XFX Radeon R9 390X Pictured Some More
 

Ahead of its possible June 16 launch, more pictures of AIB-branded Radeon R9 390X graphics cards are hitting the wires. Here, we have an XFX-branded R9 390X, complete with its box-art. The R9 390X, is expected to be a re-brand of the previous generation R9 290X, with its standard memory amount raised to 8 GB. It's based on the 28 nm "Grenada" silicon. We've seen no evidence pointing at "Grenada" being some sort of an upgrade of "Hawaii" with newer GCN 1.2 stream processors. Perhaps AMD polished its electricals to the extent it could, without changing the silicon. We'll know for sure only next week.

XFX' Radeon R9 390X features a custom air cooling solution, which is taller than the one the company used on its R9 290 series products. It still retains its 2-slot form. The cooler consists of two aluminium fin-stacks, along the edges of seven 8 mm thick copper heat pipes, which draw heat from the GPU at the base. A metal heatspreader conveys heat from the memory chips to the main heatsink; while individual metal heatsinks cool the VRM. The card draws power from a combination of 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connectors. Display outputs include two dual-link DVI, and one each of HDMI 1.4a and DisplayPort 1.2a connectors.
