    Well, from some of the document slides, it appeared the hardware runs higher resolution without as much penalty, the whole eye-infinity thing. From the benchmarks I saw, it was faster than the 780. However, I don't know if I trust that review site, we will see in a few days though either way.

    From the PCOnline Review it looks like R9 290X is 0%-10% slower than Titan with the exception being Metro Last Light.
    Thats odd, maybe we read different articles.
    PcOnline on 1600P performance
    AMD Radeon R9 290X 1080p performance summary

    R9 290X vs R9 280X: +37%
    R9 290X vs NVIDIA GTX780: +11%
    R9 290X vs NVIDIA GTX TITAN: 1%

    And as for 1080P performance, it was considerably faster in metro and sleeping dogs ,so putting it into "0%" faster to 10% slower is kinda.not true.At least if you base opinion on that slides.
    If you want factually correct statement it is between 18% faster to 10% slower.
