AMD Radeon R9 270 Review: Replacing The Radeon HD 7800s

[Mousemonkey]

Wonder if there'll be any versions with two 6-pin power connectors. They could be great value for overclocking.

So the 7850 and 7870 are being replaced, what a shocker! I'm surprised no one saw this coming.

This just reminds me what a deal I got on my GTX 650Ti Boost. That card is right around all these but it only cost me 119.99 on Amazon. What a deal! I'd have had to spend almost twice this much to get modest improvements. 650Ti Boost is definately the value winner here.

hi I had 2x ATI Radeon R7950-3gb cards in mine when I handed it in to have the cpu fan replaced I got back 2x R9 270 I have no idea why they changed them and im wondering if I just got ripped off or not?

Yes, you got ripped off hard. Demand your cards back.
