Should have gotten a 490x

RemindMe! 8 days

So is something happening on the 26th??

That date coincides with the Macau event from the 26th to the 29th of May:

Which is still a massive uplift over the 850MHZ the same samples were running at a few months ago. The sample 67DF: C4 is notable as multiple sources confirmed it as a 2304 shader chip.

Yup if 2304 (not confirmed yet, but estimated from the 36CU sisoft display) then 1.26Ghz more or less fits with the 5.5TFLOPs estimate too.

The Macau event is likely for editors and may come with an NDA - public launch is probably at Computex. The difficulty for reviewers is getting anything done at base between Macau and Tapai - for most intents and purposes it's not viable so we won't be seeing real reviews by Computex, only controlled environment testing at most.

That's doesn't sound like Polaris is launching at Computex to me.
I wonder what the "and More" is - Zen info? Vega info?
