They don't mention the graphical settings used to run the game. And powering 3x4K monitors off a single 4GB card makes me think that the game is not very taxing on the graphics side or that the settings were tunned down quite a bit.

Still impressive, but it needs more context to really judge it.


Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing.

Just noticed that they have the 8GB R9 390 versions in stock here now, but still no benchmarks. The price makes me think that it is lagging a great deal behing the 980Ti in performance.

Do you know if anyone has published any benchmarks yet? I would love to know soon, been waiting for weeks and only formalities stand between me and my new monster rig.

I still haven't seen a review of the new R9 390, sorry. The 390X has been reviewed by many sites already like Guru3D, Overclock3D or Tom's Hardware.

But I would bet that the performance will only be a tinny bit better than the original 290, making it a bit closer to Nvidia's 970. It's better to go for a cheaper  290 while they last and overclock it a little to get the same results (minus the extra 4GB of VRAM).



Please excuse my bad English.
