No mention of clock speeds.

Meaning that they are probably running 1330 or so meaning any old custom 480 will be just as good but not cost silly money.

Edit. Read the click article. Wow, not a bad guess eh? that means the Powercolor Devil is clocked higher and will be faster and probably considerably cheaper @ £255.

I think they are all going to be around the same so buy whatever you like the look of/whatever is cheapest.

At the end of the day Asus can't perform magic tricks to make their cards clock any higher than any other manufacturer, it's all about the lottery.

Which is why Asus should stop focusing on ridiculously large cards that cost so much. It's like a Rolls Royce with a bloody Fiesta engine in it !
