I built my first PC in December which is at my fathers and I now realize I need another PC for my Mom's house. I plan on building a 6600k build in May or June. I know that Polaris is supposed to come out in around Q2. Will one of the cards released be the 490/X or the equivilent?

The first graphics cards to use a Polaris architecture will be for mobile applications, laptops. There "may" be a entry level card and a possible "enthusiast" card. The later probably costing the same as a Titan X as that's what it's meant to compete with.

If anyone asks you never saw me.
