    I have been looking around for information on the new GPU from AMD coming out this fall (we hope) and I can't seem to find it..... I am talking about the one replacing the 295x that is out now.

    Everything out now is just pure rumors. Nothing to see here, move along.

    I'm no psychic by any means, but most likely the performance side from AMD will be lacking compared to Nvidia. AMD has been atrociously disappointing lately, especially on the mobile gpu front. I'd say don't hold your breath, you might end up dying before it even comes out

    You guys are funny. Nvidia might have the better mobile GPU right now, but I have been caught up in Nvidia's lies more than once starting with the Class Action Lawsuit about 10 years ago because they sold faulty gpu's and then even a year later they did not want to admit that they were lying to people until half the gamers sued them.

    So, I will wait for ATI (AMD) to come out with a next gen GPU because their hardware isn't faulty and they don't lie about it. Even now Nvidia is being sued over the 970's. So enjoy your little anti AMD rant while you can.

    Just wait for Computex during June, if there is any new info we will hear it then. What we know so far is that M385X will be faster than M295X because of higher clocks. There is no info whatsoever about the M390 cards, we don't even know if they will be released with the rest of the 300 series or when nVidia decides to release better GM204 GPUs. In any case we won't know anything until June, and while it's possible there won't be M390 cards, I think the spot is just intentionally left blank for AMD to release something later.
