It's funny that people generally wait for the aib cards as the reference is crap, but this time around quite a few would want the reference, me included.

Very true. I normally give my money for quiet and cooling over looks but really do like the ref cooler.

Definitely. It's sleek, it's quiet and it cools well. The lower cost is also nice. Maybe that's why they don't keep making them - it's too good.

XFX do release some nice GPUs

The high clocks look really impressive but we've seen it all before - people already hit 3000mhz on Turing cards last year. The performance gained is more important anyway and the high clocks don't translate into that much more performance for whatever reason - comparing a 6800xt at 2.2ghz and one at 2.8ghz, the latter is just 10% faster in games despite having 25% higher clocks

Yeah 10% isn't much unless you are comparing one GPU against another......then 10% is amazing

Don’t blame you it’s the best reference card ever. Check the AMD store periodically for more stock.

Are you feeling alright? 3Ghz on Turing? Evidence that is not LN2? I thought not. Why are you so hellbent on downplaying anything AMD has achieved? There is fanboism but you are way past that mate. It's mentally unhealthy so give it a rest.
 
Derbauer yesterday was trying to get past the 2.8ghz limit on the 6800xt but could not, he declared it's impossible - AMD has gone a good job to gateway the 6900xt.

The 6900xt on the other hand has a higher power limit and 200mhz extra on the clock speed cap, so with LN2 you can take the 6900xt to 3.0ghz
