There you have it: The R9 295X2 in all its glory, along with men in suits.

After a whole lot of hints and teasing, AMD has gone out and posted a video in which we get a full, clear view of the new Radeon R9 295X2 graphics card.

We could write you a long story about how amazing the card looks and how it's water cooled (like the rumors predicted), but the best approach is probably for you to just watch the video. Heck, you're probably already watching it.

And that's it. There are still a number of unanswered questions, among which are clock speeds and power consumption, but those will probably be answered very soon.

    I hope they have a decent warranty on it, much like Corsair has on their Hydro series. If a Corsair Hydro leaks and fries your components, they will replace the parts damaged by it.

    Here is hoping they price it decently.

    I'm all for water-cooled gpu, it's just so easy to cool when you throw water at it, but PLEASE, can we get rid of that useless second DVI port and make them single slot friendly?
    For someone with custom watercooling, it's annoying to lose a pci-e slot just because of a useless dvi port.

    It's great that it's liquid cooled, they probably had no choice. AMD has done a great job in the past 6 months.... Nvidia has too! Great time for PC gamers.

    Lol the budget for that ad was the sum of those handcuffs. They are terrible at making advertisements.

    That card is going to be powerful though. I wonder if a dual GK110 card will be able to match it with air cooling.
