Well it can nax out pretty much any game at 1080p and even some at 1440p while maintaining well above 60 fps... At $200 USD. This is insane because you get the performance of amds $400-500 cards from last generation at more then half the price. 2 of them at $400 beat 1 Nvidia gtx 1080 at $700. This is insane and a card you should really consider. Also it only draws a ridiculously low 150w of power. Link to comment

In addition, crossfire and sli setups are not recommended. Sure the price for such a gpu is insane and it will aim at the mainstream, which is awesome, but before making any decisions or saying that one is better over another we should wait for the actual non biased benchmarks. I hope it performs just like they claim it to be. Link to comment
