QUOTE(InfoO2 @ Oct 17 2013, 12:04 PM) this should be r9 280 (but its not out yet, since r9 280 is basically the improve version of the tahiti pro, 7950... similiar to r9 280x, the improve version of tahiti xt, 7970) or u can get the r9 270x toxic (which is better compared to the most stock 7950... since this is the improce version of pitcairn xt or the previous 7870) r9 270x toxic review u can read here http://www.legitreviews.com/amd-radeon-r9-...x-review_125979 |

the sapphire r270x range is quite reasonable.. but if for other manufacturer lke asus/giga.msi.. yep its overprice
anyway.. should i crossfire 270x or wait for one r9 280x toxic...crossfire this two card i can get a higher performance compared to single r9 280x toxic... but issues is, one game im playing assassin creed 3 the crossfire profile still not good... anybody know a better way to increase fps using crossfire for ac3?

News
QUOTE AMD's R9 290X will be shown off tomorrow in Montreal while NVIDIA host press. Tomorrow while NVIDIA host many of the biggest names in tech media at an event in Montreal, Canada, AMD will be hosting a smaller event a at the Hilton Bonaventure hotel just down the road. The event will be based around the company's new Radeon R9 290X GPU and is open to the public. AMD says that there is an open door policy for gamers to come in and check out the new GPU and play some games. The Event takes place between 3PM and 8PM. The game of choice will be Bioshock Infinite which will be displayed on 4K monitors. Sources say that AMD will also have systems set up beside the R9 GPU that will be running NVIDIA's GTX 780 as a comparison. Sauce: http://www.tweaktown.com/news/33469/amd-wi...real/index.html Public demo of the 290x tomorrow. Pretty ballsy move by AMD i say but they only compare it with GTX780, maybe not enough to beat Titan? Will it become PR blunder like the Bulldozer? |

hmmmm... Perhaps they didn't want to be compared to the Titan in the first place? I mean, the Titan is quite a niche market. It's a very expensive card and the general public can't dump so much money into a single card anyway. Perhaps as what sai86 said, price point. Am looking forward to this.

Another news and this time for Linux user.
QUOTE AMD cards get an unexpected boost from the Linux 3.12 kernel Phoronix had a very pleasant surprise over the weekend which was apparently also a complete surprise to the AMD Linux driver team; vastly improved GPU performance on the 3.12 kernel. In tests on a dozen cards ranging from the elderly HD3850 to the HD6950 all cards showed at least some improvements and in some cases increases of 50%. Keep your eyes tuned for updates as they work with AMD's Linux team to see where these performance increases originated from and to give Phoronix time to get their hands on new hardware for more testing.

QUOTE(Puteih @ Oct 17 2013, 03:31 PM) price quite right if you ask me. not very expansive/far from 7970 ghz vapor-x.QUOTE(Acid_RuleZz @ Oct 17 2013, 03:44 PM) The price for 280x Toxic is still ok imo, to beat a 280x@1150mhz, you need to overclock HD7950 to around 1250mhz Very very few HD7950 can do that. even 7970ghz has quite difficulties to reach that Core clock i only can do 1230 mhz (BF 4 no problem at all, but dota 2 gimme black screen with audio only 1250mhz psu shutdown itself due to bump up the voltage.
