i can wait a week, however it looks like that card would be too much money to the power it is, the 270X will beat it, it's just because it's new technology.

285 sounds like a replacement for the 280 so aimed at the same price point. That is probably why I am starting to see email adverts for bargain 280 cards.

I think I know one person who will want that 285 if it really comes with Star Citizen, as he wants the game anyway and needs to upgrade his graphics to play it

Edit to add: I think I am just interested in the claimed drop from 250W in the 280 to 190W in the 285. I like a quiet machine, and 60W less to get rid of helps quite a bit there. But that is just me
