Actually, no you don't.

780Ti was 15-20% better than 290X at release. It's not consistently 20-30% worse than the same 290X, except in muh goyimworks gaems.
290X users got the last laugh, while 780Ti are left in the corner crying or forced to buy a new card.

So no, you don't get the last laugh, it's actually AMD card owners that do. It may take a while, but AMD cards are always on top at the end, the longevity is something that Nvidia can never top, but mostly because you retards will gobble it up and buy new cards, they don't really need to try.

desu not a good as i wanted it to, but i didn't expect it to blow me away since FO4 is a gameworks title. On ultra open areas stay at 60+, while denser places can dip to the low 40's. Dropping to high settings doesn't seem to have an effect on fps. Im hoping that later patches will help me maintain 50+ fps in on environments for FO4

>>51304374
Yea. Guy at work wamts a machine for gaming and photo editing. I know for photo and video editing an i7 would help him, but he isnt too keen in dropping $1400 for brand new everything. Figure $800 is fair for parts, labor. $140 more if he wants me to go out and get him a non"borrowed" copy of win 7 pro.
>>
>>51304426
Yea, seems like a decent price for what it is, considering it's used.

Even if he does video and photo editing, he likely won't do it at a professional level, that i5 is more than capable of doing what he needs, I believe. The lrice difference for the kind of work he'll probably do, isn't worth it in my opinion.

I assume whatever he's doing is just a part time and nothing too fancy, of course.

it comes from the amazing sound that the reference blower cooler make when it goes above 30% fan speed. green team likes throw this meme just as hard as red throws 3.5. Only difference being that LEL JET ENGINE is only prevalent in the reference cards while 3.5 effects every card.

Very much so. Card cools passively until 60C. I'm able to play games like Dark souls 1, 2, and even older games like Bioshock 1 and 2 at 2560x1440 and the fans never even come on.

Games like FO4, COD and theyll come on. Card doesnt see past 72C usually. Of course can get loud if at 100%fans usage.

Powercolor has decent customer service as well. Overall Im satisfied.

These temps are in a sound dampened fractal R5 case with almost zero airflow too.

Noise and thermals are on par with sapphire Vapor-X. Pcs+ cooler is no slouch.

Do NOT buy xfx anything. They're mediocre overclockers, are usually the slowest stock clocked out of the box, noisiest because the cooler is inefficient with only 2 fans. Core reaches 85C easily and VRM1, the most important on hawaii arch cards is known for reaching 105C+. All while at bone stock out of box settings.

Sapphire and powercolor dont have any of these problems. My ppwercolor 390 benches at 80C under 100% load while overclocked to 1300mhz while at 1.3v with LN2 modded BIOS flashed.
Stock100% load is usually mid 70s

Pic unrelated. My naked 390. Was putting on morpheous cooler but decided against it for now as the pcs+ cooler is just fine.

http://wccftech.com/amd-r9-fury-x-performance-ahead-nvidia-980-ti-latest-drivers/

>At 1440p and after the update we see the 980 ti’s 8% lead shrink to 0% putting it in a dead heat with AMD’s R9 Fury X. We also see the R9 390X now ahead of the GTX 980 by 3% (68/66 x 100) prior to it being 2% behind. We also see AMD’s R9 290X leading Nvidia’s GTX 970 by nearly 9% (62/57 x100), a 9% improvement over the previous standing in which both cards were tied.

More fascinating is how the R9 290X now compares to the GTX 780 Ti. The R9 290X was the flagship from AMD back when it launched in late 2013 for $550 and Nvidia answered back with the $700 GTX 780 Ti which was regarded as the faster card at the time. Today the R9 290X is leading the GTX 780 Ti by 5%, a card which debuted for a 27% price premium. The difference is even more shocking when we look at the R9 290 and the GTX 780. Cards which sold for $400 and $500 respectively for the majority of their lifetimes. The R9 290 now leads the more expensive GTX 780 by 16% (57/49 x100).

With the latest Windows 10 drivers at 4K, the R9 Fury X jumps ahead of the GTX 980 ti by 5% (84/80 x100). The R9 390X secures its position ahead of the GTX 980 as well. And we see the R9 290X as well as the R9 290 this time surpassing the GTX 970 and the GTX 780 Ti. In fact the performance of all AMD graphics cards improves significantly from the previous drivers, including the mid range and even the entry level offerings

ATX, I like good cable management, top mounting fans, and bottom mounting PSU as I find that makes a huge difference in air flow. Would assume most cases that will fit a foot long GPU would also fit my EVO 212 cooler.

Was considering a Fractal R5, but its space is 310mm and the card is 308mm so its a tight fit. Fractal S would fit it easier, but is a bit barren on HDD slots.

Kinda considering Rosewill Thor V2, shit load of fan slots, full tower so its heavy as fuck, but it looks like it would have great air flow. Only hesitation is that I have one of their SD card readers and it kinda sucks.

It should be able to fit the 295x2 in it with ease, so I doubt that would be an issue.

I took a peak at the manual for it and looks like the SSD slide in between, just below the front fan and just above the HDD cage.

