I've noticed this trend and I don't like it. For example, the Fury reviews don't even include R9-280X or if we go further back HD7970. I don't need several of them, just 1 card from the old-old generation. If you're upgrading here and ther, it's good to know what are the performance jumps between generations. I know Fury is faster than R9-390X, but looking at the review, I have no reference point to relate it to my card. If there was at least R9-280X which is basicaly what I have (a rebranded HD7970) I'd have a better feel for what I'm expecting.
I know it would bring extra work, but I think many would greatly appreciate "reference points" with older cards so you instantly know the performance increases between generations and if its worth investing now or you're gonan wait some more...
