Check this the Radeon HD R9 290X Photo's
So during dinner last night I was able to get my hands on an engineering sample Radeon HD R9 290X. I can't fill in the blacks just yet I am afraid, but during the live session more will become clear. I did however photograph the heck out of it.
So this is the new Titan killer boys and girls. More info will be spread and posted in the hours to come, with embargo's on the real deep specs later in October. Have a peek.

No jokes my man; one million dollar speaker for ONE speaker? Yes, it is true!! Again, the $1,000,000 buys one speaker, so you'll need to shell out $2,000,000 for stereo, and at least five million for ...

Getting that feeling as well. If it is faster than Titan i just felt we would've known, i felt like they would've shown that in some way. 7000 firestrike isn't impressive.. not the least. Not releasing a price but pricing all the rebrands sucked as well. Seems like they're trying to keep the hype going which makes me feel like they're delaying the inevitable...which is releasing a card 7 months after the 780/Titan that doesn't beat it.
Hopefully i'm 100% wrong.
doesn't necessarily have to beat Titan as long as the price is right...
considering a titan is still £800 or $900+ which is fairly ludicrous in my opinion.

Hate to break it to you, but consumers dont have power over how much something costs.
If theres enough want, then companies will and can put whatever price tag they see fit.
Everything is going up in cost, even our toys.
Consumers have quite a bit of control over pricing. If consumers showed they were unwilling to pay the high prices, NVidia wouldn't have a choice but to back down on the price. The problem is, there are too many people willing to pay the increasing prices to get the fastest cards on the market.

AMD is trying to restructure themselves. The best way to do that is to keep as much information about products and company operations OUT of the public, as much as possible, until it's actually time to introduce the products to consumers. If you let the information out early, and run into problems before launch, it can do more damage to the company. If people don't know when the product is intended to launch, there's no concern over delays and issues can be handled properly.

Agree^ they don't need/want another bulldozer.

That would be bad, but from the looks of the direction they are going that won't happen.
