Fake Render of AMD's Radeon R9 390X Make the Rounds on the Internet

So some new 'images' of the AMD Radeon R9 390X have been floating around the Internet. We originally decided not to mail these but and then reverted on that in order to clarify our reason for not doing so. The images are pretty accurate looking and accommodate (mostly) to our leak of a few hours ago. Only problem is - they are completely fake and are substantially a Photoshop recreation of the prototype by an Artist on Chiphell forums. The attempt is impressive, so I decided to give information technology a post regardless.

Artist'southward Concept of Radeon R9 390X making the rounds - misconceived as official images

So how exercise we know the images are fake. Well, here they are in no lodge whatsoever. Firstly, the thread over at Chiphell sourced our ain images and conspicuously mention doing and then. A very senior member of the forum (and a very well known leaker of GPUs), Getwinder, debunked the epitome as an obvious imitation too. Not convinced? Well, can't say I arraign yous, that is a pretty authentic looking shop. Given beneath is an ELA (Assay). This uncomplicated examination compares the dissimilar compression levels in an image, well-nigh allowing the user to spot shopped areas (since they will accept dissimilar compression level than the rest of the image).

R9 390X Artist's Concept Error Level Analysis
The ELR reveals that the document has at-least 3 different pinch layers. The metal texture and the radiator were presumably taken (doctored) from the same photograph whileas the Radeon Logo and the PCI-E accept been photoshopped in succeeding iterations. The PCI-E slot is actually of the Hawaii GPU and the logo has been taken from the Radeon R9 295X2! The edges of the pcb have a blue tint because the cropping was slightly sloppy and left compression errors. Y'all might have noticed that alot of sites have been posting this image as the official renders of the AMD Radeon R9 390X - well now you know why we accept not done so.

The fact of the affair is, the blueprint features might fifty-fifty exist slightly unlike in the retail version. The pictures nosotros leaked are the pictures of the Radeon R9 390X WCE AMD as of right now, which might not be entirely the same artful as the finished production that hits the shelves. Whatever entity claiming of having the terminal product look should actually think twice before going ahead with the purported image. Anyways, I have to admit this was a beautiful peace of piece of work and will most probably be pretty darn close to the last bargain. In whatsoever case it will help us improve visualize the AMD Radeon R9 390X.
