If I actually used the power of my Titan X fully, I would consider getting one of these monsters when they release...
Well that and budget reasons are the only things stopping me. 😀

You know for a 100$ extra for this card u would think they would have at least used all the component space it looks like they cut down to make the board cheaper but it costs more.

Pretty much looks like a 980 PCB, or did I miss something major?

Well there's plenty of space for manufacturers to beef it up. But those usually go with a custom PCB of their own anyway so dunno. Either way, this "reference/Founder's edition" looks very clean. Can't wait to see how it OC's and runs in some actual reviews and if this cooler is truly that big of a deal compared to say a Twin Frozr from MSI.

Looks so cheap.. Also that same old cooler underneath.. Nothing wooow about it. More like overpriced bust :P
Common Amd hurry up with Vega and show them how its done by $/perf. Ratio.

No founders for me after all.

For ~390 - 450€?

Looks quite bare to me. And for the price premium, they could have at least put a metal shim around the GPU die, for protection.

They should call it Carpenter Edition. Pretty disappointed. Now waiting for 1070, but I doubt they will improve the PCB...

I never understood the "reference" hype. It is more expensive without any serious reason. The custom ones will come with better OC's and quality.

What do you mean "reference" hype?
There's like me and 2 more persons who prefer reference boards :P
It's less complicated than 980. Although 6 phases vs 5 on 980.
Including one for memory...I think

its so funny how most people still dont know the difference between the cooler on the reference model and the founders edition (vapor chamber), and even apply the higher price of the later, to above product, which is just the reference (non founders) edition running a stock (non vapor) cooler...
