Good evening MR,

Unfortunately , there has been a big mistake on our stock .
The Sapphire 290X you ordered is neither priced nor officially launched but has unfortunately already been sent to you. We can not help but blame the human factor to both SMS and
Delivery Confirmation gone away .

We have been in contact with the item and instead of stopping the supply and take back the package chosen to "freeze" the package in one day to avoid the risk that the delivery is delayed instead .
Pickup can only take place on Thursday 24th October , the same day that board officially launched. You'll be among the very first , if not the first in the world to get delivery in other words.

rate
AMD has not released what the card should cost , but of course the price will be launched to be what you are paying. The fact that you already paid by card , we will credit the difference.

The information in this email is strictly confidential and may not be distributed further.

Apologize for the incident and hope and believe that you will not circulate information in forums, etc. Are there any questions , please feel free to contact me personally.

As a thank you for understanding , I will send a symbolic gift to you .

Regards
Ceo of Company A
 
nope this is not a US store..

its not mine, a guy posted it in a different language..

i google translated it (lazy)

and removed the name of the person who got the email and the ceo :)

i dont think he'll be getting the gift, since he spread the email :p
 
Midnight 24th est is only 32 hours and 54 minutes away ... I doubt anyone cares at this point, assuming that is all legit up there.
 
This is what they have been saying on IRC for the last few days, the 24th.

They? Yes, all the asian L2N guys from China, Taiwan, Korea and the US who also all have ES cpu's etc when they come out. 5 or 6 or the guys have R9 290 cards and have been benching them on private twitch channels for a handful of days.

I should be ok with Hardocp as long as I don't give out details.

As far as the 24th goes, who knows.
 
looking forward to the reviews...after going back on forth on it I think I'm going to wait for the 20nm cards to come out before upgrading from my GTX 580...plus it'll give me a chance to see how Nvidia responds
 
Made me laugh.......

"freeze the delivery"
"symbolic gift" (I bet they send him two cards)

PSSSSS.....don't tell anybody, ok?

Dung.:eek::eek::eek:
