They are not designed to be seen inside. That's why they have no window.. What kills it the most is the stock PSU. The wiring looks awful.
Cooling is exceptional, though, as is access to the back to plug things in etc.

Limited edition? The way miners are getting on they'll all fall under that bracket soon enough
Why do you think the suggested Retail price is the same as a 1080Ti, and draws over 375W?
All to keep those pesky miners away.

Wow that one actually looks worse than mine when I got it ! looks like it has been thrown together. Cooler is different too, looks about twice as thick.
Price is down to amd doing the premium brand thing, and wattage is down to them lagging behind nvidia in that aspect.
What the hell is that?! Logic?! get away with that. Shoo!

Looks like 3 wires on top of the plug on the right not 4.
Would need to be to keep a thread ripper cpu cool, that seems to be areal limitation of that case, 120-140mm rads seems to be all it can take so they have to make the rad chunkier to be able to accommodate other cpu's
Aye, but the top card shows 8+6 pin connectors. The bottom has 8+8 plugged in, even if the wires are 8+6.
Pull a Paul Daniels?
and with a PSU being most efficient at around 50% load it seems fair if your system pulls on average 400-500watts then getting a big PSU like a 850 - 1000watt PSU makes sense now
The only way for this to be a great launch now would be for it to be on par with a 1080ti for under £500, with Volta so close that is the real target now.
Not surprised about there being no live stream as there have been no details about it. Crazy though. Really hope they do not mess this launch up, which is looking more likely by the minute 
So close? First Volta won't hit until Q1 earliest. Still over half a year away. Another GPU launch is always around the corner. To me close is when they have been actually announced and you only have to wait 2-3 months.

I haven't owned an AMD GPU since my 5870. I've been Nvidia ever since the 670 launched.

When Vega was about half a year off people were complaining it's taking too long, when Volta is half a year off or so, it's really close!
