I tried put few fans blowing the air to the rear of the GC (r9 290 stock card), it help to reduce few degree celcius

Maybe you guys can try as well

hmm.gif if you look my pic i install another fan below my casing (intake ) and another front.. i assume this what you mean ? i hope with 2 120CM fan should help Temp..

Yeah in some cases you do not experience any issues at all, but there has been one too many cases worldwide of frequent crashes and glitches, to a point where due to dropping sales, bad press and falling shares EA themselves got sued. Really hope they fix the game within the next few months
*
ah okay .. but the sued case is actually a bull*** greedy share holder that don't seem to understand no invest(stock) stay increase for permanent.. only Pyramid skim/Ponzi skim stay internal increase all year tongue.gif(infamous big ponzi skim Century), but have you Experience the game Fail/Crash ? i have not exp it and i dare to say XCOM Enemey unknow have more Crash or partial crash (which i EXP Frequent Crash)

x
i am not saying BF4 is solid crash free... but just strange i hear alot news/ ppl say crash happen.. effect the sale so on.. but not Exp it myself feel like another propaganda to give a company bad name... speacial game that suppose to be firt to be implemented with Mantle Api.. hmm.gif (this is just my 2Cent )

The price difference for those two are really close. But if you want lower power consumption and the ability the run at maximum for longer periods and cooler, get the 280X Toxic. But if you want better overrall performance and speed, and you're willing to lose some max possible clock rates by using powertune to limit temps and fan speed, then get the 290. But I really suggest to your friend to top up a bit more and get a Sapphire 290 Tri X instead.
*
yes i agree.. smile.gif safe up abit get Sapphire TriX R9 290 for RM1.6K is a Steal! for performance/Price !

I have played it for awhile, but too short to notice much. But I have a Battlefield 3/4 platoon and I receive reports from my friends on multiple crashes, ping below 30 feeling like it's 500 ping and lags like hell, and frequent netcode issues where a .50 cal to the face wouldn't kill you but a 9mm bullet to the leg would. But now not so bad. November/Early December was terrible. Even for purchasing I tried 17 times and could not purchase the game still got charged almost 70 bucks. Pissing off.

But as for the share holders, they weren't greedy. EA got too cocky and promised bigger things, and it didn't happen. And basic company law states that the company has TO WORK FOR the shareholders, not for themselves, despite how delusional that sounds now with all the greedy corporations. So if they promise something, they better make damn sure they keep it.

ah okay noted on the crash.. sorry u exp it then.. i guess good luck Buddha like fat ppl more lols so i am lucky.. tongue.gif

x
really ... not Greedy... well i bet they won't win the sued.. EA promise"? EA stat it will Do all it best! to maximize profit for share holder but fair grounds Trade EA cannot control market is free flow.. lols like i say before at end shareholder own Decision make the transaction fund to hold stock with EA, not EA itself... EA as all Corporation will do it utterly it best to make profit.. but at end is all Risk.. and the risk of investment Stock to share holder is fail to make the double... profit.

It's not market free flow dude. EA promised a certain benchmark, like every company they will make a forecast, just like what we used to do back for SPM when we will apply with forecast result. So imagine you are EA, and your parents are the shareholder. You promised 8A's as your Forecast results also 8A's. But in the end SPM only get 2As. Of course your parents will get pissed off and scold you right? Same thing. It's nothing to do with controlling the market. The drop was so bad they actually made losses per share. They promised a great game then ended up being buggy, full of problems and made the wrong headlines. Even some BF4 YouTubers went nuts. Watch this video till the very end. You can skip the first 30-40 seconds or so.
*
hiyoo is not like SPM cannot compare with spm... world Trade market every corporation can make prediction/Market risk to asses it market growth but at end is pure bone prediction/ promise is just a marketing tool to pull it investor to their shareholder stock.. Benchmark forecast cannot be guarantee as it Forecast it break-event into ruling of profit it share to it's shareholder... because game fail to work as it should and reason of this is hard to sell to the market but is not EA fault... Why call forecast E.G la.. u go Lyn seller (his very trusted!) then pick chose what item you want to buy then you pay for it.. then seller have to post the item to buyer... end of story? no what if the postage of item gone missing? and Seller State that item is Super awesome but at end item not deliver cause Lost from UN-controlble by seller(from loss on postage company fail deliver) so Buyer as usual will blame on Seller even so seller state that with proof send item got receipt so on.. imagine all this un happy share holder angry at EA cause the EA Stock fail to produce Promise result.. is not EA fault.. market is free flo as i mean is up to buyer own decision to buy or not( this is just my 2 cent) icon_rolleyes.gif

Hahahah it was just a simple analogy dude. We are pretty much on the same point really. But what I'm saying was that EA could have done a better job, kept it's promise, delay BF4 for 2-3 months, and release a proper functioning game. That would've prevented a lot of the issues really. And I'm mostly saying from the investors point of view. I invested so much in you and I expect results. That's why I used the parent and child for spm analogy. But again, we all have our own views on things. I'm just blaming EA more cuz they have been pissing me off ever since it started it's Origin service.  tongue.gif

haha well okay i Agree to disagree tongue.gif

i use Steam and Origin!! yeah!!! haha i think share holder sore looseR! they should sued them self for been Stupid unable to predict or do research on market of Game making before committed into investment... and hope other ppl make money for their richness.. nod.gif

on normal gaming, it won't really go pass that point unless stressed with insane graphic or really high resolution.
i was mining for whole day  sweat.gif  can't pass 300KH/z otherwise got real noisy. Technically R9 280x can push over 600KH/z hash rate.

mounting additional fan blowing doesn't seems to help one bit though,
I am thinking maybe manufacturer should have gone 3 slot design for bigger heat sink  sweat.gif

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...olimatech+MK+26
RM269, + a pair of Corsair fan let say... RM350  hmm.gif  can consider.

hmm.gif ur mining... cool.. may i ask how ? lols i read alot about it but alot about buying bitcoin less about actually about mining... lols
so nicolasTeoh also sell heatsink/fan cool

That'd why I said its so close there. For them even a 50-100 dollar difference is massive. Here we have to deal with 2-3x that amount. Sigh. But yeah, here the 290 might take top 5 honours, but thats not 100% certainty. The 280X non reference cards are all hovering around 1200-1400 as well. And those run longer at max clocks and cooler.
*
yeah agree.. R9 290X got number 2 in review as best hardware cause only cost $550-600 US dollar back in US, here seller buff it RM2+K so it cover 6% of their monthly shop rent tongue.gif.

but hey you got your R9 290X at RM1.6K so is a bargain Bro ! icon_rolleyes.gif
