The 290X destroys the Titan. Have fun with your 780 Ti LOL!

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-r9-290x-hawaii-review,3650-35.html

Talk about exaggeration. Even the review made it very subtle saying the 290x takes a minor win "in a number of cases". It doesn't, however, completely top the card, since the Titan beats it at many things too.

I'm guessing your comment was meant for Pemalite, but you certainly made it seem like something that it really isn't at all.


Kicks arse at higher resolutions like 4K

 


Cute how you edited out the instances where it beats titan are in crossfire vs single card :p (I just viewed the source and compared fc3) you can overlay the two graphs and they're identical except the word crossfire in quotations is magically missing from yours :p what is the point? Just to troll? I've yet to find the instance where it beats a titan, by any amount let alone any meaningful amount.

Yeah, the 4K area is the one place it does top the Titan. No arguments there.

Source? Cause everywhere I have looked (after googling for every available review, which isn't many) it doesn't beat it anywhere ... My eyes are broken or perhaps I'm looking at the wrong reviews? Course subjectivity doesn't count so if the majority list it as slower, I think I'll go with that :p

Course this is fanboy ism at its best. Either way it's not by any meaningful amount

Well it still beats it at 1600p as well, and honestly if you are using a Titan for anything less than that, you are wasting money.  My 7970 OC'd still maxes out absolutely every game at 60 FPS in 1080p...

 

It's just my opinion, but even in 1080p it still trades blows for half the price.  I wish I could underline that like 5 more times.


With nearly HALF the vram and coming out more than HALF a year later.... I mean are we lacking a subjective brain or what? Now guess what maxwell is going to do in a few months? A lot more than "compete" or "trade shots"

Time to upgrade from that Titan.


You would be a candidate for biggest idiot on earth lol

I only go by Anandtech, with a spinkle of Linustechtips.
So with that in mind...

Metro 4K res, High Quality: Titan is 1.1fps slower.
Metro 4K res, Low Quality: Titan is  4.9fps slower.
Metro 1440P, High Quality: Titan is 2.6fps slower.
Metro 1080P, Very High Quality: Titan is 5.4fps slower.

Keep in mind, you can generally have a margin of error of around 2%.

Hows about an AMD endorsed Title? Battlefield 3?
4k res, Ultra Quality: Titan is  2.5fps slower.
4k res, Medium Quality: Titan is 0.1fps slower.
1440P, Ultra Quality: Titan is 8.3fps faster.
1080P, Ultra Quality: Titan is 14.6fps faster.

Crysis 3?
4k res, Medium Quality: Titan is 3.2fps faster.
4k res, low quality: Titan is 1.7fps faster.
1440P, High-Quality: Titan is 5.8fps faster.
1080P, High Quality: Titan is 7fps faster.

Another AMD title?
Bioshock Infinite.
4k res, Ultra quality: Titan is 3.4fps faster.
4k res, Medium Quality: Titan is 1.3fps slower.
1440P, Ultra Quality: Titan is 6.6fps faster.
1080P, Ultra quality: Titan is 9.8fps faster.

Not exactly a home run for AMD is it? I ask you... Is that kind of performance delta really worth it to upgrade from Titan to the 290X?

Do keep in mind that the "uber" or "fast" bios is essentially an overclock, it's really not fair to compare unless you also do the same for Titan.
Also, Titan runs cooler and uses less power and is far more silent.
nVidia also offers PhysX and Adaptive V-Sync (You need a 3rd party tool for AMD to have the same functionality.), faster game profile releases for Multi-GPU set-ups.

AMD have also yet to fix the frame latency issues too, it's been how many months?

You forgot those:

Arma III 4k: 7.9

For a card that it goes toe-to-toe with? No thanks. SLI works better. ;)


Nvidia says it's more powerful, right?


Why would anyone upgrade from a Titan? It would be a side-grade. Aka. Waste of money.


Not according to the benchmarks posted in this thread.


Do your own research. They're faked. Those scores with 290 ahead are crossfired

If you think 2-5 fps difference on average is worth $500+ then be my guest.


Moot point anyway - it seems that the RX 290X is more powerful.

It's not a moot point, it's exactly the point.
If you already have a Titan or two, there is zero point in side-grading to AMD.

There's more than a few fps differences from Titan to the 290 according to the benchmarks on page 7.

Faaaaake. I wonder how dumb people will feel when the card launches and mainstream reviews are up? Or are people buying what is being sold here too dumb to realize they're being dumb? Now that's philosophy :p

I listed Bioshock Infinite.
Battlefield 4 isn't released yet, drivers aren't final, wait for release and nVidia and AMD to get a few months of driver tweaking.
Arma 3, needs more CPU than GPU if anything.

And it would be nice if you provided a link and also stated if that's in favor of Titan or the 290X, not to much to ask so I have *some* clue as to what you are talking about and where you get your information from.

Well, looking at benchmarks, it seems that both pale in comparison to the 7990 anyway so, if you're getting something, might as well get the 7990.
