  • best performance, excellent overclocking, excellent price/performance ratio
  • noise
  • AMD released its new flagship to compete against NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 and to claim the crown for best in gaming. R9 290X beats the GTX 780 in Radeon optimized games and looses in others. But it sets a new level of performance in the $549 price area, hav...

  • Similar performance to the GTX Titan at nearly half the cost a gutsy play that should provoke a response from Nvidia.
  • It's hot enough to remind us of Fermi and it's still priced like a premium card compared to more mainstream Radeons.

  • Blimey Charlie it's been tight hasn't it. When the R9 290X first appeared we were hopeful that it would be a similarly large leap forward that the Kepler GPU provided for nVidia. Relative to the HD7970 it certainly is, with vastly increased performance on...

  • AMD began using the Tahiti GPU in December 2011 for their high-end performance graphics cards and still continue to use it to this day on the new Radeon R9 280X series. This GPU proved to be a thoroughbred workhorse for AMD, but it is getting a little lon...

  • You may have read this evaluation and feel like the AMD Radeon R9 290X isn't quite as fast as you expected at 1600p or 1080p. We think there was a lot of hype surrounding this video card, everyone was hoping it will be a "TITAN killer" at those resolution...
