ASUS Radeon R9-280X DirectCU II TOP review
In this review we take a peek at the Radeon R9-280X from ASUS, they plastered the GPU on a custom PCB, tweaked it and then applied their DirectCUII cooling technology. As such the product should be interesting for many of you. Follow us into this review where we'll look at temperatures, noise, performance, Frame latency and we'll even give Ultra High Definition gaming a go with the hottest game titles on the globe.

Yup NDA lifts the 15th. The 280x while a tweaked 7970Ghz is still sitting above it and the 770 in the majority of games despite the 50mhz clock difference of it's predecessor and is 100$ cheaper than the 770. It should be lower priced in a month as Hilbert said as well. Great for people looking to find some very good value in the 250$-300$ range.
The 7970 despite approaching a full 2 years of age is still one hell of a card. It's admirable really how well it still does considering Titan and the 780. Once OCed the thing is still a monster.
For 1080p/60hz it's great value, especially once the price lowers. Those who favor Nvidia over AMD will also reap the benefit of competition. Though i guess since the 7970 does compete with the 770 you could say there has been competition but in most the 770 edged out by a one to a couple fps, little or not still held the performance crown. I would imagine or think that this would force Nvidia to lower the price of the 770, which is overdue anyhow.

so if I were going to get two 770s there is no point really since this is better and cheaper....

ATTN: AMD asked us to move several AIB reviews towards the 10th. This means this article can't be read by the generic public any longer. However if you are logged into the forums, and then click on the link. You can read it, just for guru's.
