QUOTE(terradrive @ May 9 2014, 01:34 PM) Just tried Assasin's Creed 4 Black Flag. Wow, never thought the R9 290 is running below 60fps on max settings and 4x MSAA. Crysis 3, Far Cry 3, Assassin's Creed, Tomb Raider, etc So many games demanding GPU power even on 1080p. wow Which is why I opted for dual R9 290s...unfortunately my CPU... Anyway I ran AC4 on a single GPU, maxed out at 4xMSAA yesterday. I think I running at 60FPS. Can't really confirm the FPS though since I just ran it on another PC with a TV, didnt really install MSI afterburner.

QUOTE(llk @ May 10 2014, 09:10 PM) I think i will just RMA the card  bro if u RMA there 99% u get same problem buddy... cause... say it is design flaw as sapphire forget to add rubber into the screw to tight down their fan.. well i am not Expert or Sifu on here just my humble opinion...  by way is just rattle cause of un secure screw to their heat sink and plastic... so is easy DIY bro QUOTE(llk @ May 10 2014, 09:11 PM) How about if i use rojak brand of the graphic cards? Which 1 better?  rojak brands... ah  need to know brands ma... im sure each brand come with their own OC software and all oc software should work with Gpu just when driver update the OC software become a bit confuse on setting Gpu and that confusion usually cause of crash or fail OC.. this is just my humble perception la...

This issue arise because of the EK block was out of stock locally, ETA unknown, thinking of buying from EK online store but cheaper shipping without tracking no kinda scary and too expensive with tracking  So got to temporary used the fan cooler for some period.

Lol dude you don't have to straight away crossfire mah. Hahaha. But yeah, good luck with the EK Blocks. Eh without tracking is okay one. Used it many times before. But if you feel you want security then no choice lah I guess. Have fun with the TriX.
