Also, this coincides with the previous reports (rumors?) that the 380 cards would be more than a match for GM204.
They were, their leak was a Tomb Raider benchmark that showed the stock 780Ti had a slight advantage over the GTX 980 although I believe after patches the difference was reversed.

Well that's a bit different from a huge list of games being averaged out for a product that's still several months out.

I guess I wont be ridiculous to ask for GTX680/7970 performance on a $100-$150 range in next gen?

This would be extremely impressive if it actually is the 380X. Mildly disappointing if it is the 390X.

Impressive from a power efficiency standpoint beating out the 980.

Can't be 390X unless 490X comes after it because of the power consumption. If this is true its looking good for AMD. If anything this is just to make people hold up on buying new GPUs.

Why would a high end 390x barely match a mid range maxwell card (980)? The 390x will compete to the 1080 and not the 980.

If this is true and come at 300/325$ I will be really really happy.

you are reading the benches wrong. this card is 15%-20% faster then a single 980... you're looking at the SLi numbers.

If this comes with more then 4gb of vram and that much better power consumption I'd be hardpressed not to replace my 290x with one..

Bah, I almost don't want it to be good so I can resist my insatiable urge

it's about on par with an overclocked 980 (1400 core it seems). Not too outrageous if 1) AMD is making those big changes to GCN that were rumored a while ago 2) HBM has a noticeable impact on performance.

If HBM is used, there's the added bonus of HBM using less power than GDDR5, which adds to the efficiency.

It's happened a lot in the past between these two.

Anyway, I could see this being an interim flagship for AMD until they get big Bermuda ready. If that were true, then I bet they release it at 500 dollars, not 300 dollars.

I'm reading this how every one is. 390x can't be only 15% faster then a mid range die from Nvidia. Just look at what 680->780ti did. 55% performance increase http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/MSI/GTX_780_Ti_Gaming/24.html. Now, i don't know how faster the gm200 will be but there is a sure thing it's not only 15% faster.

If AMD release their highest end card and it's only 15% faster then a 980 this means they will have their 390x competing with a card(gm200) that would be well over 20% faster (and it will be competing much as soon as the 390x get released since maxwell is already ready). Heck, their old 290x is trading blows with the 980 as of right now in quite a few game and it's 13 months old, do you think new high end gen cards will be only 15% faster then that? Absurd. If the stacked VRAM is true bandwith will be immense on those cards too, so no bottleneck for high res.

That is all speculation ofc, who knows if it's even real but if their 390x is that fast/slow well it's doom and gloom for amd because their market share will shrink to no end after the gm200 release.
