Was it throttling?
Thermal, or power target? Or both?

Will better boards with proper cooling and an 8pin or 2 6pins get within spitting distance to the 980?

Because they think they can pull an NVidia, turns out they cant.

Probably power, blower cards usually run pretty hot. I've seen some rumors of it gaining ~15% performance from a 5% overclock, but as learned from recent events, one should take rumors about this card with a kilogram of salt. Good thing about all the problems showing up now is AMD's partners already now what to fix.

Yeah, they made a great PCB, unfortunately the rest is crap. I was planning on getting a 490 anyway.

This. It's only 150, a blower with a proper heatsink would have been plenty.
