I can't wait any longer on this R9 270. I'm going to swipe back the 980 from the other PC and use that until new cards arrive. trust me 270 @ 1440P is not a nice experience.. Whereas 270 @ 1080P isn't that bad.. makes no sense using a 270 @ 1440P when the 980 is just sitting there lol..

Having to go back to the dark side is not good though.. Have that sense of dirty shame that comes with it :p

Should have kept a 290 spare.

I'm going to sell all the cards we have here eventually including this 980. I want some new decent proper high end stuff !!

This will do much better than the 270 during the interim though :D

Have used my tried and tested ghetto modding, the 980 Idles with 2 x screens at 28c and load temp is 50c, awesome stuff for a mini ITX.

This is huge? 8GB confirmed (16Gb=2GB per stack * 4 stacks = 8GB):

Just goes to show how slides get outdated and you can't trust them after a certain amount of time.

Also Fudo is running a paid FUD piece about Fiji being dual GPU, his "proof" is a mention of multi GPU on a Liquid VR slide... I won't waste your time linking it.

You think the 390X has 8GB HBM2? That will be epic if true, 8GB+ is the sweet spot for new cards imho. If I was buying later on this year would much rather have 390X 8GB over the 6GB 980 Ti rumoured.

FUDO is indeed claiming that the 8GB Fiji card is 2x4GB dual GPU. Here's the link below for anyone interested. (I hope this isn't right).

http://www.fudzilla.com/news/graphics/37373-amd-fiji-has-two-gpus

So, when Fudzilla wrote that Fiji is going to ship with 8GB of RAM, we didn’t actually think that we were talking about two separate GPUs, on separate interposers, with each GPU using 4GB of HBM1 memory. This is how AMD got to 8GB, or should we say two times 4GB for this card. It makes much more sense now, and of course we would not be surprised to see Fiji for notebooks and lower-end desktop products in a single GPU configuration.

8GB would be perfect, enough for all current stuff and some wiggle room for future ones.

I hope AMD destroy the Titan X and go back to the good old days of competition. I'll gladly switch back to AMD if the performance is there.

i think i'll return it to stock and sell it either straight away or when the 390X comes out......... i may as well do it this afternoon and see if i can get used to it making a noise again.

i always game with the case side off and right now it looks like an Electrical generator in there, i dont think Arctic could've made an uglier looking heatsink if they tried, it's ok underneath, it's the Backplate that looks pants.

You crazy bro :p

Stop messing with the thing and enjoy it until something better comes along, then get it on MM and move on.
