MSI Announces Radeon R9 280X Gaming 6 GB
MSI announced the only Radeon R9 280X graphics card out there, with double its standard memory amount. The R9 280 Gaming 6G features 6 GB of GDDR5 memory across the GPU's 384-bit wide memory interface, and clock speeds of 1000 MHz core, 1050 MHz boost, and 6.00 GHz memory. The card features a custom-design PCB with memory chips on both its sides, and the company's Twin Frozr IV cooling solution in its signature Gaming Series livery. The company didn't release pricing or availability details.

but 6GB hmmm.... maybe it would be usefull for mining
I run 3 @ 5760 x 1080. I can certainly see where using more than 4GB vram would be optimal and this only becomes more true with more monitors and higher resolutions.
I am glad to see another 6GB card and I am hoping to see more in the future. A 6GB 290 or 290x would be great as I am badly in need of an upgrade.
