R9 290


EK Block



FYI
--------
 
Maybe add some deets around the Temps and decibel improvements to get more eyes on this ad. This is a very decent gpu, I'm no expert but my 290 4gb is pretty close in performance to my 1060 6gb. At R1800 this is a bargain.

I have an aftermarket cooler on my 290 but watercooling must give you some decent headroom for overclocking it hey?

This 290 is faster than my 1060 at only 1100MHz core stock voltage. It can easily oc to 1200 and at that it is almost equal to 1660.

Stock, the core and vrm stay below 55c gaming. Actually, the vrms are cooler by a few degs.
