Posted October 1, 2016 So I was browsing GPUs and I found a watercooled R9 390 8gb for $150. Would you go for it? Add in the comments why or why not. Where I am the going rate for the 390 is around $220 stock cooler. The watercooling is a kraken g10 and h55i. The PCB is a G1 gaming editon card.

I might also add it it almost $100 cheaper than other stock 390s in my area. M1 MacBook Air 256/8 | iPhone 13 pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
