AMD Radeon R9 390 cards appear in 4GB versions in China

[HEXUS]

Retailing at about US$300 equivalent, they are expected to put pressure on the GTX 970.

Looks like it is for Chinese markers only.

970 versus 390 (4gb)........who wins in warming my room?

Shame that its China only. A £200 4Gb model would suit me fine. Keep hoping the 8Gb model will drop some but it (and the 970) are sticking at £230+ and don't appear to be dropping. Hoping some new model releases will shake things up soon.

Unless they bring it in around the 250 USD mark, i don't see why anyone would care.

Time to brush up on my Cantonese.

I'm glad I live somewhere I got the 8Gb model, 4Gb isn't enough with some new titles.

I cant tell, so that website is written in Cantonese rather than Mandarin? It would be a shame to learn the wrong language

But that's simplified Chinese which indicates Mandarin XD sorry buddy!

Cantonese and Mandarin are essentially Chinese, however one Cantonese sticks to traditional Chinese characters and Mandarin(Mainland China) uses simplified Chinese. The only difference is between the two is how words are pronounced. Technically, if you learn either you should be able to read and understand both.

Not something I expected to find out in the Hexus forum

Didn't know about simplified and traditional, always good to find new stuff. Cheers Ogami.
