Fatboy spotted - XFX Radeon RX 590
Just before the weekend, the XFX Radeon RX 590 Fatboy surfaced onto the web. The XFX card looks rather similar to the RX 580 GTS as it has the very same cooler.
Specs wise things are different though, the Fatboy OC+ would see a 1600 MHz boost clock, which is a good 200 MHz over XFX's highest clocked RX 580. Would such a Turbo actually stick and not throttle down?
The card could be power hungry, as it has an 8+6-pin power connector. Interesting, it has five display connectors: DVI-I, HDMI and three DisplayPorts.

Here's a picture of the Fatboy mini-nuke launcher in Fallout 4.
pretty sure that is the Fatman launcher. Maybe fallout 76 has something new?

You know you're right, I was mixing the Fatboy and Fatman up.... The Fatboy is below (from the older games). I know which one I like the look of better, lol.

Even if you can "flash" it, they won't be the same card, since they are not fabbed on the same technology.
Wonder how long it will be before we can flash our rx580,s to rx 590,s ....
