if only there r big reviewers here in malaysia. 290 non-x will b in the top5 for sure. the price here in RM is only 1500-1550
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 .
x but hey you got your R9 290X at RM1.6K so is a bargain Bro !
