Sapphire Tri-X R9 390X 8GB Graphics Card Review
Grand Theft Auto V

“Grand Theft Auto V is an open world, an action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. It was released on 17 September 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. An enhanced version of the game was released on 18 November 2014 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and 14 April 2015 for Microsoft Windows. The game is the first main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series since 2008’s Grand Theft Auto IV. Set within the fictional state of San Andreas (based on Southern California), the single-player story follows three criminals and their efforts to commit heists while under pressure from a government agency. The open world design lets players freely roam San Andreas, which includes open countryside and the fictional city of Los Santos (based on Los Angeles).” From Wikipedia.



Again, knock for knock with the GTX 980.









How does this card have a great performance/price ratio if the price is unknown yet?
Kudos for being the first tech site that reviewed the 300 series from AMD ( from what I see).
Because the price isn’t unknown.
I find it intriguing that this seems to be the only review showing any higher memory usage.
I’m beginning to wonder if some 390/X are actually running the old Hawaii core while others are running the *very* slightly updated Grenada (which has 2~5% higher per cycle and about 20~40W lower power draw on the core – which is then used on the RAM and higher clock speeds.).
anything from Sapphire that is not OC AKA Black Screen version?
If you had black screen issue, you probably used ASUS motherboard. I had the same problem and it turned out it was the shitty’s Asus M5A78L-M fault. I had so many problem with this mobo it’s ridiculous. I’ll never take anything else from them.
Did you guys honestly run one compute benchmark and declare Nvidia as the winners? WOW just WOW
When I saw this: GTX970 ROPs: 64 i stopped reading. Gj on your fail
