XFX R9 295x2?

Go to solution Solved by Aniallation,

Agreed, but Asus 280/x are munted. I would go MSI after sapphire 

 

Yeah I've had problems with Asus 280X as well but it just seems to be isolated to that card and not other AMD ones. 295X2's are literally all the same regardless of vendor, but Sappire has the best customer support and warranty hands down

Hey guys

 

I am looking at buying a XFX R9 295x2. My question is how does XFX stack up against other venders like sapphire, gigabyte and Asus.

 

The reason I ask is because I can buy a XFX card for the local shop down the road (which means I can have one now) but they don't have the other venders cards there. If I want to get one of the other venders I will have to order online which where I live ill have to wait a week or so.

 

Thanks for the help.

no.

 

Sapphire is the brand to get when it comes to AMD. Runners up would be HIS and Asus
