AMD Radeon R9 290X to be officially released on October 15th

[Youbetternot]

Release date confirmed, OCTOBER  15th

Finally some concrete information about the launch date came from a leaked slides.

This post will be quite short, don’t expect any final specifications to be shown here. The most reliable specs came from Softpedia right afer GPU14 event, and this is what is considered to be the most valid information available at the moment.

Moving on to launch date. In few days you will be able to pre-order a R9 290X bundle with Battlefield 4.

Well.... The embargo lifts. It would suck if everyone said they only knew the specs, not the date

Wait, if I'm reading that article right (which I'm probably not), people will be able to pre-order the card before official specs are released? 0.o
