Please put everything you want to post in one post please. Also, @JasonLavender, what is your budget? Also, a 390 is better than a 970 due to the cost difference and double the VRAM.

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

Read the paragraph on the last page:

$850 isn't a tight budget.

I'm not saying you can switch around parts as you wish. You can, and I encourage you to do so to fit your needs. My list is just for reference, targeting the lowest common denominator, aka price. :)

2 things:

1. R9 390X has similar performance to the 390 and isnt worth the extra money

2. The 390X needs more than 600W

I would recommend a GTX 970 4gb or R9 390 8gb (970 for 1080p and 390 for 1440p as higher vram helps in higher resolution). Also a SSD would be good for ur os or if u want to stick to that budget get an SSHD

The internet says I need a 10GigaWatts PSU. It must be true!

This test is done on an overclocked Core i7 3770k:

Seems like the entire LTT community is completely misinformed about Power Supplies. -_-
