It is the overclockers uk limmited edition Sapphire Vapor-X 290X 8GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGABYTE edition.

 

I think this card in 4 way crossfire would be 2 295X2s in crossfire.

But enough with the mumbo-jumbo does anybody have this card and if so do you like it.

 

It has three fans, 8gbs, it's blue, and is way cooler than reference 290x

It would be better than 2 R9 295X2s in CFX (if it is able to use all dat VRAM doe) because it has twice the VRAM. 2 295X2s have 4GB effective, that setup has 8GB effective

It might be able to use more VRAM, but not all of it.

Nobody has this card because it's 100% useless as there's not enough bandwidth to effectively update 8GB quickly enough (maybe 6GB) so just save your money and get the normal 4GB version.
