To put it simply absolutely awesome cards, the BF4 editions are mega limited and won't be available again, so get them whilst you still can. :)
 
So tempting but I want a non reference cooler, do you have rough estimate before we will be seeing these? i.e this year or next?

Hi there

Best case 4-6 weeks, most likely December if we are lucky, if not January/February for sure.

I know MSI have an R9 290X Lightning built and running, but of course they need to go to mass production, which can take time.

shame you couldn't do that tech lab 290x+mk26 for less - wouldn't have cancelled my pre-order if not for the bloody fan noise (my current windforce 670 is silent, along with everything else in my case)

... of course, now I want an MSI lightning :D
 
Nothing x-rated in that statement, nor does Gibbo strike me as someone who needs Humour Bypass surgery - so I'm sure it was read as it was intended, by most, as light banter. Apologies to any who didn't read it that way. :)
 
R9 290x BF4 edition

Good morning, Purchased the gigabyte version of this card and its all installed perfectly. My only issue is that the BF4 code does not work on the AMD rewards website. I have sent them a support ticket but they will be slow as always to respond. Was just wondering if any other users are having this issue and if they just simply have not been activated yet, which I would have thought wouldn't be the case since the website is set-up.

I wouldn't mind so much if it was a free game, but we paid the extra to have it with the card =).

Please help.

Mine isn't working either. I'm guessing they're not activated yet.
 
Is the asus version the best version of the card? I'm know they are all reference cards etc but why price differences?
Thanks
