At least they're giving prices. lol

Prepare for the price gouging!! (Not aimed at AMD - aimed at e-tailers).

I'll not lie - frankly - on spec, I kinda want one but i need to know the grubby details like PCB construction, voltages etc.

I'm waiting for the day it releases and then people suddenly find out its voltage locked like Titan and 780. I'll piss myself.

COMING SOON"finalPrice":"729.99"

interesting.. :laugh:

W1zzard · Oct 3, 2013

yup, looks like someone forgot to clean up the html

look at the yellow area below coming soon, that's where that element with the price is, but it has no displayed content. The $729.99 is so that scripting code can easily access the price

So that's it and it was obvious from the beginning guys:
The 290 will be 599$ and the 290X will be 699$. Quite expensive if you ask me...

I wonder what's the actual performance gap between those 2.

Nah, this is usually the e-tailer jacking up price on new products as usual.

is that even legal? :confused:

RCoon · Oct 3, 2013

Looks like it will be £550 inc VAT in the UK then, toe to toe with the 780's

44 is the compute unit count.

64 compute units? Then it's wrong. CU count has been public since GPU'14 presentation.

$730 Ex sales tax = £450 plus 20% VAT = £540 plus being british fee = £550
