    More than likely, I'll get the 4GB version by early August and planning on a i5-6600K to boot.  This will be my first AMD graphics card.

    I like that there is no DVI and the second slot vent is clear (which would allow for zero-slot multi-GPU via waterblocks), although the provisions for DVI exist on the board if an AID partner were to add it in.


    • What are those two pairs of 8 metal bumps on the other side, is that for a future crossfire tab implementation?
    • Since there is no provision for a second 6-pin power connector, would that mean if an AIB partner added it anyway, then the board is non-reference?

    For Intel processors, 0.122 x TDP = Continuous Amps at 12v [source].
