[THW] Review Samples vs Retail R9290x boards(large differences)

[Erenhardt]

LOL, hearsay from 1 reviewer....you must be right!

These are the words coming from the guy who in 290x (or rather its cooler) review says: Go buy MSI 780 gaming, with 3 nvidia cards(boxes) presented behind him. You think that is AMD saying through him? LOL

So 98.6C in general is of concern (on the board), yet 125C on VRMs isn't of concern. I'd say the broad statement 98.6C is of concern is a little broad without any rationale.

No, it was simply sarcasm due to the misleading point Abwx tried to make with the GTX780Ti.

So what you're saying is that we should not care when one reviewer claims that there is a conspiracy between retail and reviewer parts, right? Like THG and this whole thread?
