yup just ordered mine guess will arrive late CNY belum habis , i play mainly on 1080p so i guess 960 is enuf for me for now, just have to wait for upcoming fully baked maxwell's .

No offence to amd owners 290x is certainly a good buy if compared to gtx970 in terms of memory size and brute force , i have used that card keeps getting too hot until rma, bought a 970 nggredia con me 500mb of vram (terus kansel plan to buy higher res monitor), since now stuck at 1080p might just buy a 960.

Anyone messed around with this?

Seems like a CPU hog than GPU.

ooops

Why not just use the GTX 970?
Can tone down the texture settings to avoid using over 3.5GB to the affected games.
At least can hold until the next gen high end comes out.

Of course it is a big CPU hog on DirectX 11, it is used to demonstrate the usefulness of Mantle (and maybe DirectX 12).

Kenapa order lambat...

If you're using a reference version of 290X,indeed.

Don't take it seriously ye AMD fans.

You bought a GTX970 and then you sold it because of the vRAM problem?

If they were to have to do refund,i wonder how big in terms of money will be thrown out..

yeah mang waiting game is awesome

Leadtek stock cooler you have to buy online to get RM749 price. MSI Tiger Edition before CNY Czone stated RM799 promo price in their fb. I don't know if offer still have or not after CNY.
Best bang for buck GTX960 would be Zotac amp edition MSG game at promo price RM799.
Custom cooler twin 90mm fan, exoarmor backplate with MSG painting, Free MSG Ground Zeroes game and 3+2 years warranty.
Lucky I manage to grab it before sold out/end promo price
Heard CyntrixTech will restock Zotac GTX960 AMP early March. But not confirm if still sell at promo price RM799 @ normal price RM949

jual sebelum terlambat

yes was using reference, noise exactly as the video damn , was a good card. 970 cant fulfill my detail desires when i get a bigger monitor

I read latest driver improved the VRAM allocation performance issues.

no software can fix it unless nvidia disables that xtra 500mb of ram and stop access to it

haha i dunno about you... but when i first got Reference R9 290X it Hitting Firestrike score nearly 10K... at 2013 to hit that score at the time was(not easy) .. woo yes Noise was sound like Hair blower.. but it got 2 mode on gpu... Silent/Turbo (aka noisy but won't hit 90C during load or hit 90C+ but noise is less..)

add-on: Sapphire R9 290X TriX RM1.3K (less noise load temp 75c+) and 4GB is 4GB

only thing you should worried is when DX12 is out i heard DX12 tend to Fully utilize the GPU power.. and if fully access vram.. it will be.. interesting to see how DX12 acted with GTX 970 vram situation... but at moment gtx 970 is good Gpu to play on 1080p /1440P heck any game that dun fully over use vram past 3.5GB it should be okay.. and i only see game Shadow of mordor use over 3.5Gb vram but only few user suffer any stutter..

gtx960 is the worst nvidia product with 128bit vram. All nvidia fanboy decided to boycott it. Not sure why you are buying it.

eh i think if your casual gamer that game on 1080p And dun mind set game setting medium, GTX 960 for RM800 is good buy.. or go R9 280X hmm

It is all about spec. 128bit is just pathetic.

4gb is stil better than 3.5gb that i can assure ,

yup im casual, 1080p enuf already im nt benchmark crazy , r9 280x is also superb i was considering 285 since its a newer chip

Luckily you mentioned, cos i didn't research much on the specification.
