That's a really decent overclock you've got there on your sample, pretty jealous!
Definitely shows off the cooling capability of the card, at 1150MHz and +50mV on mine for example, I start hitting 75ºC so it ends up being pointless for me pushing it further.
Memory too, mine craps out at 1515MHz, and your sample gets 1600MHz!!! Give me your card!

There is not 960ti so there is no 380X as well. Idk, but TongaXT exist in mobile/laptops so its possible.
Did the 380X turn out to be a false rumour? We are already well into the second half of October, yet there's nothing to be found other than the initial hearsay from more than a month ago.

Since it is rumored to be 2048shader 256bit card, it exists. It is R9-M295X and it has feature level DX 12_0 too, so it is new one.
Question is if AMD feels like bringing it to desktop. Because they did not move it to R9-M3xx line yet. I think next mobile and desktop graphics will be all on 14/16nm as 28nm will not be disruptive enough.

I noticed in the review you're using Afterburner 4.2.0 b...I can't find it anywhere...anyway, my R9 380 4GB card refuses to allow me to adjust core voltage under AB 4.1.1. Any info, HH? Thanks!
