Join us, as we review the Radeon R9-295 x2 with 8 GB graphics memory. The Radeon R9-295 x2 is a dual-GPU based graphics card that comes with two Hawaii XT GPUs, these two GPU's are fully enabled on all shader processors and run up-to a cool 1018 MHz each. So that's over 12 Billion transistors, 5632 Shader processors and a good 11.5 TFLOPS of compute performance slapped onto a single PCB. Yes, AMD has just released the fastest graphics card in the world!

Kinda similar to Nvidia's thing, $3000 for the price of $2000 GPU's vs $1500 for the price of $1000 worth of GPU's.

Must be expensive to build these giant chips and smush them together lol.

Anyway I think its pretty awesome that they managed to shove 2 full 290x's on a single card. This thing is a beast.

In the review you list two Nvidia drivers. 335.23 and 337.50. Perhaps I missed it but which one was used for the review?
