Tacitus got a reaction from brob in Streacom DA2 build
Thanks - I did look at it, but I didn't feel I was getting a lot more performance for the extra £100 or so it would have cost.

Tacitus reacted to Alex Atkin UK in Where to plug in second CPU fan?
Does the cooler not come with a Y adapter to plug them both into the same fan connector?

You could use a program such as Display Fusion Pro to do this.

Tacitus got a reaction from BruceZGamesGR in About Graphics card.& my build
Exactly.
It'll be a great card, and I'm sure you'll love it.

Tacitus got a reaction from BruceZGamesGR in About Graphics card.& my build
You're welcome.
As someone with 2 290xs in my system I'd make sure of the following before you think about that:-
Noise - the fans spin up fast
Heat - if your room isn't well ventilated have fun sweating it out
Climate - I live in Scotland, where it is cold. Always. I dread to think what that would be like in Greece. Opposite ends of Europe, my friend.
Power - you'll need a good PSU.

Hope it works out for you (I know how much of a pain it can be as a crossfire user).
In future, please quote me so I get a notification if you're replying to something I've posted.
Cheers

Tacitus reacted to comicsansms in How's the 290x holding up these days?
RX 480 is in between the R9 390 and GTX 970.
The R9 390x is a slightly beefed up R9 290x,
The R9 290x is about the same as a R9 390.
None of them are "Upgrades" or worth while upgrades from a R9 290x.

Tacitus got a reaction from Mikjul in Required PSU Wattage for R9 290
Your PSU is fine. Even a good 500W PSU would do. If you were to crossfire then a 750W would be necessary, but they say you need that just in case you're using a bad PSU to cover their own ass.

Tacitus reacted to BOT Edward in Do you consider gaming a sport?
No way! No gaming is a proper sport and neither is Chess IMO.
A sport to me is for promotion of physical activity not shitbuckets and doritos

Tacitus reacted to ShadowCaptain in Fantasy game character race
So basically they are super cliché fantasy races
-
Tacitus got a reaction from PineappleHolidays in GTX 970 vs R9 390 w/ 500w psu?
500W is plenty.
My 2 over clocked 290xs and 4670k use less than 700W from the wall, which means the system is using even less.

This is how you ask people to pick on you.

Tacitus got a reaction from alhot11 in Asus r9 290x and Seasonic S12II Bronze 620w
He has a 620W PSU. It's not the GPU using too much power. I run 290x crossfire on a 750W PSU without issue. I bought a wall power measuring thing, and the entire system has never hit 700W from the wall.

Tacitus reacted to Shoob in gigabyte windforce vs powercolor PCS+
PCS+ is a great cooler. It's probably the best one for 290/290x.

PCS+ beats the Gigabyte card easily.

Tacitus reacted to xAcid9 in I think Sapphire just made the best looking GPU backplate on the market.
