However, ASUS cards tends to be more pricier..

Ya, i read that review already.

Also read review on kitguru,

Look like Sapphire has high capability of overclocking

I checked the price already, price different between these 2 is about RM130, but gain extra 1 year warranty & more nicer & premium card

Overclock capability is depends on the GPU chip, which varies from card to card even the same model might not give the same OC result. My 280X Matrix Platinum can do 1290MHz/7250MHz:

Ya! Rm100+, if me I'll go for ASUS for my next card.. Maybe R9 280X

Ya, i definitely know this fact, so far few reviews i check on web only your card able to reach that.

That is what i think so, cheapest i ask the price is RM1339, someone ask in lowyat shop (he didn't disclosed the shop name) RM1330.

chief reviewer himself!

ASus R9-280X platinum has one hell "Fat" cooler but looks nice

Direct Cu II or Matrix?

As per guru owikh stated price for Matrix : Suggested Retail Price: RM1499
hence, the rm1.3k+ probably is DCU II

Matrix version got LED at the side?

Matrix, the thick card

I got my DirectCUII R9-280X for 1159 from hikari.

wow ... cheaper than viewnet price

^ hikari85 always offer the lowest price so far.

Remember I got my Maximus V Gene from her for RM200 cheaper than any KL reseller. No joke.

ASUS R9-280x, not matrix nor platinum
