Alleged MSI Radeon 300 Series Spec Leak Onto the WWW
On Reddit a user posted a link towards imgur, displaying all the specs from the Radeon 300 Series lineup (excluding Fiji) from MSI.
When you check reddit you'll notice that the information posted on imguru was found & leaked in Brazil by a website called tecmundo, the slides cover the full specs from the MSI R7 370 up-to the R9 390X. All earlier leaked information on the respin products including changed codenames are correct, listed are:
- R7 370 2GD5T OC
- R7 370 GAMING 2G
- R9 380 2GD5T OC
- R9 380 GAMING 2G
- R9 380 GAMING 4G
- R9 390X GAMING 8G
Meanwhile on YouTube; people doing a hands-on unpacking the Radeon R9 390X Graphics cards (Respin R9 290X with 8GB), which they have been able to purchase in stores.
BTW - funniest thing ever is that he calls a backplate a heatsink and then "The Crossfire board can't be Crossfired" as he can't find a Crossfire connector".

What did they increase the clocks a bit on the core and raised the vram speed of a 290x like nvidia did with the 680 rebrand ie gtx 770?

That's what I read, it's the 290X core with slightly increased clocks and an extra 4GB vRAM

True, so they did even less, just bumped up the clocks and called it a 390X?

Only question is the pricing. Looking alright if its little more than 970.
For 350-400€ i will consider one myself.

Am I reading it right or is it saying 208W power draw?
Can't be total right?
Yeah that is what it says but I don't know if it is the same thing as TDP if it is 280 sound more believable.

Why not? Should round up to 210.

If the TDP is accurate its clearly not a rebrand.

That actually sounds like a pretty good card now.
With the dramatic (for AMD) drop in heat output despite a bump in clocks, it should be very interesting to see how this thing OCs ^_^
Edit : Really is quite a good drop in heat considering the doubling of hot GDDR5 onboard too.

"Hawaii is confirmed to be codenamed Grenada. Don’t be fooled by the power consumption mentioned in the slide, as MSI has the same consumption listed for 290X. MSI R9 390X GAMING 8GB has 8GB GDDR5 memory. Card is factory-overclocked to 1100 MHz / 6100 MHz. This is 50/100 MHz boost compared to reference model."

^ youre probably right but i hope for amd's sake that they manage these minor speed bumps while also reducing power they would be much more desirable.
