    Ok... so I would like to know what's up with the GCN series gpu's in the mid and upper-mid range areas compared to Nvidia Kepler series?
    Namely, which gpu's from AMD are available (or yet to come)?

    I was wondering because GCN trounces Kepler in OpenCL (compute performance) while delivering pretty much equal gaming performance, and going with Kepler pretty much seems like a downgrade.
