AFAIK amd doesn't quote boost clocks, but it does sound better.
That is not how it was presented to us in the briefing.

HTPC card advertised for 4k... but no HDMI 2.0?
According to many Apple naysayers, Anand actually "sold" that site long before last year, it just wasn't announced. I do find it funny his name is still on the site, however.
As for Nano, I guffawed when I saw the price as well. That said, if buying high-end laptop GPUs for the past 7-8 years have taught me anything, you pay for smaller size (for a number of practical and manufactured reasons). Still though, who's going to pay this much when most ITXs fit a 980 ti anyways.
That is not how it was presented to us in the briefing.
I can imagine you are also not impressed because you will need to include a card in the 980ti/Fury X price range reviews that will have almost no customers.
Lots of work for a small viewer base.

BTW why does AMD keep using Intel chips to showcase their products?
I think you guys (media) need to stop labelling these "paper launches". A Launch is when products are available for purchase, this is a product announcement.
So I can actually speak as a potential customer here, since I have a 65" 4K TV and an expensive mITX gaming PC (currently running a mITX R9 285 and an i5 4690K).
I was hoping this would be an interesting alternative, but
1) No HDMI 2.0
and
2) If I am going to spend $650 I'd just get a 980 Ti since I can fit full size cards in my NCASE M1.
This is a confusing product.
It's NOT a midrange card. It is almost a full Fury X.
I can't believe they still plaster "4K" all over their marketing for this, when they got completely owned for that with the Fury X, a faster card. "Brings 4K to the living room!" Maybe they mean your media PC will cost $4,000 if you include this card in the build.
While we are discussing Nano potential performance, and figuring it is about 10% slower than Fury X, let us also remind ourselves where the Fury X actually lines up compared to the competition. For a $649 video card the Fury X cannot come anywhere near the level of performance of a GTX 980 Ti. The Fury X, the one with the 275W TDP only competes with the GTX 980, offering a better experience than the GTX 980, but not near the GTX 980 Ti at the same price.
If the Nano is 10% slower than the Fury X, at best it will be equal to the GTX 980 in gameplay. Keep that in mind when you talk about the Nano costing $649, at the same price as a GTX 980 Ti, the Fury X itself is not competition for the 980 Ti at $649, and the Nano will be even slower than that.

Why do you need a shallow case just because you have a flat screen? I have plenty of room in my entertainment center. This is my setup.Well im also a potential buyer, and as you, it will be in the living room, under the tv, so it does need a solution that fit the tv, so hope the adapter will be good, and the next callange will be to find a case that is not so deep, whats the use for a flatscreentv, if the case is to deep. And well if it is wishper quiet, and the active adapter is good, im buying. I love a challinge build.
