Price in Malaysia?

Price is subjected to the brand. Wait for ASUS to announce.

If we do a direct conversion, the 380x should be priced around 900++ to 1100, but we know that won't happen because that's the price of 380 in local stores currently

Sigh.

Unfortunately so, and that doesn't apply to just AMD based products. Most other products you'll see it's far more than the converted rate.

FreeSync over HDMI - now isn't that something good?

RM1279 at dota tech, card is amazing 1440p is not an issue with this card, saved me some rm instead of buying agtx970 which also is a good 1440p performer. Wished AMD could run full 384bit bus for this baby. Overall im very2 happy with this card

Yeah just below 1300 too at Cycom. Guess it can be a good card while waiting for Arctic Islands.

ehh, GTX 970 is only RM 1399 cheapest.

I've used the HD 7970 / R9 280X / R9 285 and whatever else out there and if you're like me - you'll find that R9 380X is far from being amazing.

In fact I find it rather ridiculous that card of this performance is priced at RM 1.3k range these days when you can get an R9 280X used for RM 600 and still get similar performance.

Even 2 years ago this performance was already available at RM 1.1k range.

For AMD camp, a little over RM 1.5k and you can get an R9 390 8GB which I think is of better value.

Yameh? Was browsing lowyat price list last week and all the 970s I see have price range of 1700-1900.

Try Lelong.

Definitely many are found less than RM 1700.

Hmm but, 2 years ago ringgit was stronger and also no GST, wouldn't those play a role?

Ah thanks, yeah saw the 1399 one, reference cooler though.

And the 380x is RM1130 there

Correct but fact remains that the performance is nothing new. For AMD the thing I have about their system is that HD 7970 = R9 280X = R9 380X!!!

And mind you, HD 7970 was 2012!!! That's why you see many reviews, they carry the same sentiment. It's nothing new. Nothing to shout about.

If you can get R9 380X at around RM 1,100 range then I think it's pretty alright, especially when you bring price to performance ratio to comparison with others around.

Still need a product to fill the gap.

Thanks for being user of AMD GPU!!!

Let us know if you encounter any hiccups.

Final Words

When the Radeon R9 285 was released, that SKU was pretty much blocked and positioned in-between two rather similar AMD product with more memory, and did not make any sense. The 380 made way more sense in terms of price and performance, but we disliked the limited 2GB frame-buffer. The 380X as such the the final evolution of this mainstream to high-end positioned graphics card. With the 380X you get to use a proper 4 GB graphics memory and you'll have a fully enabled GPU with 2048 active shader processors. And such features combined makes a lof of sense. You will have a very good 1080P card running with more than decent enough performance in the WQHD (2560x1440) monitor domain. Overall for roughly 250/260 USD/EURO the Radeon R9 380X does offer good value for money. The factory tweaked and customized product will likely be a tenner more expensive though, but it remains very reasonable. The card as tested (factory tweaked and cooled) has a good design, it is factory overclocked a bit, nearly in-audible and looks really in any DiY PC build. The build quality seems to be pretty okay as well. So yeah man, for the money the 380X offer good value with most boxes properly ticked. As such it is definitely a recommended product.
