looks to have been using the wrong driver cleaner tool and another the use of unsupported hardware on an Apple OS.
