Abstract: Hawaii är ute i det fria i och med flaggskeppskortet Radeon R9 290X och dess Hawaii XT-kärna, men ännu har AMD ytterligare lite mer att bjuda på den här hösten. Kortet vi komme...
AMD has definitely gone on the warpath with the Radeon R9 290 4GB graphics card. Seemingly going straight for the juggular of NVIDIA, the R9 290 is able to perform better than a GeForce GTX 780 for $100 less (which seems like deja vu from last month) whi...

Bringing this review to a close, it's admittedly not very often that we write a negative video card review, especially for a major SKU launch from NVIDIA or AMD. Both companies have competitive analysis teams to do benchmarking and performance comparisons...
Let's see, hmm…what's missing from this review? Oh, right, price! I intentionally didn't tell you the price before so you would have to see how it performed before we got to it. So, what does the AMD R9 290 cost? $399 MSRP. That's right, there is GTX 78...
With an MSRP pricing for R9-290X at EUR 399 excl. VAT and 299 EUR excl VAT for the regular 290 we feel this product is priced really teriffic. It is a very nice price if you need high end performance and want to have 4 GB of memory. Two cards set up in C...
Great Performance, Aggressive Price, Bridgeless CrossFire, Flexible Output Options
Louder Than a GTX 780, Runs Hot
Versus competing NVIDIA-based offerings, the Radeon R9 290 goes toe to toe with the GeForce GTX 780. Throughout our testing, the Radeon R9 290 and GeForce GTX 780 traded victories, with the 290 coming out on top in four tests and the GeForce in three. Wit...
Radeon R9 290 on hinnoiteltu kohtalaisen aggressiivisesti Yhdysvalloissa 399 dollarin verottomalla suositushinnalla ja Suomessa hintataso tulee todennäköisesti olemaan lähellä 400 euroa. NVIDIAn viimeisten hinnanleikkausten jälkeen Radeon R9 290 sijoittuu...
Overall I am very impressed with the R9-290/290X cards that AMD brought to the table. And hey 6.2 Billion transistors baked at a 28nm fabrication is an accomplishment all by itself. The end-result is a product that can compete with the GeForce GTX 780 an...

best performance, excellent power consumption, best price/performance ratio
power consumption
The R9 290 and 290X cards are absolutely identical, except for the GPU, of course. The difference between the 2 GPUs is only in the number of stream processors and texture units. Other than that they are twins.I assume AMD took the not-so-good 290X chips,...
