Wow, if this is the R9 390 then we are getting near the launch of something or someone likes to mess with us. To me what I see more than anything is the fact this is a DD edition of the card (Referencing the name of XFX's cooler) and not a stock AIO/Blower because seeing this out well before launch could mean we will see custom versions out the gate this go round.
As far as XFX goes, they have had their ups and downs on the designs of their cooler recently. I believe the 6XXX series was pretty good while the 7XXX series had its share of issues with the VRM cooling and such. But I believe that all the R9 series coolers resolved that issue for the most part from what I have seen. I have a friend who has a pair of the 290 versions and they have been pretty good.

Well judging from the picture this does not look to be an R9 380 mostly because the middle number in the 3XX part has a curve on the left side but not the right. Could be a problem with the picture but this looks more to me to be a 9 than an 8.Looks like this is indeed R9 380, which is supposed to be rebrand of R9 290, which is the same size, have same cooler, have nothing to be developed, just bios flash for the name of the card - all fits.
