  • Super bang for buck, Decent value for a high, end card, Indistinguishable performance from 290X
  • Still not within the price range of many, Makes AMD look silly to put 290X out first
  • What this all means then is that there is simply zero reason to spend more than this on a graphics card right now, unless you absolutely can't cope with your graphics card running at 93ºC. The non-Ti GTX 780 is still quieter and cooler, with similar perf...

  • As with the R9 290X's launch, it's hard to deny the R9 290's appeal in terms of pure bang for buck, as the card is priced directly between Nvidia's GTX 780 and GTX 770 but consistently produces frame rates closer to those of the more expensive card. The £...

  • The AMD R9 290 is a very powerful graphics card capable of dealing with the latest Direct X 11 titles at both 1600p and Ultra HD 4K resolutions.Both R9 290X and R9 290 have 4GB of GDDR5 memory connected via a broad 512 bit memory interface. The memory is...

  • Excellent for budget gamers looking for a card with a great priceperformance ratio. Supports AMD's nextgen tech like Mantle and True Audio
  • The card runs loud and hot. This impacts performance and might reduce the longterm lifespan of the card

  • Abstract:  AMD R9 290 ha sido presentada como una 290X reducida. En el análisis que os traemos hoy veremos cómo AMD no se esconde al ofrecer las dos ‘Hawaii' con el mismo diseño de referencia, síntoma de que hay más similitudes que diferencias. Habiendo publicado n...
