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.
