bullcrap.
290 series still is the better choice.
EA had it coming.
you be gpu bound.
so a 290 will perform better....
290 best card in the world.
the new king.
no issue with my 290 and 120hz eyefinity,
can replicate and create the black screen if I raise ram 100mhz.
core does 1155mhz without issues.
131654
hum, 290 weak?
1200mhz+ with ease.
that beats 780 and Titan at more mhz.
best price/performance value card in 15 years.:D
540euro here for 290x
4k resolution 20% better than Titan according to hardocp.
131638
auto turbo within TDP= silent.
Manual no turbo = uber
seems as far I judge what it is.
Once Mantle allows a better utlization a few of current api?s might not be needed to use anymore.
we dont use betamax, vcr or floppy discs anymore or CD or such.
so this might change how the...
doh, developers asked to have this.
AMD gave it to them.
developers not onboard will be paid/bribed by nvidia to not support it.
If I developed a game it be Mantle support out of the box....
no offical launch date, then it cant be postponed.
logic....of the internet.
add Mantle upon that and the beast might be beastier :)

Not likely.
the image says pci-e not either 2.0 or 3.0.
so unless anything says different 2.0 wont have any performance hit with crossfire.
most amd boards are 2.0
Open means no license.
so Nvidia can either support it with hardware, create their own solution, or do something else.
If Mantle does big things for BF4 in december and Maxwell comes out and...
Mantle=Titankiller with Bf4 not good enough?
rebranding and adjusting, so faster at same or similiar prices.
the 7970 seems to get a slight makeover with new pcb
might be a 290 pro they sent out as a X version.
That be fun
world best card from AMD is about to be unviled, all nvidia fans can do is talk about cards a year away.
tragic crowd.
I wait 2 days.
have things to do anyhow ;)
maybe

Lately?
You missed out on the days of MMOG gaming when nvidia couldnt write drivers that remove stuttering on their cards when the ati cards did run just fine.
oh did you bake any cards lately in...
The Matrix outstanding nothing comes close.
