The way I think/differentiate between them:

TOXIC = when you don't want to play the overclock lottery/game. Already tested to run stable Factory OC-speed

VAPOR-X = vapor-chamber, better heat transfer, slightly lower temps, useful in our weather or you don't have AC in your room/workstation

DUAL-X = vanilla, want to OC yourself

EDIT:
Wants sauna in your case? Iif your case is not well ventilated may make your motherboard components & CPU hotter = lower OC, instability, etc. (fixed, thanks goldfries)


rm60 difference only bro, fuhget about it and go TOXIC if you want the best out of the box overclocked 280X. Bright orangey-yellow looks cool too. tongue.gif


EDIT: The summary of Anandtech Sapphire 280X Toxic is also good advise
QUOTE
With that said while this isn’t necessarily a head-to-head article between the 280X Toxic and the Asus 280X DirectCU II TOP, it’s a logical comparison we have to make given the fact that both are factory overclocked 280X cards shooting for strong out of the box performance.

For gaming workloads the 280X Toxic cleanly and clearly beats the Asus card here by a meaningful performance amount.

However Asus is absolutely a spoiler here due to their aggressive pricing and their very quiet cooler. Their 280X DCUII TOP can’t match the Toxic, but it’s $40 cheaper and over 5dB quieter.

Consequently if all you want is the fastest 280X on the market then Sapphire’s 280X Toxic is clearly the card to get, otherwise the Asus card is worth a consideration for its better price/performance ratio and cooling performance.

As is almost always the case for factory overclocked cards there is a price to pay for the very fastest card, both in literal cost and in power and acoustics.

I wish I had to buy my new PC this year instead of last year T.T Would have been able to get the 280X but now stuck with 7950 T.T 280X looks so snazzzzzzzy

ahhh well the part about Dual-X is rather misleading.

all the above will make your casing a sauna because they dissipate heat well.

the better the cooling, the more sauna your case is because heat is dissipated faster to the case.

part in bracket for the Dual-X applies to Toxic and Vapor-X

Damn , I have to agree that other 280x cards are pretty meh , but this seems to be the prettiest one yet. Also its a no brainer to choose this between the Vapor X ones. LEDs included , which iinm only high end cards have it , which is pretty cool.

I'm pretty sure that Sapphire will have the same Toxic style for their 290x models since the 270x has it. drool.gif

7950 is still powerful.

I read some review, they said Vapor-X one already overclocked, can't push any much further.

VaporX uses 2x 8pin rather than 6pin+8pin.

as said. OC is all about Lottery. sometimes you get golden, some lemon and some normal chip.
in my case i able to push another 150mhz into core clock on top of that fc oc'ed vapor-x.

i wonder, since the new r9-280x is basically the same 7970, what different is there if i push my 7970 clock to match with r-280x clock?
I juz notice the r-280x vapor-x core clock is juz 50mhz incremental as 7970 vapor-x? shocking.gif

it means, how high can a gpu OC is like buying a lottery. you might even get an unit that you need to DC instead to get it stable. even i give you 3 same gpu r-280x vapor-x, the overclock ability is different among each other.

The back plate is so attractive drool.gif

If not mistaken, the max boost clock for the new 280X Vapor-X's Dual-X's max boost clock is at 1020 MHz, slower then even 7970 GHz Vapor-X's boost clock of 1050 MHz. The only one that really runs higher than the regular 7970 GHz is only 280X Toxic (1150 MHz). biggrin.gif

Edit: saw wrongly, Dual-X is 1020 MHz, Vapor-X is 1070 MHz, Toxic is 1150 MHz. All are max boost clock speeds for Sapphire only.

not really.

there are still couple of brands which can higher than 7970GHz boost, like:
GIGABYTE R9 280X WindForce 3X OC 1100 MHz 1500 MHz Boost Clock: 1150 MHz
HIS R9 280X iPower IceQ X2 Turbo Boost Clock 1000 MHz 1500 MHz Boost Clock: 1050 MHz
MSI R9 280X Gaming OC 1000 MHz 1500 MHz Boost Clock: 1050 MHz
