waiting for its pricing ~~

sold all bro, need cash during downtime hehe..anyway this time maybe either r9-280x toxic or yes as you suggest maybe r290 if the price around 770 should be good.

Lets do some benchmark later bro..hehe cant wait especially the new Hawaii r-290

sure.
btw, any benchmark that is not bound to cpu and solely for gpu? my cpu is kinda dragging my gpu

What does 770 price point means?

hmm ya I didnt play around with OC for quite some time already till I lost touch with those synthetic benchies but the best I can guess is you can try AvP benchmark and maybe Far Cry 2 benchmark?

Cant be sure though because I only do benchmarks on own PC and no comparison made, so no idea which benchmark is solely bound to GPU since most of them requires raw cpu power as well. can check with owikh he might know.

gtx770. price point means the product price will be around there. hence, its an equal competitor(almost).

@shepard
will do.

amazon already can order his r9 290x at usd719
http://www.amazon.com/HIS-Boost-2xDLDVI-D-...ds=hyis+r9+290x
if here maybe around rm2359 to 2599

so.. likely wont get this one... let c how much the r9 290...

how about R9-290?

I see, btw how's that overclock affecting your electric bills?

since my electric bills is on sharing basis. its the same for me. the benefit of not living with family.
n i dun think my rig is that power hog as well.

i will get 290x if the performance gain is around 20% vs 780 at the same price range

Crysis 3

R9-290X first batch only 20pcs. *sigh*

I predict... sky high price gorging man...

Something to read about Mantle.

The four core principles of AMD’s Mantle

Quite a lot of retailers are selling their custom built rigs , price shown cheapest is $1999 , of course for the whole rig.

If maybe anyone who can't wait and with lots of time can slowly minus off some of the parts so that we would know the estimated pricing