Weird, but I suppose it is effective for space.
>>
>>51308611
Ahh, i see.
I don't think I can do that, I've got all 7 fans covering all 6 slots. (2on1 for push/pull aio cooler)

Got a great deal on 1300rpm fans so I went a little crazy.

I do recommend this case though, fractal design makes some beautiful designs, but you'll be looking at the screen, not the box.

>not buying the 8GB 290x

LMAO its like you're trying to be even more of a pleb than buying a 390!
>>
>>51308643
Much appreciated. You convinced me. Case looks really nice and it can get here way faster than the Fractal cases for way less money and fits the needed specs better anyway.
>>
>>51304068
The worst part of this is that this is actually true and all of the guts threads are full of this card.

I just bought one last week and it got here Monday.

Never been so happy with a card purchase in my life. Probly because I went with nvidia just because.

I just got mine, sapphire nitro w/bp, it runs under 65C in fo4 1440p/ultra what is this sorcery? Previous 770 ran 82C', I can't hear it as well. Call me impressed.
I don't like idle temps at 40C' and minimum 300mghz on gpu. Is there a way to lower it?

Fans are not spinning though, so it's much quieter than 770 even at idle.

nah i'm just enjoying my 8gb 290x with a big ass overclock on it

Still on a overclocked HD7970. Pulling a average of 45 frames on ultra in FO4. Some drops here and there (oddly with no relation to the amount of combat our npcs on screen FPS significantly lower in 3rd person) with dips into the lower 30s. I am hoping a driver update fixes the dips our i will need to get another card when AMD's 14nm shit comes out.

17nm. That's a new node I've never heard of before, Anon. Sure you don't mean TSMC's 16nm?
Also, AMD's taping out a entirely new line of GPU's on the 14nm/16nm last I heard Su say.
>>
>>51309336

Get that custom fan curve goin mang. I'm idling at 22-27c both chip and vrm @ 30% fan which is about what my idle fans on my 750ti. Same for temps to boot.
>>
>>51309546
Let's hope TSMC fucks it up again. AMD will go 14nm for everything as I understand it, global foundries goes full 14nm finFET production 2016.

Is there much point getting a 980ti? Should I just get a 290x and spend my shekels on some nice watercooling since it's fun and looks good and when the next gen comes around i'll have a comfy system, or do I just go full rape and buy a 980ti and enjoy rediculous performance, or maybe a Fury X since it will be rebranded as an 8gb card anyway(I like this as it makes me feel less outdated)

I'm getting a 1440p ultrawide in April, I only get paid every 3 months so I'm buying all this shit in January

I have a 6700k

What in the fuck. Why is it so big?
>>
>>51311317
Hell if the furyX was at the price point of a 980 I wouldn't have given it second thought even at 4GB.

I was expecting 390X to be the furyX, right now just doesn't seem worth it since node shrink is coming next year rendering it obsolete with HBM2.

Who knows it might get rebranded, would make for a decent mid range card in 1~2 years time.
>>
>>51308234
Same here, I returned my Powercolor Devil 390x2 because it was a power hungry POS that couldn't even run Crossfire on half of the games in my library.
Got a Gigabyte Waterforce 980 instead and am saving up for another one

Even if they shrink it add hbm2 and 12 billion transistors instead of 6 it's going to be some amazing card.

They sell crap hardware at slightly cheaper prices and their market share shows the percentage of brain dead fucks that fall for the poo in the loo scammers.

You will never simultaneously use over 4gb of vram and play games at acceptable frame rates
If you wanna play the Witcher 3 or GTA V at 4k a 390 won't cut it

Get a 280x

other than that yeah its nice

are there actually people who don't use windowed borderless mode for everything to get the full unrestricted power of their system?

I have a 380 and get like 80-90 fps maxed out on most newer titles whereas it sticks to v sync in fullscreen mode.

There's a free app that even forces any game without the option to do it manually.
>>
>>51313199
what makes it worth the extra 50$?
>>51313245
what does borderless do? makes games run better? i just use it so i can alt tab faster.

Get an h440. Works great and is aesthetic as fuck

>>51313245
>are there actually people who don't use windowed borderless mode for everything to get the full unrestricted power of their system?

Except that's the complete opposite. Borderless also gets triple buffering which adds input lag. You obviously didn't notice it because you're a shitter.

Top card never goes over 70 degrees C at full usage.

Bottom card is usually 10-15 degrees lower.

Witcher runs and looks perferctly fine without gameworks. And the HBAO+ doesnt affect performance badly on AMD cards. only problem is hairworks, but that runs on high settings anyways only on highly overclocked 980 with 60+ FPS, so it's essentially a dealbreaker for cards like the 970 too.

in fallout 4 the gameworks effects decrease performance by the same performance they do on nvidia cards. i just hope AMD will release a driver that improves performance in general (cards dont exactly perform how they should, still absolutely playable). maybe Crimson will fix sth here.

well and arkham knight... well fuck that. was broken, is broken and probably led to the worst PR gameworks could get.
>>
>>51304068
isn't 290x a bit better and costing much less?
