Product Photos - MSI Radeon R9-280X TwinFrozr Gaming OC
So the MSI R9 280X is a 3GB version with that popular TwinFrozr revision IV 3X dual-slot cooler. It has a 6 and 8-pin PCI-E PEG power connector.
The 280X is armed with 3GB to to get you a little more leash with resolutions and image quality settings. As such the card has been designed to be a nice match for QHD gaming, up-to 2560x1440. The reality though is that the Radeon R9 280X honestly is little more then a Radeon HD 7970 GHz edition with the same GPU, a few BIOS tweaks and a new cooler slapped on top of it.
Being Radeon HD 7970 GHz (Tahiti XT2/XTL) based also means that the specs are fairly similar, 2048 shader processor running up-to a core frequency of 1 GHz (reference). The 3GB GDDR5 graphics memory runs on a 384-bit wide bus. Honestly I can't report anything new or surprising here other then it might throttle a little higher on the clock frequency and that it has a slightly higher memory band-with.
