oh man...
think a good idea to do a crossfire with r7-270x.... price is tempting...
but one think i hate bout crossfire.. i dunno the solution to scale assassin creed 3 properly...

Y not check the sapphire toxic... huhuhu

hmm.. interesting read http://www.techpowerup.com/192552/amd-expl...n-xbox-one.html

The score looks good.. but me more interestd with r9 290...hope they hav a toxic version...hehe

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?

well.. if can get 7950 less than rm1k definitely a steal.. but the problem is i dont think u can get that price...

i guess time to crossfire 7950 vapor-x.. hehehe

amazon already can order his r9 290x at usd719
http://www.amazon.com/HIS-Boost-2xDLDVI-D-...ds=hyis+r9+290x
if here maybe around rm2359 to 2599

so.. likely wont get this one... let c how much the r9 290...

Wow... it beats the gtx 780... but the benchmark kinda skewed since they test with amd game title bioshock and tomb raider

Well.. i think nvidia is sucking money... not doing business..
Anyway.. havent been using nvidia... prefer amd since its value for money...
And i notice nvidia card is way overprice here.. to many middle man.. i guess

Anyway..new crossfire performance on 290x...

Very impressive.. scallig between 1.8 to near 2. Previous bf3 which has scaling issues with 7000 series.. but 290x has near 2 scaling.. definitely impressive
But amd quite smart, didnt do scaling test with skyrim... although they did a single card test with this game

Dont think g-sync going to be a technology standArd.. what gsync can do radeonpro and nvidia inpector can do it for free.... but just need to know a bit of tweak

U can capped the frame to 30, 48, 50, 60, 72, 75 depends on ur monitor... and also how powerful ur card...
With this u can reduce the micro-stuter n reduce the screen tearing since the frame rate variance is minimal
For amd radeonpro.. nvidia nvidia inspector... u should play with these two great tweak apps

The problem with vsync... if ur gpu process less than 57fps.. it will pull down to 30fps.. so basically ur gpu resource will be wasted since the addition 27frames will be discarded.. with proper frame capping, ur gpu will limit it frame so the gpu can optimised the frame process.. this will reduce frame variance as well reducing screen tearing
Previously im using 7950.. with metro i cant maintain the 60fps.. so i just capped the frame to 48fps.. smooth gameplay

Yep.. totlly agree with u.. with dynamic vsync / adaptive vsync when ur fps under 59, it wont pull down the frame to 30fps as.as the vsync is disable... however screen tearing still can happen if the frame variance between frame is high

fuiyo... rm2799...
well.. if compared to what nvidia offering... this is reasonable considering hav the free headset...
hopefully when toxic is out the price is rm2199..

suprise that u didnt need to change the voltage.. earlier with my previous 7950, to get higher memory clock, i need to tweak the voltage a bit... if not.. tak leh jalan...

Wow.. look nice... but rm2699 to pricey

so far.. cheapest r9 290x is rm2399 with bf4... powercolour.. but its non issues cause currently all uses amd reference card...

hmm.... if i get it.. i have additional bf4... haiya...
