well...believe it or not, not only does the COOLING SOLUTION is the reference design but a REFERENCE DESIGN PRODUCT as a whole DOES MEAN that it's EXACTLY the REFERENCE PRODUCT DESIGN that was released by AMD therefore they do use ALL THE SAME PCB, CHOCKES, VRM's, MOSFETS etc.. all they do is put a XFX sticker on the fan and sell the product AS IS...what a scam isnt it?...actualy it's not, they ALL do that.

Haha okay i'm gonna back off this conversation now. You have no clue what you're talking about.

By the way, you're exactly correct. The other guy has no idea what he's talking about. ;)

i believe Sapphire Tech is actualy the manufacturer for AMD reference design (OEM) products if i'm not mistaken...so that means that the XFX R9 295X2 is in fact an AMD designed, Sapphire manufactured and XFX branded/marketed card.

You need a better gpu than that to leverage at 4k. I would go for slower rendering times with a 4690k but get a faster gpu such as a 970. Plus, the 760 is not really a good buy. The 280x is a better option in that price range but it probably does not have enough vram with its 3GB.

This is correct, Sapphire makes the reference cards for AMD.
