I'm just hoping this won't be a paper launch, and that they sell the reference design with the reference sink here. Shame about the mounting holes though.
No paper launch. Initial batch will be with these coolers-

If it goes down after release or a little later that won't be bad but it's gonna be butting heads with 4830/4850 a little on price at this point.

God those coolers look hideous to me....do they even have ram cooling on? or mosfet cooling?
Suppose to have a $20MIR once AIBs get their own designs out.

Yep.
Other than the other cooler exhausting air out the back of the case what is so good about it? We don't know how it performs.
