    Thanks. It's weird that I couldn't find this on the Samsung website.

    You are absolutely right, that IS weird -- although Samsung has been known to be late in updating their site. In light of that I apologize that my response was a bit, well, terse.

    The model is still quite new, but Best Buy is selling it (see link below). Oddly, Best Buy doesn't have any specs on that page. It's as if this model is a big secret, although it's actually sold and delivered. There are reports in the thread that the AMD GPU is not officially released yet, maybe that has something to do with it. But how can they sell it then?!?

    No problem, bro.

    Yeah, I've never seen a product for sale which such hidden specs.

    Samsung online marketing is a joke in the USA.
