In having a little trouble finding who made my 290x. Sapphire just told me that I didn't have their card.

My 290x's sticker says amd radeon. It is reference

Anyone know what manufacture uses that sticker?

That looks like a reference card to me.

Can you post a picture of the sticker on the back? You can usually find out who made the card from that.

Ill post some Dropbox links, in having trouble uploading on mobile

MSI cards would have an MSI sticker, unless somebody ripped it off? Nevertheless, all reference 290X are manufacturered by AMD.

Did you buy the card used?
