Picked up a 290X for £209 yesterday. No buyers remorse here. As much as I am an Nvidia fan, the redeons have the edge with compute performance in DirectX12 due to the architecture problems with Nvidia, while this isn't too important and won't make a big difference with many titles, it makes a MASSIVE difference for VR. Bit of a niche requirement (at this time) but still worth considering. (Smoking hot deal for an 8Gb card)

You got the better GPU for less :stuck_out_tongue:
AMD does seem to be the choice for VR.
Easy2BCheesy to paul.crome
16 Oct 15 #36
Eh? It won't make a difference with VR at all. At the end of the day, it's still processing geometry and textures. DX12 could be different but even then, the evidence so far is hardly conclusive right now. In fact, Valve's Vive demos are running on a GTX 980, while the big VR demos at GDC this year were running on Titan X.

Is there any difference between those card from companies such as Novatech and bough in a brick and mortal shop?

Agree with this, just for the sake of RMA's. Bought a card for ~£250 a while ago (if memory serves it was a 68XX card) and it would artifact constantly even just during idle on Windows and on Debian, they offered me £90 credit on the xfx store AFTER I sent them the card following them saying they'd repair/replace it after testing. On their store the card I bought was more expensive than the retailer i got it from.

You can't force AA either, but it's a well optimized game, rare these days.
MBeeching
15 Oct 15 #29
Yes I do agree, options are good :smiley:
One day I would love to play it 8k with 8x MSAA!

Shame about those textures....

15 Oct 15 #28
I think MGSV needs an AA setting :smile: Aliasing is bad.
MBeeching
15 Oct 15 #27
It's not necessary but can still offer a superior image. On older titles (e.g. L4D2) some MSAA still offers a more natural image. Witcher 3 and GTA are better with a little FXAA, anything higher is not worth the performance hit.

Some titles don't need it at all due to the heavy post-processing. Didn't use any AA on MGS5 or the Battlefront beta despite turning off motion blur (console nonsense).
rev6
15 Oct 15 #26
It really depends on the games. AA isn't as important at that resolution.
Franzkill
15 Oct 15 #25
Hmm I read that full AA isn't really neccesary when going to 4K anyway but I'm not too sure myself. Gotta decide on water cooling options in the meantime :wink: Corsair recommendations?

Quick question: 2 of these in Crossfire allow 4K maxed out? :wink:
rev6 to Franzkill
15 Oct 15 #16
Depends on the game and FPS you want.
Minstadave to Franzkill
15 Oct 15 #21
You won't be able to max AA and effects on all titles but it certainly would be acceptable for 4K.

I use an MSI one with a 650w Antec Truepower Bronze PSU coupled with a 4Ghz i7 2700k and it works fine, just don't overclock it a tonne. I have managed to overclock mine a fair bit and it works with no issues, haven't fiddled with the power limits just in case.

About on par with a 290x, but better thermal headroom (so probably higher OC) and double the VRAM as standard.

Better than a 290x?
BenderRodriguez
15 Oct 15 2 #17
Official TDP figure is around 290w.

http://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/zardon/sapphire-r9-390-nitro-8gb-review/


Mid range i5 will easily draw over 80w when stressed. Add some drives and you're already touching real-world peak efficiency of your 500W PSU.

Is it better than r9 290?
LiamLFC92 to lucyferror
14 Oct 15 1 #2
Yes, it's a rebadged 290 with higher clocks and more vram, just make sure you have a decent power supply to support it.

Performance wise at the same clocks, no, just more VRAM.

Can’t comment on the card, but the game’s not very good :stuck_out_tongue:

You are most likely on the edge of that with not much room for overclocking.

XFX are a Chinese company and the after sales are questionable, I would make sure you buy from places like Amazon

I had an XFX PSU lasted 2 years, then went pop, contacted XFX as they have the warranty after the first year, was just told to go back to seller and let them sort it......

Good Job i purchased it from Amazon as they just gave me a full refund, read on some forums that alot of people wasnt as lucky

Idk why it recommends that. A 500W should suffice as long as you dont pair it with a 9590

550W is enough! I am running the MSI R9 390 8G with 6700k and three drives.
