Anyone know when these cards will be available? We need competition!

(I mean, c'mon the 780 for +650€? The 7970 costs a bit more than 350 € and it's not twice as slow!)

Second half of 2013.

So basically no body knows



Please excuse my bad English.

Former gaming PC: i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Current gaming PC: R5-7600, 32GB RAM 6000MT/s (CL30) and a RX 9060XT 16GB

Steam / Live / NNID : jonxiquet    Add me if you want, but I'm a single player gamer.

Wow, those specs are looking pretty nice, especially with the 8970 having 6gb of RAM. The same TDP as the 7970 GE for much better performance is a definite win.

I like my 7970s, but it'd be real tempting to upgrade. The same TDP as the 7970 GE for much better performance is great

The 8970 and 8950 definately look very appealing both power and price wise. I can only wish AMD the best.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Not that surprising 20nm yields are still low and wafer costs are much higher.

Well MS could just realise that requiring Kinect is stupid and take that out of the bundle to drop the price by $100USD

That's even less likely than unbundling the U Pad, even though between that and currency drops they could sell a Wii U at $150 without it.
