What R9290?

[Totally-A-Hero]

So i was gonna get the gigabyte but the sale ended so they are al about the same price now, so wich one? Dont say Vapor x that crap is expensive, i dont care how good the cooler is on that card, its overpriced. I also have a blue themed rig.

Just don't get a XFX card. They are cheap because the quality is poor.

Ok thank you. Im starting to think gigabyte, but the MSI has nice backplate..... desicions.

[Held657]

If you go for a red and black colour scheme MSI or ASUS is the way to go.

 

EDIT: Oh and of course you could paint the aluminium cover of the MSI heatsink, but I'm afraid that will void the warranty.

Ohh the powercolor PCS+ Is preety cheap too, also runs preety cool.

[Jamdude]

I'd only recommend the Sapphire Tri-X, avoid the Windforce - it's too loud.

[H4X3R]

tri x or vapor x

[Totally-A-Hero]

Ok the power color PCS+ Runs super cool, one of the coolest and is also the cheapest option, comes with a nice backplate too. Only problem is it is litterally 4 inches thick, and i want to crossfire.....

[Sintezza]

tri x or vapor x

 

This, sapphire tri X or "if you can afford" Vapor X.
