I really feel like they waited so long on this card its lost some luster that it could have already had. I mean at this point all the other cards have been out for so long...
Well, this is just about the point they release these types of cards. Maxwell is fully mature, and has at best 6 months of sales left. AMD's bold move of being the leader with the 380X may be just the kick in the pants they need, because I imagine it will sell well.
I've been on the fence to replace the 760, because the 380 is not an improvement really (a little, but not enough), and the 390 is quite a bit more expensive. 380X will do just fine. I'm sure quite a few people have that thinking, and if so, it will sell well.
