Snabbaste singel-GPU-kortet på marknaden, Särskilt kraftfullt i extrema upplösningar, Bättre stöd för Eyefinity, Integrerad ljudprocessor, Konkurrenskraftig prissättning
Hög effektförbrukning, Inte tillräckligt effektiv kylare, Problem med throttling
AMD har faktiskt lyckats med något vi inte riktigt trodde man var kapabla till. Att utveckla en GPU med dagens tillverkningsteknik som ger även Nvidias monsterkrets GK110 och Geforce GTX Titan en riktig fajt i det yttersta prestandaskiktet.Radeon R9 290X...

Bringing this review to a close, going into this launch AMD has been especially excited about the 290X and it's easy to see why. Traditionally AMD has not been able to compete with NVIDIA's big flagship GPUs, and while that hasn't stopped AMD from creatin...
You'll probably notice the high GPU temperature first. It can go up to 95 degrees Celsius, but rest assured 95C is a perfectly safe temperature. There is no technical reason to reduce the target temperature below 95C. By running at 95C, AMD is both maximi...

Ok, you know how this goes. We'll magically compress our test results into a couple of our famous price-performance scatter plots. The performance scores are a geometric mean of the results from all the games we tested. We've converted our 99th-percentil...
Abstract: AMD Radeon R9 290X Crossfire (2-way) review vs GeForce GTX 780The Radeon R9 290X launched this week and received a quite nice vibe in the market. Though a lot of money, price performance wise these cards will be interesting. The R9-290 series are products...
Great Performance, Excellent Feature Set, More Flexible Multi-Monitor Configurations Possible, Quiet and Uber Modes, Aggressive Pricing
Still Somewhat Pricey, High Power Consumption, Pumps Out A Lot Of Heat, Louder Than Competitive GeForces
With that said, while frame rates were competitive, the GeForces still have a couple of advantages in our opinion. The GeForce GTX 780 and Titan were quieter than the Radeon R9 290X, regardless of which mode was used on the Radeon. The GeForces also pumpe...
Fastest single-chip graphics card we've tested, Consistently outpaced Nvidia's GeForce GTX 780—and the $1,000 GTX Titan, at near half the price
Flipping BIOS to “Uber Mode” delivers a bit more performance, but with extra heat and noise
The Radeon R9 290X is stunningly powerful for its $549 price, outpacing both Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 780 and its $1,000 GeForce GTX Titan. The card's “Uber Mode” can squeeze out a few extra frames, too, so long as you don't mind the fan noise. ...
Overall I am very much impressed with the R9-290X cards that AMD brings to the table. And hey 6.2 Billion transistors baked at a 28nm fabrication daaauuumn, that is an accomplishment all by itself. The end-result is a product that can compete with the Ge...

best performance, excellent overclocking, excellent price/performance ratio
