That's what the overclocked/custom 280x's are for, like the 280x Toxic @ 1150mhz.
Obviously it is not going to have a lot of headroom left and we know GTX780's overclock very well but they do offer near 780 performance at ~$350.

But yet.
Tell me you bought that 7990 at the super discounted prices going around and were drinking at the time and that power hungry and noisy monster did not matter to you at the time.Quote:
there is nothing spectacular on 290X, it is power hungry and noisy monster with performance of 8 months old Titan, nothing more. But for better price.

happy sacrifice holiday for all muslim members.
i've wanted to sacrifice a 290x but i think 600kg bull is equaly appropriate.:p:
At 1000 dollars, the 7990 had a stupid price for such a late card.
At 800, is was definitely worthy of your consideration if the 7970's weren't so cheap.
At 560 dollars and 8 games, it really has striking performance for the price. Enough to even offset titan, gtx 690, 780 or 290x for that matter because you know the 7990 is going to out perform most of those cards aside from the gtx 690(which is priced at 1 grand anyways).
Its priced to the point where your willing to overlook a lot of flaws. I was tempted even after my horrible experience with 4870x2 and 4890s.
Heck maybe it was AMD plan all along to price it at 1 grand so when the price drop came, the price drop was just that much more dramatic.
But anyways, I am pretty certain out of all the owners of the cards I mentioned above, 7990 owners who got the card for around $560 are going to be the least remorseful after Hawaii product launch.
25% better performance than Titan at 500 dollars with a conservative valuation of the bundle is honestly crazy value. Of course there is cons with crossfire, but man that value is strong.
ha ha i know someone will understand the joke.sacrifice 290x is not destroying card like amd fixer video.i mean i will give away to poor person.
yeah i can use some help i don't know any poor people in my area.if you know a poor person i will send a card to you but are you sure you willing enough to give the card to poor person?free 290x like that yellow ring.probably you will get out card from case everyday and say my precioussss.:)
3 of us are kidding you can't sacrifice an elephant.sheep ram goat cow bull and camel only and of course you can't sacrifice a graphic card but i wanted to you know sacrifice holiday is not about killing animals, it's about helping poor people and about family and relatives and friends.this forum is like family.
Its a noble gesture but in this case, I think you should focus on quantity and not quality.
Your better off giving multiple cheaper graphics cards to poor people as you help more people who really can appreciate it. A person that can afford to buy the newest games to take advantage of the 290x and the CPU to feed it are likely well enough off that they could buy a 290x themselves.
Plus there is the power supply considerations for such a high powered systems.
I understand your sentiment, however all 3 articles you linked were pure speculation on the writers side, at least it seems that way, read them.They write about Radeon 8000 series, they use codenames that never fruited with any products, 8000 series was a OEM rebrand.The "delay" was written about because all editors EXPECTED new chips in the roadmaps,but were faced with the same chips.However roadmaps itself were pretty disappointingly showing,well, what we got.
In other words, when AMD knew that new node wont be available, they looked at their lineup and were pretty much satisfied with what they got.
If you look at this:
http://hothardware.com/newsimages/It...c_roadmap1.jpg
It wil become apparent,that there was a one year shift in both companies, and thats because 20nm is late.
Nvidias whole 7xx lineup is just a rebrands with boosted clocks also.Amd did Ghz editions, they did Boost editions, and introduced tahiti LE and a brand new chip in the 7790,and now hawaii.Its the same really.
So, almost a year ago AMD said their lineup will be stable throughout 2013.And it was.
Guys!!!

Can someone translate some info??? I don't understand why they have 2-3 screens of 3D Mark 11 P & 2 screens of the X (from the image I cannot see if there is an OC or not)
Edit: the only thing i can see clearly is that X5700+ score!
Edit 2: european price (?) http://uptiki.altervista.org/_alterv...gr97mnlrbw.jpg
looks like no OC
P13770
X4580
X5728
9546
4859
the guys on OCN make a good post with good sized images too
http://www.overclock.net/t/1434320/t...lts-from-china
from the post I see there..
- GPU-Z version doesn't read correctly the GPU info
- First benchmarks in 3D Mark 11 are with i7 4770K & GPU stock clocks
-- Performance Score 13K
-- Xtreme Score 4.5K
- When the card OC to 1150 core / 1250 mem (mem in stock really) GPU-Z read's 93? C max temp... but with fan below 50% (silent mode with OC & auto fan maybe?)
- When OC, the card scores 5.7K in the Xtreme Score of 3D Mark 11 (apparently CPU is in stock clock)
Anyone knows the score for 780/Titan on a 4770K (all stock, to make comparisons)
PS: sorry if my english is a little complicated to understand... i'm fighting without my Google Translate master xD
So the 512bit memory doesn't overclock much? Pretty big jump for just GPU clock. This would be a monster with 1500mhz memory overclock.
http://wccftech.com/amd-radeon-r9-29...marks-exposed/
So ,pretty much what we expected, Stock something along the lines of titan,maybe a tad slower.And after OC faster than titan.
A nice surprise is the OCed R290, it beats OCed 780 while being much cheaper.
titan is too overpriced imo. it raised the price bar too much and if amd stops this raise then we should all thank to them.
It will all depend on pricing policy, R9 290X @ US$ 599-649 + R9 290 @ US$ 449-499, then it WILL be a smashing success for AMD (the lower the better). Any $ more expensive, it will basically be a "meh", at least for me. :)
These are my arbitrary numbers, but a $599 290X and $469 290 sounds plenty good, doesn't it ? :D

Never Settle coming back to Rx200 cards

http://www.overclock.net/t/1434404/p...r9-290x-review
Maybe its just me but damn thats unimpressive, if it has any truth to it specially seeing that gtx 780 runnin @ 863 core strong 350 mhz less then most cards can do.
Damn.
This 290X is power hungry and noisy disapointment.
300 Watt for the card under load without overclock!! Holy cow!
