AMD Radeon 390X WCE - Water-Cooled Edition
Yep and then there is the slide after the break, that surfaced on the web over the weekend, it confirms leaks about R9 390X 8GB HBM. Anyway check after the break to see what is mentioned in the slide, that's IF it isn't a fake of course.
The leaker (videocardz) claims this slide is a part of in-house presentation called ‘2015 Future of Radeon’ that will be shown next week to AIB partners (not to public).
AMD Radeon R9 390X WCE:
Next iteration of the highly successful GCN design
- Up to 4096 shader units
- Full DirectX 12_Tier 3 implementation
- Optimized for 4K gaming & beyond
- First ever GPU designed for VR immersion
- Special enthusiast water-cooled edition
- Up to 8GB of ultra-high bandwidth HBM video memory
- Hardware H.265 decoding and over 4x the previous H.264 encoding speed, enabling smooth live streaming
- Enhanced ZeroCore functionallity
Granted the screenshot does look like an AMD slide, the text however has typo's (functionality is misspelled) and weird wording like "DirectX 12_Tier 3 implementation" which is uncommon for AMD as everything is vetted and goes through a screening process.
Ah well .. here's that slide:

This has got to be the dumbest post I've read lately.
This thread is about the R9 390X, not the Titan X.
When the Titan X is released, the resale value of the GTX980 is going to drop because the market is going to get flooded by people selling their cards to buy the new Titans.
The R9 390X will have minimal impact on GTX980 resale value because fewer people will migrate from the 980 to the 390X, than to the Titan. The R9 390X would have to have double the performance of the 980 to have any real impact on resale value.
Value and Price aren't the same thing.
Price is what you pay to buy an item from a retailer.
Value, is what buyers determine the item to be worth.
This is true, but however value is determine on how well it can perform when comes to IT, only a hand full of hardcore fanboys would deem TitanX as a high value card as there are better and cheaper GPU on the market.
And naturally people would go for cheaper, better, faster processors unless performance is unbeatable by a huge margin for current time.

Why late, because nvidia will release overpriced TitanX now?
Btw there are no games that actually need that kind of power yet, wait for Q4 2015+..
Imho its just that rush & buy feeling nothing else.. I personally will start thinking of new gpu when I actually need it and see that Im lagging a lot in all games.. Atm its a breeze in anything @ 1080p, also plan to stay @ 1080p for a while.

If you're looking at new parts, sure. People are looking for the best price when buying used though. Whoever is willing to sell for the lowest price, will sell fastest. The higher the price, the longer it's going to stay on the market.

Even the GTX970 is overkill for 1080 right now for most games.
Some people will rush to buy. Some will wait a few weeks until they can manage to sell their current cards. Most of the people that will buy the Titan, are the kind that simply have to have "the best" regardless of the price. Those are the kind of people these cards are targeted at anyway.... The ones that are dumb enough to pay such an insane price. Personally, I buy mid-range because it represents the best price/performance but some people just simply have to have the absolute best available regardless of cost.

If the 390X will indeed come in an 8GB HBM version and it has a reasonable price/performance ratio, it looks like it's going be my next video card upgrade.

Well my factory OC'ed is @ 970gtx speeds sometimes slightly faster, so yeah I agree.

what does 4k and beyond mean....8k? come on really? no games on the market use it,maybe GTA5 (bull****) the only need for this card would be running 3 monitors, that narrows it down to around 5% of the gaming community while (if it's true it's impressive) like the GTX980 i see no reason to pay 900$ aud when it won't give 900$ performance increase,I'll wait

If price is right and 390x is faster then titan x sure the diehard fans few still go for titan.
But believe me if AMD pulls this off many will go for 390x, Nvidia or not.

This+1
The only thing I want is for AMD to release it before Witcher 3 comes out.
I am not a patient man,and if I can't run Witcher 3 the way I want to, I might go for the Titan x.I know, I'm weak

Well, I'm guilt free with my gtx680, knowing that this year's gpu upgrade will be worthy one with a speed jump that justifies a purchase.
Poor fanboys are the biggest losers.

Duh! Because nobody wants to buy it.

??? Your logic fails you...
Titan X won't drop the price of 980 for one second. That would be an idiotic move from Nvidias standpoint.
No one would buy the Titan X if they did that. The card that will drop the price of the 980 will be the 390x. Still won't drop much if at all I bet.
980ti is the only thing that will drop the price of 980 for sure. IMO anyway.
