Specifications Radeon RX 590 leak - roughly 10% more perf at a price of $279
We've talked quite a few times about the pending Radeon RX 590 already, clocks and AIB product photos have surfaced. Rhe 12nm refresh Polaris GPU now got leaked with will specs.
Website Videocardz had a peek and then leaked official slides from AMD, and these contain detailed information about performance and specifications. The card would perform roughly 10% better compared to a reference RX 580 and is listed at 7.1 TFLOPS (FP32). An RX 580 pushes 6.2 TFLOPS (at reference clocks).
The specs an increase at the boost clock speed towards a reference 1545 MHz where that was 1342 MHz of the RX 580. Some tests have been performed with an i7 7700K, 16 GB DDR4 memory with a speed of 3000 MHz and driver version 18.40 and that resulted into a 3DMark Fire Strike score of 16647 points, where the RX 580 scores 14918 points.
The card would be listed at $279 (USD), that's quite a bit more expensive than an RX 580, however, it would be bundled with three games: Devil May Cry 5, The Division 2 and Resident Evil 2.

Not everyone overclocks.
You're getting around 1070 performance, possibly similar efficiency and 3 AAA games at a lower price. In a few months, they'll drop it to 250 and lose the games. These will then settle into the mainstream until the 2060 or what ever is released at 300-350.
They will sell, like the 480 and the 580 before them.

you kiddin hilbert?
gaming performance compared to 580
shadow of the tomb rider: 19%
monster hunter world: 23.5%
COD:BO: 23.6%
PUBG: 22%
fortnite: 26%
overwatch: 23%+
you call this 10%?
now, pair this with freesync monitor which you can find for as low as 100$ and you get very good budget gaming setup.
I dont know why people whine.

I think for that price point is a real fine card.
The gtx1060 is quite bit more expensive and perform similar ( i bet they have advantages in specific games and not all ) and yes with free sync you made a point.
Now this new story of 1060 with gp104 inside is the other side of the medal

Should we expect 590's reviews ?

So, with 590 you pay for games, plus, factory overclock.
Everything is not needed at all. You can save yourself 50$ at least or even more by purchasing 580.
In my country 580 starts at 210$(4gb) and 230$(8gb). I cannot see budget users/gamers buying this at all. AMD is making a huge mistake here.
