    Who is this designed for ?!

    2 of those GPUs is barely faster than a single 980Ti. Meh I guess it's for people who specifically need the VRAM for something.

    I'd say that it might be good for computing, since Maxwell is only good for gaming, while GCN can provide some serious computing power. But in that case I'm sure you could find something better, than a dual-GPU card - for example two single GPUs (a cheaper, faster and cooler option). Or maybe just a pro-grade card instead of a gaming one, depending on one's needs.

    This by far is the most power hungry card available since the ASUS GTX 580 SLI MARS II.
    And it's not the 390X version of the GPU, but just the 390.

    No way I could spend this kind of money of a graphics card, but for £500 the performance on offer is not bad at all.

    Really? I've just been looking at a load of reviews and a pair of R9 Hawaii cards seem to be in a different performance league to the GTX980Ti.

    I've been looking for a crossfire review. Where do you get this one?

    Which means it'll probably slaughter any Maxwell card when it comes to DirectX 12 gaming (*cough* Async Compute *cough*).

    We will see. I certainly hope so, because I'm buying R9 390 or R9 390X this month, but I don't expect miracles.

    Considering how hot my MSI 390 gets (enough to heat the room over an hour on some games) this would be like installing a blast furnace :-/

    Can't grumble at the sheer power of it though

    How exactly do you know two of the 390X's are barely faster than a single 980Tits?. What empirical evidence do you have to support your silly claim?.

    To all the naysayers, maxwell and pascal has transpired to be quite the embarrassment since they are completely incapable of supporting Asynchronous Compute. See -

    Looks like this comes with a "free" Razer mouse as well fwiw...

    Perhaps they should have left the mouse out and reined the price in a bit instead!
