I'm surprised we haven't seen cards with non-reference coolers yet.

Wow an actual decent price!

Wow an actual decent price!

Still a little bit above MSRP, but I think this is as close to the MSRP as it's gonna get this year

Considering 280x is currently going for $399-419, it makes this a pretty hot deal!

Backordered by 3 weeks now.

Shopblt.com has 4-5 different models around $410-420. I purchased two Sapphire's which show an expected delivery from the manufacturer date of 1/4. Each different model shows it's current backorder number vs how many they have incoming. They have hundreds of each incoming every couple of weeks.

I'd hold out for a card with the improved cooling. Even the 290's can outrun the 290X when overclocked.
