  • Abstract:  Comparisons of two mid-range roughly graphics cards with one high-end VGA are almost always good for some really interesting results. Today we're having a look at what two AMD Radeon R9 270 graphics cards can do against one Radeon R9 290. If you keep in m...

  • Abstract:  Two weeks ago AMD launched its new flagship graphics card, the Radeon R9 290X. A slightly slower version, the Radeon R9 290, finally comes out today. It's cheaper, has fewer active shader units and runs at a lower clock frequency. Originally AMD had p...

  • The technology press is in the privileged position of receiving high-end components before anyone else sees them. Although this sometimes translates to all-night marathons of benchmarking and cramped hands, the trade-off is that most of us can build bleed...

  • Very good performance, Even better value than R9 290X, Overclocks reasonably well
  • Reference card is loud and runs hot, No bundled games
  • The AMD Radeon R9 290 follows in the footsteps of the range-topping 290X by providing a high-quality gaming experience at a palatable cost. And just as the second-rung performance card has historically offered an even better bang-for-buck, the R9 290, pr...

  • AMD Radeon R9 290 4GB Graphics Card Launch ReviewIt has been a busy time of late with AMD graphics card launches… and a little sprinkling of APU goodness with the A10-6790K. On the graphics card front things started with the introduction of something new ...

  • Excellent performance for a single GPU graphics card of its price, CrossFire no longer needs a bridge/connector, Excellent price relative to the competition, 4GB of GDDR5 as standard at its price point
  • Slightly high (relative) power consumption to the GTX Titan, Reference cooler is weak – it does run hot and loud,
  • Like the AMD R9 290X the R9 290 has impressed me immensely, perhaps more so. We've seen performance that is generally better than both the GTX Titan (by a small margin) and consistently better than the GTX 780. The R9 290, at least from our results, only...
